68 CHAPTER - 68 - THE GATEWAY OF MINIATURE HELL : PART ①

Zhao targeted Ereshkigal's palms and shouted,

"FUSILLADE!"

*BANG!!!*

Fusillade was Zhao's one of special moves. This allowed her to create a volley of short yet powerful and fast paced missile like fire blasts. This attack also caused the creation of a lot of smoke.

"Who the hell are you?! What do you want from me?!"

Zhao asked fiercely!

Behind the smokescreen, there stood Ereshkigal. Zhao's fusillade did not quite worked on Ereshkigal. She covered her palms with her own non-extinguish-able fire and avoided Zhao's special move. After that, she laughed menacingly and replied to Zhao,

"FUFUFUFUFU!! Lemme' show you who I am!"

Ereshkigal stretched out her hand and SHOUTED 'burn it all' in ancient language,

"AAGJAL AAEWO!"

Ereshkigal's palm got lit up. She projected a huge wave of non-extinguishable fire against Zhao. Ereshkigal's one and only target at that time was Zhao. Even if Ereshkigal's flame had hit any other thing except Zhao, they would have no actual affect on that thing. However, if those fires would hit Zhao, she would be turned into ash in no time.

Special moves are instilled in one's memory. After using it for more than a few times, one has no need to chant its incantation to use a specific skill. However, one still requires permission from gods to convert their surroundings' Gi into their own specific element or project their Gi in form of an attack. Since Zhao already had enough 'converted Gi' in her body, she did not needed any permission from the god of fire to use her special move. However, right now, she had no means of defending herself from Ereshkigal's attack without chanting the incantation to project out her flames. She said to herself,

"Godd@mn! I won't be able to make it!"

*RUMBLE!!!*

*BOOM!!!*

*CRASH!!!*

All of a sudden, the ground started rumbling! The one who caused this rumble was Jae-Hyuk. He appeared out of nowhere and created a wall in front of Zhao. The wall emerged from the ground. Jae-Hyuk was sitting on the his legs and he was touching the ground with his palm as if he was taking the ground as a support to lean on. There was also a magic circle created between his palm and the ground. Jae-Hyuk was using his Earth elemental magic to create a string wall which was currently able to withstand Ereshkigal's attacks. Slowly, he raised his head and asked Zhao,

"Miss Zhao, what's goin' on here?"

Zhao replied,

"Thanks for coming... That girl attacked me out of the blue. I didn't even got any time to concentrate on my Gi."

Jae-Hyuk said,

"Schwartz is the one you must be saying thanks to. He ordered me to come here since it was taking more than usual time for you to come back home from the magic practice arena. And... Do you have any idea who that lady might be?"

Zhao replied,

"Hmm... By the looks of it, she might be one of the Generals of Navertozwein."

Whilst replying to Jae-Hyuk, Zhao thought,

"I'm glad that today, the service in the cafe was really slow... And I'm thankful to Schwartz for being so thoughtful of me..."

Jae-Hyuk was sweating in a large amount as soon as he heard about his opponent's possible identity. He calmed himself and asked Ereshkigal,

"Hey! You! Are ya' one of the Generals of Navertozwein?!"

Ereshkigal, who stood on the other side of the wall, said to herself,

"Another target huh... No problem! I will take both of you at once! This Ereshkigal is definitely going to prove her worth to lord Navertozwein! Only for once... Once my fire hits you all, it won't stop until it completely burns down both of you!"

Even though Ereshkigal was self-talking, Jae-Hyuk clearly heard every single word she omitted from her mouth. As soon as he understood that she is Navertozwein's underling, he turned towards Zhao and said,

"Zhao. We have to kill her, otherwise, she would kill us."

Zhao replied,

"Understood."

Jae-Hyuk started forming a plan with Zhao.

"First of all... We need to find out about that 'Ereshkigal' or so called lady's specific ability."

Zhao answered,

"Fine. What should we do to find out about it?"

Jae-Hyuk said,

"We will wait."

Zhao didn't panicked and decided to follow the order of the one who is elder than her. Ereshkigal ran out of patience and stepped a few steps back. After that, she marked the wall in front of her as a target. She gathered her flames and shouted once again,

"AAGJAL AAEWO!"

Her flames reached the wall at an immense speed and the moment it came in contact with the wall, the wall completely got burnt down. It didn't take anytime for it to be destroyed, even though Zhao tried to destroy Ereshkigal's flames and Jae-Hyuk kept on creating new layers on the wall. Jae-Hyuk completed his observations and ordered Zhao,

"Zhao! I've came to a possible conclusion. Her flames, be careful of 'em. Her flames can possibly destroy any kind of object in a matter of a few seconds and there is literally no way to stop her. Now... I want ya' to buy some time and distract Ereshkigal. If the plan works, I can easily take out that Bit(h!"

Zhao understood Jae-Hyuk and said,

"Okay, I'm counting on you!"

*BLAZZ!!!*

*WHOOSH...*

The wall protecting Zhao and Jae-Hyuk got destroyed and the smoke which was produced by Ereshkigal's flame got blown away by a sudden gust of wind. Ereshkigal stepped towards Zhao as she thought,

"Looks like the time to finish this game has come...!"

However, she was completely startled as Jae-Hyuk was to be seen nowhere! She shouted and asked Zhao,

"Where the hell is that man from before?! Where is my other target?!"

As Ereshkigal was falling into a confusing situation, Navertozwein was watching this whole scenario using his demonic eyes, which were able to see anything in the world, which is related to his future, present and past. While watching this in a shadowy place where only his body's outline could be seen, he thought to himself,

"Lemures was killed by a normal human... Hmm... He won't be any threat to me... If I receive the heavens slaying sword! I do not fear anyone. But... I have to receive the heavens slaying sword... Looks like, the time to open the GATEWAY OF MINIATURE HELL has finally come."
