Chapter 312 - The Birth of the Supreme Fire Mage (1/2)

SOLEIL didn't expect that she'd return to Kale Kingdom during chaos.

After her training with her Brother Wixx, the two of them planned to head home first and meet up with the other Beast Gods to make a plan. But on their way back to Solarium, they received a message from Solenn, the Sun Priestess.

Apparently, the Crades and the evolved ones had attacked Kale Kingdom a week earlier than they were told.

When she and the Red Phoenix arrived at the Royal Capital, they were almost too late.

”I can't believe the Crades managed to break the protective barrier around the kingdom,” Wixx, standing beside her on the roof of the highest tower in the Royal Capital, said while watching the horrific attacks of the Crades happening below. ”And the royal knights couldn't even protect one village.”

She heard her brother's apathetic voice, but her body felt numb at the moment.

There were so many things happening at the same time that she didn't know where to look at. People were being eaten by Crades wherever she looked. But the thing that shocked her the most was the fact that the evolved Crades actually looked very similar to humans now.

Thus, it confused humans. They began suspecting that the other was Crades. Then, they would fight and end up killing each other only to find out that they actually murdered a fellow human. That unnecessary killing just made the pandemonium worse than already it was.

Her heart thumped hard against her chest painfully.

Everything that she saw disgusted her to the core.

”The other Beast Gods are late,” her Brother Wixx said, then he turned to her. ”Shall we start?”

”Brother.”

”Yes?”

She turned to her brother. Even though she couldn't see her reflection, she was pretty sure that her eyes had turned a glowing red. For the first time in her life, she felt so angry that she thought of harming even innocent humans. Thankfully, she managed to get a hold of her remaining sanity. ”I will burn everything down– so please do your best to save as many humans as you could. And if you have the time, could you please check on the royal family in the tower? I'm worried about Lord Kalel's siblings.”

Her brother looked confused, but he nodded. ”I don't know what you're planning but I trust you, Soleil,” he said, then he opened his flaming wings. ”I will help the citizens, and try to check on the Black Serpent's siblings if I have the chance.”

After saying that, Brother Wixx flew around without further ado.

She understood her brother's urgency. They were already in a war and that meant every second count. Thus, she didn't waste any more time as well.

”Calm down,” she told herself, then she took several deep breaths until her breathing returned to normal. Then, she summoned her Golden Bow. She didn't summon the Golden Arrow yet because she needed to perform a spell first. ”Let's do this.”

Encouraging herself worked.

Fire Mages were still mages that could perform spells that didn't have anything to do with fire. It was just that their affinity to the flame was so strong that people thought they were only good at controlling fire.

But she was born a mage, too. Thankfully, her clan's greatest mage taught her how to make strong spells, and that was what she was about to do.

”Great Flame of mine, listen to my cry,” she said while holding the Golden Bow in her hand tight. ”Burn those monsters who feast on human flesh, leave not even a speck of dust. Envelope this cursed village in your warm and mighty embrace.”

The Golden Bow illuminated, telling her that she successfully created a spell of her own.

Without hesitation, she grabbed the Golden Bow and positioned herself to shoot. This time, she summoned her Golden Arrow while preparing another spell.

Yes, she only needed one arrow.

”Golden Arrows of mine, I need your infinite strength,” Soleil said seriously, then she pulled the arrow pointed at the sky. ”Make it rain and don't stop until every single man-eating monster has turned into ashes.”

A legend would be born from that day later.

People had witnessed the ”Great Rain of Fire” from the infinite flaming arrows ”pouring” down. But the amazing thing was each flaming arrow only hit Crades, saving the humans and giving them the chance to be saved by Winchell.

While Soleil, who didn't even need to move, just stood there and watch her enemies get burned down to ashes.

But just because she was 'just' standing there didn't mean that she was doing nothing. The two spells that she created were actually eating on her Mana. Moreover, the ”infinite” Golden Arrows weren't actually ”infinite.”

If ever she lost consciousness or she died, then the spell would lose its effect.

Thus, Soleil had to be conscious and guard her back.

But she didn't have to worry about that.

Even though she felt the presence of several strong Crades behind her, she didn't move from her spot. Heck, she didn't even turn to them. After all, she knew that her allies had already come to protect her.

”You are so reckless, Soleil,” Elis Ripperton said, and she could imagine him shaking his head. ”Couldn't you have waited a bit for us?”

”Why are the prophecies always wrong?” Ainsworth complained. His heavy footsteps were enough for her to know that he was pissed. ”They gave us the wrong date again!”

”Stop complaining, you idiots!” her Brother Wixx, who was flying around, stopped in front of them to yell at his fellow Beast Gods. ”Help me save the people!”

Without saying a word, Elis Ripperton and Ainsworth disappeared from behind her.

Ah, they definitely followed her brother to save the humans.

”You really are reckless, Soleil Rosenberg,” Kalel Moonchester, who just stood beside her, said while shaking his head. ”But good job.”

Soleil, despite being tired at the moment, smiled. ”Thank you, Lord Kalel.”
