《A Dryflame Child's Life (Rewriting)》Chapter 38-Captain?

''Take this!''Grim slashed his sword downwards while spinning like a wheel,cutting through the blue flames like they were butter.Soldier let out a fierce roar and increased the intensity of it's flames.It's body started to glow like a miniature sun,completely blinding the eyes of the others.But this didn't stop Grim from attacking.
''HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA''With a pained scream,Soldier reached with his left hands to Grim,then threw him to the side.Grim flew like a doll,crashing and destroying all trees in his way.After destroying 6 tree,he finally stopped.He stood up like nothing happened but when Gin saw his wounds,he couldn't help but cry out''Grim!''
There was a bone sticking out of his back,probably a broken rib while his left arm,which was gripped by the soldier,was broken.Even so,there were no fear in Grim's eyes.''Good!''He shouted once more,then with a step leaped towards Soldier.Soldier's eyes turned redder than ever,his bloodlust increasing multiplefolds that even Grim started to feel a chilling cold.
''Hmph,this is nothing in front of that Devil!''With a sudden step,he slided under the Soldier and cut through his legs,but only 2 light wounds were visible.Even so,Soldier was turning more and more berserk.He didn't care about his body or the 2 person at his back who were releasing huge amounts of mana.He only cared about this pathetic creature in front of him!How could he take wounds from an ant like this!He was a mighty soldier of Ghost King!
*ROAR*
With an frenzied Roar,all flames started to gather on one point,then turned into a long stick.He mad the same motion and 6 fire poles appeared in front of Soldier.Reaching out with all of his hands,he took them and directly swinged them towards the incoming Grim.With a blast,fires spread around the area and burnt the trees and grass,blacklening the local flora.Grim retreated quickly,putting some distance between himself and Soldier.
''I also have more weapon!''Grim was not like his usual self now.He felt like his bloodline,his instinct and mind was screaming to him to fight.There was an undescribable desire to fight.His heart's thumping could be heard clearly from outside.With a shake of his hand,Grim took another sword but this was different.
If first sword he used was a replica of Spirit weapon,this was a complete opposite.This was a Greatsword near to as big as him,it's surface covered by several runes.This was a thing he created in the past month,Combination of Creation and Enchanting.It's general quality was lower than his sword but with enchantments,it can create supreme effects.Just like this
''Freeze Aura!''With a shout,Greatsword started to glow with a white-blue aura,freezing the surroundings.Suprisingliy,it could stand against the flames of Soldier!''I can only hold for 1 more minute!''Grim shouted.Price was heavy to hold this Greatsword.His mana would be quickly depleted and if they didn't responded in time,he would be definetly teared apart.But he choose to trust them,so gave all of his efforts in to his 1 minute!

''Let's see who has the stronger weapon!''Grim directly rushed towards soldier with all of his speed.Steams were seeping out of his pores while his red skin made him look like a berserk monster.Holding one normal sword with right hand while carrying a greatsword in left hand,he looked ferocious but heroic at the same time.His long hair was fluttering because of the high speed,his eyes bright like stars.
Soldier looked like it was reaching it's limits of patience as it looked completely in a frenzied state.Flames covering him started to spread like a wave,reaching out to every corner 25meter around him.Gin and Maira quickly retreated while sending worried gazes to Grim.They only needed 30 seconds!
As they retreated,Grim made a sudden movement and jumped on the soldier's shoulder.His foot started to burn but he didn't mind it at all as he stabbed his sword at Soldier's neck.Soldier screamed like a mad man and directly sent all of his poles towards Grim.But the same moment Grim stabbed the sword,he leaped back to the Ground so poles missed their mark.
''HAAAAA''Soldier swinged 3 of his poles downwards while sent the other 3 flying towards Grim.If he wanted,Grim could evade the flying ones easily but he didn't!He couldn't control his body anymore.He only relied on his instinct as he held the Greatsword with both of his hands then slashed towards the incoming poles.
With a boom,Poles exploded like a fire ball,illuminating the nearby area.After flames faded away,Grim could be seen not harmed in the slightest while holding his Greatsword in front of him.Grim wanted to sigh but only a mouthful of blood came out.Sweeping the blood with his right hand,he turned his gaze back towards the Soldier,who took out the sword out of it's neck.
Sadly,Sword was not stabbed very deeply,or it could have been deadly.After some blood gushed out,wound started to close up like a normal scratch,but it was evident he spent a huge amount of energy as his flames weakened by a large margin.His flames now only covered his chest and arms,other parts were extinguished.
''10 seconds!''Grim shouted and gripped his Greatsword hard.His hands were now full of sweat,his mind clearing up slowly.His face a bit pale and his skin not as flushed and red as it has been.But there were no time to weigh the situation as Soldier let out a maddened Roar and rushed towards him.
Grim took a deep breath,and all time looked like stopped.He could clearly observe how flames were burning,ashen grounds texture,ferocious face of Soldier,how deep his own wounds were,expressions of Gin and Maira and so on.He felt like he entered a state,but didn't know how to adress it.But he put all of these thoguhts aside.He only focused towards one point.A dot.

He could see a dot right at the forehead of Soldier,it was way too small but he somehow sensed it.He knew,if he hit that everything would end.As he resolved himself,freezing aura of Greatsword slowly covered him,from feet to head.He looked like an ice statue,But he could still move.
He took a single step,then another then another.With each step,time seemed to return back to it's original flow.After the 10th step,everything turned back to normal but he was already in front of Soldier.Soldier was dumbfounded,but it didn't have any time to react.All he saw was a blue light and Creature appeared in front of him.Before he could even make a sound,a huge Greatsword slashed towards his head.
Just before Greatsword reached Soldier,a small circle appeared at the forehead of Soldier.When Grim saw the circle,he directly left the Greatsword's handle and retreated.Before he could get away a blinding ray of light appeared and pierced through his left chest,then dozens of trees on it's way.Only after hundreds of meter it did stop.Soldier's eyes suddenly brightened,bloodlust flowing like a river it set it's gaze on Grim's weakened body.
It wanted to rush towards Grim,but before it could move it felt a terrifying force behind.Soldier directly turned around,the sight it saw made it's eyes wide open.These were his last actions before dying.Suddenly,a huge cube appeared around the Soldier and enveloped it.Then cube shrinked to the size of a bead in a instant,completely crushing the soldier out of existence.
After cube disappeared,a bean sized,cube shaped meat piece fell down.After a second,a small token size of a adult's fist appeared,floating on the meat,but nor Gin or Maira looked at it.They directly walked towards the Grim,who was lying down pitifully.His skin was now back to the pinched version and his hair was disheveled,eyes a bit bloodshot.
''Grim!Are you okay!?''Gin asked and directly placed his hand on Grim,sending a wisp of mist inside.After sensing his internal body,Gin became shocked,While Maira stood there waiting for an explanation.Grim also looked at Gin,wanting to know what made him so shocked.
''What kind of a skill you are practicing Grim?This is crazy!Even thought you broke some ribs and there were no damages to the organs,i can see they are slowly healing.Even your burnt feet,look at it!''Gin said and pointed at Grim's right foot.He was saying true as half of his foot was already back to normal.Grim was also a bit shocked,he didn't think the regenerative ability of Chaotic Physique would be this strong!
''Just forget about his skill,if he will be okay then no problem.But to think that these soldiers would be this strong!''Maira said,her eyes had traces of worry and fear.Their loss was not big but it was also not small.Only a slight delay and Grim would be teared apart or his body would have been ruined.
''Let's wait till Grim gets healed,then we can think what we do''Said Maira,then sat right next to them,starting to replenish her mana.Last spell was a spell that was near to the boundary of Lord level,so it was a very draining spell.She also didn't learn it fully,so backlash was a bit heavy as well.But with Gin's help,they could share the burden so only mana drainage was a problem.
As Maira was sitting,Gin and Grim started to talk back and forth,but Gin didn't stop examinnig Grim's body.He was really fascinated,even much more than Grim.Becasue his physique was really resembling mountain giants!Giants could restore even their limbs and heal in high speeds while Dragons had near to limitless life force,other than Black Dragons.Though Dragons could use any healing spell freely and their bodies were much more stronger than Giants,their regenerative abilities were very low,very close to a hydra,which was superior to humans.
Grim was also astonished.And this was the lower tier of technique!If he coud reach upper tier then what would happen?Could he also restore limbs?And way past this was Dragon level.He was filled with expectation and excitement about this new technique.He took several mental notes to fully dedicate himeslf to this technique for this month.
As they were spending some time,all of them suddenly irked.They stood at their place,couldn't even move their body from the pressure.All of them looked at the right side,where stood the meat piece and token of Soldier.Near to the soldier's token stood a white haired boy,his body emitting an domineering aura that made them impossible to speak.He held 11 heads,all looking same as the 'Soldier' they killed.Only the last one was different.It held an aura that was even stronger than the other 10.
''I must praise you,Human.You managed to fight head on with a captain even though you are such a weak being''Said boy with an air of superiority.This boy was niece of Avenger,a Dragon that even Sovereign Tyra praised as a rare breed only could be seen in a thousand millenniums:Kaiser, The White Prince of Domination.

Welcome to the fantastic world of Bios. Another world, not much unlike our own, with some exceptions, such as, say, the presence of gods, demons, and magic. While things like these were once common knowledge, the Great Witch Hunt, which occurred 500 years ago, forced most of the magicians who survived into hiding, and many of the old religions to disappear, with the exception of a few. And so, as time went on, history was rewritten, and those amazing things became, to the population at large, the stuff of legends. However, in the year of 2017 A.S. (Anno Salvator), a group of teenagers find themselves pulled into the magical side of Bios as they encounter the Magic Knight Forces, discover dark secrets, and realize that a great threat is rising from its long sleep... The time for the supernatural to come out of the shadows is coming.
