Ishi's heart sank as he saw the torrent of fire coming towards them. Just by fluctuations, he knew his shield couldn't stop the fire. So, he ran up on the giant statue, taking spirit support. Ruchito did the same.
The fiery breath hit the giant statue, bathing it with red lava. The splashes crashed Ishit's shield, setting it on fire, and thus searing his back.
Appalled, Ishit flew off in the air. Ruchito was not doing too great. His icy armour had melted away. He had shot singed hair and eyebrows, scorching marks all over his face.
As for the statue, the fire caused no substantial damage to it except turning it black up to its waist.
"Where are you going now? " Adard called out laughing. "If I let you escape today, how can I face Udalf?"
He moved his hand, and the dragon roared as it moved its giant wings, sending flames everywhere.
A storm hit fleeing Ishit, causing him to lose his momentum.
