Chapter 124
Fwooosh!
Boom!
The flames unleashed by Delphina instantly annihilated those trapped within the misty maze.
[Kieeeeeeek!]
Flame Wave.
True to its name, the fire surged across the entire garden like a tidal wave, even shattering the Barrier of Aging cast by Petro.
Petro manifested a spherical shield to protect himself from the inferno, his eyes fixed on Delphina.
‘She is loved by the mana itself.’
It wasn’t just a simple release of powerful firepower. The mana was actively altering the environment to favor her, as if it were trying to protect Delphina.
Normally, he would have praised such talent and taken her as a disciple.
However, Petro’s patience had already reached its limit.
All his plans had gone up in smoke, and the karma he had built was slowly tightening around his throat.
Above all, his rage peaked at the fact that his convictions were being denied.
“Insignificant things.”
To know the origin is the only path to the truth.
To throw away that opportunity for the sake of the future or some respect for life.
“Truly a foolish child.”
Woom.
Petro’s wand glowed, and a spherical shield formed around Delphina, trapping her inside along with her own Flame Wave.
“?!”
Whish!
Realizing she would be the one consumed by the flames at this rate, Delphina generated a Gravity Core to smash the translucent shield.
But.
Grit, grind!
Instead of breaking, Petro’s shield pushed back against the Gravity Core, pressing in on Delphina.
What was even more shocking was that the Gravity Core had escaped her control.
