บท 138: Chapter 138: Van vs Reed

"Mister Gil!"

Van could not help but cough as the dark smoke covered his entire body, his eyes, reflecting the blazing fire that seeped through the cracks of the fog.

The fire was slowly starting to swallow the forest, but still, Van was able to swiftly avoid danger due to his speed and reached the shores of the lake. But alas, Gil was nowhere to be found there.

"Mister Gil, where are you!?"

Van once again screamed, but his loud voice was drowned by the sound of embers and leaves crackling around him, whispers, but still too many enough. Add the thunder that the trees were causing as they separate from their roots and fall to the ground, one would barely even be able to hear themselves.

"Tch," left with no choice, Van used his [Air Step] to carefully climb through the air. However, he could not help but once again cough as the smoke thickened and became worse the higher he got.
