220 Chapter 220 The Fire Within

“Wait what?” Unsure of the fairy’s intentions, Sasha couldn’t help but exclaim.

Kyuru on her part didn′t show any change in her expression, the fairy was aware of Sasha’s insecurities regarding the use of that power within her but as sensitive as she was the fairy was also sure that the concerns Sasha’s were unfounded.

historical

“Any problem?” Kyuru asked.

Sasha was not sure how to answer such a question, the truth was that Sasha herself didn′t understand well the source of her powers, unlike the natural use of fire mana whose origin Sasha could understand; the vermilion flame was a completely different entity.

That’s right ... an entity, from Sasha’s point of view the vermilion flame within her, was like a living being in itself whose behavior and nature always seemed unpredictable, the only thing Sasha knew for sure was that the flame acted as a self-defense mechanism in dangerous situations; Sasha didn’t know anything beyond that.

“You’re afraid,” Said the fairy interrupting Sasha’s thoughts, Kyuru didn’t ask Sasha if she was afraid, no, the fairy didn’t need to; she knew that Sasha was afraid and planned to help this adorable alchemist overcome her fear.

Without waiting for Sasha to respond, Kyuru continued: “Desmond told me a little about what happened in your world, about what you are, who you are; I guess he must have told what he discovered ”

“Yes, I do appear to belong to a race called Solari’s vermilion lotus elves,” Sasha replied.

The fairy nodded and replied: “That’s right, you are also a natura.”

.....

“Natura?” Sasha asked puzzled.

“Desmond was as always, too lazy to investigate further about it, sometimes I don’t understand how someone so obsessed with always being prepared can be so negligent with some matters, But I guess no one is perfect.

Sorry I strayed from the topic, Natura, in general terms this can be considered a faction, but because the origins of its members are extremely similar, it refers to them as the natura race; in simple terms they are entities like you or me “Kyuru explained.

Seeing that she had Sasha’s attention and that Desmond was now being dragged by Athena in the sky; Kyuru continued: “I am a fairy and you are an elf, but we are both considered part of the natura, the reason is simple, we have a natural connection with nature; we understand nature, we are blessed by nature and we carry the power of nature.

That fire that you fear so much is nothing more than a blessing that nature grants you, I do not know the exact origin of your race, but I suppose it is closely related to that vermilion fire that burns within you.

That is why you should not fear it, it is not a strange parasite that lives in you, that fire is part of who you are and what you are, it belongs to you and it is up to you to understand its nature. ”

Sasha took her time to process the information that Kyuru had given her and she had to admit that she felt more comfortable now having heard the fairy speak about the nature of her race, but she was still afraid to take the first step toward understanding the fire that burned inside her.

Being Kyuru we were talking about, she felt the fear on Sasha’s part and thought that the young woman just needed one more push.

Knowing exactly what emotions she needed to evoke in Sasha, Kyuru did not hesitate and said: “Remember, remember what you felt the last time you let this fire come out of you, remember what you want to protect, how much you want to protect it; use that desire and make the fire bend to your will ”

Sasha did not answer, not that she did not want to answer, it was rather that she could not, after hearing the fairy′s words, Sasha tried to follow her instructions and remember the feeling she had that day; the day she showed the world her true form for the first time.

Soon she went into a trance state and Kyuru knew she was successful, the vermilion fire began to pour out of Sasha’s horns as if it were spring water, but instead of spreading through the place and burning everything in its path; instead the fire like a waterfall that flows in reverse rose by the body of Sasha clinging to her.

The fire adhered to Sasha’s body without hurting her a bit and the flames licked her skin in an almost playful way, little by little condensing no matter how much fire came out of Sasha’s horns, the size of the flame did not seem to increase, its color, on the other hand, it was changing as more fire was poured on her.

Soon a dress made of crimson fire enveloped Sasha’s exquisite figure, her horns the same color had lengthened a couple of inches and stood proud like the edge of a katana.

Her hair was like a trail of vermilion fire always burning constantly changing shape and swaying in the wind giving a spark of life to her essence.

And for the second time since Sasha could remember, she took her true form, leaving behind all shackles and fears, manifesting the fire that always burns within her and demonstrating why her adoptive mother named her Sasha Kor Ignis; a rose born of fire.

At that time even Kyuru had to acknowledge not only Sasha’s beauty capable of bringing down a kingdom but also the enormous power that the woman wielded in this form, if Kyuru’s estimates were correct when Sasha acquired this form she was almost as strong as Kyuru herself was; Unless of course Kyuru also decided to pull the Ace of hers up his sleeve.

However it was, Kyuru had to admit that Desmond’s luck was godly when meeting a girl like Sasha and bringing her home, the damn idiot got an alchemist with talent, strength, and absolute beauty; even Kyuru was envious of Desmond’s fate.

Sasha on the other hand had just come out of her transept state and witnessed once again the changes that occurred to her body, strangely she felt a feeling of comfort and liberation the moment she acquired this form, but seeing her body ... No, his entire essence turned into fire, Sasha still had to get used to it.

Kyuru noticed that Sasha had started to check her body, touch the fire, play with her dress, check her horns and look curiously at her burning hair; but Kyuru didn’t say anything and just stood there watching.

Kyuru knew that Sasha needed time to adjust and assimilate her new form or her old form? It was difficult to say, in any case, Kyuru was not in a hurry; As for Desmond? Kyuru seemed to see Athena playing catch with him 50m above the ground.
