Chapitre 257: Fire's aftermatch

Everything stopped in its tracks. 

The second my hands slammed into the ground, the fire ceased its movements, turning into a still aura of heat and energy. 

And then, along with the air that I inhaled, all the fire swirled towards me, filling my lungs with its fiery power. 

This fire-born mana wasn't fully purified. 

Despite my constant attempts to wrestle full control over this energy, I managed to achieve only partial success. As such, even the tiniest sliver of this energy would wreak havoc in my inner state. 

And right now, I consumed the single greatest amount of energy in my entire life... 

All at once. 

I tightened my teeth. My breath was deep, allowing the fires to reach all the way to my very core.

At this point, my body was a bloody mess, even though not a single drop of blood came out from my wounds. 

'Fuck,' I could only silently think while the fires ravaged me from the inside out.
