As Leech traveled with the Soldiers from Green Forest Castle, he suddenly froze.
He had reconnected with Aina!
Before the connection broke, the last thing he'd seen was a long-bearded Fishman. Upon reconnecting with Aina, he saw that same Fishman again. Only this time, instead of casting Magic, it was being crushed under Aina's foot.
"How did it go?" Leech asked Aina via his Spiritual Power.
This was a form of direct spiritual communication that didn't require words. As such, it couldn't convey complex ideas, only the general gist of his meaning.
Through their spiritual link, Leech got the gist of what happened. After the long-bearded Fishman cast its bizarre Magic, she had entered a strange state. But unlike Leech, she hadn't felt any significant fear and had recovered quickly.
During that brief time, Aina had wiped out the Fishman nest.
She had only spared the distinct, long-bearded Fishman.
'Good job.' Leech was quite satisfied.
