BXBX NOVEL Chapter 331 Celestial Flames?
-Krkrrrr!!!
On Alzania, more precisely in the forest where Alvine and the others were, the main door to the sealed room opened suddenly following Alvine\'s contact with it.
-!
Seeing this strange phenomenon that none expected, Alvine and the others withdraw their breaths with complex emotions of nervousness and impatience.
"Well, it\'s even better," Alvine murmured with sweaty hands.
"Master, be careful; this place is anything but normal!" Henia gave him this warning once again while watching the two gigantic doors open with shrill and metallic noises that sounded like bad symphonic in their ears.
"I know, I know, but all the same, this place really gives me goosebumps! I\'m so nervous that I feel like I can\'t wait for another sec in front of these damn doors that are as slow as a turtle on land!"
"... Master, what you say is not nervousness but excitement." She said, sighing bitterly when she saw Alvine not taking her seriously.
"Oh well? Finally, it doesn\'t matter. But reassure me; I\'m not the only one to notice the abnormal magical energy of this place, am I?"
"Indeed, as we are currently so deep underground, I can therefore assume that this woman (Serena) was right when she said that this room was connected to the core of the planet. On the other hand, we should expect the worst in this room." She insisted once again as she approached Alvine after noticing the complete opening of the doors.
-?!
But strangely, as she and the others not expected, the room was completely dark.
Specifically, it was like the oven of a divine blacksmith with flames of multiple colors that engaged in fierce battles between them.
And Alvine, who wanted to enter the room, stopped in his steps, noticing this unique and fanciful show.
\'What is... how is it possible?! There are at least ten different types of flames that are as powerful as my icy frost flames! W-Wait, there\'s even a flame of icy frost! Of the same type as mine!?\' Henia cried out of disbelief in her thoughts while casting her most powerful magical barrier around them.
-Craack!!!
"What?!" She couldn\'t help but be horrified when she saw that her shield broke almost instantly after she cast it!
"Tsk, tsk! However, it\'s not for lack of warning you!" Simultaneously, Serena\'s frustrated tone resonated at their side as she also created a magical shield around everyone with her primordial energy, unlike Henia, who did not have a large reserve of primordial energy.
"Hm? Are you still here? You--
"Master, come and see!" At the same time, Henia\'s strident voice interrupted Alvine, who still seemed as calm.
But hearing Henia\'s restless voice, he forgot what he wanted to say to Serena and looked at Henia sitting among his subordinates, who collapsed on the ground!
"What happened to them?!" He asked by appearing instantly next to Henia with dark eyes.
But when he also noticed Brave and the other two in a similar state, he crossed his first hypothesis, believing that Brave and the others had taken advantage of this brief inattention to attack his subordinates by surprise.
But, he became even more confused by noticing their abnormal red skins as if they were exposed to chemicals.
"It\'s because of the impact caused by the different auras of these celestial flames!" Henia explains with sweat beads on her forehead, proving that she also had trouble withstanding the heat and magical energy of this place.
"..."
Thus, after hearing Henia\'s statements, Alvine approached Fyora and inspected the latter\'s condition using his magical perception.
"Sigh, she took some damage before finally fainting because of the pain." He said, looking at the sad expression the latter always had despite being unconscious.
[Laws of healing: jellyfish\'s cocoon!]
Simultaneously, Henia created a white cocoon around each of the four in which small transparent jellyfish-like creatures healed all the anomalies in her patients\' bodies.
\'Incredible, from there, to believe that this room contains so many celestial flames of high ranks?! This bitch made fun of us by saying there was only one creature of the same power as a mana beast!\' Alvine retorted in his thoughts while nonchalantly watching Serena heal Brave and the others with hostile and frustrated eyes.
"Don\'t give me such an aggressive look. Contrary to your belief, these flames are not celestial flames but a single entity. I don\'t know why they suddenly started fighting each other, but what\'s certain is that they are trying to kill us." She murmured to Alvine, noticing the strange look he threw at her.
"Only one entity? Don\'t make fun of us! These things can never be a single entity; they Are definitely celestial flames, even if they are only fragments without cores! Just say that it\'s one of your laboratories in which you practice all kinds of crazy and inhuman experiments!" Henia retorted, looking at her with eyes that were no different from Alvine\'s.
"Inhuman? Why do you talk to me as if I were one of these inferior creatures? Finally, believe it or not? But I would have been happier of all if I had such interesting topics to experiment with!" She said, looking behind her with dreamy eyes.
"..."
"Whatever; I\'d like to know why you manage to remain indifferent despite so many asphyxiating auras of these mysterious flames?" She asked Alvine with contracted eyebrows.
"Me?" Alvine indexed himself.
"Yes, you! Don\'t play the idiot before me, and tell me what you know about this creature!"
"But what are you still talking about? I absolutely don\'t know what you\'re talking about this so-called entity. All I know is that my flames get excited as we approach this place." Alvine replied nonchalantly.
But at that moment, he noticed someone, or instead, something missed calling him.
\'Speaking of these flames, where are they?!\' He wondered while looking around and tried to call them to him.
But instantly, his expression became cold when he noticed the impassable!
\'I can\'t feel them. Were they swallowed up by its fellows who are in this room?!\' He wondered with a slight emotional tremor.
"Something is wrong, master?" Henia asks, noticing Alvine\'s disturbing expression.
"..."
With Alvine silent, Serena approached the room with the intention of closing her doors.
"Wait! I have to go there!"
"Have you gone crazy?!" She stopped in her footsteps and asked him this question with incredulous eyes.
\'Why is this bastard so eager to death?!\' She continued thinking when she saw Alvine getting closer to the room.
But at the same time, Henia stopped him by clinging to his wrist.
"Don\'t go! Even I can\'t be sure to go out unscathed if I ever enter this room which is the battlefield of the celestial flames fragments!" She said with intrepid eyes.
"Don\'t worry; in fact, you have to!"
"But why?!"
"You still don\'t understand?! I can accept returning empty-handed, but I\'ll never accept losing something irreplaceable!" He retorted with a frustrated look with slightly dark eyes.
Hearing him say these words with as much seriousness, Henia let go of his wrist.
"Is it so important for you to the point of defeating the mission the lord had given you?" She whispered a last question which was a reminder of the cause of Alvine\'s presence on this planet.
"No, nothing is more important than my lord\'s orders!" He responds almost instantly with entirely dark pupils.
"So why do you want to waste everything?!" Henia asked with confused eyes.
"I think there\'s a misunderstanding; I never said I was going there to die!" He replied by indexing the room.
"As this madwoman has just said, for some reason, I don\'t know, I\'m not affected by the hot heat of this room. Even if I am stronger and more resistant than the others, don\'t you find it strange that I can stay in front of this room without sweating while you and Serena have clothes soaked in your sweat?
-Sigh, think for a second; Sabrina sent us here without telling us what we came for. In addition to that, I can bear the heat of this room. It is, therefore, evident that these things are linked for some reason."
"..." Hearing Alvine\'s hypotheses, Henia no longer had words to say.
And seeing this, Alvine did not try to convince her more; he looked at Serena with her stern expression.
"Let me out of this barrier."
"No, I can\'t do that."
-Dark frown.
"Do what you want, but I will never let you access something so dear to me. These flames are mine! And they will be forever! It is out of the question that I let anyone touch it; these are my properties!" She retorted with decisive eyes.
"Do you really want us to fight for that? I don\'t care about these flames that don\'t even belong to you, to begin with; all I want is to recover my flames that are probably in the middle of this strange battlefield!"
"Your flames? Are you talking about your black candles that are not even spiritual flames? You don\'t care about the world or what? Do you think that simple spiritual flames will be able to survive in the hands of this creature?!"
But what creature are you talking about?! There are only flames, just heavenly flames, damn it! Sigh, for the last time, stop blocking my way, otherwise--
"Otherwise? Hah! That\'s the best. Do you think you can defeat me? You? A simple clone?" She asked with crazy eyes!
"... Master, I think she is losing her mind; if we confront her in her current state, this planet will risk being the most prominent victim that--
"So what?! If this is the case, she will also lose the guinea pigs she wants to protect at all costs!" Alvine interrupted Henia with eyes and a smile no different from Serena\'s.
\'... Sigh, it\'s off to a bad start. I think I\'ll have to contact Lady Rina before it\'s too late. If these two crazy people go wild here, the consequences will be--!!
-RUMBLE!!!
Before she finished her words in her thoughts, a violent earthquake fell on the small room, following Serena, who manifested her primordial artifact, which was a gigantic ring of light around her.
"Even if it takes me another century to seal this thing again and study it, YOU WILL NOT ENTER THIS ROOM!" She retorted with bloody red pupils.
\'This bitch!\' Alvine gnashed his teeth with rabid eyes feeling the unbearable pressure of Serena\'s magical energy.
"This creature is my property! It belongs to me! I wouldn\'t let anyone touch it!!" She retorted firmly and was ready to protect her possession to the end.
"Kuku, your property? Do you really believe this slut is sweet enough to be tamed by someone other than her lord?"
"!!!"
At the same time, the funny voice of a man with ruby-red eyes and long black hair echoed as he appeared between Serena and Alvine.
Seeing this new guest standing nonchalantly in front of her with his hands crossed behind his back, Serena had dark eyes as her crazy smile fad on her lips.
"What the hell are you?!" She asked with cold eyes.
"Me, just a person who hates this bitch more than you. Oh, there~ my peaceful days will now become a distant dream!" He said while instantly appearing out of Serena\'s shield and bringing Alvine with him.
"What are you waiting for? That\'s the second time I\'ve pulled you out of the shit; it\'s really unsightly, apart from being so weak to the point of remaining hesitant in front of this weak and frail creature. You\'re a shame to be one of us!" He retorted, pushing Alvine into the middle of the flames with disappointed eyes.
\'Sigh, fortunately, I arrived in time before this bitch went wild!\' He murmured, crossing his arms in front of the door.
"Huh?! What is--?!" Seeing the mysterious man send his master to certain death, Henia tried to save him by teleporting herself out of Serena\'s barrier and tried to join Alvine.
-Ekuh!!
But she was seized by the throat by none other than Dalvine, who looked at her with dark eyes.
"Stay quiet, little girl. Your master hasn\'t stopped playing with me since the beginning, and take my word for it; I\'m really not in the mood to have fun with the three of you!" He retorted, sending Henia back against the wall and immobilizing her with black chains.
Following that, he focused on Serena.
"Again you? That\'s the second time you have been surprised to intimidate this youngest subordinate. But you see, I\'m not so lenient to the point of becoming a saint. So what\'d you say to experiment a little it\'s feeling of being crushed by stronger than you?" He said with a demonic smile that could only be described as cruel!
