Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 317: Inevitable Battle - Part 3

As the heat from the fireball started to spread, the spectators in the Dome Hero started panicking.

Looking at the size of the fireball, it might reach them if it exploded hence the spectators stood up from their seats. Getting ready for the worst and running for their lives.

At the same time, Kim Jung-Mun also started to get anxious at the sight of the giant fireball. Even by looking at it, he could tell Ryan White's fireball was unusual.

He glanced at his two friends, giving them a signal to get ready to fend off against the fireball.

Ryan White did not try to harm the spectators or other people. The scale of his attack might reach the spectator seats but he had a way to prevent that from happening. He wanted to show off his bloodline power.

With a smirk on his face, he threw the fireball toward Heero. The giant fireball accelerated toward Heero at an alarming speed.

Everyone thought Heero would try to avoid the fireball but he did not. Heero did not even try to defend his body from the fireball. He just stood on his original spot with no sign of movement.

Swoosh!

The flame engulfed Heero and everyone gasped out in a shock upon witnessing Heero's body engulfed in the flame.

But soon, everyone realized something unusual. The fireball did not explode upon touching the ground. It stayed still at where it engulfed Heero.

Ten seconds passed just like that but nothing happened. No explosion, nothing happened afterward. The fireball stayed still on the same right spot.

"Huh?!" Even Ryan White himself who threw the fireball was confused. This expression was caught on camera which was directed at him.

"Huh!? Ryan White seems also confused, so what actually happens?"

Amidst the silence, Zhan Ling's voice exploded and filled the whole arena. She was acting as the commentator as the screen at the top center arena split into two, showing a different sight, a giant fireball sight, and the confused Ryan White.

Zhan Ling was asking her partners, Master Yun Ji, and Master Park Song-Hoon.

"I am not sure myself, but this giant fireball is Ryan White's new secret technique"

Having not finished his words, Zhan Ling's voice cut him off, "Look! Something happened with the giant fireball!"

Her exclaimed voice drew everyone toward the direction of the giant fireball. Sure enough, something happened with the giant fireball. The giant fireball shrunk visibly.

It was as if there was something sucking the fireball. Just like a black hole devoured the fire.

In five seconds, the giant fireball vanished. With their own eyes, everyone saw the fireball was sucked into Heero's palm.

That was right, Heero remained unscathed after getting hit by the giant fireball. The Heero Academy martial clothes were perfectly fine even though he was getting engulfed by the giant fireball.

"What was that? What actually happened?" Zhan Ling rose from the couch and screamed.

She had become a host for many events, but this was her first time witnessing such a scene. She just did not know what to say about what happened in the arena.

Unfortunately, the two partners that were hired to accompany her also left speechless. They did not know what actually happened either. However, Master Yun Ji's eyes quivered at this sight as a thought crossed in his mind. He wanted to speak but he immediately shut his mouth.

Woaw!

The spectators also gasped in surprise.

Heero himself looked up to the sky, toward Ryan White who was floating in the air.

"A nasty crow bloodline, is it?" He muttered under his breath.

Despite lowering his voice, Ryan White still could hear him. A trace of surprise could be seen from his face.

"Do you want to play with fire? Then I will accompany you!"

Swoosh!

A pillar of fire shot up from Heero's feet, bringing his body toward the sky. His body was shooting through the air, accelerating toward Ryan White.

With a fist covered in flame, Heero delivered a punch toward Ryan White's handsome face.

Heero's speed was fast but Ryan White still could see that. He twisted his body in the air and dodged the fire fist.

Just as he thought of countering Heero's move. He saw a foot covered in flame on top of him. In such a situation, he could only think of dodging foot as it descended toward him.

Swoosh!

He managed to dodge another attack, at the same time, a fire wing formed on his back. With a wing on his back, he easily maneuvered his body in the air and created a distance from Heero.

"Not bad, but not good enough to beat me" Ryan White smirked at Heero. At the same time, he pulled his sword from his back.

"You have to hit me to defeat me!" With his left hand leaned forward, he motioned Heero to come toward him.

Heero merely let out a small laugh at Ryan White's taunt and replied with a smiley face, "Didn't you realize that your fire was not working against me?"

"Who knows? You have not tasted my sword technique yet!"

Ryan White held the sword with his two hands and put abreast of his chest. Soon, the crimson flame lit up, from the handle toward the tip of the sword.

He closed his eyes for a second and the moment he opened his eyes. His body vanished and appeared again right behind Heero.

It was like teleportation. As soon as he appeared right behind Heero, he slashed his sword horizontally, aiming at Heero's waist.

In such a moment, the spectators were holding their breaths. If the sword hit Heero's body, the body would split into two for sure.

Clang!

At the last moment, Heero turned around, and clanking noise resounded. It was the noise of metal colliding together. At the same time, a spark of flame burst out in the air.

Woaw!

The spectators gasped at the sight. They were pretty safe now as the clash was in the air.

Earlier, Heero was holding nothing in his hand but now he had a halberd in his hand. He reflected the fire sword with the halberd.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

Ryan White continued with his barrage of slashes toward Heero but each of his attacks was reflected by the halberd.

Each time the sword and the halberd struck, the bright flame burst out. It was amazing to behold.

'Ah, f*ck! How could he read all my slashes?' Ryan White was frustrated as all his attacks were blocked.

The spectators might see his attack as a single attack, but it was not. It was a technique he learned inside the dungeon, Thousand Slashes. He delivered a thousand slashes in the span of twenty seconds, a thousand slashes of reinforced slash.

Each of his slashes contained a destructive Divine Crow Flame, yet Heero reflected all of it easily.

'Thousand Slash does not work then what about this!'

With a flap of his fire wing, Ryan White's body shot upward. Soon, his figure became a small dot in the sky, and once again the spectators gasped at the sight of this.

Heero also raised his head and looked toward the retroceding figure.

"What are you up to now?" Heero muttered as he squinted his eyes.

Soon his question was answered as Ryan White's descending figure came into his sight. But he did not come alone, dozens or even hundreds of fire swords shot toward him.

He had his sword pointed toward him. This time not only his sword which was covered in flame but his body too. They together shot toward Heero.

This time, the spectators could no longer watch the match calmly. If Heero failed to defend against the flame sword, they would become the target of the sword. Or if Heero tried to dodge, the hundreds of fire swords would come for them.

That was Ryan White's plan. He decided to launch his attack from the top so Heero would not dodge his attack. If Heero tried to run away the innocents would die from his attack. He wanted to use the spectators to make sure Heero did not run away from his attack and it succeeded.

As the spectators started to panic, Heero raised his right hand.

Fwoosh!

From his palm, a crimson flame spread out. It spread out and coveted the top arena with the flame, forming a flame shield.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The countless explosions could be heard from the other side of the flame shield. Heatwaves started to ravage the spectators, but they were safe.

"Tsked, you have gone too far to use the innocents!" Heero read Ryan White's mind.

"I think these people already have enough entertainment, it's time to end this battle!"

He clenched his palm into a fist and the flame barrier disappeared. It was as if the flame was sucked into his fist, turning his right-hand red as if all the flame and explosion resided in his right hand.

As soon as the flame disappeared, Ryan White's dazed face came into Heero's sight. He must be shocked as suddenly all his flame swords disappeared.

Then Ryan White's eyes landed at Heero's right hand which was turned crimson.

"Don't tell me he absorbed all my flame into his right hand" He muttered as he could not believe what he saw.

"How could that possible, it's Divine Crow Flame It's not possible!"

But then, Heero appeared right in front of Ryan White with a big smirk.

"Kekw! There's nothing impossible! Why don't you taste your own fire!"

Heero then held Ryan White's collar and raised him up. With his red right hand, Heero punched Ryan White in the belly.

Fwoosh!

Ryan White's body curved up and flame pushed through his belly upward to the clear sky.
