Chapter 481: Inexperience

"Run to the second floor!" Felice shouted as the madam realized what she planned to do.

Since the four shattered the window and flew to the garden before crashing to the wall, she should have some time to spare. She grabbed the sword and cut the rope that tied her hands while saying, "Go upstairs. Sonia, protect them!"

Felice didn't bother to wait for them and used her Telekinetic ability to half the children and flew them to the stairs so they could go as soon as possible.

At the same time, she grabbed her device and called Arnaud's number.

"He—" Arnaud picked it up immediately, but Felice stopped him and said only a few words in a hurry. "The orphanage and Julia Campbell are attacked. Help."

Without wasting her time, she tried to hang up the call, but soon a fireball flew at her, almost hitting her. Luckily, the madam managed to react and used a Magic Shield to block the fire while shouting. "Kids! Hurry up!"

Sonia also helped them as the children were crying while moving their bodies. They all ran upstairs under Sonia's guidance before the madam said, "Felice, you should go upstairs too. The reinforcement should be coming soon. I will handle all four of them."

Felice furrowed her eyebrows and shook her head. "If I run away here, I won't have any face to see my future teacher."

"I know your ability is strong, but don't get too close. You have never fought against anyone, let alone elites. Just make sure you don't go to the front and try to launch them away like earlier." The madam said.

"Yes. I will try to stop two of them while Madam handles the other two. After that, Madam can help me." Felice suggested. "According to Big Brother Kai, it's going to end within ten minutes."

"So, that's not just a mere call?" As the madam uttered that question, she stepped forward, finding the four people had returned to the hall.

"You…" The guy released his killing intent.

Felice's body was shaken since she never felt anything like this. This was the first time she felt death before the madam patted her shoulder while shouting. "Ha!"

That shout shook her heart and made her forget the killing intent for a while, allowing her to adjust herself.

"You're not an ordinary caretaker…" The guy realized something from the madam and squinted his eyes.

"You don't need to know. Even though my battle sense's grown dull, I am still tough enough to take care of you." The madam snorted and raised both swords.

Before anyone started, Felice activated her magic again. The blue magic circle behind her created a strong force to push the four people back, but they somehow stood on their feet. The magic managed to push them two meters away, but it didn't launch them anymore.

"…" Felice clenched her teeth, knowing that her magic wasn't strong enough.

Even so, she didn't stop there. She lifted all the items in the room, whether it was a carpet or a wardrobe.

She launched all of them to overwhelm the enemies, but one of the women actually appeared between them and waved her hand to the side, blowing away all the incoming items to the side of the house.

"What a useful ability. So, you are an unorthodox magic user too." The woman smiled and looked at the girl.

The madam already knew about her magic, but she didn't know how capable she was using it, so she got slightly worried and went between them to avoid any harm to Felice.

Felice, who got more protection, decided to use a stronger force than earlier and tried to grab the woman, squeezing her tightly.

The woman felt the magic power that tried to crush her as if there was a giant hand grabbing her and quickly let out a burst of wind that blew the Magic Particles away and freed herself from Felice's grasp.

"That girl is dangerous. Catch her alive… She will be useful in the future." The guy commanded as he focused on the madam. His instinct told him not to underestimate her, so he didn't dare to look away for a moment.

"Felice… You should go to the second floor to avoid any conflict. It's not a matter of impressing Kai Carter… It's something else."

"Madam, please let me be selfish this once." Felice shook her head and raised her hand.

Seeing her determination, the madam understood and let her do it.

While they talked, one of the women raised her hand and summoned a fireball.

A magic circle appeared on Felice's hand before the fireball suddenly hit something invisible. It was Felice's barrier that she formed by using her Telekinetic Power.

The guy shouted, "I will handle the older one with Merth. The rest of you handle the kid. If possible, capture her."

"Roger."

The madam wouldn't let him and charged at them, but the guy already arrived in front of her and hit his hand that suddenly turned black as if covered by metal.

The madam tried to strike him but realized that his hands were too strong when the blade actually didn't do any damage. Though she wasn't sure whether it was metal or not because she could clearly feel the soft texture of his hand despite its hardness against a blade.

When she was about to abandon her blade because she knew fighting against all these guys in this area didn't give her an advantage while exposing Felice to danger, the fire magician girl already appeared next to her with fire covering her fist.

The madam summoned a magic shield to block the fire, but it allowed the other two to make their way to Felice.

Because of the danger that Felice gave, the wind user raised her hand and created a wind spiral that tried to blow her away.

However, Felice used the Telekinetic Barrier again before pointing her hand to the side, facing the giant couch next to her. She launched the couch at the wind user before her friend came between them while kicking the couch back.

'Kh! Instead of stuffing knowledge and playing with this boring life, I should have trained my power and understood it more.' Felice regretted she didn't meet Kai earlier and gained the spark of determination to get stronger and live a fulfilling life.

Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret. She saw the woman that just kicked the couch leaped toward her, trying to catch her with both hands, so Felice went to the side while using her telekinetic ability.

However, she did something different this time. Instead of stopping the woman, she boosted her speed, so she would lose her timing.

Felice knew that her power wasn't strong enough to stop her, so she chose this way to avoid her attack while making her way to confront the wind user.

"What?!" The female widened her eyes in shock as she looked at Felice, thinking, 'Did she just boost my own speed and momentum to dodge it?'

She remembered that her speed increased and threw her off balance as Felice passed them to fight against the wind magician.

She leaped to her and released all her telekinetic power and directed it to the female magician.

The latter formed a powerful wind ball on her hand and tried to counter Felice's ability by blowing the power away, but Felice's Telekinetic power was far stronger than her wind.

The Magic Particles that bound to each other due to her Telekinetic Power didn't get blown away and Felice managed to launch her to the corner of the room with her back hitting the wall.

When Felice was about to turn around to handle the enemy on her back, the woman released another wind tornado.

Felice widened her eyes and gritted her teeth as she formed a spherical invisible barrier to block the wind. Obviously, she reinforced it with all her power to make sure she could block it.

Unfortunately for Felice, her lack of experience as a magician showed at this moment. Even though her power was strong, there was no way Felice would have realized that the wind was just a distraction for the woman behind her to arrive behind her. It shattered the barrier in an instant with her powerful strength.

And when Felice realized it, everything was already over. Her mind was jolted by an immeasurable pain as she spat a mouthful of blood. With her face looking down, she finally saw a hand piercing the side of her stomach, covered with her blood.

Regret instantly filled her face as she couldn't help but think, 'I see… It's impossible for me to become his student.'
