'How is this thing so strong?' Arthur struggled to think.
'You forget that the last time you were facing Knol, you had flame essence to help you. Have you already forgotten how fast Knol and his comrades were? Even with your flame essence, they managed to drive you into the trees,' his phoenix replied.
