Chapter 979: Existential Paradox

"Boy, why couldn't you greet me like the rest of them? Does this old man not deserve praise in your eyes?"

Amory let loose his aura around Eren in a threatening way. The old man had seen how Eren was unaffected by his presence last time when he was in Master rank. So he wanted to try the old pressure tactic with new vigor, testing where Eren's limits lay.

As the Way of Fire made its presence known around Eren, he felt as though he was immersed in a pool of extremely viscous lava. His skin and throat started to dry up as he felt the most intense form of dry heat. It was as if he had been turned into a mortal and left to die in a secluded desert.

Amory had fire element attainments. His violet flames had healing properties. He had become a top-notch healer because of his rare affinity and its versatile uses unlocked by him.
