The battle was basically over. The giant lizard Dark Erosion Beast, which had accidentally broken through the defenses and entered the settlement, was severely injured and on the verge of death.

Evan, the young man who was trying fighting for the first time, was in good condition and full of strength. His initial injuries had almost completely healed.

"hiss……"

The giant lizard lay on the ground, its injuries severe, but the Dark Erosion Beast's tenacious vitality allowed it to twitch and roar.

At that moment, Evan, who was not far away, simply watched.

Stand there, keeping a certain distance, and slowly walk around the giant lizard, preventing the dying monster from locking onto its location.

Caution and courage are not antonyms. He has the courage to face the Dark Devouring Beast head-on, but he will not risk his life unless necessary.

Watching the Dark Erosion Beast walk towards its death in silence, Evan also savored the feeling of the battle just now, feeling the continuous heat still flowing through his body.

"Tick-tock..."

The dagger in his hand, dripping with the blood of the Dark Erosion Beast, took lives with its weapon. Evan felt no fear, only a calm.

"Thump... thump..."

In less than half a minute, the frequency of the giant lizard's convulsions decreased, and it finally lay motionless on the ground.

The body stopped moving, the ground was covered in blood, and almost all of its internal organs had spilled out; it looked like it was truly dead.

"It's hard to say. What if this guy is faking his death to fool me?"

He had read some translated versions of otherworldly books, and one sentence in them made a lot of sense: "Never open champagne halfway through the game."

The Dark Erosion Beast seems to be dead. But what if I go over to check and it suddenly goes berserk, giving me another tail swipe...?

Thinking of this, Evan recalled the feeling of the first time he let the flames leave his body, and came behind the giant lizard Dark Erosion Beast. At a distance of about six meters, he kicked out.

"boom……"

The familiar flames erupted from his legs once again, tracing a golden arc in mid-air before finally striking the target.

The giant lizard, the Dark Erosion Beast, was now completely engulfed in flames (literally), its body convulsing a few more times amidst the fire.

"I knew it. Luckily, I was cautious."

This time, the flames were even more effective. The golden fire entered the giant lizard's abdomen through the wound, heating the Dark Erosion Beast inside and out.

Now, this monster can be considered an acquaintance of Evan's, or rather, a familiar beast.

The meat was charred and carbonized, and it smelled like roasted meat. It was truly dead now.

"What is the principle behind your miraculous power?"

Evan was more curious about his own flames than the already dead giant lizard, the Dark Erosion Beast.

When the enemy was completely dead, the consumed flames had already been replenished on their own, and there was still no feeling of physical or mental exhaustion.

Moreover, the flames were enough to kill the Dark Erosion Beast, but they didn't burn his pants.

"Powerful enough, easy to use. According to the furnace casting theory, I need to absorb external energy and turn it into flames."

If I could use this flame right now, wouldn't I be able to master it instantly?

Standing far from the corpse of the Dark Erosion Beast, in a spot where he could easily observe his surroundings, Evan heard a series of hurried footsteps.

"The last one to slip through the net, speed things up."
