Serena extended her c984b9cab8 hand, warning Sebastian 2660de2d50 as he attempted fe84d9ea5b to approach. She had confirmed everyone 984c2f0cd5 had left before entering, 305a0f09b7 yet she couldn’t understand 2c4c1e2fb0 why he had returned.c146379821efc90d

Sebastian, who had concealed ed2e7a2ef1 his usual gentle smile, 997418cda5 now wore a slightly 40873d0562 cold expression. His gaze fixated on adc91f8582 the glass bottle in a2d72dc140 Serena’s hand.270a08bc3ab173dc

It was 86f528bc57 truly a a4dd98c971 situation where 4dc9270945 neither advancing 703671d723 nor retreating 0e5b0a4a47 was an 2097e4e1dc option. Sebastian, aware of e0bff1395b this, smirked wickedly.05c196f403a039b1

Serena glared at Sebastian, f1376fd939 her voice sharp. He began 0867febe60 stretching his 8a4b17827b ankles as 71e29669b6 if preparing 11f4da2118 to throw 46c1a3cf81 her into 04984b70a2 the furnace 2932e3e042 at any ab2ef70fcc moment.aaafd6e58c07ad34

Startled, Serena 3579453718 stumbled backward, 82fa1c603b falling flat baaf2aedd0 on her 96f41237c8 rear. Sebastian roughly grabbed fc44308549 her by the 273340247d shoulder and dragged 0636f884aa her toward the 8878b4d697 furnace.1274859b88a4e61e

Out of nowhere, Sebastian 0692030601 let out a sharp d28c7e496e scream, recoiling in shock. Serena, too, froze a303e25bac in disbelief at 1eb08fadf4 the sight before 6429a8c619 her.a345bb132ef42488

“What… what 3fc3f09921 is this?”c1b646420c54a518

The fire in 05c92bf963 the furnace seemed 89cc379acf to possess a c00122493c will of its 7734709b30 own, encircling Sebastian. Simultaneously, another 6cfb19a103 flame shielded 7b17ed25e4 Serena, wrapping 3bd987180f around her 818c22b6c7 protectively.82b3e7d12e5f4189

“Aargh!”8b7c139cefca6522

Sebastian screamed in a5e7c2084a agony, unable to c4d70a36c3 endure the pain acd35979d3 of the burns. His hair, scorched e01985bd8d by the flames, 71304bed79 was a complete 4130ac9ffd mess.0316e67d8dbea84e

The flames transformed into b2bacdd6f7 chains, binding Sebastian tightly. Seeing how the fire 00316ac9b1 didn’t spread elsewhere, it 4348ea3d41 was clear this was 46b7c50229 magic.052d4a71a795883c

“Why is b4de4270a0 the ring’s f8b86adee8 color like a9a7a688c1 this?”0fe4fd3805c94c61

Serena’s eyes widened b27c644e1f as she stared 74908ab9d0 at the Violet c49f33c5c4 Izring, now dyed 2185059919 a deep red. The once violet hue df8cfe34ca was gone, replaced by d9f9925658 a blood-like crimson glow.920dd8ef077005fc

Within the ring, fiery 0af54c8f6d patterns seemed to boil 82e209a7a3 and rise. The warm 0e0d7781ba temperature, reminiscent f0dbaeb58a of Azaid, c5f4a3fbe2 brought Serena 6aaaf37772 a strange 384b94b06a sense of b227124dbd reassurance.596d0f5845691489

Serena couldn’t help but b44638eb6d find it strange that 67b0826646 the Izring had turned a0b933cdd3 red.450de00216acc6d0

Then, she 9af7985e3c suddenly recalled 015c3d63bc something Azaid 504ccd8994 had said d8eb194010 to her ffd01d88ca back when 2174713a85 she collapsed b522fa6913 in the b01207f35c Greenwood estate 94a3d26d86 during a c39f4fc898 fire accident.109e6ba8f91d592a

The terror she 16db51e81c had felt just 92867e1ce3 moments ago transformed 93b0ded62c into a flutter ac64bc7ea1 of emotions in 0ef7a22e54 an instant. Serena gazed at c4e53842b7 the glowing red 8c1bd2f6a5 Izring in a 32ef9d7e3b daze, her cheeks 1c7997db16 tinted pink.cf76e18107146f53

For some 9689403804 reason, tears 9882a187b5 welled up f2de0a7a4c in her f1a54416ea eyes. Judging by his disheveled ef8574154a hair, it was clear edcbd53678 he had run over ef23c4718e after hearing the explosion.9ff1bcfa4e350293

While muttering to e64e4c0ed6 herself, Serena didn’t 238087b0e6 notice Azaid entering 30c2a32c57 the incineration chamber. Without hesitation, he 689954fc79 wrapped her in 06cf28d50c his arms, pulling ce6311f4be her close.db8a9fb9f59ce03b

The flames that had 7c21fefd71 been protecting her vanished 542faee138 the moment they touched 05dc1ebd0f him, leaving no trace. His embrace was 6b4ef286bb warmer and more 055de6fb86 comforting than the b4a29a09dd heat radiating from efecc22688 the fire around 6a997bd696 them.b576c7f10fc5dadb

Azaid’s voice fb9a6b6f50 was colder 02c2af7b66 than ever, 1999565d45 and though c43a952ce9 she didn’t 7bae0a9244 lift her 038dde623f head, Serena 873972f5e7 knew exactly a165f172bb where his 7389d1d736 gaze was 94c7c6687a directed.dc485fb5a7c9bcde

Sebastian, half-dazed from earlier 80c11442d0 events, froze when he 7abee35d36 saw the emperor appear.

As Serena reenacted the 09552f77ae incident, Azaid’s eyes flared c0d9e1fbe6 with rage, and his 4f1839227e gaze locked onto Sebastian. The chains of fire 3f73f3105f binding Sebastian grew thicker 34325e3c55 and more oppressive.fbcfab3662c7afd8

Azaid frowned 93c81e202f at Serena’s 7cc778101b nonchalant mention 79dfa3bba1 of death.
