Although he still preferred shooting fireballs, Adrien liked to practice Air magic. After struggling so much with Water magic, Air magic came easy to him; he found it simple and straightforward - all he had to do was smile and not worry about it, and the spell would cast itself. It was only a matter of having confidence, and expressing it with joy; and he was full of both. Adrien found himself so changed from how he used to be before the apprenticeship, before meeting Val. He was happy, and he knew he was happy; he liked who he had become, and he was grateful to Val for helping him grow - for being at his side as a guide, and as a friend.
