After making the employees take some position while holding a torch in their hand, Angus goes towards the center of the room.

"Young master Angus, Are you certain of this?" asked Pavlon worriedly.

"Yes, besides, the torch will do nothing to my body other than a little bit of pain." said Angus while drinking the potion to numb his senses.

Looking at his master resolution, Pavlon couldn't help but comply with Angus.

"Alright, if you insist." said Pavlon before Angus blindfolded himself.

As soon as Angus blindfolded himself, he felt inside a dark world. He couldn't perceive anything as he didn't use [Mana Echolocation], and his five senses are numbed.

'It's been a long time since I feel this way.' thought Angus.

"Alright, start moving and throwing the torch!!" commanded Angus.

To test his fire sense limit, Angus orders the employees to move while throwing torches in their hands at him. He needs to avoid the torch using only his fire sense. At first, Angus didn't feel anything as his senses numbed.

Then, he starts to feel the heat around him as the fire torch goes near him. Because of the late detection, Angus couldn't dodge all of the torches, and some of them hit his body.

'As I thought, my fire sense is still too low.' thought Angus as he felt the torch on the floor.

"Alright, keep throwing while moving!!" command Angus to others.

Hearing Angus' order, the staff looked at and nodded at Pavlon and reluctantly threw the torch while moving. After a few hours of continuously getting hit, Angus feels the heat from the torches surrounding him. He is also getting better at dodging the incoming torches.

"Faster!! Throw it faster!!" said Angus as he wanted to raise his training difficulty.

The staff begins to be unsure what to do and looks at the head butler Pavlon. However, to their dismay, Pavlon only gives them silent nods. Without any other choices, the staff throws the torch harder and faster.

Because it is faster, the torches also hit Angus harder and create some red bumps on his body. Fortunately, Angus has a ridiculous regeneration ability to heal this kind of wound in seconds.

Various bumps begin to appear on Angus's body as time goes on. At the same time, he could feel his fire sense improve at an incredible rate.

At first, he barely felt the heat of the torch close to his body. Now, he could feel the torches heat around half meters of his body. After a whole day of training, Angus finds it is harder to improve his fire sense wider than half meters surrounding him.

By the evening, Angus stops this reckless training because his mind is exhausted, and his body starts to build resistance towards the numbing potion. The potion's efficacy duration becomes lower as he consumes it. 

At the beginning of the training, it could stay one whole hour, but it only worked for around 45 minutes in the evening. Moreover, Angus feels his body get used to the numbing potion. He speculated his body would increase the resistance further.

'Hmm… I need to create a more potent numbing potion without any side effects. Haa.. Having a powerful body is quite troublesome.' thought Angus.

Before using the numbing potion, Angus decides to debuff himself with self-created magic to numb his senses. However, his magic resistance is quite high from all the ancient king's blessings. The debuff does not even last for three minutes before diminishing.

Most of the lower circle enchantment spells are not working to high-grade combatants, especially with high magic resistance ones. The body's magic resistance acts like antibodies and cannot be controlled. It could be strengthened but could not be controlled. 

It also depends on the mana's purity and capacity. Although Angus is only a second-grade combatant, his mana capacity is higher than ordinary third-grade combatants, and his mana purity is top-notch. This makes him quite resistant to any kind of magic.

Moreover, the enchantment buff magic effect will diminish when used more often. Currently, none of his low circle enchantment magic could hold up to fifteen seconds. Angus also finds his perfect control over his body slightly loosened up when using enchantment.

In the end, Angus decides to use a potion to numb his body rather than debuff enchantment magic as it is more efficient.

After training his fire sense, Angus went to his bedroom to rest. Currently, he is pretty mentally exhausted after a whole day having concentration training his fire sense.

While taking a bath, "Ahh… Nothing better than having a warm bath after training." said Angus.

"Wait.. Warm??" exclaimed Angus.

'What I felt during the test is the heat rather than the fire itself?! Don't tell me what I achieved back then is heat sense rather than fire sense itself?' thought Angus inwardly.

Fire sense and heat sense are similar but different. Fire sense could only sense fire in a certain radius, while heat sense senses any kind of heat not only from fire. There is a pro and a contra for both of these abilities.

Fire sense could detect any kind of fire, be it natural burning fire or magical cold fire like the Blue Phoenix had. However, it could not sense anything other than fire. On the contrary, Heat sense could detect any kind of heat like people's body heat and other stuff.

The only problem is heat sense, usually limited by the temperature of the things. If it does not reach a certain temperature, it could not be detected in his heat senses. Based on common knowledge, everything has heat on it.

Everything radiates different heat temperatures, be it living beings or inanimate objects. Therefore, if Angels could only sense heat with a certain temperature, he may miss some of them. Still, the heat sense is kind of superior to the fire sense.

Now, he is indecisive about whether to continue his training or not. Heat sense may be excellent and superior to his fire sense. If he could truly master it, he could sense everything in his surroundings even without five senses and mana echolocation.

However, he didn't know if this direction was right to master the Firecast skill. The Firecast skill is very complex and needs a lot of prerequisites. There are a few important prerequisites based on what Angus has gathered over the last few months.

First is the fire sense. He needs to be able to sense the whole fire. With the blessing of Ancient King Firelord and [Hellfire], he should be able to do this after some training.

After sensing the fire, he must be able to make it stronger and weaker at his will. Angus only could make the natural fire burn more and can't make it weaker. This is also why he failed to change the shape of natural fire.

The moment he tried to influence natural fire, it immediately burned wildly, and he lost control of it. He feels like he missed something. But, Up till now, he still doesn't know what he misses.

After controlling the fire intensity at will, he was required to change the shape of the fire. This is also the last step of the Firecast skill. After mastering all these three prerequisites, Angus should be able to do Firecast on natural fire.

However, Angus is still stuck at the second step. After training for the whole three months, he believes that he still has not succeeded in the first step and is required to master fire sense first. Therefore, he took a step back and did all this crazy training.

Apparently, the Firecast to natural fire is the highest skill for any fire elemental wielder. Throughout history, only a few people could attain this skill. None of them are ordinary people.

Some legends even said they could burn the whole city just by their thought. Over the years, there have been many research about Firecast skill, but most of them are towards fire produced by fire mana from the user body rather than natural fire.

According to Angus's father, Duke Jacob, Angus' attainment in Firecast skill is already impressive since it is at the same level as his father. His father needs at least years of practice to reach his current level. However, Angus didn't contend with this result. 

Although no one knows about this, the primary reason he could progress quickly is because of the blessing and [Hellfire] from the Ancient King Firelord. If he is contending about his current result, it is the same as admitting that his talent in the fire element is only this much.

'According to that Ancient King's description, [Hellfire] is an ancient power that governs every aspect of fire. An Ancient Power that could destroy anything.' thought Angus as he remembered the pyromaniac Ancient King's sentence.

The Ancient King Firelord may be the most brazen and arrogant among the other ancient kings from the mysterious chamber. However, his direct description also signifies the true capabilities of his ancient power. An ancient power to destroy anything.

"Haaa… I should have asked for a manual book. Not that they will give me that since I am not their heir. I should be satisfied by having them give us the blessing and their ancient power at that time." said Angus.
