Chapter 543 - Continuing Winter? (2)

I wore a mini crop top with a high waist tennis skirt acting like a swimsuit. My long hair was pulled into a high ponytail by Luke, using a pink ribbon. Standing in front of a mass body of water in front of me, I wondered which fire spell to start with. Going through the notebooks one last time, I decided to use fire tornado, the relatively simpler ones. I closed my eyes, visualizing the creation of fire, burning off oxygen and heat energy. The atoms would clash together with an addition of carbon dioxide.

I squeezed my hand into a fist, combining every single aspect together, swirling and towering to create a tornado. When I opened my eyes, I was stunned from how powerful it was, able to stand on top of the pool. The water underneath had no effect on the fire tornado, showing how it was starting to boil. I gulped when some of the height of the water drastically began to decrease, steaming into the air. This wasn't good. Water vapour helped increase the fire.

I didn't think that more knowledge of visualization would make an incredible difference.. Since I was experimenting, I had only poured a little bit of mana inside. I desperately started to search for where I could adjust the settings, the water level almost shimmering to its bottom. At this rate, the entire mansion could burn down. However, with my mind in a panic, I couldn't find anything. I sighed as I would have to solve this by summoning an equally powerful water spell.

Raising my arm to chant one of my favourite spells, I poured in around quarter of my mana inside to shout, "whirlpool!"

I stiffened when my large whirlpool instantly disappeared as soon as it came into existence. I was going to die if I destroyed the pool. This could be only solved if I flooded the entire mansion, hoping it would do something. It was better than a fire, raging to destroy all its surroundings. I decided to pour in the around a half of the mana I had remaining, all into a bigger whirlpool. Only a large body of water would be effective against my semi successful spell.

With more concentration on combining hydrogen and oxygen together, I visualized producing a raging force of water. Desperately pleading inside my heart, I found a tsunami waiting to pour down into the pool, increasing in size every second. When I dropped my arm to activate the spell, I froze when the fire tornado was still winning. While the water untouched by the fire was starting to leak outside the door to the other parts of the mansion.

I needed tape. I had to cover the tiny holes surrounding the door from the walls. Pulling out some weak tape from my inventory, I quickly ripped out some pieces to plaster around the door. My mouth wouldn't shut when the power of water burst through the tape I recently placed. Looking at the fire tornado, it was still full of energy, making all the water turn into steam. My head was going blank when I noticed the tornado was increasing in size. How could nothing be working out today?

All I could do now was to produce a barrier around the room to make sure it wouldn't spread anywhere else. I opened the door, almost freezing when the floors were wet. In fact, my entire feet were covered like I was at the entrance to a waterpark. Everyone else was on the floor above this one, thankfully not encountering the water unless they walked to the main dining room. Before my panicking could get worse, I placed my hands against the door to put a strong barrier on the room with the remaining quarter of my mana.

"We should get some snacks from the dining room," Charles suggested to others on the floor above me.

"I'll get you the snacks since you're busy. Just message me your orders," I shouted at them.

"Is that water?" Alex looked down at my floor.

"The entire floor is wet," Charles muttered.

Luke dashed down the stairs when he noticed the barrier I was slowly fortifying. The water reached his ankles, drenching his shoes. After studying his surroundings, he eventually turned to me for an explanation. I gulped as I didn't know how I would explain this mansion was close to exploding.

"I wanted to create a waterpark inside the pool since you would never let me visit one. And I accidentally messed up on a spell in the process," I kept things vague.

"What spell did you use?" Luke tried to keep calm.

"Whirlpool, tsunami, and fire tornado," I hoped he could solve this.

"You used all of them?" Charles' eyes widened.

"I only poured around a quarter of my mana in each of them, ok?" I couldn't look at them.

"A quarter Rika?" Alex shouted at me.

Since Alex and Charles were inside my body before, they knew how much a quarter truly amounted. They sprinted to join us, finding the water levels slowly increasing on this floor. I was doomed if one of them opened the door. I felt like crying since the fire spell was too effective. I knew the situation was worsening on the other side. I didn't want to see the fire tornado getting larger.

"Let's open the door first," Luke decided.
