Chapter 53: "Hellish view"
This chapter begins with the extreme temperature of the world, where the people underground still feel cold even though they are wearing very thick clothes.
From the suffering people in every part of the world, the scene flew in a breeze that seemed to bring a white object caused by the cold that also landed on our two protagonists.

"It's too cold! Shin-su, are you ready?!"
Catalina asked Shin-su with her two hands crossing her body.
"I still don't quite understand the coldness of your world, but for you, Catalina, I can handle it."
The two looked at each other, but Catalina suddenly blushed and stood up straight and sneered at him, which, in turn, surprised Shin-su, who seemed funny.
"Anyway, Catalina. Where are Ben and Cao Xi?!"
"That weird and irresponsible guy, Cao Xi! I asked Granny why her selfish son didn't want to join us, but no matter how she talked to him, he always resisted! This Ben is also annoying! Instead of prioritizing our world, he puts what's on his mind first! 
"He will come late to fix his selfish act! What if we're dead when he comes? They are fucked off!"
Catalina tells her resentment story to him, and Shin-su suddenly smiles when he hears it.
"Don't worry, Catalina, no matter what happens, I'll be right here by your side. Even if I die, I'll be with you."
Catalina was suddenly struck in the heart by what Shin-su said and could only say thank you to his red face and hoarse voice.
"Come on, Shin-su. Let's do everything we can to try to save the world!"
"Alright, Catalina."
Shin-su is acting brave despite his weakening voice due to the intense cold.
The two were guarding the coastline and looking at the hellish view of the sea on ​​the island of Japan. They stood bravely waiting for a great disaster to come.

Isolated part of the Mountain of Kumotori
Otaki, Chichibu, Saitama.

Ashura was sitting with her eyes closed while thinking about something, and a dim yellow light covered him.
Ben successfully climbed the mountain where Ashura's group was with his multi-purpose advance vehicle, and his eyes caught sight of some guards. Ben knew that it would be a few days before their defense could recover again, so he took advantage of it to avoid too much time.
Ben bravely showed up at the wooden gate of Ashura's fortress and his group because what he did surprised the guards. One of the guards immediately hit something, and they pointed their guns at Ben.
"I have no bad intention! I only want to speak to your leader in person!"
Ben said while raising his two hands, and a few seconds later, one of the leaders of Ashura's group came out.
"I'm Banko, one of the co-leaders of our chief brother, Ashura. Sorry, you are not allowed to stay here. So you can leave and live freely."
Banko introduces himself with his voice, but Ben is steadfast in his want.
"Just a moment, please!"
"You are one of the country's military that you are wearing as proof, but even though we have reached an agreement with you, what happened is still fresh for us, so you better leave, or we will use force to remove you!"
"I'm sorry, but what I want to know from him is important because it's for the benefit of everyone!"
Banko argues and explains their side firmly, but Ben is still persistent.
"I don't know what you're talking about, but since you're insistent, we'll give you what you want!"
All of the guards shot him, but Ben just accepted all of it as he has immunity because of his power.
"What?!! How did that happen?! Listen, just keep shooting! I'm sure he is wearing a thick armor, so aim for his head!"
The guards did what he wanted, but they were surprised when suddenly the color of Ben's whole body changed except for his clothes.
"Solid shield of war!
Ben walked while accepting all of the bullets and their created explosives and fires, and it seemed that his whole body was only a little lower due to the guns that were hitting him, but the steps were still higher on his feet.
"He is no longer human! Continue the attack while pushing backward!"
More than a hundred arsonists lit up, and the fire spread to Ben's place.
"Okay! I'm sure he's dead!
"Yeah!"
They all cheered and screamed as they were suddenly surprised when Ben continued to walk towards them. They continue to attack him while walking backward with nervousness.
After several minutes, they ran out of supplies and guns, but Ben kept walking.
"I already told you, just let me talk to your leader in person! And I have no intention of fighting with all of you!"
They were all shaking while holding their equipment.
"I said, bring out your cowardly leader!"
Ben didn't notice a blow that would hit his face like it was on fire, and he fell to the ground.
The one who punched Ben was Ashura, who looked angry.
"It's you again! I killed you! How did you come back to life?! By your actions, you're not an ordinary person! 
"All of you! Leave this place for now and leave the two of us!"
All of Ashura's members, even his fellow leaders, leave them in different directions of the mountain.
"Now tell me what you want here, dog?!"
Ashura asked Ben as he released his blazing fire from his two hands while walking. The two argue with each other with their firm voice.
"I have come to clear up what has been bothering me regarding your ability!"
"What's wrong with you if my abilities aren't normal?!"
"So my suspicion is correct! You are not an ordinary person!"
"So what's the big deal?! Yes, I am a demon of fire! You're just a dog of the government you serve who has not proven anything in this country! Don't bother me!"
"Your skill is what I'm sure the world needs!"
"Hahaha, are you kidding me? Ever since when I was a child, I felt the excitement of making fires! But I wasn't born to save this world and become a hero of all people because all I want is for my beloved country to be safe!"
"I'm sure you're one of us chosen by Shin-su's God named Lamisowa!"
"And then? I'm sorry, even if what you say is true, I still won't go with untrustworthy people like you! A month ago, when I suddenly passed out during my training, I heard a God-like voice like you said! He offered and asked me to save this world, but I rejected him because I had no intention of being the hero of any world. So if I'm yours, you can leave because you won't get anything from me!"
"Now it is all clear that you are one of us!"
"I will never be one of you, so before I burst you into my flames, get out of my sight!"
"We're different from what you think! No matter what you do, you can't escape your fate because that's what you must do!"
"Bastard! If that is true, I will walk my destiny by my hand and not by the God trash you worship!"
"What is the difference between saving the country and saving other people? We are the same because our fathers will faithfully serve our own country, but they died innocently! I, as a general, am saving other people even though they are not part of my country because they all have life to value, so I would have liked to help your country in the crisis involving your group, but the Prime Minister stopped me and said I want to save this country with my way.
"I don't care about your long explanation and story! You is you, and I am is I am! So leave now if you don't want to die!"
"Sorry, but I'm not leaving here until you change your mind!"
"Then! Face my blazing fire!"
"I am ready for your proud fire! If I defeat you, you will join us, but if I am defeated, I will not trouble you anymore!"
"If that's your decision, but don't expect to win from me!"
The two decided to give their all-out powers to give peace solution by one on one fight after their long verbal arguments.
"Mighty rising sun times 3!"
Ashura releases a thick and massive fire more dense than before.
On the other hand, Ben froze his body and some parts of the ground.
"Body freeze -70 degrees!
"Hahaha, this is a good fight! Your ice against my fire! It's like a fantasy anime I watched before in my childhood! I will melt it and will make you a toasted dog!
Ben's defense and Ashura's attack collided, which resulted in Ashura's loss of fire and loss of Ben's defense. The two of them rushed at each other to use their physical strength.
"I never thought I'd find someone like you in this world. I thought I was the only one!'
"That's what's your weakness! Do you think you're the only one special in this world? You don't know that there's someone stronger than you, and that's that man in your front!"
"You're arrogant, Dog! We'll see! 
"Firetrap!"
Ashura created a wide circular barrier, and the two were in the center of this large circle.
"Your designs are beautiful with the power. Hehe, I was a little scared! It's a little impressive!"
"Hahaha, idiot! Now your nightmare will start."
A circular barrier attacks Ben, and he is hit solidly by it, which, in turn, surprises him because it is so fast.
"Hahaha, you are part of this boxing ring, and my sparring losing partner is you!"
Ben accepted all of Ashura's attack and thrown away to the ground.
"Hehe, those attacks hurt me so much. You're really good at using and controlling your fire, but it's no match to my war of defense."
"Ultimate solid armored body!"
Ben encased himself in rock-hard mud through the ground of Earth.
"Earth is one of your fire's weaknesses! And all your attacks will not cover me!"
Ben stood impervious to Ashura's attack, then it moved the ground to extinguish the circled fire, and it caused a faint tremor.
Ashura was surprised by what Ben did and started sweating.
"Now it's my turn to attack! That will end this fight!"
"Solified diamond war bullet!
Ben mixed his ice and earth ability, and it seemed to form a glowing crystal. The ground floor is turning into a piercing shape and is covered with ice as if it is heading toward Ashura.
"I will not lose on you! I will destroy it with my last and strongest attack!"
"Burning sun of my beloved country!"
Ashura released a monster-like and extremely thick fire, and the two powers collided, which caused a hellish view.
On one side, an unknown man was running, and only his feet were visible until he reached the upper part of the mountains. He stopped when he suddenly saw Ben and Ashura lying on the ground, and they stared at him with difficulty.
The result of the battle between Ashura and Ben were tied.
