Chapter 186 – The Less You Wear, The Faster You Go (1/2)

Rosie felt a chill down her neck.

That ring was a gift her brother gave her before she left, it was said to be enchanted with a powerful magic circuit that would trigger when she’s in danger, that’s how her brother could send her off with a peace of mind.

“How unnecessary, how could I be in danger?”

The words she spoke that day rang by her ears, in the end, it really happened.

That arrow was clearly heading for her head to take her life, and she was only able to hear it, unable to react! The ring ended up saving her life.

“Eh? It was blocked?”

An unfamiliar voice came from the darkness.

“Who is it? Who’s there?” Rosie yelled with a shaky voice.

“Tsk… I can’t believe I missed.” The voice came again.

The ambush failed, Rosie thought that they would escape, but she never expected that they would strut over!

The shrubbery was pulled back and two men and two women wearing tight clothes came out of it. The three in the front held short daggers and the girl in the back was holding a short bow, which was probably who shot her!

“I never thought you would be that strong, I underestimated you. I should’ve gone all out with that last arrow.” The bow holding girl shook her head regrettably.

Enchanting the arrow with battle aura can greatly increase its power and speed. Since it was an ambush and she thought she would hit for sure, so she only used 70% of her strength, but it ended up getting blocked by the magic shield.

But she thought it was very strange.

According to their information, this pink-haired girl with a ponytail should only be a fourth-level magician. There’s no way she could do that with her strength.

“Sheila, what are you saying? Look carefully, she wasn’t the one who set up that magic circuit.” The head girl played with her dagger, dancing the sharp blade between her fingers, the glint of moonlight shining off it gave one the chills.

“Sister Shebe, who could it be if it wasn’t her, there’s no one else here… eh? Is it the ring?” Sheila looked at the beautiful ring on Rosie’s hand and realized.

The milky white magic shield gradually dispersed and the glowing ring dimmed down with it. Sheila realized that it was enchanted into the ring and not set up by Rosie.

“Hehe, I almost forgot, as expected of the well-known merchant family. If the Childe family doesn’t even have a decent enchanter, then they don’t deserve their wealth.” Sheila tilted their head and suddenly understood something, speaking with a jealous tone.

Enchantments, strengthening, engraving, producing magic scrolls, setting magic boundaries, these were all things that an enchanter could do.

Unlike a magician, they usually didn’t have abundant magic power, but rather they were proficient in magical knowledge and could make various magic tools with rare magical ingredients.

Rosie’s enchanted ring was one such tool.

Although it was extremely difficult for them to create powerful tools, usually far more than a magician of the same level just casting the magic, but their toys are extremely easy to use, convenient, compact, and practical.

So, powerful families would typically buy a lot of magical tools and give it to their descendants who didn’t know magic for self-defense. The rich Childe family even had their own enchanter, especially making powerful magic tools for the family.

“Okay Sheila, stop being resentful.” Shebe curled her lips and squinted at Rosie with a disdainful gaze, “She’s the jewel of the Childe family! She’s participating alone, wouldn’t it be unacceptable if she doesn’t have some powerful magic tools?”

“Sigh, rich people are different. They don’t have to work hard themselves and just rely on other people, how disgusting…” Sheila shook her head and spoke strangely.

“You… what are you saying? Who are you?” Rosie stammered.

Although she didn’t know who they are, she knew that they were definitely bad people! How could someone who hid and shot an arrow at her be good?

Presently, Rosie was scared pale, and she couldn’t stop her legs from shaking. It was good that it was dark and they couldn’t see her useless appearance. The other good thing was that she just finished going number one, if she didn’t, then she would have already pissed her pants in fear.

“Oh, we haven’t introduced ourselves yet, right? She’s Sheila, my little sister, and I’m Shebe , the team lead of Cato Academy.” The girl called Shebe replied with a smile.

She casually tossed the dagger into the air and held her index and middle finger underneath where it was falling.

The sharp dagger spun and fell, right towards her fingers. In the end, the blade accurately passed right between her fingers and she caught the handle. Then she turned her wrist over and through the dagger up again, like she was juggling.

“Cato Academy?”

Watching that spinning silver dagger in midair, Rosie’s heart sank.

Oh no!

She suspected something when she saw their tight black clothes, but she never thought it would be the cunning Cato Academy!
