"You're kidding, right…?"

Shirley looked at the white-hot flames dispersing from the few hundred-meter radius as they gathered towards the center. No, she could sense that they were being absorbed.

What she imagined to be molten slag from that statue didn't appear in her vision. Instead, as the white-hot flames were absorbed, the sight of the stone statue came into her view. It absorbed the entirety of the Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration and appeared unharmed, causing Shirley's eyes to twitch.

Now, she finally understood what Dewzai meant by her statement.

Ridiculously enough, Shirley could sense phoenix undulations brimming from the statue at this moment as white-hot flames rose up and manifested into a fire phoenix.

"This is too much…!"

Shirley complained.

She turned around and ran, hopping thrice in a row to gain momentum and to fly away to another circular spatial platform, but the platform was endless, so she prepared to dodge.
