Chapter 16: Burn
I tensed my body, silently reinforcing it as the world around us burst into flames.
The fireball slammed into the pile of broken spears, lighting up the ground at Ragnar's feet and then spreading in an instant. It flowed across the ground, jumping from piece of wood to piece of wood until it reached the edge of the small box that Ragnar had unintentionally carved out.
It spread to the trees, the oil only making the flames flare up even higher. The entire area around was set alight in a massive fire.
"W-What?!" Ragnar stuttered, letting out a pained grunt as he was suddenly surrounded by a sea of fire. He bent over, his paws clutching desperately at his legs as the fire lashed out onto his fur, spreading across his body.
Considering how sore my chest still felt from his earlier blow, I was enjoying watching the wolf-man suffer. But, alas, I had no intention of burning alive with him.
"See you never!" I grinned, my face still stained in blood as I turned around. My whole body became reinforced - my limbs and body feeling as hard as steel.
I sprinted forward, barreling through the flames around me as they licked at my skin.
