Bab 213: Best of both world

Elias dragged himself back to the motel after an intense training session with Melina. He managed to turn that little flame in his hand into something much bigger and harder to control.

He had been focusing so hard that his head started to hurt. When he set an entire dumpster on fire, his nose decided to start bleeding. That meant that they were done for the day.
