If Her Will To Live Is Strong

Ning Zhi stumble upon her feet when she rushes wants to run and the result, she fell on Azure's body and they can't escape anymore.

"Invisible Shield." Azure creates a shield's spell and wraps his hand around Ning Zhi waist. When she tried to get up, he pulls her back into his body.

"Don't move. They can sense us. Wait until they have gone." He whispers to her making her immediately stiffen her body.

"Ca..can they see us?" Ning Zhi stuttering a bit.

"Under the shield, no. But, they can sense our movement." He peeks at the giant Triceratop with an invisible body, it is quite different from the dinosaur type where they don't have a hard beak and the horn is shorter than the actual dinosaur. Because he is one of the fairies bloodlines, he can see the creature clearly. Unlike Ning Zhi who can't see it at all.

"They're coming. Hold your breath." He reminds her and pretends to be dead. Ning Zhi also does the same. She holds her breath and lay on top of him. Trying not to move an inch.

She could feel heavy breathing and something like slimy thing touch her neck and it tickling her. She presses her lips together to hold her laughter. She is very sensitive in that area. And it seems like, that creature likes her scent that makes it want to nozzle her more and more.

Knowing that Ning Zhi couldn't hold on any longer. Azure uses his finger to flick on the air and one of the stones on the ground bounce to the bush to distract the creature.

Bzzzsshhh...

The creature turns around and runs to the bush. Using this opportunity, Azure push Ning Zhi's body and help her to stand up.

"Run. Now." He said and start running when the creature starts to notice them both already moves from the spot.

Ning Zhi feels like she has been cheated, Azure already run leaving her behind.

"Stupid, Azure!" She yelled while running following behind him through the forest.

The giant invisible resemble the Triceratop is not only they had short legs, but they can run fast!! Ning Zhi already dashes like crazy but still, the creature could match up with her speed. Azure is nowhere to be found right now.

"Azureeee!!!" She keeps yelling while running. In her heart, she already swearing him with the intent of killing him.

While she running aimlessly, and her butt almost got hit by the creature, one hand suddenly grab her waist and pull her up, save her at the right moment.

"Gotcha." He smiles at her after he put her on the unicorn's back, facing him.

Ning Zhi feels her face already lost any trace of blood, white as a sheet. She panting heavily and she thought she gonna die, but to see this man smiling at her like it was a game, she couldn't help but punch him right away.

Pap! Pap! Pap!

"Stupid, Azure! How can you just left me there?! You know how terrified am I?! What if I die back then?! I still not married yet, nor graduating and I still want to live my normal life!! Stupid, Azure!!" She still beating him using her hand, totally not aware where she is right now.

"Ow Ow Ow.." Azure just accept the beating from her. It's true this his fault. But, to make an escape way, he needs to find his girl alone. If there is another person with him, surely his girl would not be going to show up.

"Die you, Azure, just go and die!"

Grab her both hand, he looks into her eyes. "But, I save you, didn't I? Aren't you feeling grateful?" Saying with a dejected voice.

Sighing, she averts her eyes. Azure has a blue clear ocean eyes color. He had a blond ombre hair color and slightly curl. His blond is in a soft color…make her astonish a bit. Why did this man have such a beautiful face? Not as handsome like other men in her group in this world... but more like..charming in his own way. Ah~ maybe because he is one of the fairies?

Looking at her thigh, she said. "Thanks." thanking him for at least saving her before that Triceratop stab her butt. She already lost in breast comparison between the girls, she doesn't want to lose again when it comes to her butt.

"Sure. By the way..this is my girl. Phoebe." He caresses the neck of the thing that they rode. No..flying.

"Eh?? Your girl?" Ning Zhi turns her head to look at what thing they ride right now.

Once she knew what it was, she gasps loudly. "No way!!"

"Yes, she is." Azure smile proudly.

"A unicorn???" She shouts with excitement in her voice.

"Mmhmm. Unicorn."

"But…how is this your girlfriend?" She tilts her head after a moment thinking back what she just heard before.

"Oh, she just-"

"Don't tell me..you are into an animal? Oh my god! Here I thought you were gay. The way you dress is looking like one, never thought you into an animal. Wait, is this something legal in this world? How did you two communicate? I never met someone like you before. I -"

"Hey, hey! You thought I were what??" He snapped at her with an annoyed voice.

"Uh? Into an animal?" She blinks her eyes.

"No, after that."

"Em…Gay?"

Azure slowly closed his eyes and clenching his jaw. "I'M NOT." he tries to suppress his voice to not yell at her.

"What?" Yup, she does not really catch the word.

"I'm not as what you've accused me." He said with firmly.

Feeling a bit guilty, her mouth turns into an 'O' shape. "Oh."

"Since you accused me, you gonna receive my punishment. I still your teacher, no?" He uses his title to get his revenge.

"Umm..but..I-"

"Shush. Shut your mouth."

Immediately, Ning Zhi shrinks a bit. She knit her eyebrow thinking of what kind of punishment he would use.

…

Trembling, Rachael reaches the top of the icy mountain. Her hand full of the blister, swollen and covered with blood. Her foot already broke and turn a bit blue. Her body is full of bruise and half of her hair already froze by the blizzard.

Shivering, she pulls up her body and lay on the hard-sting icy ground.

"I..I..I.. ma..ma..made…it.." She speaks with what left. She feels like she's gonna die. Froze to death. This training is tougher than what she experiences in her world.

If her mother sees her condition like this, she surely his father won't be allowed into the bedroom for at least months. And she will likely be locked up in her room until her mother calms down.

When Rachael reach the top of the mountain, Heath was reading a book. When he saw her, his first reaction is to look at the stopwatch he already set before.

"Hm..you're late around one hour." He stands up and put the book inside the thick clothes he was wearing.

He looks down at the girl who looks half alive with her current condition. He trailing her body and saw that she use her iron armor to make a sharp pointy boot for her to climb, a chained dagger to pull her up and based on her wound, she might have fallen down from the mountain wall a few times.

Rachael sigh when she thought she get on top of the mountain on time, but it seems like she was late for one hour. The other boys in the Academy must've passed this stage, right? How weak is she?

"Since you're late. A punishment still a punishment. I want you to practice meditation here, try to heat yourself for at least two or three more hours? If you pass..I'll brings you back. If not…guess I'll just have to kick your body down the cliff, right?"

Rachael feels like she was just hit by the big rock on her head. "She barely alive to achieve the top of this icy mountain. And now, this man wants to leave her here? Froze her to death? Is he insane? Didn't he see her condition right now?

She can't even walk anymore. Oh…this is when she felt like it's better to end her life now. This is too hard for her.

"I..I can't.." She stuttering. Her eyelash fluttering with a hint to cry anytime now.

"Oh? Why? I can still hear you talking..don't waste your energy. You need it for two more hours." He neglects her request to quit.

Open the portal, he steps in and leaves her. If her will to live is strong, she will survive no matter what. If not, then..she's not suitable to be in his class.

He can see she has a talent. That is why he accepted to personally train her. Only a few people he acknowledges will get this special regiment from him.
