The Genius Mage

Chapter 351: Was Safe and Sound

“Let’s go out. It’s too dangerous here,” Klein said as he forcefully pulled Audrey out. When the others saw that the cave had collapsed, they ran out as well.

Fortunately, the cave had collapsed entirely after they came out.

Audrey’s heart sank. If the cave had completely collapsed, would the blazing flame beast not be buried in it? Unfortunately, it was severely injured, and she did not know if it could survive.

“I’ll go take a look.” Then, after a moment, Audrey calmed down and said in a serious tone.

She quickly took a few steps forward. Just as she was about to use magic to clean up the ice so that it would be easier to find the blazing flame beast, a strange movement suddenly came from under the ice ruins.

Following that, some ice blocks were sent flying. Finally, the blazing flame beast leaped out from the ice ruins and landed in a space at the side.

Audrey’s eyes lit up when she saw the blazing flame beast. She hurriedly stepped forward.

After it flew out, the blazing flame beast collapsed weakly on the ground. It was obvious that it had used up all its strength after escaping from the inside. Audrey could not help but feel angry again. She glared at Cathy.

However, it was not the time to settle the score with Cathy yet. Saving the blazing flame beast was more important. Perhaps, only the hot spring water could cure it as soon as possible.

“You guys stay here and watch. I’ll go and see if there are any other dangers near the cave.” Audrey gave a random excuse and left. When she reached a place where no one was around, she flashed into the otherworldly realm.

“Why are you here at this time?” Meatball opened his eyes in a daze and asked softly.

Audrey did not answer. She only filled some hot spring water and Meatball understood. He shook his head helplessly and said, “Sigh, looks like someone is injured again. Fortunately, the hot spring water is endless. Otherwise, you would have finished it sooner or later.”

“Don’t worry, I can’t finish it,” Audrey snorted coldly and retorted. She then left quickly.

Returning to the blazing beast’s side, Audrey did not care about the stares of others. She took out the hot spring water and poured it on the blazing beast’s wound. However, she did not dare to pour too much at once, afraid that they would notice something amiss.

The wound could be washed clean with the hot spring water, and it had healed quite a bit.

Following that, Audrey fed the blazing beast a bottle of recovery potion to restore the energy in its body. Only when the blazing beast’s aura gradually stabilized did Audrey relax.

She stood up and swept her sharp gaze across Cathy and the others, her entire body exuding a cold aura.

“Why… are you looking at me? I didn’t do it on purpose.” Knowing that she had something to do with the collapse of the cave, Cathy’s tone sounded a little guilty.

Audrey did not say a word. A hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes. Her hand, which was placed by the side of her skirt, secretly accumulated the power of the wind and released it, heading straight for Cathy.

The wind blades were so powerful that Cathy could not withstand them at all. She was forced to the ground, and her eyes were filled with hatred.

Seeing this, her teammates hurriedly went forward to help her up. They tried to persuade her, “Cathy, let’s go. It’s not good for us to stay here.”

Through these battles, they had already seen Audrey’s ability. She was superior to them. And for some reason, as long as Audrey stood up and released her power, it would make people shudder.

This feeling was truly terrifying. Even though Cathy was unwilling, she could only listen to her teammates and leave resentfully.

Not long after, The blazing flame beast woke up.

“It’s you guys.” It was slightly surprised.

“Yes, we’re back,” Audrey replied softly, telling the blazing flame beast everything that had happened in the village.

“They didn’t mean to hurt you. They were blinded. You and the villagers all need the frost bead. Wouldn’t it be better if you and the villagers lived together and helped each other?” Adrian also tried to persuade it.

In the end, the blazing flame beast was no match for their persuasion. In addition, it had been living in the village since it was born. It had some feelings for the village, so it agreed to go back.

“Sit up. I’ll bring you back with me,” said the blazing flame beast as it flapped its wings.

“You’re injured…”

Before Audrey could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by the blazing flame beast. “This little injury isn’t a problem. Besides, didn’t you already treat my wound?”

Audrey was slightly taken aback before she smiled in relief. Seeing that the blazing flame beast was fine, she could smoothly explain to the villagers.

With the blazing flame beast, the journey that was supposed to take a day had only taken a few hours. The blazing flame beast flew all the way into the village. The fire on its body had already attracted many villagers.

Everyone came to the ice platform and waited for the blazing flame beast to return.

“Blazing flame beast, we were wrong before.”

“We were too ignorant. These are to compensate you.” As the villagers spoke, they took out a lot of food, causing Audrey and the others to feel a little hungry.

However, seeing the villagers treat the blazing flame beast so warmly and sincerely, Audrey and the others felt happy for them from the bottom of their hearts. It was already not bad for humans and demon beasts to be able to get along so well.

Although the blazing flame beast had a violent personality, it was also straightforward. It had a clear distinction between love and hate. When it sensed the good intentions of the villagers, it gladly accepted them.

“Then, thank you, everyone. I will continue to protect the frost bead in the future,” The blazing flame beast said, winning the cheers of the villagers.

The matters in the village had finally come to an end. This was also Audrey’s most fulfilling mission. Without any killing or bloodshed, it had been successfully resolved.

And it was time for them to return.

Before they came, Cali had told them the way to return. They only needed to use combat aura to open the portal to return. Audrey crossed and merged, conjuring a few circles. A ray of light appeared in front of her, and behind the light was the way back.
