Kapitel 327: Final Preparations (2)

My sight snapped to Asher, only to see an expression of disappointment on his face.

"I did it!" Rina shouted at the same. She looked at me with large eyes, filled with pure bliss as she raised her hand to her face. Lightning crackled, and the sound of thunder echoed once more. "I did it! I can feel it!" She jumped up and down and clapped. 

With each clap, lightning flashed between her palms.

"I'll stop," I began to talk, but Rina was quick to shake her head. "No, keep your flames going!" She implored me. "Asher was so close; I could almost feel his power too."

I furrowed my brows but nodded. Why would he say that? 

"I'll help out too," Rina suggested. "Kai, can you make your flames stronger?"
