Collapse of iron, but I am the Supreme Strange

"Huh——" Clara couldn't help but grab An Yi's arm: "It really is the sea."

"Are you afraid of the sea?" An Yi rubbed Clara's head with a smile: "Oh, you can't swim."

“No way!” Clara said tremblingly, “Clara, I’ve never seen so much water before! Brother An Yi, will I fall in?!”

"The magic platform is very solid," An Yi replied, "It will definitely not disappear before its time is up."

"That's good... eh?! Before the time is up?"

Clara seemed to realize something, raised her head and stared at An Yi.

"Don't look at me, come here, look this way."

An Yi pressed Clara's head and turned her gaze to the other side.

At the end of the field of vision, where the sea and the sky meet, there is a large dark cloud slowly moving towards this side.

"In another twenty minutes, the storm will sweep across this area. What's even more coincidental is that this magic platform can last for exactly twenty minutes. Yes, not a second more or less, exactly twenty minutes." An Yi said to himself, "Clara, you have never seen a storm, right? Especially a storm at sea, it is really spectacular! The huge waves can be several meters high, the wind is loud enough to cover everything, and the surroundings are pitch black. Even the sea water will turn into a terrifying black color - oh, why do you look like you are about to cry!"

"An, Brother An Yi! Let's go back quickly!" Clara grabbed the corner of An Yi's clothes and said with tears in her eyes: "I'm scared!"

"You're right, Clara."

An Yi smiled and said, "You are absolutely right. We should go back."

He calmly pulled Clara's hand away and then pressed the dangling ring into her palm.

"You'd better open a cross-universe portal quickly," An Yi said, and then he rushed into the portal they came from.

"Ah!" Clara screamed and turned to pounce on An Yi, but what she grabbed into her arms was only the sparks when the portal dissipated.

"I'll be waiting for you in the dojo!" An Yi's last voice lingered in Clara's ears: "Good luck, Clara!"

“No, no way?!” Clara sat on the magic platform and shouted in horror: “Please! Teacher An Yi! Brother An Yi! Don’t leave Clara here alone! Woo——”

The sound of the wind whistled past Clara's ears. The girl tremblingly put the ring on her finger, stood up and drew circles in front of her.

boom! ! !

"babble--"

A deafening thunder came from the dark clouds, frightening Clara.

"Wuwuwu... Teacher An Yi... Clara hates you..."

The girl drew circles with tears in her eyes.

Chapter 4: Holiday in Kivotos (2k)

Imagine the dojo—imaginate it, Clara, imagine it…

The girl said this in her heart, and then frantically constructed pictures in her brain.

Wooden windows, doors, clean floors, patterns on the ceiling, and the snow-capped mountains outside the window!

Sizzle, sizzle...

Sparks appeared in the air in front of Clara.

"That's it! Come on, Clara! You can do it!"

She talked to herself while moving her arms around.

I have been studying in the dojo for two months! I stay in it every day, reading books or practicing movements. Yes, I remember every detail clearly!

The small table that Teacher An Yi often used, the teacup on the table, and the screen behind the table——

Think fast, Clara! The more details you can draw in your mind, the greater the chances of opening the portal!

Sizzle, sizzle—

More and more sparks appeared, and they struggled to gather together, trying to form a circle.

But soon, a strong sea breeze blew over and blew away the portal that had been so hard to shape.

"Ahhhh-"

Clara clenched her fists and stamped her feet.

Again!

There was some sweat on her palms, so the girl wiped them and continued to draw circles in the air.

What’s going on? Why does it take so long this time?

Clara thought anxiously.

It wasn't that difficult when I practiced last night! I could open the portal within five turns of my arm!

I opened the portal from my room to the dining hall last night and secretly ate the snacks left by the teacher! Why did it suddenly stop working today?

and many more……

Clara's eyes suddenly widened.

What did the teacher just say?

"Hurry up and open a portal across the universe?!" Clara grabbed her head and shouted in horror: "The farthest distance Clara can teleport is only a few rooms! Crossing the universe or something - it's impossible!"

A feeling of despair filled Clara's heart. The girl lowered her head. The bottomless sea was right at her feet. The waves were licking the translucent magic circle. Clara felt a little dizzy, and her legs went soft and she fell to her knees.

“Ugh—it’s all over!”

Clara turned pale and shouted to the sky:

"Teacher An Yi! Save me!"

At the same time, in the cracks of the multiverse.

An Yi raised his eyebrows slightly as if he had noticed something.

"Clara?"

He spoke without mercy.

"Well...it shouldn't be a problem."

An Yi sat on the wooden balcony of the dojo, dangling his legs in the air, happily drinking the tea in his hand.

He looked up at the snow-capped mountains in the distance - those were the Himalayas.

Yes, the entire dojo was built based on the Kamar-Taj in his memory. Kamar-Taj is located in Nepal, and you can overlook the many peaks of the Himalayas. The same is true in Anyi's dojo.

He enjoyed the warm sunshine and the beautiful scenery in front of him and yawned comfortably.

Clara stood up tremblingly facing the increasingly surging waves and the falling rain.

After being certain that An Yi could not come to save her, Clara took several minutes to calm herself down.

Without a normal mind, it would be impossible to concentrate, let alone any portal.

Come on... Come on Clara...

The girl encouraged herself like this.

When the sparks are blown away by the strong wind, they must be condensed again, over and over again, and must return to the dojo!

The rain was getting heavier - from a few drops to enough to block out vision and make people feel cold.

Most of Clara's wizard robe was soaked by the rain, and her hair was wet and stuck to her forehead, but the girl still persisted in drawing circles.

The rumbling thunder was like the footsteps of a giant, coming from far away and getting closer, so close that it almost exploded in her ears.

Calm down, Clara, calm down - wooooah!

Although she kept warning herself in her heart, the girl was still frightened by the lightning and thunder.

The girl who had grown up in the lower district of Beloberg had never seen such a horrific scene. She had never seen the sea with howling winds, lightning and thunder.

An Yi was right, the sea turned black and nothing could be seen within sight!

The magic platform began to surge up and down with the waves. Clara slipped and fell to the ground, and the spark circle that had just formed also dissipated.

She stared at the black waves that were so close to her, feeling that some terrible sea monster would suddenly jump out.

This fear of death was mingled with the terror of the storm, and the howling winds threw Clara into the most indescribable situation.

The girl hoped that the current scene was a dream, but the wet clothes and the howling sound of the wind kept hitting her brain, telling her that this was the reality she had to face.

On the other side, An Yi looked down at the broken watch and frowned slightly.

It seems to be taking too long...

Is there something wrong?

An Yi had a bad feeling in his heart.

He took a deep breath and suppressed the inexplicable feeling of anxiety in his heart.

Clara is very talented...a test of this level shouldn't be a problem.

An Yi told himself.

But he kept tapping the table with his hands, and the tapping sound proved that he was not so reassured in his heart.

"Tsk..."

An Yi smacked his lips, propped up his head with his hands, and glanced at his teacup on the table.

When his eyes looked over, the picture in the teacup also changed.

The originally still tea suddenly turned into a surging sea, and inexplicably appearing rain kept falling into this miniature sea along with the storm.

The scene in the teacup was exactly what Clara was experiencing at that moment—she was half-kneeling on the magic platform, trembling all over, muttering to herself, squinting her eyes and drawing circles forward.

Zi La, Zi La——

The sound of the spark portal exploded, and a few sparks finally appeared in the dojo.

"Oh, well done!"

An Yi immediately felt relieved.

"Come on Clara, I know you can do it!"

He looked back at the increasing number of sparks in the dojo, then looked down at the scene in the teacup.

Yes, Clara is almost there!

But at this moment, the twenty-minute time limit was up, and the translucent magic platform disappeared into the air with a swish.

"Eh?!"

Clara exclaimed, and suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness coming over her.

She fell down involuntarily and plunged into the water. This sudden change made the girl's mind go blank.

"Gu--help--"

Clara was flapping on the sea, and as soon as her head appeared, she was knocked down by the waves several meters high.

"what?!"

An Yi stood up suddenly and stared at the situation in the teacup.

The timing is too good to be true, isn't it? Isn't it going to be successful soon?

An Yi sighed helplessly and walked to the center of the dojo.

Clara's body sank into the water. Her instinct for survival made her wave her arms and paddle her feet. She couldn't help but drink several big mouthfuls of the fishy and salty sea water, and she was almost suffocated by the choking.

But at this critical moment, Clara suddenly felt a magical spark blooming in her mind——

Yes, it felt like everything around me had quieted down and turned into a vast expanse of white. The feeling of suffocation and the bone-chilling sensation after falling into the sea all began to move away from me.

It’s magic…

At this moment, Clara seemed to understand something.

It is an inexplicable feeling of "magic" that comes from one's heart.

It felt like parting the clouds and letting the sunlight pierce through the darkness - so the girl clenched her fists, cut through the water, and turned her arms.

Swah——
