"What am I supposed to do?" Adam asked, looking up, dissolving into a calm stream of particles.
Heret smiled weakly.
"Nothing serious, at least for starters. You need to release the energy, but slowly and smoothly."
"Hmm?" Adam raised an eyebrow in confusion. "That would allow me to absorb the surrounding energy like a monster?
In response, he shook his head. "Of course not. If Phantoms learned to absorb energy from the environment, then you would be simply invincible. In that case, you should be called monsters, not us. However, despite what I said, you're just as right.
"This will only work here. I'm not talking about the Magma Plateau, but the dark field. This place helped me take one step forward. It's not enough to counter Arnoth in a 1 vs 1 fight, but it's better than nothing."
With a thoughtful look, Adam nodded and moved into action.
Slowly, according to Heret's instructions, he released some energy. A thin white layer covered his body, quietly spreading further.
