Blue: W-was that....Psynergy!?
Lilia: Psynergy? What's Psynergy?
Blue: Psychic Energy, or Psynergy for short, is the ability to conjure sorcerous effects based on the elements and fueled by the spiritual power of the person's mind.
Lilia: A person's...mind?
Blue: Yeah, unlike me, who uses the energy of the body to cast magic instead.
Lilia: That sounds pretty cool!
Blue: It is. But only a particular people can make use of Psynergy. They're known as Adepts.
Lilia: So I guess Collin must be one of these Adepts, huh?
Blue: Yeah. And since he used a Plasma spell, he must belong to the Jupiter Alignment. Their psynergy is based on the powers of wind and lightning.
ILS: Collin! Is...is this all true?
Collin: Yes..it is...
Rachel: But then...how come you didn't tell us there you were a Jupiter Adept? Why did you keep it from us?
Collin: Because I...I was afraid of fighting. I'm not as strong and courageous as the rest of you. I was just a weakling...
ILS: Collin...
Collin: But now...now it's my turn to fight! Now's my chance to contribute to our cause! You guys go on ahead. I'll take care of things here.
Jawo: Come on, Collin. You can't really mean to take him on by yourself. That's just crazy!
Collin: We don't have a choice! I'm the only one among us who can fight ILX without having my attacks read and countered. Only I can do this!
Jawo: But...
Blue: You heard him. We need to move on.
Lilia: But Blue, what if something happens to him!?
Blue: I know...he's inexperienced. But like he said, he's the only one who can fight ILX on fair ground. If we try to help, we'll only get in the way.
ILS: Mmn, I know what you mean, but...I still don't like this.
Blue: I don't either, but this is for the best. Collin, we'll leave it to you.
Collin: Thanks, Blue. And don't worry, I'll be sure to catch up later.
Blue: Heh, you better. Now let's go. We still have a date with the Official.
*The group heads to the elevator lift, but ILX steps in front of them to stop their advance*
Blue: Ergh...
ILX: You're not going anywhere, I'm afraid...
Collin: Not if I have anything to say about it! (Blunt!!)
*Collin casts a blunt spell. A sword of magic appears in front of ILX and shatters, signifying a decrease in strength*
ILX: Oofgh! W-what is the meaning of this? Why do I feel so...weak...?
Collin: Hurry, guys! Get out of here while you can!
Blue: Okay, thanks!
*The group boards the elevator and Blue sets it to go up to the 20th floor*
Jawo: Don't you die on us, Collin! You hear!?
*Collin smiles and waves as the elevator door closes shut and sets about its destination. Once it's out of sight, he turns and faces ILX once more*
Collin: Hm!
ILX: Ah, child. I must say, that is some impressive power you wield. How long have you been praticing its use?
Collin: Uhm...only a month, I suppose.
ILX: Only a month, you say? But you handle it so well! Tell me, lad. How old are you?
Collin: I'm 12.
ILX: Oh, for one so young, you are quite formidable. But I must ask, what makes you think that you, a novice hunter with no rank to speak of, can defeat me, a S rank hunter?
Collin: I don't know. But I do know that for the sake of my friends, I will have to try!
ILX: I admire your strong spirit. But it will take much more than just being able to avoid my ability to best me. Are you ready!?
Collin: I am!
ILX: Then have at you! Well shall see who's abilities trump who's!
