Dumbfounded, Vonn was almost speechless, as though he had lost the ability to form words. He couldn't think straight about how such a concept could exist in this mirrored world.
Cassie, a top-tier mage, had studied ways to draw mana from the surroundings. Vonn was familiar with that fact since she often used him as a tool to learn more about it. But fake magic? That seemed eerily close to that concept.
'Irregular mage—that's what I call myself since exorcism is my source of power. But to call something fake magic? Does that mean it's entirely similar to magic but exists as an equal opposite to it? I could be overthinking, but I hope this is it.'
Hopes began to form within him, his excitement growing more palpable with each passing second. Seeing this, Vienna couldn't help but smirk, radiating pride in what she had to share.
