Clang——
As the fire tongue reached out toward the crowd, the blade in Ronald's hand struck.
A sword with astonishing might collided with the fire tongue extending from the Flame River with a 'bang,' and fireworks-like sparks bloomed around.
"..."
"Wooo——"
Hearing the commotion around, the creatures lying on the ground immediately began to wail in despair.
Having endured so long in this city, they didn't even need to look up. Just by hearing these sounds, they understood what was happening now.
As expected—death would soon arrive.
However, Ronald didn't think so. With the first slash, he immediately split the approaching fire tongue in two, and then, with a surge of magic power, shredded the still-active fire tongue into pieces.
The fire tongue was destroyed, but the Flame River didn't pause for even a moment.
Three fire tongues, thicker and more powerful than before, extended downward with a fierce hot wind, slapping towards the defiant Ronald.
Boom——!
