Chapter 107: This feels soft and nice.

"Explode!" Klaus shouted. 

For a brief moment, time seemed to freeze, an eerie silence enveloping the forest. Then, with a blinding flash, the orb detonated. The explosion originated from within the ball of fire, instantly flooding the forest with a crimson glow.

The Zombie, which had been moving toward the orb, was reduced to ashes—or rather, runes. The orb's fiery eruption consumed it entirely, leaving only scattered runes behind. Martin, who was only a few meters away, was also engulfed by the flames and died instantly, again.

Klaus, who had managed to reach the barrier before the explosion, felt his life force slipping away. Desperately, he summoned the Ice Lotus and channeled every last bit of energy he could muster into the second star, activating the Absolute Ice Domain.
