Chapter 17 – A Perfect Line (2/2)

“Hmph, I don’t care about the family business! Anyway, even if I don’t win over Lin Xiao, that old man’s treasury will only be missing a small number of gold coins.”

“But Miss…”

“I don’t care!” Rosie bit her lips. “I’ll find out today exactly how much strength he’s hidden!”

She made up her mind and walked to the testing grounds without turning around.

“Miss, please listen to me…”

“Fourth-level magician my ass… Lin Xiao sure can talk big! Hmph, if he’s fourth-level then I’m a grand magician!”

“Miss! Miss!”

No matter how much Afu called her, Rosie did not look back. It’s over, it’s all over!

“Rosie! Where’s Rosie? Ah…, my throat… cough…cough” On the other side, Woos’s throat was becoming hoarse from all the yelling.

“Teacher Woos, sorry, I’m here!” Rosie ran in front of teacher Woos and bowed her head in apology.

“It’s okay, I can still carry on… cough.”

They were only halfway through the examinations, but Woos had stood under the sun for a long time and was constantly shouting, so he would definitely be tired. Fortunately, there were other teachers around to help organize the students, otherwise, his body would not be able to withstand it.

“Okay Rosie, I know that you have great magic control and you won’t lose control, but you can’t be too careless!”

“Understood, teacher!”

Rosie walked up to the ten-meter testing line without speaking a single word. She looked at the nearby puppet and pressed her palms together.

Strips of pale green light like willow leaves rotated quickly in front of Rosie.

Magic circuit, completed.

“Whirlwind!”

Magic chant, completed.

Rosie extended her right arm and released the magic like she was throwing something outwards.

A fierce whirlwind whizzed past! The puppet was violently shaken by the wind and released squeaking sounds, the wooden poles that fixed the puppets to the ground seemed like it was going to snap. Originally, not far behind the puppet stood a few curious students, but they could not open their eyes under the violent winds and could only quickly escape.

After a while, the wind disappeared but the puppet was not damaged. There were only a few shallow cuts that remained.

“Well, Rosie, you passed too. Next…” Woos nodded and was about to call the next student, but he was interrupted by Rosie.

“Wait!”

“What happened Rosie, are you feeling unwell?”

“Thank you for your concern, but no.” Rosie smiled and shook her head. “I want to try again, is that okay?”

“Try again? Why?”

It was not only teacher Woos, but the surrounding students were also curious and huddled closer.

As a goddess in the minds of the students, Rosie has never lacked a passionate audience, but now she has no time to mind those flies.

“Just now, Caesar and Lin Xiao were incredible!” Rosie said sincerely, “I want to be like them and blow up the puppet with a fireball!”

“Oh?” Woos had an expression like he did not really believe her.

“Is it not possible?” Rosie fluttered her eyes and pouted, “If they can do it, I can do it! Teacher, please let me try!”

“But they’ve both passed the third-level, that’s why their fireballs are so strong. But you’re only a second-level, don’t force it.”

“No, no, my magic control is better than theirs! Although I have insufficient magic, I can certainly do it!”

“…is that right.” Woos laughed bitterly. “Hmm, it’s fine to try again, but I’m afraid you’ll lose control and hurt someone!”

“Haha, there won’t be any accidents, trust me!”

“Okay then……”

After receiving permission, Rosie grinned from ear to ear. She turned and walked a few steps forward, standing at the same ten-meter mark line and took a deep breath.

The plan is starting!

The reason why she asked for another chance was not due to a passing whim. Choosing to attack the puppet with a weaker spell like whirlwind was also not arbitrary.

Although the power of whirlwind was small, it can pass through the puppets and disturb the students behind it. Rosie’s goal was not to attack the puppet, but to drive away the students behind the puppets to clear a road!

And the end of the road, stood a black-haired youth ——

Lin Xiao!

Rosie, the puppet, and Lin Xiao —— the three points connected in a line, a perfect angle! Supposing that Rosie misses her next spell and the fireball grazes the puppet, then Lin Xiao who is standing behind the puppet will be hit!

“Teacher Woos was just worrying that I would lose control and cause an accident.”

Rosie raised the corners of her mouth into a smile.

“Hehe… since Teacher Woos said that this is an accident, then don’t blame me Lin Xiao!”
