Chapter 17 – A Perfect Line (1/2)

“What? Did you just say that Lin Xiao has passed the fourth level?”

“And, Lin Xiao’s maid can swat people to death?”

“Please tell me, how exactly do you swat one to death?”

“Afu, don’t tell me, you’re trying to make me laugh, aren’t you?”

Rosie was extremely dissatisfied with Afu’s report.

Rosie could ignore the fact that Afu said that Lin Xiao was a fourth-level magician. She was also willing to show surprise as a sign of respect, but Afu’s report on Elena was just too unbelievable.

The maid called Elena was only slightly good looking and had slightly big breasts. What’s so great about her? In Rosie’s opinion, Elena is just a hick who overestimates her own abilities. She doesn’t know of etiquette, speaks rudely and arrogantly,and does not know her own place.

She’s a mere servant, what right does she have to be arrogant?

Rosie had just observed her —— Elena does not even have a tiny bit of magic power in her body. It seemed like Elena was also very interested in the process of using magic. She kept asking Lin Xiao about it, so it is obvious that Elena is a hick that knows nothing about magic!

“Afu, look at her.” Rosie pointed at Elena who was standing outside of the crowd. Rosie squinted and chided, “What does it mean to swat someone to death? Will she use her tiny little hand to slap you, then you’ll die? I think you’ll probably die from happiness!”

“Miss, please pay attention to your words…” Afu replied awkwardly.

“Hmph, you’re still talking back to me! Don’t tell me she’s a demon? Can she transform into a demon? That disrespectful maid is clearly an ordinary person!”Rosie grinned. “Afu, you’re getting old, your ears aren’t what it used to be. You must have misheard!”

“What? I…, I’m old?” Afu’s eyes were sluggish and it took him a while to respond. “Well, okay Miss…”

Although Afu knew that he did not mishear, but since the miss insists, he could only agree.

“But, about Lin Xiao’s power…” Rosie was fascinated while staring at Lin Xiao who was on the test grounds.

At the beginning of the test, Lin Xiao had finished chanting and completed the magic circuit.

The surrounding students all held their breaths, staring at the dark-haired boy with sparkling eyes.

What does a fourth-level magician look like? If Lin Xiao really passed the fourth level, he should be able to use the intermediate magic —— “Flame Eruption”, which is several times more powerful than fireball, and more importantly, Flame Eruption can attack multiple targets simultaneously.

That means that Lin Xiao will not only be able to destroy a single wooden puppet, but he can reduce every puppet on the field to ashes!

“Hey… Is that guy that strong? I don’t believe it.” Rosie shifted her line of sight and was searching for another familiar figure from within the crowd.

Sure enough, Caesar, who had already passed the test, did not leave the test grounds. He stood in an inconspicuous corner and silently observed Lin Xiao’s test performance.

Caesar was also curious about Lin Xiao’s true strength.

“Caesar”…

At this time, Lin Xiao finally threw out his magic —— a magician’s basic attack magic, the plain fireball!

A blazing six-pointed star formed in front of his palm. Rosie had an illusion that the one who was currently taking the test was not Lin Xiao, but Caesar! Their movements were so similar that Rosie even suspected that Lin Xiao was deliberately imitating Caesar’s posture.

“Explode!”

BANG.

With practically the same amount of power, the same precision, the puppet was instantly reduced to ashes.

The result was exactly the same as Caesar’s, the two are equally matched!

“Lin Xiao, pass!”

Along with the teacher’s broadcast, the dark-haired boy looked happy. He respectfully bowed to teacher Woos and then left the test site away from the envious and surprised gaze of the students. On the other hand, Caesar shook his head. He sighed disappointedly and silently left.

“Miss…”

“Ah, I know.” Rosie grinned.

Based on Lin Xiao’s performance it did not seem like he was a fourth-level magician. And he had the audacity to brag about having passed fourth-level? How shameless!

Rosie was not willing to take it, she wanted to teach Lin Xiao a lesson!

“I got it!” After thinking for a bit, Rosie thought of a trick, “Afu, look forward to my performance later!”

“Hey… what are you going to do?” Afu had a bad premonition. “Miss, forgive me for being nosy, but I don’t recommend getting involved with that boy.”

“Why do you have to say it like that? I never said I was going to do anything to him…” Rosie stopped and was not angry at Afu, but instead patiently listened to him. “Well, what did you mean?

Afu is not just an ordinary male servant. He had ability and a plethora of experience. He is also loyal to the Childe family. Rosie understands that he works hard for her family and has tons of merit.

She should respect Afu’s suggestion.

“Miss, that boy’s strength is as plain as day, what’s more, he may even be concealing his strength… We shouldn’t make him our enemy, we should try to win him over!” Afu said seriously, “Although the Childe family has a strong influence in Eileen, we still know nothing about the Eastern Qin Empire.”

“You mean…the east?” Rosie seems to have understood.

She was not an idiot with no brains. After Afu’s explanation, she began to hesitate.

“Since Lin Xiao is the only member of the Eastern Tribe at Loran Academy. If we befriend him, it will actually be pretty beneficial for us! Miss, you must not make an enemy for the family due to a moment of stubbornness.” Afu saw that Rosie was hesitating so he quickly added, “Also, the master has been pretty interested in the Eastern Tribe for the past couple years and wanted to try expanding his business in Qin Empire, so …”

Afu mentioned the master out of good intentions, but he forgot one important point —— Rosie still hates him!

“Ah, so annoying, again about that stinky old man!” Rosie exploded after mentioning her father. “How come you keep bringing him up? Damn it Afu, who’s side are you on?”

“Oh…” Afu was stunned.

He realized that he had made a fatal mistake, but it was too late and Rosie’s hesitation had completely disappeared.
