Amidst the laughter and conversations of the group, Aimee's setup was quietly completed. An illusion the size of a Volcano Dragon replaced its position, while the Volcano Dragon faded into the color of the mud, becoming completely invisible to Chun.
To everyone's surprise, the illusion could actually pull the cart like the Volcano Dragon. But seeing Aimee sweating and gritting her teeth, it was clear that this corporeal illusion was immensely taxing on her mana.
This was the first time Chun saw her being so serious and found her incredibly captivating! Honestly, just using this move of creating a corporeal illusion, even if facing a stronger water monster, could ensure escape if not victory. This truly was a life-saving technique. Could I perhaps learn this from her in the future?
In any case, the cart continued on its way amidst cheerful chatter, while the Volcano Dragon lay in ambush along the path of the pursuers...
