Chapter 188: Is it really that funny that I can’t even beat a “half-mentor”?

Hearing the self-introduction of the two girls with complementary hair and clothing colors, Elsa and Charlotte were shocked.

After all, these two girls looked so young, as if they were only a few years older than them.

To become renowned instructors at the academy at such a young age was truly amazing, even more impressive than Mashiro.

However, becoming an instructor at such a young age was not unheard of.

After all, Charlotte’s Master, Chloe, was also an instructor at the Starsea Magic Academy before she became Charlotte’s Master. Charlotte just couldn’t remember which rank she was.

“No way, they’re the newly promoted twelfth instructors?” Elsa couldn’t help but show an astonished expression.

“Hmm? Do you remember them?”

“No, I don’t remember them at all. I just learned that the twelfth instructor position in the academy had been vacant for several years. I heard that the original twelfth instructor was punished and locked in a small room because Kael took away her Master’s daughter. I don’t know if that rumor is true or not, but would someone really do that?”

“Uh… there are all kinds of people in the world.”

Charlotte finally understood who her Master Chloe was before.

However, even if she knew who her opponents were, the current situation was still very dire.

After all, she was being flanked by two instructor-level witches.

Wait, two instructors?

They just said they were the newly promoted twelfth instructors, the Witches of Love.

One was named Lyra, and one was named Lyra. They sounded like twins.

Why did they both have the same witch title? Did they need both of them to add up to be qualified as the Witch of Love?

If they were separated, their power might be significantly reduced.

Thinking this, Charlotte leaned closer to Elsa and whispered.

“Which one do you prefer, blue or pink?”

“Hmm? Why are you asking that now? I prefer blue, of course! Just look at my hair; it’s silver-blue!”

“Then I’ll leave the blue one to you!”

Leaving those words, Charlotte charged headfirst toward the pink-haired Lyra before Elsa could even respond.

“Huh? What do you mean?”

Elsa turned around and saw that Charlotte was already engaged in a fierce magical bombardment with Lyra. Their figures merged into the mist, quickly vanishing, leaving only flashes of magical light in the distance.

“Is she trying to make me fight the other one alone?”

Elsa quickly turned back to face the nearby Lyra, who remained completely expressionless, as if she didn’t even notice Elsa’s existence.

“That girl actually chose her opponent without consulting me!”

Elsa complained softly, but she immediately accepted the current situation. She raised her wand and pointed it at the nearby Lyra.

“Let me be your opponent! Don’t think I’ll be afraid of you just because you’re an instructor!”

“As expected of Gracia’s daughter, your courage is commendable. However, we won’t show you any mercy just because you’re Gracia’s daughter.”

“What? You’re my mother’s disciple?” Hearing Lyra’s words, Elsa looked astonished.

Before she could recover from the shock, Lyra had already raised her wand. Instantly, several magic bullets, like floating funnels, continuously shot toward Elsa.

Elsa quickly dodged, but one magic bullet still grazed her cheek, instantly burning off a single strand of hair.

“Wait, don’t aim for my hair!”

“I don’t want to become like Brother Ox!”

Elsa, dodging frantically and screaming, looked for an opening.

After taking a beating, Elsa finally found the rhythm of her opponent’s attacks. She was gradually able to defend against them calmly, even having time to glance at Charlotte’s side.

Although the mist completely separated their battlefields, Elsa’s magical perception was top-notch in her grade. Through her magical perception, she could clearly tell that Charlotte’s situation was similar to her own.

No matter how hard Charlotte tried to use magic, Lyra, standing opposite her, remained completely still, like Cao Ren defending a city.

Lyra on this side was the same; she wouldn’t even move. She just stood there like an automatic turret, continuously shooting magic bullets at Elsa.

“Hmph, you won’t even move? It seems I’m being looked down upon!”

Elsa suddenly aimed her wand at the ground below her. Instantly, a layer of ice formed, extending from her feet all the way to Lyra’s.

Next, Elsa lowered her body’s center of gravity and slid rapidly toward Lyra in a crouching posture, using barrier magic to block the incoming magic bullets.

No matter how powerful Lyra was, she was ultimately a witch. Close combat would definitely be her major weakness. By quickly closing the distance and utilizing her superior close combat skills, she might be able to defeat Lyra completely.

After all, the opponent was just an ordinary instructor; her magical experience couldn’t be far ahead of hers.

With this confidence, Elsa quickly reached Lyra’s side. At the same time, she transformed her wand into a giant ice blade and held it in her hand, charging at Lyra aggressively.

“Take this!”

It was like using Hinokami Kagura on Muzan.

Elsa put all her spirit into this attack, determined to shatter Lyra’s icy expression.

However, in the next instant, as if a spatial shift had occurred, Elsa suddenly realized she was behind Lyra, head-first.

“Eh?” Elsa was bewildered.

She quickly adjusted her body, landed safely, and turned around to look at Lyra.

Lyra was still standing completely still, showing no signs of injury.

“Did I miss the strike?”

“How could that be? I clearly aimed for her head!”

“And why did I suddenly appear behind her head-first?”

“I don’t remember teleporting there! Did she freeze time and move my body to the corresponding position?”

Although there were many things she couldn’t understand, Elsa didn’t stop because of it. She continued to swing her giant ice blade at Lyra.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t hit Lyra’s head.

Every time she got close, she would suddenly be thrown aside by a strange force. She didn’t feel like she was being thrown; it was as if she hadn’t aimed correctly in the first place.

“Why is this happening?” Elsa panted heavily, looking exhausted. She stared at the motionless Lyra with half-closed eyes. “Why can’t I hit her?”

Lyra then tilted her head and answered Elsa’s confusion.

“Since when did you think you were hitting me in the head?”
