Chapter 197: Diving into the Chrysalis (2/2)

Explanations were given for why Rella could have just left this post acting as a conduit for the bell

The sparring sessions were teh intervals that Rella's absence here was not felt On top of that, it was actually plausible for Rella to have har her arnature attack involved channeling lightning as her father did

However, unlike her father's divine lightning which shone a brilliant hue of bright white, her lightning was pitch black and held the property of disintegrating whatever it struck
