Chapter 87: Chapter 87- Lykean, The Child Of The Azure Flame

*Swish*

The object was considerably big, appearing almost like a blazing blue comet in the air. The fire reached a certain altitude and then started descending and its direction was very clear.

Nobody understood what was happening for the first few seconds. But, when they realized what was about to happen, they snapped out of it.

"It's coming our way," Arthur muttered. "It's coming our way! Move!!"

Instantly, they all scattered away as fast as they could. A few seconds later, the blazing ball smashed into the deck and the fire exploded everywhere. The sheer shockwave sent everyone flying as they lost balance.

They smashed into the ground, rolling several meters away. Arthur barely stopped himself as he dug his nails into the ground. Looking up in shock, he noticed Danny still rolling down toward the edge of the ship.

'Shit!' Without thinking twice, he stood up and rushed toward him. At the very last moment, when Danny was about to fall, Arthur grabbed his arm.

"Hnng! I got you!" He said with a difficult expression. "Grab... The other hand... Quick!"

Danny looked up in shock. He didn't expect Arthur to be the one to save him from falling. He was stunned for a moment.

"Hurry!"

The second yell snapped him out of it as he quickly grabbed Arthur's hand then he pulled him up slowly.

"Hah... Hah..." Arthur heaved up and down and looked around him quickly. Luckily, none of the others ended up falling from the edge. Then, his eyes went to the blazing blue fire not that far away from them. It was so dense that he couldn't see clearly what was within the fire.

However, his senses were going off, alerting him to a very dangerous presence. A presence so strong that it sent chills down his spine. So far, Arthur only felt such a sensation from creatures that are leagues above him in strength.

"What the hell?!" Without thinking twice, Arthur scrambled to his inventory and chugged down several potions quickly to regain his stamina, mana, and health bars back to the maximum.

He knew that he was going to need that very soon after that. Whatever descended upon them wasn't there for peaceful reasons.

Slowly, standing up, Arthur looked closer at the blazing fire. That was when he saw a glimpse of a very tall silhouette. Its body was charcoal black like the other Burning Cadavers. However, the difference was that this creature didn't seem like it was burning.

Instead, Arthur could only describe it as being wrapped in those flames as if they were cradling it. Its skulls had shining eyes that pried through the flame and peered at Arthur, sending terror through his very soul.

"That hurts!!" The boy groaned as he looked at his hand. His claw was now frozen and rigid. The pain was naturally intense even with the 90% pain reduction that the game provides.

But, Arthur couldn't even have a moment to think as the monster attacked him again with more aggression. Its speed far exceeded that of Arthur so he found himself instantly in the defence, trying to dodge and deflect the attacks. However, every few seconds, he would get hit, feeling the Azure Flames eating his skin.

*BANG*

"Agh!!"

The boy flew back several meters, bouncing on the ground and landing on his stomach. The monster quickly chased after him to finish him off.

'Oh no!' Arthur felt the imminent danger and tried to stand up, but he was too late to dodge. 'I'm gonna get hit!'

However, at that moment, right before impact, a silhouette appeared out of nowhere.

*BANG*

With a swift kick, Isla threw the monster to the side with ease. The monster's body looked like a weightless flying away before it quickly landed on the ground.

"Are you ok, Arthur?" She rushed toward her companion and gave him a helping hand.

"I'm ok... Hah... That fucker got me good." Arthur grumbled as he looked at his melting hands. The ice was weirdly hard to break even though it looked like a thin sheet.

"This boss isn't going to be easy. That kick... barely did any damage to its health." Isla frowned as she looked at the monster's health bar. Even after getting hit twice, there was barely any change in it.

"... I am pretty sure this is our ticket out of the memory gate. If we want to conquer it, we need to kill this bastard." Arthur replied as he punched his sword's blade, making the ice burst into small shards.

"Easier said than done." She replied.

"Hahaha, who said it's going to be easy? Our friend here looks like he's eager to fight and we're going to give him exactly what he wants." Arthur grinned wildly as he took a fighting stance.

Isla exhaled a small breath as she unsheathed her sword. "You're odd." She muttered as a small smile appeared on her face.

A//N: Don't forget to give the book some golden tickets for good luck! :3
