chapter 30 : war of two trumpets series 8

"Dragon is synonymous with fire. The main element of the sword is fire. Apart from that, you should know that there are several levels of fire that you can achieve." say kai. Currently they were facing off in the middle of a chaotic street.

"I just found out, that fire has several levels." Aslan said scratching the nape of his neck.

"Look". Point to the blazing bonfire.

"That is the basic fire of the fire element. Above it is blue fire ( blue Ignis ), then purple fire ( purpura ignis ), white fire (Santa Elmo), and the most powerful is black fire (amaterasu). There are also other types of fire which divided into several types. But of all the Fire, there is one legendary fire that can only be achieved by the gods. Blood fire (sanguis ignis)".

"Then how do I know what kind of fire I can reach?" Ask Aslan.

"You know it yourself." Said kai crossed his chest.

Aslan tried to think, though he didn't fully understand what Kai was saying. For him, all of them were like fantasy fairy tales that he often read when he was little. He never thought his youth would be spent fighting with disgusting creatures like mutants. Aslan closed his eyes trying to focus. Kai waited to see what the boy would do.

In his subconscious, Kai meets Ryujin again. Aslan and Ryujin's thoughts were now connected. So he knew what Aslan saw.

"Ask yourself, the power comes from your heart. Long ago, you were able to awaken the flames of Amaterasu for the first time." Ryujin said.

"Really, he's that great?". Ask Aslan.

"He's much more terrible than you imagine. But that's all because he has a very dark past. Just like you, his youth was spent on the battlefield. Blood and pain are daily food for him. He is no stranger to losing . But all of that made him stronger even beyond the devil". Ryujin said.

"Really? Then what should I do to find out my fire type?".

"I told you, ask yourself. Your heart will lead you".

Aslan looked back at the picture of the time when he was still hanging out with his family at the orphanage. Little Aslan was a quiet child. But Mikaela never gave up on approaching him. When the others were asleep, Mikaela always came over to Aslan, to read him stories every night. Indeed, Mikaela is the oldest of them. That made him have the responsibility to protect his younger siblings. The picture switches again when they escape from the city of mutants. Mikaela stole a map from the room of one of the mutants. but their efforts failed, Mikaela and the others sacrificed themselves to allow Aslan to escape.

"Mika...sorry". muttered Aslan.

The fog in his subconscious suddenly evaporated. Ryujin flinched a little. The aura there was hot and cold at the same time. From Aslan's body, steaming white energy evaporated. The energy forms a large flame and takes the form of flames. Kai smiled seeing Aslan managed to awaken Santa Elmo's white fire.

"Good work". say kai.

Aslan opened his eyes, he saw his body being burned by white flames. But he didn't feel the heat. Instead he felt at ease.

"So this is....Santa Elmo's fire?". Said Aslan.

"Only people who have gone through experiments can awaken such power". say kai.

"What with this power ... I can save Mikaela?".

"That depends on yourself, now fight me". say kai.

"Are you going to fight me with your bare hands?" Aslan said smiling condescendingly.

"Don't underestimate me, kid." Kai smirked. He took out a device similar to an injection. But the difference is that this tool has a bigger tube. Kai injects the tool into his body. Aslan was choked and confused by what Kai was doing. From inside Kai's body, a very strong energy exploded. Kai's right hand turned into a sparkling silver crystal.

"I've said before right? That my body has also been the guinea pig of an experiment?". Aslan nodded.

"In the past, there were some scientists who were very obsessed with gaining eternal power. The power that allowed them to live forever. They created a terrible virus called void. Those scientists kidnapped several people to be used as experimental material. I was caught by them at that time, was used as their crazy guinea pig. The other objects were killed because their bodies weren't strong enough to become the mother of the virus. At first I also thought I would die like them, but the image of someone made me determined to live. My body is suitable for that horrible virus, but the effect aside from that was losing consciousness. When my body, which was controlled by the virus, slaughtered all the enemies and scientists. It's not easy to return to being myself again".

Void?".

"That is my true power. That sword you have, is an object that functions to suppress the virus in my body".

"Then why did you give it to me?" Ask Kai.

"I told you, because you are the same as me".

Kai spread his arms, the silver energy around him spiraled into a scythe.

"Show me your new power". say kai.

"Okay". Aslan gripped his sword. White flames blazed wildly on Aslan's blade. He screamed and darted to attack Kai.

"Oi, what's the point of this, looks like someone logged into the database and deleted their data". Jessy said. Now he and Elena are in the data storage room. Elena, who was previously curious about Aslan, Ebell, and Daren. Trying to find data about them. He did not know where Guren found the three of them. Especially Aslan who is more mysterious than them. Especially about the demon that took over his body.

"Who?".

"Possible for sure, Lieutenant Colonel Guren" said Elena.

"Is he trying to go against the superiors of the squad?". Jessy said.

"I don't know, but if you can that's great. I always feel there's something strange about the superiors of the troops. Especially with Lieutenant General Hans." Elena said.

"Hah?".

"Human experiment, mutant, I have a feeling something bad is going to happen". Elena said.

The computer shows the data, from the three people who have been deleted. Don't know who did it. Either for a good cause? Or vice versa. The great war will again await them.
