Sunny shuddered, thinking that he was caught on fire... but then froze. Somehow, it did not seem like the white radiance was harming him at all. It just enveloped his body, making his skin shine with a suffused glow.
However, it was also not healing him.

Sunny stared at Nephis with astonishment and asked in a low voice:
"What… what is happening?"
From the confused look on her face, she did not do whatever it was that had happened on purpose. Changing Star took an involuntary step back, removing her cool palm from his cheek, and briefly glanced at her hand.
The white glow was gone from it.
"I... I don't know."
Sunny opened his eyes wide and looked down on his shining body. Very strangely, he felt…
Empowered.
