Chapter 10: Challenger

Xaide's pulse quickened as a wave of terror gripped him. The dancing flames eluded his command, leaving him uncertain of how to harness their power. His anxiety heightened, a visceral fear clawing at the edges of his composure.

"Yoo, this is madness again. Fate keeps messing with me," Xaide muttered, frustration etched on his face. A determination, fueled by a need to protect the mysterious "loli" beside him, sparked in his eyes. "I need to take her and run as far as I can before those one-eyed creeps realize."

In the midst of this chaos, a torrent of information flooded Xaide's mind like the relentless tides of an unyielding ocean. It revealed the intricacies of his latent power, the purpose of the trials, and the path he must tread to bring an end to this enigmatic challenge.

A shift occurred in Xaide's countenance, a subtle transformation from fear to a deep sadness. The weight of responsibility settled upon him, and he understood the gravity of the trials that awaited.

With a scowl and an intense, icy gaze, he demanded, slashing his hand diagonally, "Are you guys done laughing?"

In his grasp, a flickering white flame blended with a hint of bluish hue. Inverting his hand, he uttered, "White hole." A miniature black hole-like fire manifested, fueled by the white flames. With a gesture, he released it into the goblin horde, their grotesque forms drawn into the abyss. Only ashes emerged, remnants of the once menacing group. The white hole vanished as swiftly as it appeared, leaving an eerie calm in its wake.

Yet, amidst the desolation, one goblin remained unaffected, standing defiant against the arcane forces. Xaide, momentarily stunned, quickly composed himself, ready for the unexpected twist in this surreal ordeal.

The goblin spoke with an unsettling calm, "How do you think a fire can swallow a fire? Let's see who is strongest between us."

Green flames danced on the goblin's hands as it advanced, disappearing with unnerving speed. A fiery punch sliced through the air towards Xaide, who effortlessly dodged, countering with a swift uppercut that sent the goblin crashing into a nearby tree.

Undeterred, the goblin, seemingly impervious to the flames, taunted, "Weak humans, haha, you can't kill me."

Xaide's gaze turned glacial, resolve etched on his face. Placing his hand on the goblin's face, he declared, "Overdrive." The air crackled as an overwhelming surge of fire enveloped his hand. The goblin froze, transformed into an intricate ice statue. Xaide clapped his hands, shattering the frozen visage and ending the goblin's defiant laughter.

"By the way, I am a challenger not a human!"
