Port Quinte, passenger terminal.
It was a clear spring afternoon.
The sun shone on the sea, creating a golden shimmer.
A pretty girl in a school uniform stood on the dock.
From time to time, she glanced toward the bay.
Her clear eyes were filled with anticipation.
Ever since receiving her brother's letter, Kelly had rushed to the dock after school to find out when the "Horizon Star" would arrive.
Finally, it was confirmed: this afternoon!
Kelly had taken a day off from school and arrived at the dock early, specifically to pick up her brother.
Across the harbor, a resounding horn blared.
The "Horizon Star" sailboat was slowly entering.
"Oh! It's finally here!"
Kelly couldn't help but leap for joy!
"Alan! Alan! I'm here!"
She waved repeatedly at the sailboat, calling out her brother's name.
Perhaps in her excitement, Kelly didn't notice a pair of eyes not far away, observing her with ill intent.
"I never imagined I'd meet such a beautiful young woman in such a remote place!"
"Seeing that girl's lively and lovely appearance, it felt like I'd regained my youth."
"Tsk tsk! Look at those big breasts, that slender waist, that butt... What a charming little fairy!"
"What a lucky girl!"
"She's so lucky!"
"She's been honored to be a foot-washing maid for a sorcerer."
"I bet she'd be flattered by this, right?"
"Hehehehe..."
The wretched-looking old man stared at Kelly, muttering to himself.
Occasionally, he let out a revealing, lewd laugh.
He made no effort to conceal his obscene thoughts. He put on what he thought was a dashing act and snapped his fingers at Kelly.
Snap!
The crisp sound masked the sound of the spell being chanted.
Magic power transformed into a ray of green light, illuminating the young girl.
The first-level spell, "Charm Person," was thus cast upon Kelly.
If the recipient is charmed, they will involuntarily develop a liking for the caster, willingly submitting to their commands, even if it means demanding they immediately follow him aboard.
"My little beauty, I have a first-class cabin on board."
"The bed in first class is big and soft."
"I'm looking forward to your performance in bed."
The old man's smile grew more lewd, his imagination simmering.
But in the blink of an eye, his smile froze.
Kelly had indeed been struck by his spell.
However, mind-control magic doesn't always work.
I don't know if this girl was simply lucky, or perhaps possessed a high level of mental strength, but she managed to resist the enchantment!
Kelly felt dazed for a moment.
She shook her head, her vision clearing again. She hadn't noticed anyone was plotting against her.
She continued to skip and wave toward the anchorage, joyfully calling out her brother's name.
The old man raised a shrewd eyebrow, surprise in his eyes.
"Damn it! I missed!"
"Ahem! It's okay, it happens sometimes."
The old man forced a smile to save face.
He noticed the two apprentices around him were glancing at him with strange eyes, and his face flushed with embarrassment. "What are you looking at?"
"You two losers!"
"Are you just eating and not working?"
"Catch that girl!"
Under the teacher's scolding, the two apprentices hurried forward.
"Hey! What do you want?"
Two strange men approached with ill intentions.
Kelly suddenly became alert, picked up her schoolbag, and stepped back.
"Girl, it's your honor to be noticed by our teacher."
"If you don't want to suffer, just obey!"
"After the teacher's done having fun, maybe it'll be my turn..."
One of the apprentices, grinning, reached out to grab Kelly.
"Get your paws off!"
Kelly had seen plenty of these little hooligans working in the tavern.
With a wave of his hand, he pushed the man's arm away. "Ouch! That hurts!"
The apprentice grimaced.
He hadn't expected this delicate girl to be so strong.
What he hadn't expected was yet to come.
Kelly was no weakling.
Being teased in public, how could she not fight back?
Even as the man was still rubbing his wrist, her pretty face darkened and she silently charged forward!
Like a swift female leopard!
The man across from him was stunned, and before he could react, Kelly had already pounced on him and delivered a vicious knee strike.
A dull thud!
She hit him square in the crotch, sending him sprawling backward.
The apprentice lay on the ground, curled up like a shrimp.
He clamped his thighs together, clutching his crotch with both hands, howling in agony. "Damn it! What a vicious little girl!"
Another apprentice hurriedly made a spellcasting gesture.
He intended to use a trick to subdue the fiery young mare.
Kelly wasn't a spellcaster, but she had a sorcerer brother after all.
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run.
As soon as he saw the apprentice making gestures and mumbling something, he immediately guessed he was going to cast a spell.
Without a second thought, he charged forward!
As he ran, he tore off his schoolbag and swung it with both hands!
The bag whistled like a meteor hammer!
BANG!
The bag slammed heavily onto the apprentice's head.
He saw stars!
The apprentice's concentration on the spell was interrupted.
Not only did the spell fail, but the magic also backfired, causing a splitting headache and a groaning fit.
Kelly, who often dealt with street thugs in the tavern, knew the importance of not letting go when one is in a strong position.
Attack him while he's weak!
She lunged forward!
She thrust her right hand forward, grabbed the apprentice's hair, and yanked.
The apprentice felt a stinging pain on his scalp and involuntarily lowered his head.
At the same time, the girl had already raised her knee.
It was like a hammer under a sledgehammer, crashing fiercely into his face.
Puff!
Another muffled sound of flesh colliding.
Even from a distance, it made one's scalp tingle.
The apprentice's face flushed with red as he was struck head-on.
She fell to the ground with a scream, her nose bleeding profusely, unable to get up again!
The old man watching was shocked and furious.
You don't know until you hit her, and once you hit her, you're shocked.
A closer look revealed that this girl was not only beautiful but also tall and slender.
Her rolled-up school uniform sleeves revealed well-proportioned arms.
She clearly possessed considerable brute force!
Not only was she incredibly strong, but she also possessed extensive fighting experience.
Two novice apprentices teamed up, and she actually beat the crap out of them?!
"Hehe... this is even better."
"The wilder and more fiery the mare, the more rewarding it is to tame her."
The old man sneered and cast a spell.
A transparent hand, composed of a force field, appeared out of thin air.
The remote-controlled "telekinetic hand" quietly approached Kelly, hovering close to the ground.
Suddenly, it grabbed her ankle!
Kelly knocked down two apprentices and was about to retrieve her schoolbag.
Just as she took a step, she tripped and fell to the ground.
"Hey, hey... beautiful girl, stay down and don't move."
The old man, with a lewd grin on his face, remotely controlled the "telekinetic hand," intending to lift the girl's skirt to see the color of her underwear.
"I bet it's pure white!"
The old man muttered to himself, his eyes blazing.
At that moment, a large hand reached out from behind.
It scooped him up like a chicken and tossed him away.
"Ahhhh!"
The old man screamed and fell into the sea.
With a splash, waves flew everywhere.
