Armipotent

Chapter 385 - Elder Giel

A few minutes earlier

The fire exploded from Kairu, swallowing a big chunk of the forest. The fire burned the trees and the land, even the Bombyx Mori army was swallowed by the fire.

"Abiel, oh Abiel! Fortunately, I came to check, if not we will lose a big force," a leisurely voice rang amidst the blazing fire.

Helia seemed to recognize the voice and warned Kairu, "Be careful, that voice belongs to the Elder of the main tribe."

Slowly a figure made of fire descended into the flame. The figure was two meters tall and had the same shape of wings as the Bombyx Mori, but the wings were made of fire.

There was no feature to the figure, it was just made of fire. The figure's face was flat, the burning fire. Kairu could not even find eyes in the figure.

"Your fire is quite strong," the figure spoke to Kairu, clearly the figure was more interested in Kairu than anyone else here.

Kairu did not respond to the figure's words as he merely scanned the opposite party. He was thinking about how to fight this figure. This figure was made of fire, he wondered if his fist could hit the figure.

"I never thought to meet someone this strong…" Kairu muttered, there was an excitement in his voice. Since he came to Earth, he only encountered a weak zombie. This was the first that he met a creature that could negate his fire.

"What about joining us instead? We can give you a spot as an Elder, what about it?" The fire being gave an offer to Kairu to join the Bombyx Mori Tribe.

"Not interested," Kairu declined the offer with a wide grin. He then rushed forward and leaped toward the air.

The Flaming Lion made an unexpected move, catching the fire figure off guard. Kairu's first was covered in fire and punches the figure made of fire.

Fwoosh!

The flaming fist passed through the figure. It did not have a physical body hence Kairu's fist merely passed through the figure made of fire.

"You might be strong, but you are choosing the wrong opponent," the figure made of fire spoke in a regretful tone, "Since you have decided to be our enemy, then I have to kill you here!"

The figure made of fire put his palm on Kairu's chest. Fire exploded, sending Kairu to the ground. The Lion Beastmen was spinning and crashed to the ground.

The black smoke rose, covering Kairu underneath. The first exchange told Kairu that his fist could not hit this weird creature.

"I will take care of this lion, you chase the other one, Abiel! Catch him alive if you can, but if you can't, you can kill the ape!" The figure made of fire commanded the Fire Bombyx Mori General.

The army was flying above the range of Kairu's fire because the being made of fire suppressed the fire with his strange power. It kept them safe from Kairu's fire.

"Yes, Elder Giel!" Abiel replied respectfully before he led the army of the Bombyx Mori to chase after Pride.

"Do you see this, Chief Helia! Your decision to betray us will lead your tribe and your kind to their doom!" Elder Giel finally looked toward Helia who was hiding behind the light protection.

"It's not too late to change your decision, Chief Helia. I can speak to Chief Head to pardon your sin. He may listen to me and will not punish you severely," Elder Giel tried to persuade Helia to change her mind.

The Light Bombyx Mori Tribe might be lacking in combat. But their ability to support the main force could not be doubted. The Light Bombyx Tribe's role in the war was crucial.

The reason Chief Head Vehiel did not help Helia's tribe was to corner her and her tribe. They wanted the Light Bombyx Mori Tribe to be dependent on the main tribe by reducing their numbers.

However, Kairu and Pride was the factor they never considered in their plan. They never thought that there was another tribe to help Helia. Kairu and Pride disrupted Chief Head Vehiel's plan.

"Heh, the fight is not over, Giel, is it?" Kairu stood in a shallow pit. His mane and fur turned into a fire, it made Kairu look like wearing a coat made of fire, "This is just the beginning!"

Elder Giel shook his head as he looked down at Kairu, "The fight is indeed not over, but you should realize that you could never win against me. Your false bravado will lead to your doom."

"Is that so?" Kairu was grinning widely at Elder Giel. The Flaming Lion picked one habit from his lord, the grin. He kept grinning at the enemy.

"I will make you realize that your struggle is futile," after Elder Giel said that, his figure shot toward Kairu, leaving a trail of fire.

This time, Kairu extended his two flaming fists toward Elder Giel. The flame in the shape of Kairu's fist shot toward the incoming Elder Giel. Kairu tried to fight the fire with fire.

"Ignorant! Your fire will never work on me!" Elder Giel did not bother to avoid the incoming flame. When the fire fists reached Elder Giel, the fire fists blended into Elder Giel's body instead.

In the flash, Elder Giel arrived in front of Kairu. He reached toward Kairu's neck and slammed the Flaming Lion to the ground. The burning ground cracked under the force.

Kairu was not crushed without fighting back. He tried to return the attack with a fist, but then his fist passed through Elder Giel's body.

'He can touch me, but I can't touch him…' Kairu felt a physical hand grab his neck for sure just now, 'I see, so that's how it worked…' He realized what happened.

"This is not over, ignorant cat!" Elder Giel stepped on Kairu's chest, pinning the Flaming Lion on the ground. After that, Elder Giel launched a barrage of fists toward Kairu's chest and head.

'I have to help… I have to help…' Helia wanted to help Kairu. She wanted to buff him with her spells, but she could not do that. If she tried to cast another spell, [Light Dome] would be canceled.

If [Light Dome] disappeared, her people would be this was a total one-sided battle. If she did not help, Kairu would be dead and her people would be troubled as well. Helia could not decide what to do as she witnessed Kairu get blasted by Elder Giel.

Elder Giel kept punching Kairu for a full minute. During that one minute, Elder Giel sent hundreds of punches toward Kairu. He was an Elemental Beast, his fire was his strongest attack. However, since the enemy also had the same element as his, Elder Giel realized that only a physical attack could work on Kairu.

Kairu stopped moving after receiving hundreds of punches. Elder Giel stepped on Kairu's head and looked toward Helia, "Chief Helia! Surrender and accept your punishment! Your tribe will be spared if you do that right now!" Elder Giel said in a threatening tone.

Elder Giel no longer wanted to delay the matter. If Helia stubbornly opposed him, he would do the thing by force. His fire would speak instead of his mouth.

Chief Helia looked down at Kairu. She could not see clearly what happened to the Flaming Lion, but she could tell that Kairu was still breathing. The lion beastmen was still alive for sure.

'Should I surrender?' She was in a dilemma. She was not worried about herself but her kind. Helia did not want her tribe to be destroyed because of her hatred for the main tribe.

Whoosh!

At this moment, there was a figure landed not far from them. Helia looked toward the figure. It was a human, a male human. The man did not have armor on his body, but she did not doubt that the human was strong for a human.

She was aware that the male human came from the sky. That meant he could fly, 'Is he the reinforcement Kairu talked about?' Helia could not help but become hopeful again.

She quickly noticed that the man was looking down at Kairu, 'I am sure now that he is the reinforcement, can he help us?' That was the question. Elder Giel was for sure very powerful.

"What is this? Does a pesky human come to give his life?" For some reason, Elder Giel showed a deep hatred toward the man. It could be detected from his voice.

Tang Shaoyang ignored the figure made of fire. He was carefully looking at Kairu and a frown formed on his forehead. He was confused.

'What is he doing? Why would he willingly get stepped on? Is he an M?' Tang Shaoyang wondered.

He detected stable breathing from the Flaming Lion. His eyes found superficial wounds around the chest and his face. But that was it, he was totally fine yet he was being stepped on. For someone who was prideful like Kairu, Tang Shaoyang was shocked and weirded at the same time by the bizarre situation.

"Are you okay, Kairu?" He could not hold back and ask, "Do you need help?"

"I am fine, My Lord!" Kairu replied loudly before he laughed very hard, "Caught you! Hahaha!"

Tang Shaoyang looked at Kairu, the Flaming Lion grabbed the figure made of fire's ankles with both of his hands.

"You can't run from me anymore!" Kairu was laughing hard as he was holding the ankles.

"What is this? Are they playing a game or something?" Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice.
