Master Of None

Midnight had puffed up her chest with a large breath and felt the incredible heat. However, she was not aware that there was more to this than she knew. 

She released her breath and with it, a brilliant golden flame of fire shot out at the Throat Ripper golem. The heat of the flame was enough to cause many o the hit parts to glow orange instantly. The outside armor even began to melt. 

This did not stop Throat Ripper since the internal gears were still working properly. It reached Midnight and tried its best to attack. Its arm coming down from above its head at Midnight. 

She easily dodged while she ended her flame breathing. She was in awe of her own attack but her instincts cried out to dash forward again while the golem was readying another strike. Miraculously the golden flames were still burning and Midnight had no choice but to slash through them to hit the golem. 

When she did slash out at Throat Rippers’ arm which was glowing orange with heat, she felt the puzzle pieces fall in to place. She could feel the golden flame still which was burning using her mana. It wrapped around her claws making them appear to be made of fire as well. 

When her claws made contact the heated armors fell apart like butter. Between the flames that were already affecting it and her claws wrapped in flames, Midnight was able to easily slice the armor it wor and even get to the gears on the inside of the arm. 

The feeling of being one with the flames didn’t leave her. They were still feeding on her mana to burn and she had no choice but to continue her attacks. Throat ripper was now more damaged than it had ever been. Its one arm was barely able to lift but had no face. This led the golem to make the decision to stomp on the ground. 

The heavy stomp caused a crack to form in the stone and direct floor shaking every dwarf and Midnight. This was one of the skills it had which separated it from the other golems. The genius golem builder had managed to add enough condensed earth runes on to the armor that made up the outside of Throat Ripper that it was defensively strengthened by earth elemental mana and it could cause a skill called quake stomp to happen. 

The stunning effect of the quake stomp affected the entire area. Midnight felt the force of another stomp coming, this time, right above her. Her reaction was to jump back with all her might and use her bone armor skill. The skeletal armor formed much more quickly than it had in the past. 

She rarely used the skill because she thought using it was against her pride. But at this moment she could feel that it was easier to create the bone armor and that there was more to it. The flames that were wrapped around her claws also traveled around the bone ar or that formed.

There were golden flames that slowly rose off of her armor making the heat she radiated even more potent. Something told her that the next incoming attack from Throat Ripper would not be able to do too much. 

Midnight jumped to the side and felt the other arm barely graze her. However, when she looked up she saw that part of the hand on the arm had become so hot it started to melt in to liquid metal. The arm had grazed part of the bone armor with flames on it causing this damage. Something that Midnight could capitalize on. 

After puffing up her chest with air she sent a small burst of more golden flames at the golem. Midnight followed up with an immediate slash with her golden flaming claws to the chest of the golem which caused even more damage. 

With a heavy thud, the chest piece of the Throat Rippers’ armor fell off and exposed the many clicking gears inside. The entire dwarf soldier training cave became silent as everyone took in a breath. The roars of battle cries and cheers came next from the dwarves who had never beaten this golem in training since it had been created. 

MIdnight felt the mana in her burning out and used her will to snuff the golden flames while backing away to allow the dwarves their attacks. She knew she was not alone in the battle and was not going to steal the battle experience these soldiers and her were here to gain. 

While she stepped back she came to be next to the royal guard again, ”I have seen two dragons in my life. Bith did not have flames as powerful as yours. I can tell that when you reach their age you may have the strongest dragon flames yet.” This wasn’t some baseless complement. The royal guard knew all too well the strength of dragon flames and how they could forge very powerful items due to their strengths. 

Midnight let the bone armor fall off and back to nothingness while she watched the Throat Ripper golem fall to the damage from the dwarves. They had expertly stopped the gear from moving on the inside instead of breaking it in to pieces. None of them, of course, could live with themselves if they completely destroyed a fine golem that was going to join the army with them. As of now all it needed was repairs to the melted armor that made up the outside of its body and replaces hand and arm. 

While calming herself, Midnight found that her heart was beating at a slightly higher and more powerful rate. It was as if she had gained the strength he had from the flames and it lightened her body. While she felt this she noticed the quest she had been given was complete and she eagerly tried to understand what it meant.
