Chapter 547: The Power Of Fire!
-----
The power of fire magic.
An incredible rare element in the continent of Jotunheim, this was due to the continents very high closeness with cold temperatures.
In this continent, the element of ice was the most predominant of them all, and the one that flowed the most all across the continent, way more than in other continents, and especially similar in quantities to the continent of Niflheim.
This was due to its closeness to this continent of frost and ice, although there was around 30% of the continent that remained without as much snow and ice, and even had a lot of greenery, the majority of the year the continent maintained itself covered in frozen landscapes and snow.
Because of these conditions and more, fire element was one of the rarest that could be found, and it usually was a rarity amongst rarities… although the opposite could be found in the continent of Muspel, the counterpart of ice giants lived, fire giants.
Instead of ice dominating Jotunheimr and Niflheim, in Muspelheim there was a lot of fire attribute, and a fire giant being born with ice magic was incredibly unlikely.
But the same was here, an ice giant with fire magic? It was often thought to be absolutely impossible.
However, there were such cases, extremely rare cases where the ice giants were born with the element of fire. But these people didn't lasted long. There was a problem that elemental giants had when they were born with the element of their complete opposite.
Because they were weak to their opposite element, they would often grow weaker by wielding it, and would ultimately die because they cannot take this elemental mana into their bodies to cultivate, or the more their mana cores of that element grew stronger, the more pressured they felt until their natural element rushing through their bodies contrasted with the one in their mana core, causing an even worse case of magic explosion.
But why? Why was Flayr, the young ice giant girl different? In fact since she awakened her fire magic that she had not shown any complications. She was able to wield flames without issues, conjure powerful fireballs, fire whips, fire walls, and all sorts of fire spells with ease, never showing any complications whatsoever!
Despite this not being completely possible… but it was happening.
It could be said that it was because she drank the blood of an ice dragon, strengthening her physique and gaining natural resistance to the fire element, which ice dragons actually resisted.
Also, drinking this blood made her body grow naturally stronger too, becoming capable of withstanding the mana of her opposite element flowing across her mana veins.
Since the moment that Drake found Flayr that he found her different than the other kids anyways, her bright red hair contrasted beautifully with her pale blue skin. She was a very unique-looking girl, and an adorable one at that.
Of course, Drake didn't knew the full context behind her powers and most of the time gave things for granted, without realizing that the carefree act of giving his own blood to all the kids while also helping them recover their traumas, and also awakening their mana cores, would had helped them so much, especially Flayr, who might had been destined of living an even worse life.
However, since Flayr was picked up alongside her "siblings" by Drake and Benladann that she had been slowly progressing and growing stronger, she even showed off her might against another ice giants inside a tournament in the ice moon sect from all things. She had been progressing this entire time, raising her cultivation by going to explore dungeons with her friends.
She accumulated mana cores and then gave them to the alchemy group, who crafted potions for her, the same was for her friends.
Over months, they slowly reached higher cultivation Ranks. Without realizing it, she had even taken down a Rank 4 Boss Monster with the other kids and felt overwhelmed by a sensation of accomplishment… and it hasn't even been that long since she began her journey as a magus.
It could be said that nothing of this would had been achieved without Drake's help, it was mostly all thanks to him, but it was also thanks to her efforts. It wasn't as if he gifted them all, he gave the opportunities, but he required their effort and hard work in exchange.
And now at Rank 4, she was still the only fire attribute wielder in the entire castle, and she was about too unleash her flames down into the enemy.
She had a good amount of Mana herself, so Flayr felt confident.
After having Ranked up to Rank 4 from such a young age, her little body had grown up a bit, now she looked like a girl in her early teens despite not having reached this age yet. Still, she was mostly a child with a lot of power.
"Flayr, you're ready?" asked Drake.
"I am…" said Flary.
She touched the crystal in front of her and began infusing her fire-attribute mana, something completely unique and different that no ice giant could develop… well, only one in a billion, a rarity amongst rarities, as it was stated previously…
FLASH!
The transparent crystal ball began to overflow with fiery red energy, turning completely red, as flames danced inside of it and began to overflow its interior with more and more heat.
An enormous aura of fire began to encompass the crystal sphere as it rushed down through the runes and magic formations, connection to the cannon that Fuyu pointed down.
A massive heat wave came out of the cannon, making the entire sky tremble as the clouds dissipated against this heat wave…
TRUUUUUMMM…!
The massive amount of blazing power within the canon was incredible, and it continued to grow larger and larger, until it ultimately became incredibly powerful, as if the entire sky was being bathed in heat, in blazing flames of judgement.
Those within the Dark Shadow Sect Territory noticed this fiery disturbance, as they glared upwards…
Fear began to emerge in their eyes.
