"…what?"
That word involuntarily escaped Evan's lips, and the reactions of the two who heard it varied.
Belphont smirked, silently mouthing the words 'got you', while Kayla's hand flew over her mouth. She turned around with her eyes trembling, and her expression was one of someone who just realised something.

"…you aren't the real Great Lightning Spirit?"
[No, Master I am!]
"No, she's not."
[SHUT UP!!!]
Kayla turned around and blasted the Illusion Clone who interrupted her to bits, but a dozen more manifested a second later, all of them laughing as they stared at Kayla's anxious expression.
[Master, don't listen to his nonsense. He's trying to mislead you!]
