The duo moved through the daunting expanse, soaring faintly across the conflagration of flames that roared below.
Each second led to a different level of flames sweeping through the city, a perfect reminder to Kailen and his companion that any moment could be their last.
Whoosh.. whoosh.
Sometimes the flames would rise like waves behind them, as if attempting to swallow them whole.
However, Kailen would make use of his vines to accelerate their speed.
His companion would control some falling buildings to obstruct the flames for a moment, buying them a small moment to at least widen the distance between them and the flames attempting to swallow them, or at least buy them enough time for the waves to die down.
The cycle repeated itself over and over again.
Their bodies would faintly recover from being roasted with the help of universe-energy recovering elixirs only for the same cycle to repeat itself over and over again.
Despite the pain and torture, they held on and moved.
