An Alliance of Humans
The fire magus was shocked and confused. The heat became stronger and stronger to the point where it became unbearable.
"Get me out! It's too hot!"
Henry was startled, seeing the guy feel freezing cold and then unbearable heat.
He waved his hand and melted the ice back to mana. He mixed a torrent of flames with a blob of water, making it lukewarm. He then wrapped the fire magus in it.
"SO HOT! STOP! PLEASE!"
The fire magus begged in pain, but Henry didn't stop. He kept a serious expression on his face.
What happened to the fire magus was simple— His body became too cold, and it tried to expend all its energy to become hot. Unfortunately, that was a one-way ticket to death.
After doing so, the body would die. That was how most hypothermia victims perished— without their clothes as they sensed the flaring heat of their body's last attempt at survival.
