章 533: 533. Wounds

An explosion filled the air where Noah had deployed his defenses with flames, making the sky become red due to the width of the blast.

Noah felt a surge of power filling his body before he started to be affected by the heat radiated by Fred's attack.

The Black hole spell absorbed part of the "Breath" contained in the attack before being overwhelmed by the heat, the defensive layers in front of the tortoise shell broke as the flames advanced.

More layers were created under Noah's control, but they weren't able to keep up with the advance of the heat, the flames soon reached the black shell and filled its surface with cracks.

Noah's Blood companion screamed in pain as its shell was broken, the flames burned its body, and cracks appeared over its half-transparent figure in Noah's sea of consciousness as the creature endured the attack.

Then, Fred's attack reached Noah's ethereal form hidden inside the Blood companion.
