Fight saw and Decision.
The cloudy sky that has covered the bright clear sky, in the matter of an hour was still hanging on the horizon covering the whole world with an ash-grey look of funerals.
Where several living creatures which were burnt to ash due to that calamity were still crying in the reach of the sky, asking for the world they all missed.
In that kind of world, two monsters that carried the iciness of mist and glamour of the thunder walked in front of a young boy.
The boy who looked at age of 12 to 13 was carrying a girl, that was covered with ash falling from the sky like rain.
Within the boy's eyes, the burden he carried was not just of the girl on his back.
But it also carried the coldness and anger he felt, looking at the pain of those living that were burnt alive like that.
"Ashflame! Can you tell me why, something like this is happening? I had already seen, way too many life loose in front of me, as I could only watch it all from the sideline."
Jun asked inside his heart, where a tiny flame spirit appeared on his shoulder. Where she looked at Jun and said nothing in relation to his question.
Even Jun was able to tell, what Ashflame wanted to say to him with that silence.
'Find it yourself, that is what she wanted for me to search out in this adventure.'
Jun had been walking for a day now, where he has seen 2 human villages, where all he saw was completed the destruction.
Human or animal, monster or child that include everything in that town. Was burned to a crisp by some nefarious monster that had fallen.
But due to his weak strength, he hid like a coward and did not choose to come out from that place.
Given he saw the one that has hurt Amanda, his strength terrified Jun to this level.
Where he could only hide, sulking about his own incompetence that lead to the death of the village people.
'It was a wise choice Jun! That demon was level 4 Elite. They are clever with the intelligence with that of a human, along with their battle tactics and power. We could have died by his claw, without being able to retaliate at all.'
Jun heard Ashflame's tiny voice as he sat on the rock and nodded.
While Bolt helped him on getting Amanda down, he looked at Jun's dark expressions. He could tell, that his master was feeling down due to that scene they all saw.
'So called the strongest below level 2, fuck I could not even pull out the strength to pick up my grimoire. As it continued to burn alive those little children in front of me.'
Jun smiled at him with a sarcastic smile, thinking how at the sight of that monster he was not able to stop from quivering.
When Fil jumped in front of Jun, looking at Fil's eyes Jun saw his own reflection and found his looks to be more pathetic, than he thought them to be.
Then again! He felt that something with Fil's gaze was making him feel different than others.
It was a crucial thing, that was what he had been missing all this time.
"It's love! Fil like Amanda, and she is not willing to let her die like this. And for that, she needs you Jun to fight with her."
Ashflame appeared again in front of Jun's eyes and spoke when felt the sensation of moving in his hand.
As he saw Amanda's hand gripping his hand lightly though, Amanda might have been using all her force to grip his hand.
Tear tricked his face, as he held her hand, not wanting to lose what was in front of him. He stood up and started to look out for a cave.
"If I can't beat it with a head-on power, then I will assassinate that guy. If that did not work, then I will poison that bastard, but I will kill it for sure after all it is for her sake."
Jun reveal a vicious look, as he walked toward the hilly region and found a certain cave.
Entering inside the cave, he found out that it was quite cold in comparison to the outside temperature.
Jun use Ice Shard to make some ice, while he took out the bucket that Amanda has been using for them.
He took the ice and melt it outside the cave and brought it back while asking Fil to control her strength and use Ice Shard.
The cold water was used to use the cold compress and treat the fever Amanda was having.
Jun looked a little worried for all that time, he was wavering to put her in the spiritual world or not.
"One needs to guard her! And one would need to kill that monster. Leaving Amanda here alone is not a wise choice, having Ashflam I want one of you to stay here."
Jun looked at Bolt and Fil, given it was the most rational decision by his side. Where Fil walked and sat beside Amanda, as she looked at Bolt.
Given! She herself knew that Bolt's sudden attack [pattern and explosive force is the best weapon against that flying bat.
Jun did not speak, he let them make the choice once in a while. Also having Bolt or having Fil mean nothing, given both of them are as strong as they can be.
There was no one superior among them, both of them had the same combat tendencies.
Jun and Bolt walked out of the cave, and they both looked at the sky.
Seeing that there was no flying monster, both of them climbed over the hill and started to find the prey to fight.
After all, what they need right at this moment was training experience, tomorrow Jun was thinking of taking Fil to train with him.
That way! They will collect experiences and one day they might kill the thing that was haunting him.
'For that, I need to be stronger than I am right now, so I should find whatever I can to enhance the strength of Fil and Bolt.'
"You are wrong again Jun! It is not the power they lack, what they lack is preciseness and deadliness which is directly related to your order."
Ashflame suddenly appeared again and looked at Jun, as she pointed at Bolt and said.
Jun turned silent, as he looked at Ashflame and thought about what she was trying to say at the moment.
"Having high-density mana! enhancing their strength, and increasing cultivation is like buying a powerful weapon, where mana is their bullets. But what is all of them are good when their user technique is use less one."
