Chapter 155 - The Blast Of Spells!
Liam heard him, but instead of exiting the classroom, he went to the far corner of the room where he sat down on a chair in an upright posture with his arms crossed across his chest. Ziu shrugged his shoulders as if saying he tried to warn Liam.
Ziu started with simple spells that were given verbally or with the snap of a finger. According to Ziu, all of the spells he was teaching her needed at least a year\'s worth of training and were taught to children during their first year of school. When Adrianna started with them, it was as if she didn\'t need to be taught; it was all very natural to her. Her main mistake was that she would fumble with the names of spells, so instead of saying "Maka" to mute someone, she would say "Basaka" and make whoever it was casted on speak utter nonsense. Once, instead of turning a rat into a plant, her spell landed on Liam and the poor guy ended up becoming a mouse. Ziu was most pleased with the Liam who was in the form of a mouse.
Adrianna requested, "Please change him back."
Ziu started laughing and said, "No! You do it Adrianna. I already asked him to leave and sit outside."
Adrianna clenched her jaw and snapped her fingers while saying "Vlast". To her despair, Liam became a plant!
"Kazaka" she said as she snapped her fingers again. This time, Liam turned into a cockroach.
"Xenom", "Hajie,""Diust". Adrianna tried so many spells, but Liam kept converting into every undesirable shape other than a werewolf. Adrianna became angry and, in the end, instead of snapping her finger and saying a spell, she just thought about what had to be done. She closed her eyes, focused on Liam\'s image, and snapped her fingers. Liam was back to his human form with his hands crossed across his chest. He looked confused and anxious, but when his gaze fell on Adrianna, he was very angry. Quietly, he got up from the chair and walked out of the room. Adrianna lowered her head, but as soon as he left, she burst out laughing.
Ziu was surprised and asked her, "What spell did you cast on him to get him back to his human form?"
"I focused on what I wanted and snapped my finger," she replied truthfully.
Ziu was shocked. "You thought it and it happened?"
"Yes..."
"Are you fooling me?" He shouted at her angrily and then cast the truth spell on her. "Tell me truthfully what you did."
Adrianna shrugged and repeated, "I focused on what I wanted and snapped my finger."
There was no sign of pain in her voice nor her demeanor. Ziu was surprised beyond words. Before he could say anything, she added, "I also blocked the spell that you were trying to cast on me."
He was wide-eyed because he hadn\'t even told her about it. All he did was just point a finger at her. What kind of magic does this girl possess? Immediately, he tried to delve into her mind, but he was blocked. He was blocked so forcefully that he got a severe headache for two seconds and he felt as though he would die. He looked at Adrianna.
"Never, ever, enter in my mind again. That jolt I gave you was very small. Next time, it will be worse," she said menacingly.
Ziu had never ever seen a witch like her in his life. Magic was natural to her. He couldn\'t imagine the possibilities of her magic. For the first time in his life, he had met a woman who was much more powerful and more intelligent than he was. But he had never seen a witch that was so powerful, yet so humble. Her low profile was intriguing. Perhaps… even she, herself, didn\'t know what she was capable of. He realized that all she needed was to remember the names of the spells and perhaps some refinement.
He smiled at the new mission of his life: Adrianna. This was the only girl who had ever managed to even captivate his attention. He stared at her with so much interest that even he couldn\'t believe it.
Adrianna looked at him strangely.
Ziu snapped his fingers and a blue sparkle came out of it. He took his wand out, captured the sparkle with it, and directed it towards him. Adrianna saw that his entire body was being enveloped in the sparkle; the sparkle had formed a whirlwind around him.
Just then, all the doors and the windows in the room shut down in a way that no light was allowed to enter. The two of them stood alone in the middle of the room.
To Adrianna\'s surprise, from an average-looking short man, Professor Ziu turned into a devilishly handsome man who was over six feet tall and who had the looks of a Greek God with his blond hair. His light blue eyes completed the set. He stared at Adrianna and said, "This is the first time I have ever shown my real face to anyone in a long time."
