Previously:

The day of the practical exae arena created by the Replica Dungeon Nelaira tricks Deora into attacking the Rroda brothers, and Deora ends up pursuing Kiel with a barrage of fireballs Kiel runs away, dodging the fireballs, however, Deora es to hit him with an explosive airball Kiel loses his consciousness and re house as a child After waking up he gets into a life and death situation that makes him overcome his fear of fire and launch a counter attack on Deora

A glass dagger enlarged in Deora’s vision, and he forcefully twisted his upper body to dodge the fatal blow ai for his neck

His twirl ale the fatal blow by a hair’s width

Deora hurriedly jumped back, too disturbed by the close call to even remember to curse

Kiel had intentionally filled his earth dome with mana to confuse Deora’s mana sense, so he wouldn’t be able to tell that Kiel was no longer within the do an underground tunnel towards Deora He even chose the perfect moment to launch a sneak attack, all for the sake of this all or nothing shot Even Deora’s explosions were used to cover up the tre

Unfortunately, although his attack could be said to be flawless, Deora’s reaction time was the cream of the crop Before his mind could catch up with the events, his body had already reflexively dodged the blow

Deora rubbed his back with a dark face Fury burned brightly inside his yellow eyes “Congratulations! You’ve successfully pissedthat his attack had failed to kill Deora, Kiel didn’t linger inside Deora’s high-teo for Elaru’sartifact, accelerating to the best of his ability

Deora gave chase i towards Kiel like a rabid bloodhound in pursuit of his nextht about was not letting Kiel escape his heat field

He would destroy hiht after

Both men left dust in their wake as they chased each other

Deora’s eyes were getting more and more bloodshot, thetheirout fireballs, concentrating his full power into his heat field, wanting nothing more than to just melt Kiel where he stood

Kiel didn’t look any better than Deora, his face was pale, and his each and every movement caused hiular sweat, for the te spell was struggling like a s rapidly overpowered by Deora’s heat field

Just a bit more!

He was al so fast that he couldn’t even keep his eyes open against the violent air currents hitting his face His protective goggles hadhis vision instead of protecting his eyes

He could al to overco but futile effort

A little pechuh couldn’t escape the jaws of a lupax All it could do was delay the inevitable

Still, he persevered, and he ran

He ran so fast So very fast

Yet he was not fast enough

His originally pale flesh got redder by the second

Stea hi second seemed to last forever

20 htly it had turned stiff

The reht fire, his thin, already charred hair started curling up fro his face felt like a strea water

Yet he still refused to screaive up

He could almost touch it, he was al with his arrasping towards the egg without any hesitation, even though he knew that the surface of thewas probably even hotter than theit would bring hi that touching that little egg would probably turn his hands unusable

Still, he felt no fear of pain

On the contrary, he felt grateful

Grateful that the egg didn’t melt

1on the egg that he needed to twist, however, he couldn’t see a thing

His vision had already turned dark His whole body had already turned stiff

His acceleration

So close, yet that distance seemed infinitely far away

Each step, each inch closer took an eternity of agony

The particles of sand slipped through the hourglass slowly, like floating snowflakes

And then…

Finally!

Kiel’s fingers touched the cool surface of the egg

He grasped it with both hands, feeling for the ic to rotate it

He rotated it arduously, et position

But then…

Abruptly…

His er

In fact, his entire body had stopped e

He stood frozen on the spot, his hand touching his cheek

Only now did the stinging pain on his face register

Deora’s gaze landed on the red blood staining his fingers

A cut…?

His eyes glazed over

There were originally two fingers, but they suddenly turned into four and then six

The sord Deora intended to shout got stuck in his throat

The world started spinning, and Deora lost his balance His body felt heavy, he felt hi

Thump

A cloud of dust rose into the air when Deora’s body hit the ground

The dagger Kiel had thrown earlier in his sneak attack on Deora didn’t raze his cheek

Kiel’s intention was never to kill hile poisoned cut

Yet, who knew that he would barely h for the poison to take effect?

No wonder Deora Thayn ended up as an assistant Muni professor His fire and teic was state of the art

Without Deora’s conscious control, hisheat in the air around Kiel gradually returned to norling cooling spell had already e a comeback and shi+eld Kiel from the heat Without the heat field to suppress it, it had no trouble cooling down Kiel’s pink flesh

Kiel’s head rigidly turned back towards Deora, and then, he let out a suffocating breath of relief
