"Light Release: Orb of Radiance!"
A small orb of light slowly floated out from Aotu Taro's hands, suddenly shooting skyward. Like a miniature sun, it illuminated the surrounding area.
"Seventeen minutes have passed since the fireworks signal. The earlier sounds of battle were intense—it seems that Shuki's team has encountered some serious trouble. Let's pick up the pace."
