The Mask

Whoosh...

I could feel the alien Mana slowly invading my body. The energy surged through my veins, electrifying every cell in my being.

I tried to resist it, but Rose was pumping it without a stop.

'Fuck...'

Cursing under my breath, I tried to get away from her hug, but I couldn't move my body.

Swish...

I was paralyzed, trapped in her embrace as the alien Mana continued to course through me.

"Aiden?"

I could hear Rose whispering, however, I couldn't hear her clearly due to the overwhelming rush of energy pulsating in my ears.

'Huh?'

Suddenly, I noticed that I couldn't feel any pain. Although Rose's Mana was now entering my body, I didn't even feel discomfort...

It was refreshing even.

'No fucking way!?'

I could feel my Mana merging with the alien Mana, creating a powerful synergy, unlike anything I had ever experienced before.

Rose was transferring her Mana to me!
