Chapter 53: The Deadly Path - Part 3
Jay realised that he had been given a mission that was completely life threatening for him.
"Dammit... what's with this? It's as if the system is taunting me by showing difficulty levels... and this one is 'S'!!"
The sub-Mission yhat he has received just now after getting the skill was too difficult for him. It would be almost impossible for him to complete this mission since he would have been burned to death the moment he even goes near to the lava.

__________
"And why should I kill a Fire Golem King? That too 2?"
He despised this mission. If he were to go do this he would be certainly dead and if he ignored this he would be dead as soon as the time finishes.
"Well, maybe I can do this with the help of Heat Conversion..."
It was true that the S-Rank skill the Heat Conversion would allow him to convert the excess heat of lava to mana or other stats and that way he could be safe from the heat.
But the problem was the time of usage. It could be used for not more than 45 seconds and after that comes the cool down count which was around 16 hours!
It was quite troublesome now. A typical cliffhanger for him.
"What to do? How to do?"
Even with such intelligence he wasn't able to get the answer as to how to enter the magma and kill the Kings and also retrieve the hidden message that would have been buried deep inside.
"Oh man, I don't even have much time! Need to complete this as soon as possible..."
He somehow managaef to clam down for a brief moment.
"So I need to activate the Heat Conversion, that way for at least 45 seconds I can manage..."
He shouted with the top of his voice, "Heat Conversion, activate!"
'DING DONG'

Select YES to confirm using the skill.
YES/NO
__________
"Irreplaceable damage?"
"..."
Jay paused for a minute. He wondered what could have been the irreplaceable damage the system talked a about. But right now a little damage was nothing more than an appetiser to him since his own life was at risk.
"Uhhhh!!! I don't care!"
He immediately selected YES and as soon as he did suddenly a weird white smoke started coming out of his body.
'DING DONG'
__________
Excess amount of heat is being converted to mana.
Time left - 00:00:43 [43 seconds]
__________
"Oh no! I need to hurry!"
He immediately dived into the magma that was boiling hot while believing in the skill.
And as soon as he did a message popped up that suddenly made him happy and thrilled.
He sighed, "Thank God, it looks like the Lady Lucj hasn't left my side..."
He did this because of the weird message that appeared.
'DING DONG'

__________
"Even though there isn't much change in its function, the time limit of usage has increased! Also the cool down count decreased."
He thought over it and understood the Leveling method of the skills.
He found out that the skills evolve based on their usage and in accurate moments.
If he had used the skill HEAR CONVERSION in a cool environment there wouldn't have been much EXP points gained.
However he used it in a hot environment a lot of EXP points were gained and thanks to which it leveller uo immeditely.
Jay without wasting any more time immediately started to swim in the hot magma towards the deeper parts of the lake.
"I hope there aren't any beasts here..."
He kept on moving when suddenly he felt something weird.
It was a killing intent that was being emitted behind him.
He slowly turned back and shouted, "Ahhhhhh!!!!"
'ROARRRRRRRR'
A huge S-RANK Fire Eel with huge fangs looked at him as if he were a cuisine.
"Haha... you are kidding me... if an eel is able to survive here... does that mean that it has... dual properties?"
Dual Properties is a special thing that only few of the species of beasts posses.
It this case, a beast will have more than one element's power such as the Fire Eel which has the power of Fire as well as Thunder.
"Damn, need to run..."
He immediately started swimming faster but he knew very well that here inside the lake the eel would be definitely faster than any human.
Also the eel was as big as a mammoth from the ancient times.
But for some reason it seemed as if it itself was running away from something.
'ROARRRRRR'
Jay observed the eel overtaking him and going even faster ahead of him.
"The heck, was the killing intent not coming from the Eel? Then..."
He slowly turned back again.
"Haha... you got to be kidding me... I just entered the lake, what might be the possibility of encountering a Fire Golem King right away?"
He was shocked and thinking about the escape plan since he lost all his courage to fight it after looking at its scary appearance.
"But more than that... what are the odds of meeting 2 fire Golem kings? Haha..."
There were totally 2 Fire Golem Kings that we're surrounding him. One from the front and another appeared from his back.
