Backfired
As Rain aimed his hands toward the vast network of roots, he summoned immense torrents of scorching fire, directing them at the roots to incinerate and obliterate the source of this chaos. However, to his astonishment, no signs of damage, scorching, or even a wisp of smoke emerged from the resilient roots. In a confounding turn of events, the roots remained, ignoring the fiery onslaught.
Rather than showing any signs of damage, the pulsating cocoons at the base of the roots began to glow with an even greater intensity. They seemed to absorb and devour the mana-infused flames that Rain unleashed, drawing in the magical energy as if it were sustenance. The mysterious cocoons greedily absorbed the immense magical power, glowing brighter with each surge of mana Rain channeled into them. This peculiar reaction indicated that the cocoons were not merely passive objects but rather active recipients of immense magical energy.
