pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ As the light from her attack began to recede, Melisandre waited with bated breath to see if Evelyn was okay.

She knew she had done as her disciple had asked, but she still felt panicked to have thrown her hottest possible fire magic at her even if she had resisted everything else.

Yet when she saw Evelyn, she let out a deep sigh of relief to see that she was completely unharmed.

But this relief soon turned into amazement, as she could not really believe that Evelyn was still unscathed from being hit by an attack hot enough to melt practically anything on the planet.

'I really took that without even getting slightly scorched.' Evelyn thought as she looked at her shoulder where the small ball of flame hit.

The heat itself had actually felt a bit uncomfortable when it touched her, but other than that no damage was done to her even though the floor around her had melted.

Luckily, she had not been on the ground when this happened, otherwise she would have been covered in molten stone which would have been difficult to get off.

When things began to calm down after a few seconds of silence, Evelyn raised her head proudly towards Melisandre.

"See, I told you that fire could not hurt me. I do not exactly understand it, but I am immune to be burned or overheated."

Nodding her head, Melisandre could only agree as she had witnessed it for herself the absolute ability to withstand fire that Evelyn had.

She was able to take a hit from fire hot enough to kill any other fiend beast just by being in its presence, showing her unnatural power that should not have been possible.

'As long as it is fire based, she can take the attack from even a peak sovereign beast like me. That is an ability far greater than any simple flame is capable of. I do not know what kind of power that crimson flame she has acquired is, but it must be something more exceptional than I ever imagined.'

Racking her brain Melisandre tried to come up with some sort of explanation for Evelyn's immunity to fire, but each was so farfetched that she found them hard to believe.

But when all other answers were impossible, all that was left must have been true, and this left Melisandre wondering which of the few possibilities she could come up with pertained to Evelyn.

"It seems that you really are immune to fire as you said you are." Melisandre said after approaching Evelyn and patting her on the back. "In that case even a place as dangerous as the inferno field will not be much of a problem as long as you are careful, but you should not let this power go to your head. There are still ways that you can be hurt by fire even if it cannot burn you."

An instant after Melisandre said this, she created a far larger ball of fire in her hand and caused it to explode in front of Evelyn.

Before she knew it, she had the wind knocked out of her, and she was flung back dozens of feet before impacting hard against a wall.

'Ow.'

Pulling herself up, Evelyn could feel dull pain all over her body from the impact she had just taken.

Certainly, the heat of the fire had not caused her and damage, but the sudden explosion's concussive force still did.

When Evelyn got back up, she could see Melisandre already standing over her with a smug look on her face.

"That is just one way that I already devised to harm you even though you are immune to fire. You need to be very mindful of your opponent's abilities even if you believe they cannot harm you." Melisandre said as she extended a potion to Evelyn.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Taking it, Evelyn downed what was obviously a healing potion and she felt the damage she had taken being fixed at an incredible rate.

"Now fly up into the air and wait for my next attack. I am going to show you another way I have devised to defeat you even with flames." Melisandre said, giving Evelyn no room to disagree.

Knowing that she had no choice and that this would be a good learning experience, Evelyn took up into the air and waited with her beak clenched for Melisandre's next attack.

To her astonishment this time instead of just a small amount of fire like she had been using up to this point, Melisandre unleashed a massive storm of fire and wrapped it around Evelyn like a twister.

Surprisingly as she braced herself for some type of damage nothing happened even while she was engulfed completely in a swirling storm of fire.

For a minute she just stayed there waiting for something to happen, but it never did.

Eventually she tried to fly out and tell Melisandre that whatever she was trying failed, but when she did the fire twister followed her.

She kept trying to get away from it, but wherever she went it followed.

Then after a few minutes she began to get lightheaded, and as she gasped for air none came to her.

All of the oxygen in the vicinity was being burned up by Melisandre's fire and there was not any left for Evelyn to breath.

Soon enough she began to collapse and fell towards the floor as her consciousness started slipping.

But right before she impacted, she felt someone catch her, and as she suddenly was able to breathe again her consciousness was slowly coming back to her.

"There, I believe that was a good demonstration of another way your immunity does not protect you." Melisandre said as she put Evelyn down.

As the fuzziness in her head from being asphyxiated started to clear, Evelyn looked towards Melisandre with both respect and fear in her eyes.

She had just shown Evelyn two ways around her immunity that she certainly would not have expected and would allow her to be wary of them in the future.

However, the fact that Melisandre thought both of them up so quickly was what scared Evelyn.

In only a matter of a few minutes she had devised multiple ways to kill Evelyn even with an element she was supposedly immune to.

"Thank you for showing me my weaknesses, Melisandre. You are right in that I was feeling overly confident in my ability to be immune to flames, and in the future, I could have been in trouble if you had not shown me what you did. From now on I will be careful even if my opponent is using fire magic." Evelyn said as she bowed her head in gratitude.

It was quite clear that Melisandre had just given her a bit of pain now so that in the future she would not be killed by her arrogance.

"I am glad you were able to understand what I was trying to teach you. But truly, your immunity to the heat of fire is nothing short of astounding. I know you wish to keep your powers a secret so I will not pry, but should you ever wish to tell me, I am all ears."
