Chapter 510: [Battle Frenzy] Training 2.0.
‘Hestia …’
Yes?
‘I know … you wanted to talk about what happened, but is this really necessary to do it now? Like now now?’
Yes.
‘… The obsidian is melting. The heat from below this crust is still hot enough to melt through our corrosive obsidian! Why are you trying to do [Battle Frenzy] training now?’ Hikari blurted out, dumbfounded by my reckless behavior.
For a normal person, deliberately trying to settle deep inside a massive magma chamber’s magma lake, or ocean, might be the most suicidal thought ever, but to a sunfang dragon like me … This was less suicidal and more like just torturing myself. So, pretty much like everything else I’ve been doing up until now! Yippie!
Seriously, though, I could endure this heat to a certain extent, even with my broken solar core. It was like an extremely uncomfortable sauna experience, and it wasn’t just the heat; the sulfur, that rotten egg smell, was everywhere. The volcanic gasses made me want to puke, and I was pretty sure I hit an entire vein of it while escaping the magma ocean.
Mana-wise, though, I was okay. I had disabled [Symphonie des Feuergottes], [Humanize], my songs, and pretty much anything else that required mana to maintain, aside from the heat and lava manipulation aspects of [Obsidian Blaze]. The small amount of room inside this obsidian sphere allowed me to drink some dragorade and eat enough food to recover, so any arcane corruption I had built up was slowly disappearing.
With the rumbling coming from above, probably due to the mini civil war between the two dragon rulers of Inferno Nest, I believed it might be a little dangerous to go up any time soon. I would rather just activate my stealth skills, endure, and wait for Mom to help me out, ‘cause I had no interest in dealing with even more dragons now that Vifi was gone.
