Natalia Chan gritted his teeth, just as he had expected, these people were determined to stain him with the blackwater, no matter how hard he tried to wash it off. But now, the situation showed that everyone was on Bar's side and had completely labelled him as a thief.
"So what do you want?" Natalia asked with a challenging tone.
Bar shrugged and sneered. "Simple, I will take justice into my own hands."
"Oh? Justice, you say?" Natalia raised an eyebrow with interest. "It's quite open and aboveboard for someone like you who has already framed me."
"You, with no evidence, can only present the stolen badge and expect to deceive us. You're too young."
Natalia squinted his eyes, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes. He really didn't expect that right after leaving the casting pavilion, he was discovered by other noble students who were on extracurricular activities. It was Bar, the one who stopped him and continuously scrutinized him, aggressively questioning whether he was a thief who climbed over the wall.
Natalia answered truthfully, but it only resulted in Bar's deep distrust. This guy even directly pulled out his wand and released explosive magic at him.
[Going too far.]
This was Natalia's only evaluation of Bar. Nobles always looked down on commoners, and now he witnessed it firsthand.
At this moment, an image appeared in his mind, a scene after one of Liya's training sessions with him.
She held Natalia by the shoulder, and her delicate face showed a serious and resolute expression.
"Little Luo, remember one thing: when you can't tolerate it anymore, there's no need to endure further."
At that time, Natalia didn't find these words hard to understand. He just didn't understand why his sister had to say such things to him. Natalia obediently nodded and said, "I understand."
Now, Natalia smiled slightly, his lips curled up. Maybe his sister really foresaw this situation and that's why she said those words to him.
[Sorry, Sister, I might have to... go all out a little.]
Natalia opened his eyes, and flames appeared on his hands. Then, the burning small flames slowly formed into a fiery needle.
"Oh? You dare to resist me?" Bar exclaimed in surprise. "Hahaha, it's pathetic. Don't tell me this is all your magic?"
Natalia didn't reply, but held onto the fiery needle as he looked at Bar.
"Hey, Bar, what are you hesitating for? Quickly deal with this worthless commoner!" Students from Bar's class kept shouting. In the distance, several students were approaching, including Liya, from 'Cold Flame Rose', and Nanawei from 'Wild Waves'.
"Hey, look, it's those two."
"Ah, I didn't expect that teaching a commoner a lesson would attract these two beauties. If I had known, I would have made my move earlier and shown off in front of them."
"You think you have a chance? Forget it, they wouldn't even look at you. What skill is it to bully a commoner who can't even use magic?"
"No magic? Are you blind? Doesn't that fire needle on his hand count?"
"Is that magic? Well, I don't know you, but I don't consider that level worthy of being called magic. It's embarrassing."
Nanawei immediately spotted Natalia confronting Bar, and she turned to Liya with a smile.
"It seems like your little brother is in trouble."
Liya didn't say anything, but stopped and carefully looked at Natalia not far away. When she saw the fiery needle in his hands, she sighed softly.
[It seems like it's about time.]
Liya silently thought in her heart, then noticed Nanawei looking at her with a mocking smile.
"What? Do you think your brother is useless and needs you to step in?"
Liya stared wordlessly at Nanawei, then turned her gaze back to Natalia.
"Hey, your brother is in a crisis, and you, as his sister, aren't you going to do anything?" Nanawei asked with a bit of anger and stood with her hands on her hips, giving the feeling that she was the older sister of Natalia.Liya looked at Nana Wei coldly and replied, "Shut up and silently watch."
"Huh? Are you crazy? That person is your brother!"
"He is my brother, not yours. No one knows him better than me."
"Bang!!"
A loud noise erupted in the distance. Everyone turned their heads and saw black smoke rising. They couldn't tell whether Natalia Chan was dead or alive.
Nana Wei glared at Liya and said, "You madwoman, it's too late now!"
"Is it really?" Liya asked.
"What?"
"Boom—"
A figure in white dashed out of the smoke and headed straight towards Bal. Everyone, except for Liya, was shocked to see Natalia Chan, seemingly unhurt after the explosion.
"Well, well! I didn't expect you to be so resilient," Bal quickly swung his staff, and a magical array appeared at its tip. Countless flames shot towards Natalia Chan like snakes. However, he swiftly dodged them and appeared in front of Bal unharmed.
"Hey, kid, you fell for my trap!" Bal grinned wickedly. He waved his staff, and a magic array appeared on Natalia Chan's body. The next second, flames erupted from the array, enveloping him in fire.
"Oh no, if we don't extinguish the flames soon, he will die!" Nana Wei said, pulling out her staff to try and put out the fire. But Liya, who was gripping her wrist, coldly said, "I told you, shut up and watch."
"You're crazy!"
Liya's expression remained unchanged as she replied, "Just watch."
As Nana Wei turned to look, she suddenly noticed that Natalia Chan, surrounded by flames, showed no signs of struggle. Normally, someone engulfed in fire should be writhing in pain on the ground. But why was he standing there motionless, seemingly unharmed?
Not only Nana Wei, but everyone was awestruck, gaping at Natalia Chan. Because he was standing in the midst of fire, as if it had no effect on him.
After casting a cold glance at Bal, Natalia Chan sneered. He abruptly waved his hand, and the flames burning on Bal disappeared as if his clothes had been removed.
"This kind of flame, with just half of Liya's power, you think you can defeat me?" Natalia Chan sneered at Bal. He shot a fiery needle at him, catching Bal completely off guard. The scorching needle pierced his wrist, causing his staff to fall to the ground. Bal frantically tried to pick it up, but Natalia Chan grabbed him by the hair.
Easily lifting Bal up, Natalia Chan looked at him coldly. Bal's face turned pale, and he stared at Natalia in fear, as if looking at a monster. He stammered, "You, you commoner! If you dare lay a hand on a noble, do you not know the consequences?"
"I don't know, and I don't care," Natalia Chan smiled faintly. Indeed, if he was only thinking about himself and his sister, he could let this guy off the hook. But that would just make him upset, and he believed that his sister would have guessed that he would say those words at this moment.
"I only know that when one can no longer endure, one must fight!"
"Bang!"
A loud noise reverberated across the lawn as Bal's body flew through the air like a broken kite before crashing to the ground.
Natalia Chan stared coldly at his classmates and said each word forcefully, "Those who do not submit, come and fight!"
