Novel Full Chapter 12 Failed
The young girl’s eyes lit up after seeing the successful spell…
She felt the magical phenomena was released by her chant in a very smooth and swift manner. Furthermore, she didn’t feel any resistance from her enemy.
It means that her speed casting is already comparable to the real students of the Academy. Without a doubt, her constant practice bore fruit and she’s now capable of apprehending criminals.
‘Keke… Master will praise me for capturing a thief.’
As she thought of this, she heard the young man’s indignation…
“I… student… Heinz…”
‘Hmm? Student Heinz?’ The young girl was confused as she repeated inwardly. She then looked into the young man’s eyes filled with agony.
He was trying to stay conscious using his will and he looks miserable. He was desperate to stay awake but it was only a matter of time before he falls asleep and later, die in her hands. She knows how powerful the Dusk Imprisonment was, especially if it successfully wrapped around the target.
According to the Book of Six Basic Dark Spells, the easiest way to fight against it was before the spell hits his body.
“What are you trying to say? Hmmm… Wait! Are you…”
She immediately realized something wrong as she quickly dispelled the imprisonment.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t used to this yet… She failed several times and in the end, she wasn’t able to remove it.
At the very least, she’s still a beginner so the Dusk Imprisonment so shouldn’t last for long…
“Did I assault Mr. Heinz’s student?” She muttered with a hint of nervousness in her voice. Indeed, Mr. Heinz is an expert and wouldn’t leave his laboratory unprotected. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚
She was no longer thinking of eliminating the young man as she looked at him with guilt.
“Well, he didn’t introduce himself so I have to defend myself. Right… That’s self-defense. Besides, he should only sleep for a few minutes. It wouldn’t last long since I’m a beginner and weak practitioner…”
The young girl said as she comforted herself.
Then, a few workers arrived but she sent them away telling them it was just a misunderstanding…
She then slowly walked closer to the young man and confirmed that he was only sleeping.
The Dusk Imprisonment is normally stronger than this. It shouldn’t just put the person asleep but slowly eat away the life force of the victim. If that happens, the young man should be paler and there should be a hint of exhaustion on his face.
She ruminated for a while before she hesitantly adjusted the young man’s position. It was a bit difficult since the young man was heavy but she still managed to make him lean on the wall.
‘He looks clean and smells good… His hair is still wet so I guess he just took a bath… Eh, this coat is from Mr. Heinz… Not good.’ The young girl sighed as she leaned on the desk.
At this moment, she already confirmed that this young man is innocent.
She had to think of a way to clear up the misunderstandings.
After ten minutes, the young girl noticed the man’s eyelids twitch and confirmed that he was about to wake up.
She already thought of how to explain herself so she wasn’t too nervous. She just needs to show him her status and even entice him with knowledge…
‘I can tell that he has talent… He must’ve consumed the Darkness Possession Potion successfully… If that’s the case, he’s probably just lacking knowledge about the Dark Arts… It’s not a big problem.’
She couldn’t help but smile as she felt that she had analyzed the situation really well. The young man in front of her must’ve been recruited while she was away for three days.

“Am I still alive?” 𝑖𝑟𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝘮
Kyle thought after opening his eyes. He was blinded by the light for a few moments but after his eyes adjusted, he realized that he was still inside the laboratory.
Soon, he saw the young girl staring at him while leaning on Mr. Heinz’s desk. She’s quite skinny and looks really frail or malnourish… Aside from that, her long black hair that reaches her waist made him recall a certain ghostly lady.
‘Ugh…’
She seems to be similar to his age but she might be older than he thinks.
Kyle finally recalled the fury in his heart but before he could speak the woman already opened her mouth.
“Ehem… I apologize. It was a misunderstanding since I’ve never seen you before. Furthermore, Mr. Heinz also didn’t give any instructions that someone will be in his laboratory. In any case, the attack I used wasn’t harmful. It just made you asleep and you’re perfectly fine… Well, you were saying that you’re Mr. Heinz’s student, is that right?” The young girl explained and guided the direction of their conversation. Her eyes were trying to show that she was innocent and weak but Kyle wouldn’t believe it.
He was speechless for a moment. He still wanted to scold her but she made it difficult for him. However, Kyle also recalled that he’s helpless against her if she decided to use her spell on him…
Kyle gritted his teeth and slowly nodded.
Seeing his reaction, the young girl awkwardly smiled and replied.
“I’m Denise White. I’m running some errands for Mr. Heinz. I normally clean his laboratory twice or thrice a week. If you’re his student, we will be seeing each other from time to time.”
Kyle finally learned the name of the person who attacked him. He took a deep breath to collect his mind as he decided to carefully choose his words. In any case, this young girl is stronger than him.
Denise knows Dark Arts that he hasn’t learned yet so she might prove to be useful later on. Furthermore, she might think of killing him if he showed hostility. Pushing him inside the Quince Furnace might not be difficult for her.
He suppressed the irritation in his heart as he replied.
“I’m Kyle Marshall. Mr. Heinz just accepted me as his student a while ago… It’s nice to meet you, Denise. Let’s forget about the matter before. As you said, I just fell asleep.”
“Hehe… You’re really kind. I guess you’re very special. Mr. Heinz wouldn’t accept just any disciple after all. Oh, are you trying to find a book?” Denise asked.
Seeing that Kyle wasn’t mad and sounded so polite, she felt a lot better and decided to help him a little. It’s also been a while since she was able to talk to someone similar to her age so she decided to befriend him for now.
‘Great… Mr. Heinz won’t scold me.’
