Chapter 444: Ravaged

Until the flames ravaged and overwhelmed it.
Suddenly, it was a struggle of titanic magic. Fire versus lightning. Yokai god versus human god.
"I-it’s stronger!" Jules and Matty had taken flight on the Ibong Adarna. Booker was there as well, although rather than being mounted, he clung onto its tail. "He’s going to lose at this rate!"
"Are you shitting me...?"
It was not the fact that Kazi Hossain even with all that power was losing. It was what Booker himself had to do. This gradual loss, this was the plan. This was what Kazi meant. Stand by. Be ready. Study the papers.
Booker knew what he had to do. He did what he was told. He memorized. He remembered. The professor and his cohorts could not figure out how the fire spawned. What organ caused it. He was a soldier. He knew how to analyze and apply.

’The stronger the heat of an area, the more likely the location of the malfunctioning organ for this ridiclous attack.’
