Chapter 182: Springing The Trap

    Chapter 182: Springing The Trap


    With all the chaos energy that had flooded into Bree''s body filtered into a sparkling white pearl, Evelyn was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.


    Now that its source of power was gone, the Chaos Bone Spear should either have already broken down, or be a powerless shell that she could then reuse for herself.


    The only thing that disturbed her was the fact that she could feel that the intent that had been guiding the chaos energy had managed to escape in the end, though it didn''t manage to take back any of the chaos energy that already entered Bree''s body, it was possible that it kept a small portion in the spear itself.


    If that was the case, she would have to take the exhausted Bree and repeat the whole process again. Even if the threat of a weakened Chaos Bone Spear wasn''t great, Evelyn knew it was better to grit her teeth and wrong her little aunt than to take a great risk that might end up dooming them all.


    The pink-haired girl could only sigh in her heart, deciding to make it up to Breeter.


    Once the pearl was fully formed, Bree''s soul opened her eyes and blinked up at her, a trace of both confusion and fondness in her eyes. "Evelyn?"


    Evelyn felt a shock run through her mind, but she soon calmed herself as she grinned. "Has aunty recovered her memories?!"


    But the golden-haireddy tilted her head, as if her words confused her. "Aunty?"


    Evelyn was just about to say something when she suddenly felt a terrifying sense of crisis, and immediately shuttled out Bree''s body to return to her own.


    She was barely able to catch Bree''s fainting form in her arms before she realized that the Chaos Bone Spear had already exploded into fine white powder, and the two of them were shooting away from it in a bubble of water.


    Her confusion was instantly cleared when she saw a cart-sized wed creature shoot out of the fog at a terrifying speed,pletely bypassing the numerous barriers of water that kept forming between them as if they were no more than a light drizzle of rain.


    Clearly, the spirit power within the water was as ineffective against this thing as the element itself, and the cause was clear to Evelyn''s eyes - a thinyer of chaos energy coated its bones, repelling anything and everything that contained any other form of energy.


    Evelyn knew that this wasn''t the time to be in a daze, and quickly organized her thoughts as she held Bree in her embrace. With her little aunt having fainted, there was no way for her to use the purification ability to counter the beast.


    But now that had some understanding of how it worked, she was notpletely without solutions.


    Evelyn was clearly able to realize that this little beast was born from the ''intent'' that was left behind by the Lord of Bones. And it was this intent that had fueled the actions of the chaos energy that was in the Chaos Bone Spear, aside from its primary function.


    The ability for someone to induce their intent into chaos energy was interesting, and while Evelyn couldn''t do it herself quite yet, she still understood the basic principle of it.


    Just because she understood it, however, didn''t mean much in this situation. The little beast seemed bent on ughtering her and Bree for the crime of breaking the Chaos Bone Spear, and while Evelyn already had some understanding of chaos energy, the most she could do was give it some direction and use it to increase her spirit power, neither of which would help in this situation.


    Evelyn knew that there was no time to wasteing up with a chaos energy based technique under such dire circumstances. Aurora''s abilities were clearly unable to halt its advance, and maybe she would have to rush back to mobilize the main defensive barrier to lock it in.


    But if that was what she decided to do, until she was able to take care of it, who knew what havoc that thing would wreck? At the very least, the people outside the current barrier would be in great danger!


    Since Aurora''s abilities were ineffective, how could they possibly defend themselves? Not to mention anything else, the mere fact that the thing escaped the barrier created by the pirs and ughtered people wantonly would greatly damage the academy''s image.


    Maybe no one would dare believe they could defend themselves from this opponent, then, and most would choose to abandon them in that case in favor of self preservation.


    Evelyn could only grit her teeth and make the decision in her heart. "Teacher! Separate me from Bree into two bubbles, don''t let us go too far from this thing, and let it keep chasing!"


    Aurora frowned, not knowing what her student nned, but she still separated them. She was already going crazy from frustration as she saw all her techniques being rendered useless in front of this strange beast.


    It was one thing to not be able to face the Lord of Bones in person, but for just one of his techniques to be able to trouble her so, the tinum blonde could feel a deep crack in her pride.


    The crazed beast seemed to pause for a moment in confusion as its target split into two, blindly turning between the two bubbles before it decisively chose the bigger one.


    Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief once she saw it start chasing her. Had it gone after Bree instead, things would have been much moreplicated.


    The pink-haired girl turned her gaze to Aurora, her eyes filled with determination. "Teacher, send Bree far away first, and let me down, I won''t get caught now that I''m ready! I have a n, but it will only work if she is out of the academy first!"


    Looking at the tinum blonde hesitate, Evelyn grit her teeth in anger. "Listen to me and don''t waste time, Aurora! If something goes wrong, do you want me to spank you?!"


    Immediately after saying so, Evelyn lit a candle for herself right beside the one she had lit for Craig in her mind. Let her teacher be merciful when she punishes herter, oh please!


    Aurora seemed to have really been angered by her words as her eyes turned red. In all her life, even when she was facing ridicule in her youth, no one had dared to be so crass towards her! This student was really deserving of a beating, she was too soft on her, after all!


    With her eyes slightly red, she turned away from the pink-haired girl with a huff. "Shameless! Don''t me me if you die, then!"


    The bubble with Bree sped off in the opposite direction, but the bone beast didn''t notice at all as its ravenous empty sockets remained fixated on the now unprotected pink haired girl on the ground, who was watching it vigntly.


    Evelyn didn''t waste any more time as she sped off, but the crazed bone beast really was much faster than her, and caught up with her in moments. Just as it was only a meter away, however, the pink-haired girl shot off with a boom, creating a huge gap between the two in an instant.


    [Lethal Leap], an assassination ability, ended up being the life saving straw at this crucial moment, and Evelyn silently lit a candle for Craig in her mind. He was not such a bad person, after all.


    As she was escaping, Aurora''s anxious voice floated over into her ears from a distance. "Channel your spirit power into my anklet if you can''t hold it, I will return within a minute after sending your aunt out of the academy and handle everything else, you''re not allowed to be disobedient!"


    There was a warm feeling in her heart, but Evelyn didn''t let it distract her as she continuously used lethal leap to maintain her distance from the increasingly furious little bone beast.


    ''From my understanding, the intent is formed as a reflection of the very base of its owner''s personality, so this Lord of Bones must be quite arrogant and easy to anger, then?''


    Of course, her intention in running away wasn''t just to anger the little bone beast, nor was it just to save her life. Had that been it, it would have been safer to simply stay within Aurora''s bubble and figure out another solution.


    The pink-haired girl prayed in her heart as she shot off towards the pristine white tower nearby.


    When she had been wracking her brain over how to get rid of this beast of chaos energy and ill intent, she couldn''t help but think of this ce. Given that Bree''s ability didn''t work on this thing, it was worth a shot to drag it into theke where no form of energy worked!


    The only downside to this idea was that she would be taking a great risk herself, as Evelyn didn''t believe she would be an exception to whateverw ruled the ''Siren''s Call'', which fascinated even her teacher.


    Thankfully, she didn''t encounter anyone on the way, and a smile lit up her face as the ''Siren''s Call'' finally came into her view. It was often said that danger and opportunity came hand in hand, and she hoped today more than ever that it was really true.


    With another [Lethal Leap], she once again escaped the clutches of the bone beast by just a hair, and gazed at theke that was now within reach. "I hope this works!"
