57 Piercing Fire (2/2)
A long slithery tongue came out from his huge grinning mouth. ”He is mine. And mine alone.” His eyes grew wider with excitement.
”Guess, I will have to thank that firebird for sending me this delicious snack.” Aghus murmured.

Six evolved Eels charged wildly towards Elric. All of them immersed a powerful electric charge ready to paralyze or if possible, kill Elric on the spot.
Wooooshkk~
Woooosk~
WOooshK~
Their swimming speed left blurry images of them and remnants of lightning in the water scattered wherever they go.
Elric waited for the perfect timing before throwing his Spear of Fire. And just when one of them reached just a few meters away from him, Elric whisked the Spear of Fire and it went straight to the head and immediately penetrated its body until it came out of the other side!
”KYAAAAAA~”
The Spear of Fire went through the body of the front Eel like a hot knife cutting through the cheese and went straight to the next target that followed the first one.
Luckily, the second one managed to dodge the attack and continued to charge towards Elric but right before it could continue, another Spear of Fire flew from a different angle and successfully got the second Eel in its lower body.
Elric's flame is unlike ordinary flame that needs the presence of oxygen and combustible materials, Elric's flame is summoned through his own will. He can do whatever he wants with fire as long as he willed it, thanks to the overpowered benefits of the Authority of Fire.
Feeling the power of flame searing through its flesh, the two pierced Eels wiggled their body in pain trying to stop the flame wit the help of water but the fire continued to burn flawlessly.
”What is this” The Eels were caught in surprise as they realized that the being before them is no ordinary one at all.
The evolved Eels did not just become stronger, but faster and smarter as well. They knew pretty well that Elric is gonna threw that Spear of fire so they immediately stopped their direct charge and adapted a more evasive maneuver.
This time they all charged towards him in a spiral.
