"Wow!" Natalia Chan exclaimed. In the college, he suddenly felt a chill, and he was so scared that he shivered. But he had no time to think about it, because his sister in front of him was now his top priority issue.
For some unknown reason, his mother and sister's eyes seemed to show a kind of affection that only he could see.
"Not good, not good! This is really not good!" Natalia Chan thought to himself.
"Sister, calm down, there are other people here!" he said.
"Ha, Xiaoluo, Xiaoluo~" his sister called out.
"Can't you hear what I'm saying anymore?" Natalia Chan was almost in tears. His sister had to fall into this state at this moment!
"Natalia Chan! Are you okay?" a voice suddenly came from afar. Liya's body trembled as if awakening from a daze. She then blushed and pushed Natalia Chan away, turning her back on him.
Natalia Chan watched his sister's back in surprise and called out softly, "Sister?"
"I'm fine!" Liya shook her head. "The second class is about to start. I'm going back. If you don't have anything else, hurry up and go to class. Got it?"
"Got it!"
"Then I'm leaving."
After Liya finished speaking, she walked away from there. Natalia Chan breathed a sigh of relief after watching his sister leave.
"It seems like it's safe tonight."
Nana Wei seemed like she wanted to say something to Natalia Chan, but in the end, she just pursed her lips and quickly walked away. The students around her also turned and walked away.
After silently finishing his thoughts, Natalia Chan turned his head and saw two figures running towards him. As they approached, he smiled and nodded.
"Teacher Kino, Teacher Malock, you're here."
"Natalia Chan, are you okay?" Teacher Kino quickly stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder nervously. "I saw you getting burned by the flames earlier."
"Teacher, do I look like there's something wrong with me?"
"Well, not really, but why do you look completely unaffected by it?" Teacher Kino looked at Natalia Chan in confusion. "Did you use some magic or something?"
"I did use a Flame Needle," Natalia Chan admitted honestly.
Teacher Malock looked at Natalia Chan, stroking his beard. "Kid, you really surprised me."
"Um, is that so?"
"Teacher Kino, you should go check on the condition of that student first, and send him to the infirmary to rest," Teacher Malock said.
"Alright."
"Kid, come with me," Teacher Malock said, then quickly walked away. Natalia Chan scratched his cheek and quickly followed.
In the office, there were no other teachers present. Teacher Malock sat on his chair and smiled kindly at Natalia Chan.
"Do you want some tea?" he asked.
"I'm not really thirsty..." Natalia Chan felt a bit awkward and scratched his head with a smile.
"Well then, let's get to the point. Just tell me honestly, how did you manage to come out unscathed?" Teacher Malock said.
"Can I be honest with you, but I hope you won't tell anyone else?" Natalia Chan asked.
"Don't worry, everyone has their own secrets. Even if you don't want to say, I won't force you," Teacher Malock looked at Natalia Chan gently. "I can guarantee to keep it a secret, so don't worry."
"Then, can I choose not to say?" Natalia Chan asked.
"Of course you can," Teacher Malock didn't mind. "I'm asking you mainly out of curiosity."
"Curiosity?"
"It's rare to see someone who can come out unscathed from flames after living for so long. This is the first time I've seen it," Teacher Malock said.
Natalia Chan raised an eyebrow, looking at Teacher Malock's expression, which seemed like a smile but not quite, and unconsciously clenched his fist.
"Teacher, do you already have some speculations?""Of course, but I'm not quite sure."
"Can you tell me?"
Teacher Malock smiled mysteriously and slowly extended two fingers. "According to books, there are only two kinds of people who can do what you can do. One is the Fire Control Body, naturally born with the ability to control fire magic, which greatly enhances the power of fire magic and can easily challenge opponents of higher levels."
"The other kind is called the Fire Immune Body, as the name suggests, people with this kind of body may not have the same power amplification as the Fire Control Body, but they have strong immunity against fire magic, even..."
"Even what, Teacher Malock?" Natalia Chan asked, her forehead covered in cold sweat, her voice low.
"Even if the opponent's fire magic is not significantly stronger, they can ignore the opponent's fire magic!"
Natalia Chan's body trembled slightly; she squeezed her palm tightly and dared not speak, but her heart was in turmoil. [This person...]
Teacher Malock stroked his beard and closed his eyes as he continued.
"In fact, there have been records in history of two Saint Magus who possessed nearly equal strength - one had the Fire Immune Body while the other had the Fire Control Body. Can you guess what the result was?"
"A draw." Natalia Chan said without hesitation.
"Oh? Why do you say so?"
"It's simple. The power amplification of the Fire Control Body and the damage reduction of the Fire Immune Body, one offense and one defense, in a situation where their strengths are equal, a draw is the only possible outcome."
After hearing Natalia Chan's answer, Teacher Malock smiled satisfactorily.
"I have to say, your answer surprises me. I have asked others this question before, and their unanimous answer was that the side with the Fire Control Body would win. Can you speculate why?"
Natalia Chan nodded and replied honestly.
"Because in their eyes, offense is far stronger than defense. The power of the Fire Control Body's fire magic makes people subconsciously believe that the side with greater magical power will win, and thus overlook the absolute damage reduction of the Fire Immune Body. However, someone with the Fire Immune Body is still a Saint Magus, and their own power is enough to dominate. Even if they only land one hit, the Fire Control Body Magus won't be able to easily walk away unscathed."
"Clap clap clap..."
Applause echoed in the quiet office, and Teacher Malock clapped his hands with satisfaction as he looked at Natalia Chan and spoke.
"You certainly didn't disappoint me."
"I just pondered on it briefly." Natalia Chan smiled bitterly. "Teacher Malock, there's no need to keep it a secret anymore. I believe you have known what I am since the moment I extinguished that noble's flame."
"Oh, at that time I wasn't sure because it was only information recorded in books. Having lived for so long, I've only seen someone with the 'Fire Immune Body' for the first time!"
"I see..." Natalia Chan shook her head with a bitter smile, her shoulders drooping weakly. "I ask you not to mention it to anyone else. I promised my sister not to expose this matter."
"The deepest treasure will eventually be discovered, it's just a matter of time. I think Liya did it to protect you. Once exposed, it could cause a significant disturbance in the city."
