"First we'll go over the boring part. The heat of your fire, as yah know varies with your emotions yet it can also change colour based on how hot it is. Usually the lighter the colour the fiercer the fire. Yours are an exeption though, since their hot as hell, litterally."

" Bad pun." deadpanned Ryuu to his teacher's attempt at a joke

"Ugh. Anyway, even as hot as the may be, bright blue fire still burns hotter than them, and that's around the top." were the words of Surtr the 2nd as he summoned a blue flame on top of his finger.

"What about white? Shouldn't a white flame burn the hottest?"

"In theory, yes. But the only time it is thought that might've happened was the Big Bang, 'n I ain't sure it even did happen with so many allmighty gods around." admited Surtr some anged being felt in his voice.

"Well I thought yah what yah needed to know. The best trainin' s practice after all."

"I figured that much."

FUUUUSHHH was the sound of Ryuu keeping a continous stream of fire emanating from his hands.

"Isn't the time up? I fell my blood starting to boil!" shouted the youth in the direction the ginger giant(can't believe I didn' t planned that) who was drinking sake like it was water, checking the clock from time to time

"Two minutes left. And get used to the sensation! " yelled the drinker back just as loud

"How come he isn't drunk? I've been doing this for almost ten minutes and he just kept drinking."Don't give it too much thought. He's probably burning the alcohol out of his body. conversed Ryuu with the Demigod Dragon in his mind.

"That would explain it. BUT WHERE IN THE BLAZES DID HE PULLED THE OTHER FOUR HE DRANK ALREADY FROM???!!"Some mysteries shall remain unsolved.

"Time's up. Take a break." said the alcoholic rook while finishing the fifth bottle and getting another one out of nowhere.

"Pant. Pant. You sould stop drinking, you know."

"Don't yah start too!! I already got Mathers and Grayfia on mah back about it!!"

"At least explain me how and where do you get all of the sake from."

"Ohh, so you go and tell' em later? No way yah brat!!" exclamed the outraged giant while gulping the bottle in one go

"Was worth a try." simply smiled our hero while shrugging it off

"Anyways, that's enough rest. Show me how hot those flames really are!"

"You're kindding, right? right?"

"Come on kiddo, give it your all!!"

"Easy for you to say." said the readhead half-blood while heavily panting, most of his garments having been burnt to ashes.

Awaken! was the sound of his Sacred Gear, Deep Slumber Draco, as he felt his power skyrocket.

Suddenly a huge stream of fire was sent towards his target, following to be dissipated by a swing of the arm of what was arguably the strongest rook.

Followed up by a rugby ball sized fireball thrown at Ryuu, which he managed to dodge although the shockwave sent him flying.

"I thought Beo thought yah to keep your mind in the game." were the rook's words as he prepared to give Ryuu a hard punch to the face.

"Out of energy to jump out of the way. Not enough time to duck. And there's no way I can block that with my arms, still that's the only way I can avoid taking a direct hit. Sigh. Here goes nothing". was the wave of thoughts that crossed his mind in that fraction of a moment, before he crossed his arms in front of his face, bracing himself for the impact.

King's Shield! was a cry coming from the direction of the impact

Ryuu was prepared to feel an unbealivable amount of pain, even to get K.O.-ed, yet, not processing the sound from earlier, all he felt was a faint glow in front of him. When he opened his eyes he could see a crimson dragon motif magic circle that was being released from the gem of the gauntlet, the only thing separeting his body from the giant fist in front of him.
