Fenix Takes on Two Peak Conquerors at Once (1)

But Fenix was ready. With a burst of agility, he twisted out of the way and countered with a devastating upward slash. His Flareblade, now burning brighter than ever, carved through Velran's defenses, leaving a deep gash across the old man's torso.

Velran staggered back, clutching his wound. Blood mixed with water as it dripped onto the ground. "Impossible..." he muttered, his strength waning.

Fenix saw his chance and pressed the attack. He dashed forward, his movements a blur, and activated [Burning Slash] one last time. His blade ignited in an inferno of fiery destruction as he brought it down on Velran with all his might.

Velran raised his trident in a desperate attempt to block, but the force of Fenix's strike shattered the weapon, the flames consuming Velran entirely. The old man let out a final cry as his body was engulfed, reduced to ash in the overwhelming heat.
