William was pleasantly surprised to see the improved bonus effect of his Heat Resistance Talent. He wanted to try it out immediately, but increasing the power of his Fire Magic wouldn't increase his resistance any further so it was useless for the moment.
Not to mention he was still disguised as Serio, so neither the Fire or Earth Elements should be used here.
With his now incredibly high resistance to fire, William dove back into the white flames. His body swam forward at a normal pace, completely unbothered by the intense heat.
What used to feel like an uncomfortable 38 degrees Celsius now felt like a cool summer breeze, barely noticeable. Even as he dove deeper, the temperature hardly changed until he reached the very center of the flames, where the uncomfortable feeling returned.
It's still a bit too much to stay here for a long time, but I've made it to the center now. System, can I absorb this Greater Fire Vein now?
