I couldn't care less at this point whose house we were visiting next holiday. It was better than watching someone's death in front of me. I squinted when the boy's entire body became limp. There was no way I was going to let Luke stop me anymore.

The wind rose up as the fallen tree leaves swirled around my feet. It was already late when Luke discovered I have used teleportation. I raised my hand and reached out my arm towards the direction of the monster. Drops of sweat dripped from my forehead as I concentrated on my aim.

"Fireball," I muttered.

Like several gunshots, I pulled up roaring fireballs peaking as big as my head aimed towards the creature's head. I almost smiled when the monster let go of the boy as it turned to my direction. This was the perfect chance to rescue the boy out of this place and run toward the hovercar.

Usually the number of fireballs I pulled out would destroy the lower levels of the school barriers in the mana training rooms. I teleported to the boy's location, not wanting to waste a precious second, thinking the monster was dead. This was why I was surprised and unprepared when the creature grabbed my leg and started pulling me towards it.

My nails piled dirt on the ground as I resisted its strength. I threw away the grass I pulled and sprinkled it over the monster's eyes. However, the monster appeared more annoyed as it shook me up and down in response. I squirmed, entertaining the monster as it stopped to watch me struggle.

The monster smiled as the corners of its mouth lifted to the height of its ear like it had found a fun prey to catch. Its heavy breaths made my mind feel fuzzy like it was a spell to lulling people to sleep. But this was the perfect chance to finally try out another spell I had always wanted to try.

I had always wanted to test out how much power I could put into an individual attack. Wouldn't a nuclear bomb kill this creature immediately? I just had to somehow scale it down so that it would only hit the monster instead of the entire area. I visualized a smothering flame captured inside a metal capsule full of toxic air that was vacuum sealed.

The more scientific and atomic the visualization was, the more powerful it was. The scientific table full of atoms filled my mind, fueling my imagination before I yelled, "fire!"

I closed my eyes and immediately pulled out a lower level barrier spell to protect myself from my own attack. When I opened my eyes, hopeful that the creature was finally dead, my surroundings were full of charcoal. I sighed in relief as Shelly pulled the boy towards the hover car, bringing him to a safer place.

The mighty monster had obliviated into ash, indistinguishable from the burnt trees. There was nothing to fear from such a creature when I had enough mana to solve everything. Although I felt my mana supply level drained by half from the last spell. I walked towards Luke, before abruptly stopping when the entire ground started to shake like a tiny earthquake.

"I knew this would happen," Alex groaned.

When I looked at the edge of the clearing, the same creatures walked towards us like they were trying to avenge their lost comrade. Was this why they were trying to stop me from saving the boy? Did they know this was going to happen? I shot a look at Shelly to continue bringing the boy into the hover car, telling her I would take care of the mess.

Before Shelly nodded, she whispered something into Alex's ear. There was no time to wonder what it meant. I had to focus on chanting my next spell. Since fire wasn't that effective, maybe ice was next. I had less aptitude for water-based spells, but this had to change. The water levels in the air slowly rose as I manipulated the tiny water particles near the monsters.

All I had to do was to freeze these tiny particles around these ugly creatures to freeze their entire body. I panted as it took an extreme amount of control to carry out these kinds of spells. If I wasn't careful, I could be freezing the area around me instead. I reached out my arm to make my aim more precise as air pressure rose.

"Freeze," I initiated the spell.

My mind became dizzier as a thin barrier of ice formed to lightly freeze the creatures. But to my disappointment, the monsters had high body temperatures as the ice barrier melted fast like an ice cream cone. My heart skipped a beat when both Luke and Alex charged in with their swords to cut them down while they were immobile from behind.

These monsters had to be dead now. However, both Luke and Alex continued to fight with mana fused into their swords like their prior attack wasn't enough to faze them. It was clear now that other than high level spells, these creatures would be hard to kill. It was time to pull out more nuclear bombs.

I signalled Luke and Alex to back away when I was ready to chant more nuclear bombs towards the monsters. My concentration increased as they ran away from my aim, understanding what I was about to do. I raised my hand into the position I wanted as multiple nuclear bombs were fired.

People who were more skilled were able to do the spells without any chants or stabilizing their aim with their arms or hands. Unfortunately, I was still struggling to control my vast amount of mana, so this was out of my current options. My knees became weaker as I managed to abolish seven out of ten enemies.

Three more to go. I tried to properly stand back up when I heard Shelly's terrified scream, "Above you Rika!"
