#Chapter62
Gerald jumped as the ring around us caught fire, the heat warming us while my eyes glowed with excitement. How I had missed having magic.
/"That’s the best you got?/" Gerald taunted. I smirked before feeling the tether to my power strengthen, morphing it before I lifted my hands out to the sides above my head before tossing them down.
The flames exploded in a cylinder-shaped wall around us. The fire flew toward the sky, higher than the castle’s tallest point, and I chuckled while Gerald’s mouth fell open. I couldn’t see those standing outside our circle, but the murmurs at my reach with the flames had them gasping in shock.
/"Pretty sure I just broke the record for highest,/" I giggled.
/"Not the hottest,/" Gerald said with a cocky grin.
/"How hot is cutting fire again?/" I asked him.
/"Yeah, right, three thousand seven hundred?/" he murmured, admiring my towering wall of flames.
