Magical Cat

The clothes Elaine had just had cleaned by Melina's magic were now covered in dust again.

But the experience of successfully evading the magic excited Elaine greatly.

This was different from her previous dodging maneuvers; it was more thrilling and exciting, but the success rate of dodging was higher.

Previously, the students would always avoid the opponent's magic from a distance, either by moving out of the spell's range or by pulling to the left or right, always making their moves early.

But this method of dodging is different; it involves waiting until the magic is right in front of you, and then suddenly dodging away from where you were.

However, because the students, who were only at the magic apprentice level, lacked sufficient mental strength, they were simply unable to complete the sudden and drastic change of direction.

It wasn't until this final battle that everyone learned how to efficiently dodge magic.

The students were amazed by Safina and Elaine's skills.

"If I had known, I would have hidden like this too. All that running around was for nothing."

"Who's wrong with that? No wonder everyone says mages have a hard time fighting agile thieves and rangers. So that's why."

"Wait a minute, wouldn't using area-of-effect magic work?"

"You haven't seen how fast those agile combat classes can run; they run faster than rabbits."

The mention of rabbits immediately brought to mind the adorable sight of Barbara's snow rabbit hopping around, and everyone couldn't help but chuckle.

Barbara glared angrily, fully aware that they were laughing at her rabbit.

The students immediately coughed awkwardly and looked back at the field.

As a result, someone noticed something was wrong.

"Look at the ground!"

Suddenly, the electric current that Safina had initially unleashed was tinged with a red glow, leaving scorched paths on the ground, and it was clear that it had already surrounded Elaine, who had fallen to the ground.

Safina, on the other side, smiled when she saw this; clearly, it was all part of her plan.

"Eleanor, you're so smart and eager to learn. Seeing such a practical way to evade magic, can you really resist learning it?"

Safina adjusted her glasses, got up to prepare for her next spell, and reminded her companion to continue preparing for the attack.

Even if she believes she has the victory in the bag, she will continue to make thorough preparations just in case.

The battle wasn't over until Melina's Flowing Shield appeared on her opponent.

Elaine realized she was surrounded, and it was too late to start chanting the resistance to the ring of fire.

She bit her lip, stood up, and began chanting a fireball spell.

"What is she doing? Is she giving up?"

"There's really no way to escape. The power of the fire-resistant ring is enough to deal with it, but even Elaine's chanting speed can't keep up."

"They probably wanted to take one person with them before being eliminated, so they could lose with honor."

"Anyway, Teacher Melina said that Elaine would get a gift as long as she accepted the challenge, so she wouldn't lose out."

Barbara was even more annoyed by her classmates' comments.

She noticed that, without anyone realizing it, everyone was growing to admire Elaine more and more.

But in truth, it was Barbara herself who was blinded by jealousy.

Elaine fought her way to the finals alone, putting up a very impressive fight against Safina.

Just when everyone thought Elaine was doomed, she quietly opened her mouth and said in her demonic mind, "Li En, help me!"

The next moment, a ring of vines burst forth from the ground, blocking all the snake-like currents that snaked across the surface.

The vines formed a ring, completely protecting Elaine inside.

The electric current struck the vine and dissipated shortly afterward.

But the next moment, the vines were set ablaze.

But by this point, Safina's electric magic had lost its threat.

Amidst a ring of burning vines, a fireball was the first to shoot out.

Safina, who was chanting, could only watch helplessly as her companion was hit by a fireball and eliminated.

The water shield protected Safina's teammates, but it also prevented her from continuing the fight.

They had already started chanting the spell, but they were still not as fast as Elaine.

The students were speechless at the insane speed of the chanting.

Little did they know that it wasn't just a matter of Elaine's chanting speed being fast enough, but rather that Li En's support abilities far surpassed those of ordinary wands.

The students only saw Elaine chanting the magic, but they didn't know that the kitten at their feet was also playing a role, which naturally made it look particularly impactful.

Elaine could cast spells with her bare hands much faster than they could with wands, which was utterly humiliating and infuriating.

They could only attribute this unusual phenomenon to Elaine's talent.

Although Safina chanted first, her magic was slower than Elaine's.

A blade of wind, accompanied by a sharp sound, sliced ​​through the air and struck Elaine.

As the transparent wind blades swept past the burning vines, they turned red, carrying intense heat and causing the flames to rise as well.

"Holy crap, it's dyed!"

Some knowledgeable students exclaimed in surprise.

Just as the wind blade was about to strike Elaine, branches suddenly coiled and grew in front of her, forming a solid wooden shield.

With a muffled thud, the fiery red wind blade was firmly blocked by the wooden shield, but it also left a deep scorch mark.

The charred marks emitted smoke and quickly burst into flames.

Li En narrowed his eyes as he watched this scene.

He was right about Safina; this girl is truly talented.

If it weren't for Li En's intervention, Elaine would have had no chance against Safina.

"What's with this wood-elemental magic? Is Elaine also proficient in two elements?"

"How is that possible? Not everyone is a member of the Weston family. For a mage to become proficient in other elemental magic, it takes a very long time to achieve that."

"Then this wood-attribute magic..."

The students started discussing it excitedly, but Weber, standing in the crowd, turned pale and stared at Li En.

"No, that's impossible!"

Weber was utterly skeptical, but after searching the entire arena, he couldn't find any other possibility.

He was more unwilling than anyone to believe this fact.

The battle on the field continued, and Elaine once again gathered fireballs.

Despite witnessing this desperate scene, Safina remained calm.

"Help me, little lark."

Safina also summoned her magical beast.

It was a small blue bird that, once summoned, spread its wings and flew toward Elaine at an incredible speed.

Li En and Elaine immediately became alert, but found that the little lark did not launch an attack, but instead flew around them quickly.

The little lark was very fast, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a blur.

A whirlwind was forming around them, and the burning vines were blown by the wind, causing them to burn even more fiercely.

Elaine's magic robes glowed, clearly indicating that a protective enchantment had been activated.

"Damn, can they all connect?"

Li En was startled. Safina's magic seemed to be precisely calculated, producing a series of reactions that made it increasingly difficult to deal with.

And someone just mentioned something about "dyeing," which is probably similar to the elemental reaction we had at the Blue Jazz Tavern.

Watching Safina continuously utilize her wind and lightning attributes, and even make full use of Elaine's fire attribute, one can't help but admire the solidity of her theory.
