Chapter 37
"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Ifrit stood before the sea of flames, laughing wildly.
Evening had fallen, but the inferno raging through the streets illuminated half of Mandel City. In the distant districts, people halted their work, staring blankly at the towering flames rising from City C.
Yoren scanned his surroundings. The helicopter was long gone, leaving behind no living souls except him and Ifrit.
Damn it...
What the hell was Rhine Life thinking? Dropping a living, breathing Charizard from a plane like some disposable weapon and leaving it to its own devices? Where were the adults? Where were Homer and Saria?
Wait—maybe Hemer wasn't with Rhine Life at this point in time? No... Ifrit had mentioned her name earlier.
So where the hell was everyone? Why was no one here to contain this?
Then it hit him.
Ifrit had mentioned testing. She probably believed the weapon in her hands was being tested, but in reality, Rhine Life was testing her.
She was a severely infected person, her body perfectly attuned to fire. Armed with that monstrous weapon, she was now a walking, breathing artillery strike.
