While Marcus and Princess Celeste were enjoying their moment together, Princess Phoenix made quick work of the freshly spawned Red Maple Flower Demon King. She struck it with Gathering, and a warm, gentle fire energy suddenly surged out of the monster.
It was completely different from the Phoenix's usual flames. Her fire was destructive, violent, and domineering, but this flame carried a strange sense of vitality, as though it were alive and brimming with life.
Marcus and Celeste both turned toward her. A ball of red mist had appeared in Princess Phoenix's palm, glowing with a soft, warm light.
"Stone! True Flame Cloud! My sister got a True Flame Cloud!"
Celeste immediately spread her Holy Light Wings and flew out of Marcus's embrace.
