My Space-Time System

Chapter 573 Vacation plans.

As the fire energy began to infuse with Castiel, it felt like an unrelenting surge of scorching energy flooding his body. This energy was not a gentle, comforting warmth but a raging inferno that threatened to consume him from the inside out.

The energy manifested as an agonizing heat that seemed to emanate from his very cells. It was as if his blood had turned to molten lava, coursing through his veins with blistering intensity. Every inch of his skin felt as though it was on the verge of incineration.

At the same time, the heat and flames produced by the orange crystal were making their way toward Castiel who was now on his knees. The flames in and outside the building were extinguished, and the molten sand at the entrance had instantly cooled into glass.

"What the hell just happened?" Brian as well as the researchers were stunned by the events that just took place.

Thinking about the reactions this might cause, Brian took a look at the tracking device only to see that the beasts were now leaving the area.

'At least something is working in our favour.' Brian let out a sigh of relief as he turned his attention back to Castiel to see if he could help just in case something went wrong.

After 5 minutes of constant agonizing pain, the pain began subsiding and Castiel now finally had the strength to get back on his feet.

"What the fuck was that?!" Castiel cursed as he stood up, but he soon noticed that the orange crystal was nowhere to be found.

"Where did the crystal go?" The two researchers asked as they finally came forward.

"I have no clue." Castiel was also as confused as them.

"Are you saying that the cause of so much trouble vanished just like that?" The first researcher asked.

"It didn't just vanish, I think… my body absorbed it." Castiel was still trying to wrap his head around the matter.

"What do you mean your body ab…"

Before the 2nd researcher could complete his sentence, Castiel conjured a ball of purple flames in his hand.

"I think I just got a fire inheritance." Although he was able to speak, Castiel was still as shocked as Brian and the 2 researchers in the room.

"Are you sure it is an inheritance?" Brian couldn't help but ask because he had come across a lot of dangerous mystical things over the years.

"Not only do my flames feel hotter, but I feel the strength and capabilities of my fire element got multiplied." Castiel replied as his confusion had now turned to a smile.

"Since there is nothing here, we should leave and continue with our research." Having been left disappointed, the researchers didn't want to continue wasting the time they had with the adventurers.

Following the instructions of their employers, Castiel and Brian led them back into the desert in search of different venomous creatures. However, this time the frequency of beasts had significantly dropped, but this was where the mating calls of the tracking device came in handy.

Thanks to his flames becoming stronger, Castiel easily took down any beast that came their way without the need for Brian to act.

In this way, they made it through the 48-hour service time with the two researchers and returned to Calton. contemporary romance

Once they returned, their vacation officially began. They were looking for ways to spend it, so they decided to start a group call with their friends to find out who was free.

"Hey guys, how is everyone doing?" Castiel asked.

In a sombre tone, Tessie replied. "Hey, Castiel. Hanging in there, I guess. It's still hard to believe he's gone."

Brian felt sorry for Tessie as he spoke. "Yeah, it really is. Listen, Castiel and I were thinking of taking a vacation to clear our heads a bit. We need a break from all the missions and the stress. Are you guys in?

"I really need a break right now; Unfortunately with everything happening, the Ash Corps are busier than ever." Camilla let out a helpless sigh.

"I will pass, I need to work on myself, I don't won't to ruin the fun for you guys." Tessie refused.

"Sorry guys, but because of the assassination of the descendants of two councillors, my Dad wouldn't let me out." Damon shook his head helplessly.

"I am currently free; Why don't you guys come over to the North, there are a lot of spots I would like to show you." Surprising to all, Luciano seemed to be the most enthusiastic about the vacation.

Usually, he was the most busy out of the rest, he had never even attended a single get-together.

"That sounds perfect. When are we leaving?" Brian's energy was charged up especially since he hadn't spent much time in the North.

"If you guys are ready you can come right now through the Adventurer association's warp array. Don't worry about the bill, I will handle it." Luciano said with a smile on his face.

"Nooo!" Camilla screamed in envy as she cursed the heavens. "How could it be now that I am busy that you decide to go on vacation? It's not fair!"

Hearing her complaint, Luciano chuckled as he spoke. "We can always go later."

"…." Camilla muttered a few inaudible complaints as she folded her hands..

"I almost forgot to tell you guys that we stumbled upon a fire inheritance on our last mission at Sandhaven." Castiel went on to narrate the details of their mission before proceeding to show his purple flames.

"You guys were so lucky that no high-level beast was in the area." Tessie said in a worried tone.

"Good for you! With the inheritance your missions would become safer." Damon congratulated him.

"That's great; when you come over let's have a spar." Luciano said.

The friends exchange a few more details and begin to plan their trip, trying to find solace and support in each other's company as they navigate through their grief.
