#Chapter104
*A month later*
/"Now, kick me as hard as you can/" Leona orders young Alice.
/"But I don’t want to hurt you!/" she whines.
/"Toughen up kid, you won’t hurt me/" she insists.
Alice squeezes her eyes shut and kicks her. Fire comes off her from her foot, hitting Leona. She quickly opens her eyes, seeing she burned her cloth right at the stomach.
/"I’m sorry Master!/" she says bowing.
/"Why are you sorry?./"
/"I burned your dress./"
/"So? Never be sorry for being strong./"
Alice’s eyes sparkle, looking up to her. /"Alright, that’s it for today/" she says seeing Mckenna approaching her. She is still mad at her, but she won’t show her fury.
/"Maeve wants to see us. Wear all black/" she says and leaves.
Leona moves to her dormitory to change. She feels anxious as today is the first time she will participate in a mission.
