"What Phantom Witch?" Stella asked, her confusion deepening.
Everything she had known about Achiku from their previous encounter had been completely different from what Adrian was describing now.
To Stella, Achiku had seemed gentle, calm, and almost motherly.
There had been nothing frightening about her, and certainly nothing that had made Stella believe she was dealing with someone dangerous.
Adrian shook his head several times as though trying to clear the thoughts raging through his mind.
His expression remained serious as he looked at Stella.
"Babe, I am sure of what I am saying," he said firmly. "She is a Phantom Witch."
Stella studied his face for a moment before a soft smile appeared on her lips.
She slowly stretched her hand forward. Her eyes became focused, and her heart steadied as she began to cast a spell.
A strange energy immediately gathered around her fingers, shimmering faintly in the air.
