Chapter 145 Impulsive Alicia!

Chapter 145 Impulsive Alicia!

*Shrwing!*

Unsheathing her sword, Alicia thrust it at Olivia with all her might.

*Swish*

*Ting! *

With her two fingers, Olivia blocked Alicia's sword, which was just a few centimeters away from piercing her right eye. Then, with a smile, she said, "Wow! No mercy at all!"

Alicia's frown deepened upon seeing her attack fail, but she knew there was no turning back now. Despite being completely outmatched, Alicia was ready to fight relentlessly. Just when she was about to get aggressive with her attacks. Luis' voice sounded.

"Stop it, Alicia. You can't do anything to her."

Luis felt a headache, wondering why Alicia was being so impulsive out of a sudden. 'Even if she is angry. She should think before she acts.'

*Sigh*

'I'll punish Alicia later. Let's deal with the situation first.'

As he thought so, Luis glanced at Olivia and, with a calm expression on his face, he closed in the distance between them.

Alicia, who was about to attack, paused after hearing his words. While keeping her attack stance, she stared at the still Olivia with caution and spoke.

"I'm aware, Luis... but ... she doesn't care about saving those kids. You saw everything. Mr. Mayor trusted her so much and even begged to the point of crying. If she doesn't want to help, why give them hope?! I can't tolerate this kind of woman."

"Calm down, Alicia. Professor Olivia was intentionally provoking us."

"What...?!"

Luis pulled the stunned Alicia behind him. Then, observing Olivia, he asked. "Professor, care to tell us why?"

Olivia chuckled. "Well, I just wanted to see how you three will react."

"Huh...?!" Alicia knit her brows in confusion. Then, with a serious expression, she said, "This is not funny, professor."

Luis' immediate rejection surprised Olivia. "Are you sure? The reward is a D-rank skill scroll of your choice from the academy's collection or my movement technique. You still don't want to try?" She tempted them.

"No need," Alicia said with a serious expression.

"Yes, even if I want your movement technique, Professor. I will get it after collecting those merit points. So, please save those children." Diana said.

"Heh, you guys surprise me again and again." Olivia smiled, then thought of something. "Okay, fine. Let's do it this way. I'll give you guys a 3-hour time limit to save those kids. If you can succeed, the rewards are yours. If you can't, then I will save those kids and you get nothing."

When he heard this, a contemplative expression appeared on Luis's face. 'Does she mean to say that those kids will be safe for 3 hours at the very least?'

Before Alicia and Diana can reject her. Luis asked. "Professor, will you act immediately if the children's safety is at risk?"

"Of course! Not only that, but you can also ask for my help anytime. It's just that if you do so. Then you won't get the rewards." Olivia said, then she added. "Also, remember, you only have 3 hours. Within that time, I can assure you that nothing will happen to those kids."

At her assurance, Alicia and Diana, who were about to reject her, stopped. Alicia turned to look at Luis as if asking for something. When she saw him nod, her frown relaxed, and a firm expression appeared on her face.

"Okay, professor. Let us complete this mission and rescue those children." Alicia said.

"Good, then you guys can start. I'll just follow along and observe how you do this mission. So, don't mind me." Olivia said, then stopped talking. Stood on the side trying to be inconspicuous.

"Wait! Why did you guys accept it? What about the children?" Diana was stunned by Alicia's sudden change of decision.

"Don't worry, Diana. We will save those children. If we find them in danger, we will immediately ask for the professor's help." Luis said. Although he also wanted to reject her. However, from her assurance. He was sure that Olivia must have a reason for the confidence. 'Maybe she has a backhand that can ensure the safety of those children.' If that is the case, then it doesn't hurt trying.

"Are you sure, Luis?" Diana asked with some worry.

"Yeah, I am."

"Okay, then let's do as you say. Since the professor is heartless. We can only save those children ourselves."

Olivia's mouth twitched. 'I am not heartless. I am doing all this to test you three. If I didn't have my friend ensuring the safety of those children. I wouldn't have brought you three on this mission at all.'

*Sigh*

'Everything was going perfectly. Today I was going to let them clean up my private warehouse as punishment. After all, it has become too dirty. But who knew this urgent mission would come? Fortunately, Hena acted early. Now I can use this chance to test these kids. See if they are worth my direct guidance.'

'At least from their character they are, as for other things. I can confirm when they do the mission.'
