Chapter 323: I Think It’s Seriously Going to be Cooked

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The bluish-white fire hovered toward Ugly Duckling, which was just about to run away. It appeared to be moving at a leisurely speed, but it was still much faster than Ugly Duckling, so the fire landed upon it, and instantly erupted to encompass Ugly Duckling’s entire body.

Its body instantly stiffened, while the bluish-white flames spread, creating a large cube of ice. Ugly Duckling was frozen with its hackles raised and a horrified expression on its face.

“This...” Mag had wanted to rush over to protect Ugly Duckling, but he wasn’t as fast as the fireball, either. He wasn’t expecting Amy to use Ugly Duckling as her experimental subject. The little guy was less than a month old, so it could die quite easily.

“Such pure ice flames.” Sally was quite surprised as she looked at Amy. She had only been under Urien’s tutelage for one morning, and she had already mastered such pure ice flames. She was really stunned by Amy’s exceptional aptitude.

“Ugly Duckling won’t freeze to death, will it?” Yabemiya was still a little concerned. Even though Ugly Duckling wasn’t that close with her, she still really liked to play with it when Amy was away on her lessons.

“Father, that’s the new flames of extreme frost spell that I learned this morning. Isn’t it super awesome?” Amy withdrew her hand with a triumphant expression.

“Yes, it is indeed super awesome, but Ugly Duckling...” Mag nodded with approval. It was naturally amazing that Amy could master such a powerful spell in one morning, but he was still quite concerned about Ugly Duckling.

Amy seemed to be able to sense Mag’s concern, and assured, “Ugly Duckling will be fine. Master Ugly Duckling told me that even after being frozen by the flames of extreme frost, there’s a chance that the target would be able to survive.”

“There’s a chance...?” Mag’s expression became even more strained. What an irresponsible little girl. It would be an absolute joke if Ugly Duckling were to die from this ordeal.

“Yes, a very high chance...” Amy nodded earnestly.

“Then let’s thaw it out first.” Mag heaved a resigned sigh as he turned to the kitchen to find his knife. The block of ice wasn’t a small one, so it was probably going to take a long time to melt.

“This will do it.” Mag had only just turned around when a small ball of bluish violet flames appeared in Amy’s hand, and she tossed it at the frozen Ugly Duckling.

“I think it’s seriously going to be cooked if you do that.” Mag was once again too late to stop Amy, and could only look on as the fireball flew toward Ugly Duckling.

It was a fireball that could blast 3rd-tier swordsmen and magic casters flying. If it were to land on Ugly Duckling, the latter would probably be reduced to a pile of ashes.

To his surprise, the small fireball didn’t immediately explode upon making contact with the block of ice. Instead, it enveloped the block, and the ice was instantly melted before being vaporized. The bluish-white and bluish violet flames nullified one another, snuffing out in unison. At the same time, the ice and fire around Ugly Duckling’s body completely disappeared.

Ugly Duckling’s hackles were still raised, and it remained completely stationary for a full second after the ice block disappeared before shuddering violently. It leaped straight onto the counter, and stared at Amy and Mag with a dumbstruck expression as if it had no idea what had just happened.

“It’s completely fine?” Aside from receiving a fright, Ugly Duckling was completely fine, and Mag was quite surprised to see that. Both Amy’s snap freezing and defrosting skills were top-notch.

“Wow, Ugly Duckling, you jumped onto the counter all by yourself. Looks like I won’t have to carry you up there anymore, seeing as you can do it yourself.” Amy was also quite surprised as she looked at Ugly Duckling.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling retreated a couple of steps in a timid manner upon hearing that, and it shook its head at Amy with a pitiable expression.

“I don’t care. The fact of the matter is, you got onto the counter by yourself.” Amy shook her head, and refused to listen to Ugly Duckling’s pleas.

Mag looked into Amy’s eyes, and adopted a serious expression as he said, “Amy, even though Ugly Duckling is fine, please don’t use living creatures as experimental subjects for your spells. If something were to go awry, then we wouldn’t be able to rectify our mistakes.”

“But I already made sure that it wouldn’t harm Ugly Duckling before casting the spells.” Amy pouted with an indignant expression.

“Oh, then I’m sorry for wrongly accusing you.” Mag immediately gave in at the sight of Amy’s pitiable display. She was so kind, so there was no way she would put Ugly Duckling at risk. Urien had surely told her that those spells wouldn’t be harmful to living creatures.

“I tried it on Black Coal many times, and it’s still completely fine.” Amy nodded with a smug expression.

“...” Mag was suddenly feeling a little sympathetic toward that annoying crow. Who would have thought that the “honorable Fama Odin Ben” would be reduced to Amy’s test subject? Furthermore, Urien had to have given her permission to conduct those experiments, so he couldn’t really say anything about that. Perhaps it was part of a practical learning component of the lesson.

“Alright, come and have some food. Make sure to study hard today as well. You don’t have any lessons the day after tomorrow, so let’s go fly a kite together.” Mag patted Amy’s head with a smile before picking her up, and placing her on a chair.

“Really? Father is going to fly a kite with me? The type that can fly super super high in the sky?” Amy was overjoyed.

“That’s right, our kite will fly higher than everyone else’s.” Mag nodded with a smile. It was getting close to fall, and the winds were quite strong. As such, many people took their kids to the Aden Square and flew kites together. The day after the next was a holiday for the restaurant and for Amy as well, so it would be a perfect opportunity to do some kite-flying with her.

Amy waved her little fists around, elated, and yelled, “Yay! Father, you’re the best!”

“Aisha, Miya, you two should come and have a seat as well. We’ll open for business after having some food,” Mag said with a smile. Amy was always so easy to satisfy. He turned toward the kitchen, and asked internally, “System, can you change the wheel reward to the spicy grilled fish recipe? I don’t want the other things; all I want now is a recipe for spicy grilled fish.”

“No! The God of Cookery upgrade wheel is a revolutionary creation of the system, and it cannot be exchanged for anything! You can make the spicy grilled fish recipe one of the possible prizes, so after you complete the mission, you’ll have a one in seven chance of securing the recipe as your prize.” The system’s voice was very stern, leaving no room for negotiation.
