>>5704092Good thing Magos had you prepare a spell, because the next thing you know, Jacquard throws his cobwebs at Millie! Quickly you stand between the magical assault and Millie, shielding her. Your accumulated mana is still not up to full power after what happened at Dawn Chapel, but it's enough to cast four Fingers and yank Jacquard's web attack apart. With Magos helping you recycle mana from the attack, you manage to turn back the spell to a flabbergasted Jacquard - he thought you were easy prey. Within an instant he is paralyzed in his own web.
Taking advantage of his lapse in concentration, you had Magos gain more ambient mana, and recycle the mana for the four Fingers into a new projection: Boot! It slams into Jacquard, and smashes through the rail bannisters beside the stairs, Jacquard squarely hitting the first floor with a resounding crack. Trickster whistles and remarks that it's a good hit.
