Mike closed his eyes, unwilling to believe that the ones he grew accustomed to and actually liked had that kind of personality. He closed his eyes, focusing on what to say next. He had to make them fight. As Ernie said, Aurora must have already prepared an antidote so it was fine for Stephan to use his mana, but he didn't want to risk it. On the other hand, Aurora believed that her emotional stability came first. In other words, she needed to stay out of trouble.
Mike's eyes hot open as a sharp pain erupted from his back. He tried to check it with his hands but Aurora already got there. Actually, something hit him but he couldn't see what it was. However, Aurora seemed to be able to do it. Her eyes widened at what was before her.
