What? When did that happen?
I wanted to defend myself because I really had no memory of doing whatever trash talk she claimed I did.
…But then again, it did sound like something I would say. I could also faintly recall Ray mentioning a girl who had the innate ability to manipulate weather within a five-meter radius.
Hmmm.
Oh…
Oh, right.
I remembered now! Yes, I did make fun of her!
Right!
…Well. Oops.
Thalia didn't indulge in the melodrama. She summoned a cruciform longsword and raised it up, pointing toward the sky.
That seemed to be some kind of signal between them.
Because, as if on cue, a blinding flash of electric blue tore through the dark clouds the very next moment, and a lightning bolt came hurtling straight down from the swirling tempest above.
But instead of striking me down at the base of the cliff as I was too far out of Moria's range, that arc of raw, high-voltage electricity… slammed directly into my sister.
