Chapter XXII – Fire

"Alright, boys!" Alruna shouted. "We’ve got to fight this thing!"

Bjorn pulled himself together, it seemed like he still had a bit of [Berserk] in store. He grunted, tensing his muscles and shouting like a wild beast. Alruna got ready, knees slightly flexed, her sword forward.

Before Blake could think of something, flame burst out of the creature’s mouth. The three lunged out of its path and hid behind the rocks, the air around them becoming like a furnace. Blake feared that his hair would catch fire. He breathed in, feeling hot air entering his nostrils, telling himself that it was an illusion anyway. Monsters were different, as far as he’d heard; they had much higher stats and life-force than normal Jotnar. He focused to visualize the dragon’s HP: It was [340/340]. Higher than his and the [HP] of any Jotun but far from the power of a god.

Suddenly, the dragon’s flame halted.

"Now what?" he asked both Alruna and Bjorn. They peeked from behind a rock.

"One of us should keep him distracted while the others attack," she said.

"What are the odds?" Blake asked. "Have you killed a dragon before?"

"Yes," she said. "In the Warrior’s Dream, and with a more experienced crew, no offense. We should really get to work and kill it, because if not, we’d have to go through the whole test again and I don’t want to go through that."

"Same here," Blake said. "So, you said distract it. How do we do that?"

Bjorn jumped over a rock, facing the dragon, raising both arms high, holding the ax on his right.

"I’m here, you filthy animal!" he shouted, just as the dragon opened his mouth again and spat fire directly at him. The Norseman delivered a powerful leap, jumping over the dragon. The creature looked upward, flame following him like water pouring from a pressurized hose, trying to burn Bjorn to a crisp.

Bjorn prepared mid air, holding his ax in both hands and getting ready to swing downward. He whirled once, curling into a ball mid-air and striking the dragon’s head.

Blake noticed a dent in the dragon’s power level. Tiny and inconsequential when compared with its life force.

[Dragon has been hit: HP-5]

[335/340].

5 points. Bjorn had barely scratched the creature. The dragon didn’t like it. It grunted like a devil, twisting its neck like a massive fish out of water, trying to get Bjorn off his forehead.

"That looks terrible," Blake hissed.

"Could be worse," she said, as she strung her bow and prepared to shoot. Bjorn was thrown to the side, bouncing off the rocky ground and grunting.

"Now, I have more experience here," Alruna said. "Do what I say. You have [Vali’s Leap] so you can jump faster than Bjorn. Distract the monster and get out of the way before the flame hits you. It’s fast but not as fast as you."

"Alright, let’s try it," Blake said, determined to win.

He activated [Vali’s Leap], leaping over the rocks like the hero from a Chinese martial arts movie. "I’m doing it," he said.

"Hey,
