Don’t be scared. Don’t be scared,

Karina breathed in slowly, repeating to herself. There was no time to panic.

“You learned how to do it.”

Just close your eyes and hold on, as Wilder told you, and you won’t get caught.

The problem is …….

“It’s already late!”

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t close her eyes or turn it as if they were nailed to the Mana stone.

Karina then realized that what Wilder told her was just a precaution, not a solution to get out of a situation caused by Mana stones.

Anxiety has struck her that she may die at this rate.

However, Karina did not give up.

As helplessly as last time, she fell to the floor and struggled, but she couldn’t get help from others.

Karina tried not to panic, even in a life-threatening situation.

‘Wake up. Running away from Sir Renke was more dangerous than this. If you don’t hold it in foolishly, you’ll be able to withstand it enough.’

According to Wilder’s explanation, the Mana stone cannot do any fatal harm.

Of course, he added that it would be quite painful even if she got out safely.

“I can stand it if it hurts a little.”

Karina would endure as much pain as she could if she could return safely to the children.

‘Even if I can’t close my eyes, the will of getting out won’t be much different.  So…  let’s hang in there.’

The main point of Wilder’s method was not that great, but “holding out.”

Even after being caught, the response method will not change much.

Karina tried to think of something other than the Mana stone in front of her.

Naturally, the thing she thought of was……

“Roland, Melissa.”

Karina desperately says their names.

Roland, who is innocent and joyful like a child of that age, and Melissa, who comes to Karina with a serious face, came to her mind clearly.

And further back, the appearance of the two children suffering pale and tired.….

‘I’m the only one the kids have.’

Cold sweat formed on Karina’s white forehead resisting the Mana stone.

She kept losing strength in her legs and felt like she was going to collapse soon.

Karina clenched her teeth.

If she gives in to the Mana stone powerlessly like last time, she will not survive unless someone saves her.

However, Karina’s poor knowledge and experience were limited.

She fell very slowly, sliding to the floor.

“I have to do something about this……!”

Karina closed her eyes tightly.

At that very moment

Red letters appeared in front of her burning like a brand on her bare skin.

These were the writings of the books I read in my previous life.

“The moment I opened the door, I had an intuition that something was very wrong.

Roland stepped into the house with high tension because his ominous intuition had never been wrong.

If I had lived alone, I wouldn’t have worried about a grain of money.

But Roland is now living with Karina.

Karina refused to receive any help since she was freed from Lord Renke’s grasp.

She doesn’t want to be a burden or something.

However, after Melissa’s death, Roland could not ignore Karina, who had weakened under the torture of Lord Renke.

Karina was only in her mid-30s, but Lord Renke made her look like an old woman with white hair and wrinkles all over her body.

Fortunately, Karina opened her heart to Roland’s earnest persuasion.

Even though it gave him a clue that she would stop living with him when she gets healthy.

However, Karina and Roland knew that the day would not come when she would be healthy.

“Master Roland.”

A weak voice was heard.

Roland quickly ran in the direction of Karina.

‘…….!’

Karina, whose face was pale, was convulsing, one step away from the stone.

Roland immediately noticed the situation.

‘It was originally a trap aimed at me.’

One of my countless enemies who I couldn’t even guess who they were, targeted me and sent a Mana stone that would explode.

Roland clenched his fist nervously.

The situation itself was not so dangerous, but thinking about the case of him returning late made him dizzy.

The exploding Mana stone was just an annoying level for a wizard who is as good at magic as he is.

However, a person like Karina who did not receive any magic education could lose her life in an instant.

He slowly approached Karina, trying to calm his rising anger.

“Karina, it’s okay. Breathe.”

“Young master…….!”

Karina’s wrinkled face was covered with tears.

Roland kneeled on the floor.

If it had been discovered before she was caught by the Mana stone, it would have been possible to forcibly disconnect Karina and the Mana stone, but it was too late to do so.

‘Karina has to escape on her own.’

He opened his mouth as gently as possible, trying to reassure Karina.

“Karina, take a deep breath… and let out the mana. Think that the mana of the Mana stone flows through your body. Just like the wind that comes and goes.”

“But young master, I can’t use magic…”

“Don’t be scared. This is not magic, so Karina can do it.”

How long has it been?

Karina’s fluctuating body gradually subsided.

Mana stone, that is erupting mana also returned to an ordinary block of stone.

After he completely stabilized Karina, he checked the Mana stone.

“As expected,”

His blood cooled down.

The initials of the sender were clearly engraved on the magic crystal.

C.D.T.

This time, she neither lost her mind nor collapsed.

Karina moved her body as Roland told her to do in the letters.

‘Magic wasn’t something to fight at all.’

It was not easy to follow Roland’s advice in the book.

Acquiring knowledge and putting it into action were completely different stories.

However, Karina was able to let go of the mana as Roland advised after holding out her breath.

Mana quietly passed through her body instead of sweeping Karina and making a mess.

The power is like wind felt intact, but never breaks.

Fortunately, Karina regained stability in a few minutes.

The raging Mana stone also calmed down as if it never went berserk.

“I, I’m alive…….”

Only then did Karina, who was relaxed, collapse on the floor. Her legs were swept on the rough floor, but she didn’t care at all.

Only the fact that she survived without anyone’s help was important.

It was then.

The whole store vibrated like an earthquake.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Karina let out a scream that seemed to boil inside.

The vibration got worse and worse, and the display case collapsed one by one. Karina held on to the floor.

“It hurts.”

Karina groaned. She had no choice but to feel helpless in a sudden change of situation because she had just faced a raging Mana stone a while ago.

‘I have to go out right now!’

But how?

There was no time. Karina crawled over the floor and reached only a few steps away from the entrance.

Karina struggled to raise her head. She could see Claude running through the window.

His silver hair, which had always been neat and tidy, was all messed up, and his cold blue eyes were burning with anger.

Karina desperately liked Claude’s appearance with tears in her eyes with relief.

‘Now ……. I’ll live.’

With Claude here, she will now be able to get out of this unknown situation and return home.

Finally, the last line of consciousness that supported Karina eased tension and gradually subsided with the gathering relief.

Karina’s completely unconscious body fell on the floor.

Claude, the Duke of Tors, took six rubies out of his arms and scattered them in the air. There was no time to delay.

Six rubies burned in the air, and the next moment, they turned into six dark red swords and were embedded in the ground.

He grabbed the six swords with both hands and approached the window, not the front door.

It was because the front door of the store had magic embedded on it.

Seeing how finely shredded glass was scattered all over the place, he could see how powerful magic shook the house.

Claude closed his eyes because she could guess the pain Karina had experienced inside.

Now was not the time to be immersed in emotions.

“Let’s not think about it. Mrs. Bloe is not someone who wants sympathy.’

He threw the first sword at the window.

Bang!~

The sword was thrust into the air, exactly one step away from the window with a loud bursting sound.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

It was a cutting magic method that completely cuts off the magical pulse that dominated the store.

“Mrs. Bloe!”

Claude shouted at Karina and skipped the window frame in a single step into the store.

“You punks.”

There was nothing big inside the store.

Wilder’s proud jewels that he has collected throughout his life rolled on the floor.

Above all, Mrs. Bloe

Seeing the white nail marks on the floor along with tears, he was furious.

Claude carefully raised Karina, who had fallen helplessly on the floor, trying not to lose control.

This was the second time he caused Karina to fall.
