The Simple Life of Killing Demons

Book 12: Chapter 85

Book 12: Chapter 85

Upon seeing that Lin Xiang was hesitating, not responding, Bellina, with her back turned to Valarie, showed a ferocious expression to Lin Xiang and spoke in a voice so low that only the two of them could hear, "Hurry and agree with me, you soulless fool. Otherwise ouch hot!" Before Bellina could finish her sentence, she screamed and jumped up, clutching her buttocks.

Meanwhile, Valarie came behind Lin Xiang, hugged him, and flew up.

"Master, please be careful."

"Wow!" Lin Xiang watched as the ground became more distant, and the figures of Silent Water and the others grew smaller. He took a deep breath.

The sensation of being seated while flying and being carried while flying were entirely different.

"I've never seen you use magic," Valarie said.

"Huh? Is that so? Well, I think I mentioned when we first met that I can't use magic. Setting aside the complex spells, I'm not suited for magic myself. My situation is a bit peculiar, which causes magic to go out of control, making it more destructive. It's fine if it's only fire magic, because thanks to Valarie, I'm immune to fire now and can use it when there's no one else around. But, if it's other magic, I could end up harming myself."

"Correction. You are not immune to all flames, just to most ordinary flames."

"Ah, I know about that."

Freed once told Lin Xiang that some flames were special, such as those with consciousness, which could harm Lin Xiang.

Just like how two fire dragons would ordinarily dwell near the mouth of a volcano. They would naturally be immune to the high temperatures and flames that came with molten lava.

However, if the two fire dragons were to fight, the fires from both sides would surely harm each other. That was because each dragon had their own unique flames, containing their consciousness within.

"Yes. I'm looking forward to your magic. I want to see what i looks like when your magic goes out of control," Valarie said.

"Little Valarie, wait for me!" Bellina's voice came from behind, and soon enough, Bellina caught up, flying alongside Lin Xiang.

"Little Valarie, wouldn't it be tiring to carry this clumsy human? How about switching with me?"

Hmph, once you're in my hands, I'll drop you, Bellina's gaze toward Lin Xiang seemed to convey such a message, leaving Lin Xiang concerned.

"No need for you to do it. Also as I said if you don't listen I'll ignore you."

"Ahh! Please don't do this, Little Valarie! I'm here to help!"

Valarie remained indifferent, truly ignoring Bellina.

"Well, Valarie, humans have a saying: Many hands make light work. Let Bellina come along." Seeing Bellina almost on the verge of tears, Lin Xiang spoke up for her, knowing that his magic would not harm her.

"Since you say so," Valarie looked at Bellina, "Youre allowed to come along."

"Little Valarie! You're so kind! Thank you."

"Dont thank me Thank him."

"Tsk. Thanks then," Bellina said casually, a stark contrast from her previous joyfulness, now filled with discontent.

"Hah" Lin Xiang did not mind either as he looked into the distance, the small black dots gradually drawing closer.

Through the group of dragons, Lin Xiang exerted his utmost vision and could see those bats with fur, wings, and visible veins. The bats, with irregular and jagged teeth, were hovering in the air.

"Hummm~" It seemed like Lin Xiang could somehow "see" the sound waves spreading towards them.

"Ugh." Lin Xiang felt a sharp pain in his ears, accompanied by a sudden throb in his head. It was not overly discomforting. He just felt a few seconds of uneasiness surging when the sound waves arrived, then everything became normal.

Valarie adjusted her flight a few times but eventually stabilized.

"Get a bit closer to them."

"Mm."

"No need to get close to those ugly creatures, Little Valarie, watch my moves," Belina said as she was about to unleash her dragon skills, but another sound wave came, forcing her to cover her ears.

"What's wrong, Valarie?" Seeing Valarie frowning, Lin Xiang knew she was in pain, although her expression did not change much.

"It's very noisy The noises inside my ears are very chaotic."

Lin Xiang did not have the same feeling as Valarie.

Dragons can perceive sound wave frequencies higher than humans. You're a half-dragon, so you can perceive slightly higher than humans, but you haven't reached the level of a dragons, so this ultrasonic wave won't affect you much. Instead, itll significantly affect dragons, explained Freed.

I see.

In that case, they needed to act swiftly.

"Valarie, hold on a bit more, get closer to them, I'll use magic immediately."

Valarie did not respond; she must have been uncomfortable and unable to speak. Unlike Belina, who was screaming while covering her ears, Valarie focused on the bats, trying hard to maintain her approach.

Lin Xiang also tried to recall Rsa's teachings, which was the highest middle-ranked magic, The Flame of Hell."

Though named "The Flame of Hell," the fire magic had no relation to hell. It merely emitted flames of higher density, darker in color, and stronger in attack. This magic had two modes: the first was the dispersion mode, covering a range of twenty meters around the caster in a sea of fire, while the second was the compression mode, compressing the Flame of Hell into a fireball to be thrown, and then explode upon impact.

Due to having those two modes, which were capable of both close and long-range attacks, enemies found it hard to defend against. Hence, it got its name "Flame of Hell."

Lin Xiang did not know how to operate the compression mode, as it required a certain understanding of fire-type magic. Therefore, he needed to release his flames around the bats.

100 meters, 70 meters, 50 meters. As they got closer, the impact of the sound waves increased, and Valarie seemed to struggle more. Yet, she flew steadily, unlike Belina, who was flying erratically.

"Alright! I'm starting! Bellina, be careful."

Ignoring whether Bellina could hear him or not, Lin Xiang closed his eyes and began to meditate on the magic and incantations in his mind.

Magic was materialized by the caster through meditation and then actualized by magical power. Incantations were aids to facilitate successful meditation.

Releasing magic as a novice was complicated and slow, but with practice, it could be released more efficiently.

Undoubtedly, Lin Xiang was a novice. Simple magic like Fireball was manageable, but more advanced spells like "Flame of Hell" were another story. After finishing the incantation, the seaof fire in his mind slowly took shape.

"Hah!" With a bursting shout, Lin Xiang also yelled out the sea of fire from his mind.
