Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

Chapter 10: The First Meeting (2 in 1)

Going back some time ago

While Liu Yang and Liu Xia were getting ready and preparing dinner. Elsewhere in the city was a large, high-level private apartment complex, decorated with gardens, playgrounds, and more. This showed that to live there, the person was not an ordinary person.

The apartment complex had a total of twenty buildings occupying a large area, the place looked like a small town within the place, so residents did not have to leave the complex to buy things at night, some markets and stores were created for this kind of need.

In one of the buildings lived a young lady, she moved into the apartment with her maid after successfully passing the entrance exam for the East School.

Inside the apartment we could see two young women sitting on the sofa, one was wearing casual clothes while the other was wearing a maid uniform, they were beautiful and elegant. They were Xiao Mei and her maid.

"Young Miss, how was your first day of school?" The maid asked since Xiao Mei didn't like to leave her maid standing when they were alone, Xiao Mei let the maid sit with her.

"It was good and bad at the same time. I managed to find some old friends, who became my juniors at school, but because of some people, the mood got pretty bad. "Xiao Mei sighed at this. If it wasn't for people like Shen Yu, the first day of school would have been great.

"Young Miss, did those two pass the entrance exam?" The maid was referring to Liu Yang and Liu Xia, she knew both because of the stories that Xiao Mei told.

"Yes, they both got in, but there is something wrong with Liu Yang's approval, I looked at his grades, and he didn't get the minimum grade to pass the test. His examiner approved him irregularly. I think his examiner was that weird school teacher. "Xiao Mei had been surprised when she saw Liu Yang's result, she didn't understand why he got such a low grade. What made Xiao Mei even more surprising was the fact that Liu Yang had passed even though he has not reached the minimum grade required by the school. As she thought about it, a teacher's name popped into her mind.

"Young Miss, it seems your friend has been approved by that strange teacher, who teaches at the East School." The maid had studied at the East School before, now, she was at the magic university.

"Yes, but I don't know if it's true or not, tomorrow I'll ask him" Xiao Mei was curious about this, if Liu Yang was approved by such a teacher, there would be no problems, but if it didn't, he would have some problems at school.

"Young Miss, you seem to think a lot about this young man named Liu Yang" The maid spoke in a teasing tone.

"Song Jia, you are teasing me again ..." Xiao Mei was quite embarrassed when she heard her maid's words, the scenes of things that happened in the meditation room began to pop into her mind. Her face turned pink because of it.

"Hehe Looks like the young lady has someone on her mind" Song Jia smiled at the sight of this scene, it was rare for her to see Xiao Mei act that way.

"Song Jia, if you keep teasing me, I won't talk to you anymore." Xiao Mei was acting like a spoiled girl because of shame.

"Hehe" Song Jia just laughed at this scene, she was enjoying seeing this scene.

"I'm going to take a shower, Song Jia, you can prepare dinner" Xiao Mei ran from the room and went to the bathroom, she was too embarrassed to continue talking with Song Jia. Looking at this scene, Song Jia could only smile helplessly, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Inside the bathroom, Xiao Mei was in front of the mirror looking at her body, she was comparing herself to Liu Xia.

(I wouldn't be considered a very beautiful girl, but I wouldn't be considered average either. But when I'm around Liu Xia, I feel so inferior to her When my clothes were torn I felt Liu Yang's warm gaze looking at me Even though he was in front of Liu Xia, his fiance, he couldn't contain himself, at least that shows that I have some charm to conquer him) Xiao Mei was lost in her thoughts about Liu Yang and Liu Xia.

A few years ago

The bright moon was already in the sky and the stars were seen as bright spots in the dead of night.

Tonight the streets were noisy because of a small festival that was happening on the other side of the city, because of that, many traffic jams were happening.

In one of the cars parked on the street, it was big and long, but not enough to be a limousine. Inside the car was a little girl who was wearing expensive clothes, she looked to be about 11 - 12 years old, beside her were men in suits and sunglasses, each of them emanating a solemn aura, they were the little girl's bodyguards.

"Uncle Li, when are we coming home?" The little girl asked.

"Little miss, we will take a while, as the spring festival is taking place in town, and all the streets are a traffic jam." The man named Uncle Li was a middle-aged man who was in front of the little girl, he was the leader of the security guards and was in charge of taking care of the little girl.

"Leader looks like we have problems." One of the security guards spoke solemnly.

"What happened?" Uncle Li understood that something was wrong.

"Looks like someone was targeting the little miss's car. I don't know how many there are, but I know there are at least five watching over our car. "One of the security guards spoke, he had psychic powers and could detect bad intentions toward the car.

"Everyone, prepare for combat. Little miss, activate your protective charms as a precaution. "Uncle Li spoke solemnly, he took a device that looked like a sword hilt from his pocket and held it tight, a light shone and a blade came out of the handle. The blade was shiny and clean, like a metal mirror.

Zzzzzzzzz

A loud sound is heard, the roof of the car was cut by a wind blade before being removed. The pedestrians around started running because of this, they were just ordinary people and not mages. This kind of situation was solved by police mages.

"Watch out !!!!!" Uncle Li shouted, the other security guards stood up and surrounded the little girl, each of them had already taken off their weapons, their faces were solemn. Each of them knew that a difficult battle will take place.

Shuoooo Shuoooo Shuoooo Shuoooo ...

Dozens of iron chains popped out of the car doors and suddenly arrested the security guards.

"Shit Metal element, subelement of the earth element. Activate your powers quickly "Uncle Li saw that the situation was not good, the chains were reinforced with magic and it was difficult to break.

But before they could escape the currents, something amazing happened. A tentacle of water grabbed the little girl's body and pulled her from the car.

"Uncle Li !!!!!!" The little girl started screaming, her protective charms only protect her from attacks, but as the tentacle didn't attack, it just grabbed her. The charms did not affect. The little girl was dragged away.

"Little miss !!!! Shit!!!! Ahhhh !!!!!!!! "Uncle Li was furious when he saw the little girl being kidnapped by an unknown group. He used all his power to break the chains and chase the little girl, some of the security guards also escaping who started following Uncle Li.

"Leader, should we call the boss and ask for reinforcements?" One of the security guards asked.

"Call quickly, the group that kidnapped the little miss knew she would be in the car, it looks like they had been planning this for a while." Uncle Li understood what was going on, this was much more than just coincidence.

The little girl's daily routine was the same as usual, but today was different because it was having the Spring Festival and because of that, the streets were traffic jams. That was the only difference that happened.

"Leader, the boss will send reinforcements, for now, we should look for the little miss"

"Yes let's go"

Uncle Li and five other security guards started running toward where the little girl was taken.

"Let me go !!!!" The little girl was screaming while being carried by a person dressed in black clothes and a black mask, he was one of the kidnappers.

"Shut up!!! If you don't want to get hurt !!! "The kidnapper was already annoyed by the little girl's screams.

He was currently in an alley carrying the little girl, she kept stirring and screaming. His companions would meet him later at the appointed location, they had to dodge the security guards and allow him to escape.

"Shit !!!!" The kidnapper was impatient, he followed the plan and started running towards the hideout.

Running through the dark alleys, the kidnapper began to get nervous as his companions were not answering his calls.

"Shit !!!!" After running through several dark alleys, the kidnapper appeared in a small park with lots of green trees, benches, and couples strolling.

When the couples saw the kidnapper holding a little girl, they started screaming and asking for help.

"Help!!!! A little girl is being kidnapped !!!!! "

Many shouts were heard, but no one dared to pursue the kidnapper. After some time running, the kidnapper appeared in a small lake, he saw that two children were sitting and looking at the fireworks that began to explode in the sky.

Booom !!! Booom !!! Booom !!! Booom !!!

"Watch out!!!!! Runaway !!!! He's an evil man !!! "The little girl in the kidnapper's arms shouted, she was afraid he would hurt the two kids, a boy and a girl, they looked to be between 10-11 years old.

The two children looked at this scene with strange looks. They never imagined that they would find a kidnapper while enjoying the fireworks.

"What are we going to do?" The boy asked the girl next to him.

"Let's help her, she seems to be scared"

"Yes"

"But we have to be careful, he's someone who is at primary mage level 5" The two children agreed to help the little girl.

One of the children waved her hand and a small shadow appeared under the kidnapper's feet, he just felt something pulling his body down. That was the magic of darkness, the Shadow Sphere.

"Damn kids !!! Fireball !!! "The kidnapper threw the little girl to the ground and tried to attack the two children because they were disturbing him. He began to cast his fire magic.

"Wind Blade" The boy also cast his magic, but the wind blade was the size of a knife and thin as a needle.

"Haha !!!! Children, you are too weak to fight me. "The kidnapper started to laugh when he saw the wind blade created by the boy.

"Watch out !!!!" The little girl was scared when she saw the two children attack the kidnapper, she closed her eyes and screamed because she didn't want to see this scene.

But a surprising thing happened when the little wind blade hit the kidnapper's body, a deep cut.

"Ahhhh !!!!!" He began to scream from the pain he was feeling, the harmless-looking wind blade slashing his waistcoat and puncturing his chest, breaking some ribs and injuring some organs. Luckily, he wasn't dead, because the boy had no intention of doing this, nor did he want to do that.

The other child who was using the magic of darkness disturbed the kidnapper and prevented him from casting his magic, which gave time for the wind blade to cut through his body.

The little girl opened her eyes when she saw the kidnapper screaming in pain and rolling on the floor, she was surprised to see this scene. She never imagined that two children could defeat her kidnapper.

"Run !!" The boy shouted, he feared the kidnapper would hurt the little girl. Without thinking twice, she started running toward the two children.

"Damn children, I kill you !!!!!! Fireball !!! "The kidnapper was very annoyed to be hurt by the two children, he conjured a large fireball and fired at the children.

But before the fireball could hit them, something amazing happened, an invisible barrier blocked the fireball and caused it to explode in front of the kidnapper.

"Ahhhh !!!!!!" The kidnapper felt great pain when the fireball exploded in front of him, his body was burned by the explosion.

"Thanks for the help." The boy thanked the little girl. He saw that she used some kind of amulet to create the barrier.

"I appreciate your help, if it weren't for you, I would have been kidnapped." The little girl looked at the two children, she saw that they looked a little younger than her, but they were already so powerful.

"May I know your name?" The little girl asked shyly.

"My name is Liu Yang, and her name is Liu Xia." The boy introduced.

"It's nice to meet you guys ... My name is Xiao Mei ..." The little girl said shyly, she was happy to know the boy's name.

"Liu Yang, let's go, it's not good for us to stay here," Liu Xia, the girl next to Liu Yang said, she had a little more intelligence than usual, she realized that Xiao Mei was a member of a family rich from the clothes she was wearing.

"Yes, until someday," Liu Yang and Liu Xia said goodbye and left the lake, they were holding hands. Xiao Mei was feeling a little loss when she saw this scene, for some reason she felt something strange in her heart when she saw Liu Yang holding hands with Liu Xia.

Some minutes later

"Young miss, I'm glad you're fine. Did something happen at the scene? "Uncle Li and the security guards appeared then, they were panting after running for so long. Uncle Li saw that the kidnapper was lying on the floor with a weak breath and hurt.

"Uncle Li, one person helped me, he saw that I was being kidnapped and helped me." Xiao Mei lied about being helped by two children.

"Young miss, do you know who is the person who helped you?"

"No, I've never seen him before, but he was very strong"

"Okay, let's talk about this later. Your parents are very worried about you. You, take the body and interrogate that person. "Uncle Li was relieved by Xiao Mei's safety, but he didn't forget to deal with the kidnapper.

From that night on, Xiao Mei always remembered that day, she would never forget in her entire life. The day she met Liu Yang and Liu Xia, the duo who saved her from a kidnapping.

The group of kidnappers was discovered and killed by the Xiao family, all of which were located after the kidnapper was interrogated with truth serum. But the person who helped Xiao Mei was never found, as she never talked about it to anyone.

But all was not lost, after the holidays, the next year, Xiao Mei met the people she never imagined she would meet them again, Liu Yang and Liu Xia, the two were the new students at her school, the two were a year younger than she.
