Just as the flame that sprouted from Nixs back transformed into wings,

Crack!

A vine of ice suddenly wrapped around her body.

Perans eyes were cold.

The hottest flames that Nix utilised were the ones that came from her back.

To be precise, they erupted from her shoulder blades.

Those flames were so strong that they were able to instantly annihilate any spells 6-stars and below, but that was only when her wings had fully taken the shape of wings.

In other words, if the flames were only just beginning to appear, or if they hadnt yet taken the shape of wings, the temperature probably wouldnt be so high Or so Peran hoped, which is why he cast a spell trying to take advantage of that gap.

His experiment was a success.

He had managed to restrain her with just the 5-star spell, Ice Vine.

K-, kuh

Nix groaned and struggled, but it wasnt easy for her to break free of the Ice Vine.

This was because the Beginning Wind was still swirling around her.

Like a bonfire that could stay alight in heavy wind, the swirling blades of wind shattered any flames she tried to emit before they could become terrifying.

Nix couldnt help but tremble as a sense of helplessness filled her heart.

This guy Who the h.e.l.l is he?

Of course, she knew he was a Wizard. But she couldnt help but feel that he was fundamentally different from all the Wizards shed killed before.

Even the 7-star Wizards, high ranking Wizards who were known as Archmages, werent able to push Nix like this.

Looking at this scene, Lukas couldnt help but remain silent, almost forgetting about the pain in his abdomen.

Beginning Wind.

That spell, called Beginning Wind, was an 8-star spell.

Peran had been able to cast it perfectly. Even going so far as to use double casting.

In other words, that Wizard, who was currently suppressing Nix in the sky, had reached 8-stars at an unprecedented age.

Crack!

Nevertheless, despite his seemingly overwhelming advantage, Peran didnt let his guard down.

The Ice Vine that sprouted from his hands grew thicker, and gradually, more than half of Nixs body was encased.

Ack.

A soft moan escaped Nixs lips.

It was cold.

Needless to say, the cold was deadly for Phoenixes.

For them, becoming cold was the same as watching their approaching death.

Ice Vine.

Although it was just a 5-star spell, it was slowly but surely sapping Nix of her heat.

It hurts

The pain was beginning to make her feel light headed.

Beginning Wind was still scratching her all over her body.

At first, no blood came from the scratches. Her skin, which was being sliced apart, was restored almost instantaneously by the innate regenerative powers of Phoenixes.

Nevertheless, there was a limit.

Now, red blood was beginning to flow from her wounds.

Uh ah st- stop

Nix groaned and stuttered, but Peran didnt stop using his spells.

This wasnt the time to show mercy.

If he missed this opportunity, it was possible that he would lose and die.

Crack-

Before long, the Ice Vine completely covered Nixs body.

Nix was now completely trapped in a block of ice. She could no longer move, and she could no longer speak.

Rumble-

The final hit.

He gathered the remaining power of the Beginning Wind before shattering the block of ice into pieces.

The pieces were so small that even a Phoenix would not be able to put itself back together.

This fight was finally over.

Perans deep gaze slowly cooled.

* * *

Nix was alone in the dark.

-Are you leaving?

She heard a voice from somewhere.

It was a soft, fragile voice that seemed like it would shatter at any moment.

It was familiar. Whose voice was that?

-please take me with you.

Ah. She realised.

It was her voice.

After realising this, Nix couldnt help but question herself once again.

Had she ever said something like that?

-The best place for you is not beside me.

A gentle voice sounded.

For a moment, Nix almost burst into tears. She couldnt help but feel that shed heard this voice just recently too.

Where had she heard it? She couldnt seem to recall.

-Is there anything that you want to do?

However, every time she heard that voice, she felt her eyes tear up. Her heart began to ache as though it was being ripped apart.

I want to find my people.

That was Nixs answer.

The voice of her memory overlapped with her own voice at that moment.

-Dont be afraid of them rejecting you. Since youve become such a powerful being, you can become their shadow. Keep that in mind. (TL: This wasnt what Lukas originally said. PR: Author has memory issues just like everyone else lol)

-Is still there?

Who?

For a moment, she wasnt able to hear what her voice said.

-sharing a body with someone is not something that many can experience. Moreover, hes a monster who lived for almost 1,000 years. His character is poor, but your relations.h.i.+p doesnt seem to be that bad.

Lived for 1000 years?

Their relations.h.i.+p didnt seem to be that bad?

It was obvious that he was talking to her.

But she didnt know who he was referring to.

-Treat him well.

-Please take care of Nix.

At those words.

She felt like she heard a strange voice from somewhere.

-Hmph Naturally. If this woman dies, I will die as well.

It was a deep voice.

For a moment after hearing it, Nix felt like her head had been struck by a hammer.

Then, she felt her dreadful headache, the painful companion that had haunted her for years, suddenly disappear.

Right.

She wasnt alone.

Shed never been alone in the darkness.

She turned around.

There, she came face to face with a pair of bright yellow eyes. This pair of eyes, which were so large that they were as tall as she was, was staring intently at her.

This would have been a frightening sight for anyone, but not for Nix.

Instead, she smiled and whispered the name of her other half.

Torkunta.

(TL: So is she dead, or?)
