3107 Burnt Out (Part 1)

The souls of the dead tried to access Lith's mana and mastery over magic, but those notions were safely guarded and beyond the reach of the invaders.

"So you admit it!" Valtak roared, coalescing the Primordial Flames into a gigantic snake that coiled around the Void Demon Dragon, trapping him. "Lith is just your first victim. How many people are you willing to sacrifice in order to prolong your existence?"

"Enough!" The voices said, the word both their answer and a threat.

As more and more blue flames poured out of Lith's body, the souls managed to shape the blue flames into a ring of fire that rapidly expanded and cut the snake into bits, freeing themselves from its snare.

Yet Valtak's Primordial Flames weren't lost. The Father of Fire recalled every bit of the fire construct and reshaped them into a fiery armor, but he knew things weren't going well.

"Get ready to run away, Tista!" He yelled. "Origin Flames are sparked by life force and a living being only has a finite amount. Blue flames, instead, are sparked by the death energy carried by the souls pouring out of the cracks in Lith's life force.

"The longer the door remains open, the greater the risk of Lith being consumed by the blue flames and we with him becomes. I don't know if I can win, but at least I can keep those bastards from winning."

A cold shiver ran down the Hekate's spine.

She had done everything she could, but nothing seemed to work against the blue flames afflicting Elisya and it was only a matter of time before the baby girl lost control over them.

Until less than a minute ago, Tista had believed Valtak to be invincible. The Elder Wyrm always exuded an unparalleled aura of might and his knowledge seemed endless. Yet not even he could win against the ravages of time.

Since the beginning of the fight, the Void Demon Dragon looked like an incandescent light bulb that becomes brighter as it stays on. The Fire Dragon, instead, was akin to a candle at the end of its wick, its light growing dimmer as it consumed the final drops of wax.

'Valtak can't use magic.' She thought. 'The blue flames would consume his spells and even if he manages to hit Lith, he would achieve nothing. You can't harm souls with magic.'

"No way! Even if I run, what about Elysia?" Tista cursed her bad luck and took out her communication amulet, alerting Solus. "Come here as fast as you can. We are in the usual spot!"

Before Solus could ask a single question, a deafening roar shook the Valley of Life and forced the Father of Fire to take a step back.

The souls had gained enough control over Lith's body to not only keep producing blue flames against his will but also to manipulate them freely. They compressed the remaining blue flame in the form of a spinning drill and shot it forward.

The souls had Valtak and Tista lined up so that if one dodged the drill, the other would still be hit. The blue flames were no faster than regular Origin Flames but the Fire Dragon refused to budge.

'I've caused this and I won't put Tista's and the babies' lives at risk just to save myself. I have no idea if those flames have more hidden abilities and I'll be damned before I let hatchlings get hurt on my watch!'

The Father of Fire roared back, stopping the shockwave and unleashing the Primordial Flames he had accumulated over his body.

The Elder Wyrm writhed in agony as the membrane of his right wing burned and he plunged to the ground with a thud. _{ƒrēewebnovel.com}
