However, he wasn't scared at all despite being with a woman who had attempted to kill him and his guild master a week or so ago. Masami still continued to stare at the tip of the finger that swirled around the air, playing with fire, a rule the children's parents would implement so that nobody would get hurt. After a while, the ring of fire finally twisted itself into a thread-like substance.
"Miss Neru...!" before she could look to check up on the boy's progress, the fire disappeared, as if it wasn't there in the first place.
"Ah, oh..." the boy frowned in disappointment, but immediately forced a smile right after, scratching his nape in response as a single hand held unto all of the stacked items, all of those without staggering, not one bit. When the woman saw this, her eyes widened.
"Masami, try throwing that thread on me." an order as if she knew exactly what was happening, she made a step back and nodded. With confusion, Masami followed nevertheless, and spun the same finger into the air, the fire twisting into a thread-like substance, quicker than before due to finally having a target. Slightly, he was scared that she might get hurt, so he looked away upon tapping the air in Neru's direction. When the thread was finally wrapped around her neck, as if choking her, he did not know what to do next. Before he would panic, the woman held the thread down, lightly tugging it to catch the blond's attention.
"Look at me." she mentioned, and Masami did.
"Relax!" she smiled this time, along with a giggle, and it was effective. When Masami relaxed, the thread disappeared, but what seemed to be a red tattoo had stamped itself upon the woman's cheek.
