The red minigun paused for a second, as though trying to observe the scene in front of him. Sam had already ducked behind a counter, taking cover. However, Kairos decided to take off his glasses and strain his eyes to remain open.
Sam panicked when he saw that Kairos was still standing out in the open.
"Take cover! That thing has far too much firepower!"
Kairos did not listen. Instead, he grit his teeth and continued to channel mana into the fireball.
"Don't worry. I will be fine."
The fireball continued to slowly expand, causing some of the nearby clothes to start smoking.
As for the minigun, it continued to stare at the scene in front of it, almost like it was trying to comprehend what exactly was in front. Kairos fully intended on taking advantage of the lack of response, and was confident he would be able to dodge if it did begin firing with the one second of warning he would get.
The fireball expanded to a diameter of one meter, then two.
