This wizard only wishes to be a teacher
Chapter 151 - 131 Capture

"Oh, sorry." Lucien then snapped back to his senses, and started to salvage his potion, but he was still quietly observing every move Adeline made.

"She seems to have noticed that trap, but she hasn’t acted immediately... She, she is observing..."

Soon, Lucien came to this conclusion and understood that what he needed most at this moment was patience.

"When the great Count Sanaxis himself takes action, how could a mere inferior demon withstand the test?" Count Sanaxis whispered this beside Lucien’s ear, seemingly disdainful of Lucien’s nervousness.

Lucien did not pay attention to this arrogant and somewhat mysterious fellow, but quietly waited and continued to prepare his potion, although his hands still occasionally trembled slightly due to nervousness.

However, fortunately, such slight trembling is very common for wizards or even ordinary people, especially when engaging in potion-making, a task that tremendously tests precision. Therefore, even Carly didn’t notice anything unusual.

...

Time passed bit by bit during the potion-making, yet Adeline had not yet stepped into the trap, but instead constantly hovered around it.

She seemed wary, doubtful, and alert, yet also drawn to the trap, or rather, something in the trap, which made her somewhat hesitant.

At first, Lucien paid a lot of attention to her, but as time went on, his attention to Adeline gradually decreased, only continuously checking her location through his spiritual power to ensure he would feel it the moment she entered the trap.

[Your student Carly has successfully mastered {Blast Potion·Large}, congratulations on obtaining the Bond·Blast Potion!]

A system message popped up, making the corners of Lucien’s mouth curl into a slight smile.

He hadn’t expected that what was originally just a demonstration for teaching would yield results before Adeline did.

And with this bond, it seemed he was only a step away from a system upgrade.

"Could today really bring double joy?" Lucien couldn’t help but wear a slight smile, and just at that moment, Carly, as if offering a treasure, showed him the {Blast Potion·Large} she had just prepared.

"Mentor Lucien, I succeeded on my first try!"

"Hmm, not bad, not bad..." Lucien praised as he ruffled Carly’s little head, but just then, he suddenly felt that the trap had been triggered!

It was Adeline!

Lucien shuddered, but he had no time to say anything more to Carly, and instead quickly ran towards the trap, from afar Lucien could see a new figure in the scene—a "young girl".

"Wahahaha!" Count Sanaxis seemed very excited at this moment, laughing unrestrainedly, "I told you, when the great Count takes action, the capture is assured! Wahahaha..."

Lucien unusually didn’t retort, but when he saw Adeline trying to escape in the image, his brow furrowed slightly.

At that moment, Adeline was holding a severed limb drawn by Count Sanaxis and, seemingly, she hadn’t noticed that the limb was fake.

"Two-legged Long-haired Monster, fetch me some white paint right now, kakakaka... I’m going to show this demon what a dimensional strike is! Wuhu!"

Count Sanaxis was very excited at this moment. He spoke, but soon jumped down himself and, after rolling around on the white paint, he excitedly drew an arc on the surface of the painting.

And this arc had just passed through Adeline’s head and neck.

At that instant, Lucien’s pupils subconsciously shrank.

Because after Count Sanaxis’s white line split, Adeline’s head and body really parted inside the painting!

What... what kind of method was this?

Lucien hadn’t felt any fluctuation in witchcraft, but clearly, Count Sanaxis had just launched a successful attack inside the painting against Adeline!

Although nightmare creatures do not have vital points and decapitation would only weaken them rather than kill them,

But... looking at the situation now, Adeline seemed completely unable to reconnect her head with her body. After being separated, they seemed to be hindered by an invisible force from coming together again, forcing her to remain in this split state!

Meanwhile, Count Sanaxis, who continued to paint on the canvas, cackled and continued "flinging ink and brush", suddenly several white lines appeared and severed Adeline’s limbs from her torso as well.

"Instructor Lucien!" Carly was also a bit stunned at the moment. She looked at Lucien, wanting to know what this special power was.

"I don’t know either..." Lucien muttered in his heart, but still reached out and grabbed Count Sanaxis who was about to continue playing "Cut Adeline", "Alright, I still need her alive."

"What a bore..." Count Sanaxis muttered under his breath, but when he saw Carly, he showed his most "sunny" side.

Hehehe... "Pointy ears, scared yet? Offend the great Count Sanaxis, and this is what happens! However, this great lord is also merciful, if you..."

Carly uncorked a "Blast Potion - Large" and then looked at Count Sanaxis, seemingly comparing him with the mouth of the test tube.

Count Sanaxis’s speech quietly stopped, and a sheepish smile appeared on his face. "Well, when I was young, I served... no, I served the ancestors of the Fairy Clan, you must believe that I am professional in this field..."

"No, no, no..." Seeing himself getting closer to the Blast Potion, Count Sanaxis seemed a bit panicked, hurriedly calling for a stop, while through spiritual power, he began telling Carly something.

Carly’s gaze shifted slightly, seemingly somewhat swayed.

At this time, Lucien wasn’t paying attention to the antics between Carly and Count Sanaxis. He quickly checked on Adeline’s condition and also really wanted to know what that method used by Count Sanaxis was...

After all, that method was so bizarre and so unique, it didn’t seem like magic, but more like a physical representation of some rule.
