Exhilarating

Marla relived the bittersweet memories of the past as she listened to Eren's words.

"Marie has become an impressive potion maker," Eren said with a voice laced with honesty. "Your sister oversees my best-selling priority potion batches and leads the research team at the White Raven Guild. Without her, our potion-making department would suffer greatly."

Eren smiled, presenting the facts before Marla, who struggled to digest the newfound realization. She had believed Marie had wasted her life as a cultist, but it seemed Marla had misjudged her half-sister.

"Arrrgh! I despise being proven wrong. I don't know how I'll face that stubbornness sister of mine when we meet," Marla vented her frustration, her fists crackling with elemental manifestations.
