The Genius Mage

She flipped through it for a long time.

Perhaps as midnight slowly passed, Klein's aggressiveness gradually disappeared and he returned to his puppet form. As such, Audrey knew that it was probably early in the morning.

Kate also came out of the tent drowsily.

"Nothing happened at night, right?" He asked.

"No, everything is normal," Audrey answered softly.

Although they could basically tell that it was early in the morning, the forest was still pitch-black. After packing up, they continued walking with Klein.

If they could pass through this misty forest as soon as possible, perhaps Klein would be able to recover.

As they walked, Audrey suddenly heard the sound of friction. It was rustling as if something was moving. She looked around with the help of the ball of fire, but there seemed to be nothing.

"What's wrong?" Kate noticed Audrey's actions and asked in puzzlement.

"Shh, listen carefully."

The air suddenly became very quiet. After a while, the rustling sound disappeared. The two of them could not tell where the sound came from.

"It's probably just the sound of the wind," Kate said casually.

Before she could finish her sentence, a cane whip suddenly appeared from the side. It seemed to have a consciousness as it rushed at Kate at an extremely fast speed and wrapped around his ankles.

Before Audrey could react, Kate had already been pulled away. The cane whip climbed up the tree again, and Kate was also hung upside down.

"Kate!" Audrey shouted nervously.

"Audrey, I'm fine! Take care of yourself," Kate responded in time and tried to use his combat aura to cut off the cane whip that was wrapped around him.

However, when his combat aura struck the cane whip, there was not much of a reaction.

Damn it!

Audrey looked at her surroundings and decided to save Kate. She took a few steps forward and borrowed the force of the wind to take a few steps into the air. The longsword in her hand brought with it an intense combat aura as she swung it at the cane whip.

However, before she could get close to the cane whip that was wrapped around Kate, another one appeared beside her. It wrapped around Audrey's sword and swung her around a few times.

From the side, numerous cane whips appeared densely and whipped Audrey's body.

"Audrey!" Kate was burning with anxiety as he watched. He struggled with all his might, but it was to no avail.

For a moment, Audrey was also somewhat unable to withstand the torture of these cane whips. This was because these cane whips were too messy. If she was unprepared, she would be injured.

After being whipped a few times, Audrey decisively injected most of her combat aura into her longsword. "Shattering technique!"

The longsword exploded with a tremendous force, shattering the whips that were wrapped around it. Some of the whips retracted, and Audrey temporarily landed safely on the ground.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she went forward and used the same technique to break the whips that were wrapped around Kate, saving her.

"Audrey, you're injured," Kate said worriedly. When the vines struck Audrey's body, his heart felt as though it had been cut by a knife.

Now, he could vaguely see some blood seeping out of Audrey's body.

"It's fine," Audrey replied.

To her, these injuries were just minor injuries. When the time came, she would be able to completely recover after soaking in the hot spring water.

At the moment, the most important thing was still these cane whips. They seemed to be very difficult to deal with.

Just as she was thinking, the cane whips launched another attack. Dozens of cane whips appeared in an instant, consciously aiming at the two of them. Audrey would never allow the cane whips to harm herself and Kate again.

"Great Goddess of ice and snow, please bestow upon me your divine power, the power of ice and frost, to destroy everything!" As she chanted, Audrey slowly rose into the air, enveloped in ice and frost.

She gathered the power of magic and sprinkled all the ice and snow onto the vines. Some of the vines were frozen and could not move.

"Great Goddess of ice and snow, please bestow upon me the power of fire, the burning spell!" Audrey chanted another incantation, and the fireballs enveloped her. She struck the fireballs onto the vines again, letting them burn to their heart's content.

The cane whip seemed to feel pain as it danced wildly in the air. A burning smell spread through the forest, and the corners of Audrey's mouth curled into a confident smile.

"Audrey, you're too powerful."

"You only used a few skills."

After dealing with the cane whip, they continued forward.

In the endless darkness behind them, a cane whip was slowly moving...

After walking for a distance, Audrey and the others rested on the spot.

"Audrey, what about your injuries?" Kate was still concerned about Audrey's injuries.

"It's nothing. I'll go rest for a while." As she said that, Audrey entered the tent and plunged into the otherworldly realm. She took off her clothes and entered the hot spring water.

Although she often bathed in the hot spring water, the water here remained clear and sweet. It was very strange, which was why Audrey dared to take it out and give it to others to drink.

When she touched the hot spring water in the injured area, she felt a cool sensation. Audrey could even feel the wound healing.

Half an hour later, she came out of the hot spring water. There were no scars on her body. Her soft skin seemed to be even whiter than before.

Audrey was about to put on her clothes and leave when she suddenly heard movement from the hot spring water behind her.

She turned her head abruptly and saw a snow-white thing floating on the surface of the water. It was round and looked very cute.

Just as Audrey was about to investigate, the thing suddenly rolled, revealing its round head. Its two round eyes were twinkling. It was simply a snow-white meatball, and it was so cute.

Audrey's heart instantly softened.

"I can finally come out." The meatball walked out from the hot spring. Its legs were about the length of a hand.
