Infected?! Are you for real?

Due to the sudden attack Linri panicked. He had let his guard down and there was no way that he could react in time. If he had even seen it a second before it had happened he would be able to use his [Fire Shield], alas he didn't have that second.

[Fireball]

He created a fireball right next to his face where Natsumi bit him turning her head into ashes. The fireball materialised right on her face and encased it but that meant he was not spared by it either. Half of his face had burnt as a result. It hurt like hell but he had been through worse so it was not important. It was a blessing (curse) to have this much pain tolerance sometimes.

Anyway, the important thing was the fact that she had bitten him right on his carotid artery. For those who don't know the carotid artery was a vein located in the neck and pumped blood to the brain. It was usually where people took pulses if they can't feel any in the wrist.
