solely by luck, but now it was evident that he wasn't afraid of the flames.

"Is fire your only trick? It won't do much if it can't hurt me. Not a single hair on my head has felt the heat
so far," Dustin remarked casually, advancing without a hint of concern.

and firmly planting the blade tip into the ground.
