Chapter 61: Explosion
Elysia"s purplish-blue eyes were reflecting the image of the red rooster who seemed to be dancing and mocking her with joy. The wind blew her hair as if the wind was flicking her beautiful hair here and there.
The fireball she cast with the intention of at least destroying one wooden target to repeat three times later for the sake of a prism, became an explosion that destroyed the whole wooden target remaining in the training field.
Unlike the students who were so shocked and jaw-dropping at the explosion, Teacher Ruth"s eyes lit up with awe when she saw the explosion as if it had such a beautiful form.
As the explosion started to subside, dozens of wooden targets turned to ashes, even the remnants of the explosion were still imprinted on the ground.
"I. I... I didn"t mean to do it. I, I only thought of the small explosion of the fireball and would destroy at least one wooden target." Elysia stammered in her thoughts.
What she did before was very simple, she just made a small fireball which had the destructive power spiced with a little energy and she made sure of that, very very little energy.
Even though this was the second destructive magic she used, she never imagined the explosion would be this big when she only used so little energy. Elysia still has to reduce much less energy if she is going to destroy something again with magic.
"Explosion! Hahaha... Don"t worry, Lil Ely. At least you didn"t blow up the field training building." Elena cheered happily and comforted Elysia who was starting to panic.
"How, this... Will I be in trouble later? Look at all this mess I just made."
"Wait for things to come to us, you just need to respond with confidence." Elena gave a very useful piece of advice and managed to calm Elysia"s panic.
"Elysia Avery!" Teacher Ruth suddenly exclaimed excitedly as he approached her in big strides.
Elysia was shocked and immediately turned to the approaching teacher with a beaming face. Regrettably, the teacher"s bright face was considered by Elysia as an angry teacher because her student was causing trouble.
"I, I just. Ball, fire, and suddenly an explosion. I, I didn"t do it on purpose!" Elysia stuttered again in panic.
"Exquisite! Magnificent! You can use magic on such a scale in the early stages you learn to use magic! Very talented indeed."
Teacher Ruth took Elysia"s two hands and held them in hers while exclaiming excitedly. She even ignored Elysia who was overwhelmed and didn"t know what to say before continuing her chatter.
"You don"t even suffer deviation energy because you used up magical energy beyond what your body can bear! No backlash or repercussions at all!"
Teacher Ruth checked the flow in Elysia"s body by holding her hand, the result was shocking. Elysia"s body was still normal without any damage in the early stages she used magic, an extraordinary achievement.
"Teacher! Cla.s.s time is over."
Serena exclaimed in dissatisfaction. She needed to stop what might happen afterward because she didn"t want anyone to find out that Elysia"s platinum card was in her hands, at least for this year.
All the resources and privileges of one year of platinum card service will probably enhance her talent to truly deserve this card. At the very least, Serena had to eradicate all factors of suspicion and the possibility of being caught by the teacher for one year.
That"s what she thought considering the privilege card was not given the ident.i.ty of the owner, even the monthly resource was so easily claimed by her yesterday.
She just needed to keep Elysia quiet, keep information out of the ears of the teachers, and make sure no one found out about her cheating. If all of that is fulfilled then her plan will be successful, she has also made other plans if unexpected things happen suddenly to save her from trouble.
Little did she know, with all her schemes by exploiting the loopholes of the flawed school system, it would only cause a big problem to befall her and force the academy to change its system which had been implemented for thousands of years.
*bzzt*
Teacher Ruth took out a thin rectangular device from her pocket that served to tell the time. She turned off the alarm she had set on the clock before putting it back in her pocket.
"Oh yeah, magic cla.s.s hours are up, after this there is an economy cla.s.s. For those who like to do business or want to be good at managing finances, I suggest you join this cla.s.s even though you don"t choose it as your study program. Elysia, because you have successfully completed the challenge then you deserve this Luveeda, congratulations!"
Teacher Ruth gave the semi-transparent prism and Elysia happily accepted it. Meanwhile, the latter was relieved because she wasn"t scolded or anything but just praise.
"Teacher, how do I use this Luveeda?" Elysia didn"t forget to ask when looking at the prism device in her hand because she will try this prism soon.
"You only need to be around this prism as long as you want. This prism will purify the energy your body will absorb at any time and will speed up your progression by ten percent! For the purification of energy cores, you only need to make contact with the core and the Luveeda. But I suggest not to use a core with the level more than one-third of your level, understand? " Teacher Ruth explained happily while smiling like a caring teacher.
"I understand." Elysia just nodded innocently.
"By the way, Luveeda can also be used to check your current level. Touch the darkest part on the top side of the device, and your level will appear there."
Elysia immediately tried the teacher"s hint to see her current level using Luveeda.
[| Lv. 21 | Durability: 100% |]
"Durability? I"m durable? Why do I feel like a tool? " Elysia muttered in her mind while checking her own status with her abilities.
[| Lv. 21 | Apprentice Mage | Elysia Avery | Female (16) | HP: 4,500 / 4,500 | EP: 4,500e + 9 / - |]
"Maybe it"s your Health Point, Lil Ely." Elena gave an opinion when she saw Elysia"s status by attributing her vision to Elysia.
"Yes, that is most likely."
"Thank you, Teacher Ruth." Elysia thanked the kind teacher with respect and then returned to Evelyn"s side who greeted her with joy.
"That was really awesome, Ely. Suddenly boom, and it"s all destroyed." Evelyn exaggeratedly spread her arms as if to model the explosion that had just happened.
"Hehe..." Elysia could only smile wryly at the compliment.
After that, four of her acquaintances came to congratulate her, followed by Brian and David, then several students who were not very familiar with her came along with good intentions.
There were only a few other students who didn"t approach the students who started to gather near Elysia, and one of them was Serena. She snorted at that as she folded her arms in displeasure.
"Very well, students. The magic cla.s.s is over. You can go to the economy room for the next cla.s.s." Teacher Ruth clapped her hands for attention.
"Thanks for the lesson, Teacher Ruth."
Several students expressed their grateful thanks before leaving the field training.
After the students leave, Teacher Ruth looks at the area that was destroyed by Elysia a while ago. The image of the explosion of fire was still vivid in her mind.
"Hmm... What did I want to say earlier, huh? Never mind, I forgot when I was reminded that cla.s.s was over." Teacher Ruth shook her head a little at what she couldn"t remember.
