This wizard only wishes to be a teacher

"Lucien, to the right!" Carly perceived a multitude of things rapidly running through the mist on their right side, charging towards them. She hastily drew her bow and sent a warning to Lucien as well.

At this moment, Lucien also noticed the commotion on the right, but he did not defend immediately. Instead, he controlled three highly venomous snakes and launched an even more fierce attack at the mist.

Carly, without any hesitation, released a series of arrows. However, the toxin she had stored in the origin bow’s internal space had been depleted, so she simply used her most adept and longest-practiced skill, Multiple Blazing Arrows, hoping to repel the unknown enemies charging from the right with a barrage of arrows.

But as the creatures on the right approached, Carly gradually discerned their "true faces" and couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

It turned out to be a small group of Magic Beasts, and the types of beasts within were of all kinds, strange and varied. Some predatory and competitive Magic Beasts that were natural enemies of each other were now running side by side in harmony, rushing towards them for the kill.

"Acid Splash!"

"Resist Flame Ring!"

While Carly was slightly dazed, the two apprentices beside her had already launched their attacks on the beasts. These mostly mediocre beasts were clearly unable to withstand their assault, yet under some sort of control, they desperately charged forward, heedless of their lives.

It was clear these were Magic Beasts being manipulated. At this moment, the mastermind behind them was using them as expendables to assault Carly and her team.

However, what surprised Carly was that in the center of the beasts was a skinny young man with his upper body bared. His face was fierce, and like the other Magic Beasts, he was trying hard to swing his arms to attack Carly and her group.

"Perhaps for you, death would be a liberation."

A look of pity flashed in Carly’s eyes, but she wouldn’t change her actions because of the young man’s tragic fate. Even now, as she drew her bow, the first target she locked onto was the emaciated young man, standing out amid the surge of beasts, wanting to help him break free of his puppet-like existence controlled by someone else.

But as Carly’s arrow left the string, a change occurred within the group of beasts. Three Magic Beasts, who at first didn’t seem particularly notable, let out roars of anger and suddenly erupted with an aura not inferior to that of a Second-level Wizard Apprentice. The young man Carly was targeting also swelled rapidly following a roar of anger.

Muscles grotesquely grew at a staggering rate, even compressing against each other as if they could burst his skin at any moment.

In the blink of an eye, the once scrawny youth had turned into an incredibly muscular hulk. With a slight effort of his now thicker-than-an-average-man’s waist legs, he covered several meters, and with his terrifying physical strength, he exerted an imposing and even overwhelming presence over the nearby Magic Beasts that had erupted as well.

The three Blazing Arrows shot by Carly hit his chest with a solid impact and exploded, blackening the youth’s chest, but it couldn’t stop his furious and vigorous charge.

Even the blackened marks left by the Blazing Arrows on the young man’s chest were flaking off at an accelerated pace, revealing fresh red wounds and the twitching muscles within.

And these heart-wrenchingly visible wounds were healing at an astonishing rate. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Explode!" Lucien, of course, had also noticed the anomaly and acted even more ruthlessly, attempting to quickly eliminate the half-fairy that was an obstruction in front of him.

At that moment, one of the three venomous pythons entangling with the fog suddenly coiled around the black wooden stick in Fog’s hand. Then, under Lucien’s control, it exploded, splattering venom and exposing a breach in Fog’s defense. While staggering backward, he was unable to maintain his own defense.

Seizing this exposed flaw, the other two venomous pythons transformed into streams of poisonous liquid and burrowed into Fog’s body, rampaging unchecked within him and rapidly spreading their potent venom to every corner of his body. His face quickly took on an unnatural shade of dark purple.

However, at this moment, the young man had already reached a position not far from Carly and the others.

"Thorn Shield!" A Second-level Wizard Apprentice summoned a defensive witchcraft to try to resist the young man’s attack, but it was shattered by a brute punch from the young man. Then, the Wizard Apprentice was grasped by the young man, who radiated a fierce aura, and before the somewhat exaggerated fist, he appeared somewhat small.

"Roar!" The young man, with his crimson eyes, let out an angry roar.

Following that, as if breaking a sugarcane, he grabbed both ends of that unfortunate apprentice with both hands and then exerted a slight force.

Crack—the sound of bone breaking was especially grating.

But Carly had no time for panic at this moment, for besides the ferocious young man, other Magic Beasts were also attacking. In such close-quarters combat, Carly’s bow and arrows were rather cumbersome, and she could only manage to dodge awkwardly, barely finding an opportunity to draw her bow.

"Be careful!" After dealing with the previous half-Fairy, Lucien quickly returned but saw the violent young man already winding up his fist to smash it down on Carly.

All Lucien could do at that moment was to quickly conjure up two Ice Shields in front of Carly.

Bang, bang—however, under the violent young man’s relentless assault, the hastily conjured Ice Shields shattered almost instantly. The huge fist, accompanied by some scattering ice shards, was aimed at Carly and another Second-level Wizard Apprentice.

Just then, Carly’s body suddenly emitted a faint glow, and she instantly activated her Bloodline ability, "Moonlight Transformation," entering a special state of moonlight transformation.

Hum—

The fist went straight through the moonlight-transformed Carly without causing her any harm. It was as if, for that instant, she was in a different dimension from the fist, and it had only hit a shadow of her.

However, the other apprentice did not have Carly’s superior survival technique. He immediately activated a one-time defensive Witch Tool he carried, forming a thick stone shield.

Although his stone shield was slightly more durable than the Ice Shields Lucien had rapidly released just now, it was still insufficient to completely protect him.

The heavy punch struck the stone shield with a dull thud, the tremendous impact making the Second-level Wizard Apprentice’s face turn pale, with blood even spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"The key!" Suddenly, an ordinary half-Fairy nearby shouted out.

"The key! They have the key!" Another half-Fairy began to shout. Their focus was on Carly, who had completely revealed her half-Fairy identity by using her Bloodline ability, "Moonlight Transformation."
