Chapter 52 Trouble(6)

I managed to dodge most of the fire slashes but alot of them impacted my body inflicting searing pain but I gritted my teeth and endured. Thankfully the concentrated fireball was dispelled and it was ready to be fired. This fireball unlike the regular ones wasn't orange but a searing red colour. I fired the ball towards Grox and sensing the danger the fireball posed to him tried to dodge.

I manipulated the fireball to fly after him while flying after him myself.

"What's wrong, Grox? Scared of a little fire." I mocked him like the little devil I was. Grox replied by turning around and sending a fire slash at me and that gave me the opportunity to hit him with the fireball. As the fireball hit Grox in the stomach his fire slash sliced into my stomach.

[- 30 LP]

This fire slash was much more powerful than the previous ones and hurt a lot more than the previous ones as well but I bet Grox was having it worse. The fireball struck Grox in the stomach and I could see a small red film surrounding Grox like a barrier and it kept the fireball at bay..... for now. Even though I was hurt, I stretched out my hand and the fireball pushed against the barrier even more fiercely causing red sparks to appear.

*Crack*

Soon the barrier around his stomach started to crack and soon it gave way completely and the fireball impacted his flesh causing Grox to scream in pain and smoke to rise in the air.

*Snap*

*Booooom*

The fireball exploded causing the entire building to explode causing dust and debris to fly everywhere.

'Fuck.' Colin said as he got out of the building he flew into. He didn't anticipate that the explosion would be this powerful and so he wasn't able to get out of the blast radius which sent him flying into another building.

'That's strange, I didn't get a notification.' Colin thought. The force of the explosion caused him to break through the wall of another building. So Grox who was in contact with the fireball when it exploded should be dead yet he didn't get any notification which could only mean...

Colin spread his wings to take flight but suddenly he felt a terrible pain in his right wing. Looking at the wing, half of it was hanging limply signifying it was broken. Not being able to fly he had no choice but to find Grox on foot. Activating [Aura Vision], he soon found a faint red aura and quickly ran towards it. And soon he found the Grox or what is left of him, the entirety of Grox's chest and abdomen was burnt to ashes and even the blood in his body seemed to have dried up from the intense heat, how was he still alive. Walking over to him, I could hear faint breathing, which was odd considering that he didn't have a chest, looking at his pitiful state I couldn't help but feel.....well pity. Then again I couldn't help but also feel admiration towards him because even though he was on death's door that flame in his eyes was still burning bright.....or maybe it was just because of his race.

"I will end your suffering now." I said and swung my claws at his neck, decapitating him.

'I need to get back to the others.' And so I limped my way back to where my holy comrades were fighting.

Synthia POV

I have been fighting the three remaining Greater Imps while also making sure none of my four new priests died.

'All things considered, they were doing quite well atleast none of them are seriously injured just yet and they have killed quite a few of the imps already. They are promising, I just hope they survive long enough to....' My train of thought was broken as one of the Greater Imps sent a fire slash at me but I managed to dodge just in time.

"You should concentrate on your opponents." Said the female one, as she suddenly appeared behind me and swung down her long sword but I quickly spun around mid air and deflected her blade upwards but unfortunately the impact sent me flying towards the ground. Not missing this opportunity the last of the three Great Imps fired a fire arrow at me using his bow. The arrow struck me in the shoulder but I quickly channelled my energy to my shoulder, destroying the arrow and preventing the demonic energy from hurting me further.

*Booooom*

Suddenly a loud explosion sounded near by and the Greater Imps stopped their advance to look. I quickly used their distracted state to take to the skies once again.

"I need to finish this fight quickly." I said grimly while staring at the explosion. K don't know who cause the explosion or if any of those two are still alive but I needed to prepare for the worst which means killing these three quickly.

'I have no choice.'

"[Wrath of the Heavens]." I muttered and then my body started to glow a fierce gold as Heavenly flames wrapped around my form in a tight embrace.
