"Are you going to eat now?"
Ronald could understand Catherine's state.
The two had just had a fierce fight, and rebuilding the body while consuming energy made hunger expected.
But the problem is...
"Where are we supposed to find food for you in a place like [Four Heaven]?"
"We can't just grab a Fire Elent and let you munch on it raw, right?"
Catherine smacked her lips:
"Tsk—"
"We're almost ready to fight, and there's not even a bit of food?"
As she complained, Catherine pointed to the surroundings. Almost in response to her gestures, the flas on the Fire Elents scattered throughout the city flickered with different rhythms.
Even though the contact ti wasn't long.
Ronald understood that this was the reaction of Fire Elental life when emotions fluctuated.
What could cause them to react like this?
There's only one answer—the Fire Elent Demigod sleeping in the magma lake is about to awaken!
Ronald imdiately turned his gaze to the magma lake.
The scorching lake surface was as calm as water; apart from the usual flow, there were no anomalies—at least to Ronald's eyes.
Did the Fire Elents sense sothing?
Is there a special change happening here that only Fire Elents can detect?
While Ronald remained silent, he began analyzing the value extraction situation.
The spell side confird this hypothesis.
Although the magma lake seed unchanged, the path for value extraction had increased by one, which very likely corresponded to the awakening process of the Fire Elent Demigod.
Ronald jumped down from the railing and began inspecting his spells.
In the upcoming conflict, maintaining a comprehensive state is absolutely crucial.
"Catherine, get ready. There's a reaction below the magma lake."
Upon hearing Ronald's reminder, Catherine leisurely moved down from the railing. However, she didn't rush to check her spell status; instead, she first tidied up the hair tie on her standing long hair.
"Ronald, your Perception Magic is interesting."
"What's happening below should only be detectable by Fire Elents, right?"
Catherine could sense the changes because of her insight into the Fire Elental state. In essence, she wasn't sensing the state of the Fire Elent Demigod in the magma lake.
Ronald's tone was so assured, indicating he had made a direct discovery.
Catherine was a bit curious about this.
Ronald straightforwardly explained:
"I learned an original spell from a person I t in Entrode, its power is unique and strong."
"Interesting." Catherine nodded, seemingly indifferent.
Then she stood alongside Ronald, the two overlooking the changes in the fire city below.
Though the changes were happening beneath the magma, the Fire Elent Demigod wasn't quick to appear.
anwhile, Fire Elents from outside the city converged more and more, giving the city an air of ten-sided ambush.
Half an hour passed, and a powerful Magic Power began to reveal itself.
And not just the Fire Elents, even Ronald and Catherine, two humans, could sense its presence through re Magic Power sensing.
In the increasingly tense city atmosphere, the air seed quieter.
Even the Fire Elents cooperatively suppressed their breaths, waiting in this silent ambiance for what's about to happen next.
As kin, the Fire Elents knew their Demigod's formidable power.
At this mont, none of them dared to relax even a bit.
...
Ti continued to pass.
But four hours before Catherine's original estimate for the Fire Elent Demigod's normal awakening, the peaceful magma lake surface finally showed new changes.
Countless bubbles surged from below the magma lake, continuously impacting and agitating the entire lake surface, as if the already scorching magma was boiling.
Simultaneously, the nearest Fire Elents began to move closer.
They eventually encircled the magma lake, like a fiery ring imprisoning a Witch.
Crackle—
At this mont, the magma lake continued to change.
The center of the red surface rose, while the surroundings sank, and the lava pulled down by gravity splattered everywhere. The high-rising magma gradually took shape, then a smooth outline erged.
Whoosh—
The originally protruding lava flowed to the surrounding below.
A huge spherical mass, whites in the blue, erged from the magma like the body of a palace.
anwhile, the surrounding environnt's temperature suddenly rose.
Simply standing on the balcony, Ronald and Catherine were subjected to considerable burning attacks by the sphere's brilliance, thwarted only by their respective defense thods, preventing any imdiate injuries.
Catherine sneered, then comnted:
"A blue fireball, that's quite rare."
Undoubtedly, this is the Demigod of the Fire Elent race.
With its appearance ca intense heat, and the massive inherent Magic Power testified to its strength and identity.
Ronald silently stared at this blue fireball, his brows furrowed.
After the Fire Elent Demigod appeared, the value amount extracted by his spells began a drastic surge, unprecedentedly exaggerating beyond his original imagination.
Of Ronald's encountered enemies, only a 'Great Being' like Gwendolin could suppress it.
Is this thing really in a weakened state now?
Catherine originally planned for the two of them to vanquish it, which truly was a dangerous and exciting plan.
Just a slight misstep, and both could end up directly falling here!
"..."
While Ronald and Catherine were engrossed in their thoughts.
High above, the Fire Elent Demigod remained motionless.
The Fire Elents in the fire city also fell into silence, none daring to act first under such pressure.
Swish——
Suddenly, a white halo flashed across the blue sphere, emitting a special sound.
This was an indication of communication by the Fire Elent Demigod.
And its aning was—
"Betrayal."
Ronald and Catherine exchanged a glance, instantly aligning their thoughts:
"This guy is going to act!"
The next second, massive Magic Power erupted from the blue sphere.
Facing the encirclent of its kin, the Fire Elent Demigod acted swiftly like thunder, imdiately unleashing nearly a third of its body's Magic Power.
This impact caused no harm to anyone.
But it quickly spread to a vast range, ultimately wrapping the entire city and isolating it from the outside world.
In this space, Magic Power itself beca extraordinarily scorching.
The Fire Elents adapted extrely well to the environntal changes, with their prowess skyrocketing not just one level.
While humans like Ronald and Catherine were significantly restrained.
Even without good defensive capabilities.
Just being in such an environnt would suffice to pose a considerable crisis!
Upon witnessing this change.
Ronald imdiately recalled his encounter in Entrode, fighting the 'Great Being' that descended upon Kangdingrant:
"Sanctuary, this at least is the prototype of a Sanctuary!"
