Adlin tore her gaze away from the rather bewitching light to focus on the newcomer. "Good morning professor Shaltaea," she responded before abruptly darting towards the light because for some reason she thought she could outsmart it. Unfortunately, it was ready and receded just the same. "Stupid thing," she uttered to herself, trying to act casual like that hadn't just happened.CoreyXIX said:
After a couple moments the lich had fully realized what he had just witnessed and the likely cause of it. Despite having his face hidden behind his mask he fought hard to keep from breaking out into a grin, if nothing else so he wouldn't laugh. "I thought chasing phantoms was my job, Professor Adlin." he says in a somewhat joking tone, a change from the usual neutral tones he normally used when speaking with most eople.Kazehana said:
Adlin huffed, straightening her outfit. "I can do whatever I please," she retorted, giving him a look. She wasn't going to admit that she had no idea that it was a spirit, mainly because that would just give him more ammunition against her. And she wanted to seem serious and formidable, not clumsy and juvenile.CoreyXIX said:
The lich just shrugs to the young woman's reply. "Fine, suit yourself. If you wish to not butt your head into a brick during your investigations do let me or my colleague know." he replies. Well, at least she was trying to play it cool.Kazehana said:
She frowned, mainly because she knew he was right. "Well if you're so great, you can catch it," she challenged, not expecting him to be able to do much. at this, the spirit slowly diffused across the wall so as to avoid the situation altogether. Adlin looked over, a bit astonished. "Well I doubt you could now... Doesn't it require a lot of energy to do anyway?"CoreyXIX said:

If it was what he thought it was, it should be easy. He pulls out the stone from earlier and unleashes the same powerful binding spell from earlier, nightmarish tendrils and everything as their harsh green glow lash out to grab at the light to drag it back into the stone. If it was Feu, then the stone was already attuned and may have an easier time doing so.Kazehana said:
Adlin was shocked for a moment, then went back to her resentful demeanor. "Whatever. Just luck anyways," she said, turning around to get herself some coffee. It would both be a nice distraction and a way to wake her up. No need to reveal how astonished she was at his abilities.CoreyXIX said:
"Actually no, I caught it earlier and let it go. It's spirit was already attuned to that stone." Shaltaea says, not realizing she was trying to save face with that remark. Honestly, he wasn't sure why this thing was back again. He looks at the stone with the spirit in it. "Sorry, little one. Just had to get a point across." the lich says as he puts the stone on a nearby table.Kazehana said:
Adlin was relieved to hear that he wasn't that good, but it still bothered her that he caught it twice by now. "Oh? And I assume you had troubles the first time?" she inquired, hoping to hear about his follies.CoreyXIX said:
Well, this would be a good learning experience for her. He decides to share a bit of what happened. "I had some, yes. This particular will-o'-the-wisp is rather special." Prof. Shaltaea starts. "From what I have experienced it is resistant to magic and has some capacity to manipulate the mind. Nasty work, really." he explains to her, ignoring the stone on the table.Kazehana said:
Emily's eyes changed to full blood red as a gust of cold winds swept her into the air. She used her staff to create spikes of ice and throw them around the forest, just in case, as she came up beside Senki. "Top that!" she said with a smirk in her evilish grin.Mitchs98 said:
"Interesting," she said, taking a sip of her coffee. "So what you're saying is, you believe it's special? What are you going to do with it?" she asked. It was plausible to think he would do something mainly because he left it captured. But then again, why would he need to capture it twice? It made no sense to her.CoreyXIX said:
"I don't know yet." he simply replies to that questions. It was a good one, who knows what he could find in this experience. It was then he heard Draconus' news.Kazehana said:
"I assume we have some sort of contingency, but I'm guessing since we're having a meeting we need an actual plan about this. Have you any thoughts on where to begin, Draconus?" Prof. Shaltaea asks, caring more about the task at hand than anybody's feelings and emotions on the subject. "I'm guessing we shouldn't mention it to the students yet."
