Ailan's voice was filled with a sense of relief and joy, as her verdant figure drifted from deep within the workshop.
But as she approached Ron, her keen natural perception made her pause slightly.
"The aura on your body..."
The Tree Spirit's voice carried a clear sense of unease:
"It feels very strange... like a mark left by some ancient, powerful being..."
In the Crystal Pool, Dale also sensed this anomaly.
The Sea Demon Girl elegantly stood up from the water, her silver hair flowing like moonlight under the Magic Crystal Lamp.
Worry flickered in her golden eyes:
"Master, that aura reminds me of the terrifying entities from those ancient deep-sea myths... Did something happen to you?"
Faced with the concerned inquiries of his two partners, Ron felt a warmth surge in his heart.
"I did encounter some... special beings,"
he reassured the two "people":
"But it's all resolved now, and in fact, this encounter turned out to be a good thing for me."
