Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 125: CHAPTER 125 – Emberbirth.

Alex gave both Alice and Ann a bloodline that suited them the most during the three-month break they had.

"These are the best bloodlines I could find that suited your personality and skills best."

This is what Alex said at that time.

But Alice and Ann were more than happy with what they got.

Alex felt that it was not enough but for Alice and Ann who had yet to know what having a powerful bloodline felt like, it was better than anything they knew.

The bloodline Alex gave them was just a rank higher than the lowest of their kinds, but if compared to the human bloodline, it was like comparing a lion to a cat.

Alice got a bloodline called 'Emberbirth', it was like a tamer version of fire spirits and the next evolution would make it a low-tiered fire spirit.

Fire spirits are like races that are equal to divine races, but those things are for later to be disclosed later.

"Drink it," Alex spoke, and Alice drank the red boiling blood directly without asking a question.

It tasted hot and spicy, like burning chilly, but other than that, everything was fine, but that was only for seconds.

It was after some seconds that Alice's eyes widened as she felt searing pain through her veins.

"AHHHHHHH!!"

She felt like her veins were on fire, her body was burning, her blood was burning, everything was burning.

"Alice!!"

Ann shouted and she was about to run towards Alice but then she heard a low whisper.

"Don't….." Ann stopped on her track as she heard Alex's words.

"She needs to go through that, she is turning into an Emberbirth, she needs to feel the fire in her veins," Alex spoke without taking his eyes away from Alice.

"I see…." Ann spoke as she stood beside Alex.

She knew that he would not let anything happen to Alice, it was what her womanly instincts told her, and she decided to believe them.

After a while, Alice finally calmed down, but she was still lying on the ground as she tried to calm her breath.

Ann looked at Alex and moved toward Alice as she saw him nod, but before she could reach Alice, Alice jumped up straight on the ground.

"What is this?!?!" She looked at Alex and asked in shock.

"That is the power, the power that will make you much stronger than you were," Alex spoke as he smiled looking at the excited Alice.

"That power gives you many things, starting with...…."

...................................................…

(Back to fight)

'I'm immune to fire, at least the fire that is weaker than mine, heh,' Alice sneered inwardly as she saw what the beast was trying to do.

'But well, I don't want my dress to be burned so let's not try my fire immunity right now.'

Alice thought as she waved her hand and just before the black fire touched her, her body was enveloped in an orange-yellow flame.

The black flames couldn't even touch those flames as Alice's flames were much stronger than them.

Then Alice looked at the beast and she could tell how delighted it was as it was thinking that it killed her.

'Heh.'

"You think your fire's the strongest, don't you?" Alice spoke and she could see the color drain out of the beast's face or feather? Whatever, but she could see that the beast's taunt feathers turned droopy.

Alice could tell that the beast was about to run so she waved her palm upward, making a pillar of orange, yellow, and golden mixed flames rise from below the bird/ beast, enveloping it completely.

The beast couldn't even scream as it died just like that.

"You should be proud and happy that you died from my strongest flames," Alice spoke as she looked at the spot where the beasts had died.

*Woosh*

But then the wind whistled and she could see Alex zooming towards the place where a pair of mother and daughter were sitting, stunned on the spot as a Darkfire screeched in front of them.

But it didn't take time for her to realize who that pair was, after all, they were quite famous as well.

Ann also looked toward Alex as she saw him running, and she also noticed who Alex was running to.

She turned to Alice and their eyes met for a second.

Both of them nodded at each other before they went back to taking care of the beasts as they were told without even sparing a glance at the boss monster that was already dead.

(Back to Max, after he moved toward the ice cream shop)

'I need to stop spoiling her too much...' Max muttered inwardly as he walked toward the ice cream shop.

He turned his head back to look at both Lily and Grace who were walking towards the bench and smiled.

'Well, maybe I'll spoil her for some more time, she'll stop sticking to me after she grows up anyway,' Max thought as he kept walking.

Then he saw Alex, Alice, and Ann walking together with Alice and Ann clinging to Alex's arms.

'Ah, youth- wait, I suddenly feel old...'

Max sighed inwardly as he arrived at the shop.

"What can I get you, sir?" The staff at the counter asked as she saw Max coming toward her.

"I don't know what it is called but my daughter said that it has both butterscotch and chocolate in it," Max spoke as even the last time, it was Grace who bought Lily the ice cream because he got a call.

"Oh, I get it, we only have one ice cream that matches your description," The lady at the counter spoke as she went inside to get the ice cream but then...

""SCREEECHHH!!!""

Everyone heard the screech of some beasts and from the voice, it was clear that it was more than 2 or 3 beasts.

The room stilled, and the people paused before they heard a shout from the outside.

No one knew who started first but one after another everyone started running, and Max who was shocked when he heard the voice also snapped back to reality.

'Lily!! Grace!!' The first thing that came to Max's mind was Lily and Grace.

He tried to run out of the place, but the exits were blocked by the people, and he couldn't use force as it would kill people.

Although frustrated, he joined in the crowd as they ran out of the exits.

'Please be safe, please be safe, please be safe...…' He kept saying repeatedly.

He prayed to whatever god that was out there.

'Just don't let anything happen to them….'

He finally got out of the store, so he directly dashed towards the bench where Grace and Lily were sitting.

He jumped above the crowd that was running away from the temple.

He jumped up and stepped from one person's shoulder to another as he kept running while wishing that his wife and his daughter were fine.

It was taking him time to reach, them but when he was finally able to see them, his heart almost stopped as his eyes widened.

"GRACE!!! LILY!!!!"

He shouted with all his might as he saw a Darkfire screeching at them.

He didn't care anymore as he smashed his leg downward with full power, intending to get a boost that would let him reach his wife and daughter on time, but he knew somewhere deep down that he wouldn't make it in time.

But then he saw someone running toward his wife and daughter with a speed much greater than his own.
