This wizard only wishes to be a teacher

The nearby Formal Wizards, upon hearing Lucien’s explanation, were first stunned before they realized Carly had another identity apart from being a Wizard Apprentice—she was a Pureblood Fairy.

Mainly because in the recent battle, besides the two Moon Blades, Carly barely used any fairy-related Bloodline combat techniques, relying more on potions and Witch Tools for defense and retaliation, her style more akin to that of a pure Wizard.

It was only after Lucien’s clarification that the other Formal Wizards somewhat belatedly remembered Carly’s identity as a Pureblood Fairy. Then, like a group of gamblers who had glimpsed a sliver of hope in their despair, they eagerly turned their anxious and hopeful gazes towards the images in the observation mirror.

Although they hadn’t "invested" in Carly, at this moment, they sincerely and firmly hoped Carly could defeat, or even kill, Beckett, the Heart of Electromagnetism.

After all, if Carly was easily killed by Beckett, then the investments they had made in other Wizard Apprentices would most likely turn into substantial losses!

Now, Carly had given them a glimmer of hope. As a Pureblood Fairy, she surely possessed some powerful and special Bloodline Magic, and if Beckett showed any flaw in his defense or counterattack, Carly might seize the opportunity, use her formidable Racial Art, and turn defeat into victory...

At least, this was what the Formal Wizards were hoping for in their hearts.

Over at the High Tower camp, Wizard Luotu slightly straightened up his body. Even though he still seemed somewhat casual, even slightly turning his face away while looking at the observation mirror as if he just glanced over it nonchalantly.

However, his left hand was now slightly clenched on the armrest of his chair below, his veins and tendons bulged slightly from the force.

Clearly, Wizard Luotu was not nearly as casual as he made it appear.

However, it wasn’t long before Wizard Luotu’s left hand, which had been tightly grasping the armrest, slowly relaxed, and he returned from his momentarily tense state to a relaxed and lazy posture.

"A bit stronger than that waste, but only by a little," Wizard Luotu lazily didn’t even bother to glance at the Grey Bone Wizard anymore but smiled and shared his opinion with the other Formal Wizards from the High Tower, eliciting a chorus of agreement.

"As a Pureblood Fairy... she must have plenty of potions. In the end, it’s surely the Heart of Electromagnetism who will be unable to hold out first..."

The wizards from the Greybone Academy felt a heavy weight in their chests upon seeing Wizard Luotu’s relaxed demeanor, but at that moment, they had no other option but to continuously "hypnotize" and comfort themselves with reasons they wanted to believe.

Meanwhile, the Grey Bone Wizard watched the observation mirror silently. As a Second-level Wizard and the strongest from Greybone Academy, he needed to maintain composure and mystique. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Yet in his heart, he was exceptionally concerned about the combat between Carly and Beckett, as it implicated his reputation to some extent. If possible, he too wanted to loudly praise Carly’s performance to irritate Wizard Luotu from the other side—just as the latter had done a moment ago.

Suddenly, the Grey Bone Wizard, who had been sitting statue-like, slapped the table somewhat forcefully.

The chatter and low conversations among the other Formal Wizards from Greybone Academy came to an abrupt halt.

Many wizards cautiously restrained their movements, observing Grey Bone Wizard’s actions carefully, fearing that any misstep might draw the attention of the already irritated wizard and become the target of his anger.

Even their attention to the observation mirror lessened, almost entirely focusing on the Grey Bone Wizard instead.

"Good... very good!" After a brief silence, the Grey Bone Wizard suddenly laughed.

This smile even made his aged and somewhat sinister face look much gentler, even slightly kind.

Seeing the Grey Bone Wizard’s smile, the other Formal Wizards felt greatly relieved.

Only then did they refocus their attention on the observation mirror, only to find that the previously drawn-out battle mode between Carly and Beckett had changed.

...

"This can’t go on. Although I have a large stock of potions, those designed for crafting various arrows and offensive potions are more abundant; there aren’t many restorative potions, and after recent consumption, the potions for restoring witchcraft power have already been used up nearly a third..."

As the stalemate continued, Carly also began to feel a bit strained. Although Beckett, as the attacker who mainly relied on Electromagnetic Force, was also dependent on potions to restore his witchcraft power at this moment, the consumption of his power was far less than Carly’s.

If it weren’t for Carly’s preparation and carrying of a large number of potions following Lucien’s advice, her reserves would have likely been depleted by now.

At that moment, Carly naturally thought of the other potions she carried, especially those designed for attack.

"Although these potions are usually stored in ’bottles’ and used with arrows to ensure high utilization efficiency, casting them directly should still have a certain effect!" Carly thought to herself, as she held two black potions in her hand that were continuously bubbling with tiny bubbles.

In the test tube, the black-red potion appeared somewhat thick. If one were to take a closer sniff, they could detect a hint of sulfur.

This was one of the attack potions she carried, the Burning Potion, an improvement on the original Blaze Arrow. However, the Burning Potion had forsaken the explosive effect of violent combustion, instead enhancing the flame’s temperature and damage after burning. If attached to arrows, it could shoot arrows with flames that burned continuously and were difficult to extinguish.

"Go!" At that moment, Carly no longer hesitated. Her spiritual power directly activated the two potions, causing them to transition from their original "silence" to becoming violent and unstable. She waved her hand, throwing the potions toward Beckett. The potions exploded mid-air along with the test tubes, forming two massive balls of fire.

The thick potion was quickly ignited, splashing flames all around.

Carly, protected by multiple shields, naturally wasn’t worried about the indiscriminate splashing damage from the flames. Beckett, who was further away, stood on a disc-shaped witch tool, relying on agile movement and dodging to avoid the clumsy flame splashes.

However, the five toothed blades he controlled weren’t so lucky. These blades, constantly revolving around Carly, seeking opportunities for attack, and continuously draining her magical power, were affected by the fireballs, and three of them were splashed with the potion.

These potions, containing tar-like components, clung to the blades and were difficult to remove, and the blue flames they produced were terrifyingly intense, hot enough to kill a Wizard Apprentice.

Under this terrifyingly high temperature, the originally red trajectory of the toothed blades gradually became unstable, and the magic runes inside started to deform slightly.

Eventually, the blades, slightly deformed from the burning, could no longer hold on and staggeringly slid to the ground. The alchemical runes inside the blades were completely destroyed, and even the trace of spiritual power Beckett had in them was directly burnt out by the flames.

Not far away, Beckett, watching the three ruined blades, couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly.

Although the destruction of these three blades didn’t backlash against him, the problem was that these blades were his most commonly used electromagnetic weapons. He only carried ten of them, and if they were all destroyed, it would definitely affect his combat effectiveness.

It was like a warrior skilled with a spear; without a spear or a similar weapon, even if armed with other weapons, his combat ability would likely drop by twenty to thirty percent. Although Beckett also had some spare electromagnetic weapons, none could match these blades in either proficiency or power.

This perhaps was the limitation of a Mechanical Wizard. Although they were skilled in manipulating various special mechanical creations, the attrition of these creations during fights with other wizards could have a very tangible impact on their combat capabilities.

Unfortunately, Carly had just found the most efficient way to destroy electromagnetic weapons.

Naturally, Carly noticed this point too. Her eyes lit up, and then four more test tubes appeared in her hands. Besides two black, thick Burning Potions, there were also two Blast Potions for making bomb arrows!

Carly hesitated no further and threw these potion-filled test tubes, while a Origin Bow appeared in her hands. She removed the shields in front of her, and her body, under the cover of faint moonlight, became somewhat ethereal and unreal as she entered the protective state of Moonlight Transformation.

Bloodline Art·Moon Curtain!

Unlike the Moon Curtain·Modified used by Lucien, Carly, a Pureblood Fairy, found the process of using Moon Curtain effortlessly easy, completed simply by the instant her consciousness connected with her bloodline power.

The toothed blades passed through her chest, but such attacks, which mainly caused physical damage, were virtually harmless to the Moonlight Transformed Carly. It was as though they had passed through nothing but emptiness.

Meanwhile, Carly had already drawn her bow, with three arrows attached to the Origin Bow—two flame arrows and one bomb arrow.

Draw the bow, release, draw the bow, release again...

While maintaining her Moonlight Transformation through her bloodline power, Carly also took advantage of her current period of high immunity to unleash a torrent of attacks.

Initially, Carly released some flame arrows, but later on, she switched entirely to the more powerful bomb arrows.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Arrow after arrow flew out, Carly not even aiming at this point, but instead adopting a simpler and more brute force approach—area saturation!

After all, she had prepared enough potions to use with the arrows, and these potions were incredibly simple to concothesize. Even inside the Blood Duel Mystic Realm, given some time, she could mix another batch of attack potions.

Not accurate enough? Then compensate with firepower!
