Finishing, he smiled appreciatively. [color=B20C0C]"Well, I don't know that my problem and this Felix's problem are one in the same causation wise from what you've said, but I do appreciate the thought. I spoke with a magical doctor, I guess you could call him, and he said that my body never adapted to the magic power I'd accumulated over the years. So I'm bare minimum a decade behind the power I wield in terms of being able to withstand it and properly channel it."[/color] Damian resumes walking as he speaks, matching pace with Ria so they could hear each other. [color=B20C0C]"I mean, I don't blame my dad. Even when we faced enemy mages, the Border Control Unit had enough mages in it already that training me to be one seemed excessive, even to me. Hell, I spoke with an old friend of mine a couple months before joining Fenixtear, a Fire Make mage still in the unit, and even he said he'd never seen the issue before. So maybe there's something more going on for me?"[/color] He shrugs, absentmindedly reaching down and scratching Jaƫger behind his ears. [color=B20C0C]"Suppose it's something to investigate, eh?"[/color]
