Alexander's punch was sudden and aimed directly at Isolde.
Isolde didn't even scream; she just closed her eyes.
"Bang!"
A powerful force of elements burst from Alexander's fist, heading straight for Isolde.
Alexander's gaze was intense, focused intently on Isolde.
"Whoosh!"
The elemental force hit Isolde squarely.
However, Isolde did not scream in agony, nor was she blown away; instead, she stood trembling in place.
The burst of elemental force simply vanished. Or rather, it was absorbed into Isolde's body.
"Mr. Alexander..." Isolde opened her eyes, her dark pupils brimming with tears.
She didn't understand why Alexander had struck her; she only felt fear and a sense of abandonment by the whole world.
Her grandfather scolded her, her brother left her alone here, and now even Alexander had struck her...
What had she done wrong?
