You Can Never Know How Far a Foodie Will Go for Food

Unlike humans, because the Giant Squid is so large, for Shanna to completely control it, her Curses would have to hit its brain directly.

With a few simple sidesteps, Shanna dodged the Giant Squid's attack, which had slowed it down considerably, and successfully passed through the tentacles' blockade.

Once she reached the area above the Giant Squid's mouth, near its brain, Shanna raised her Wand.

"Oops!"

However, before she could cast the Curses, an unexpected event occurred.

In Shanna's perception, the magic power inside the Giant Squid was rapidly flowing towards its mouth. In just an instant, a large amount of magic power that made her feel terrified gathered in the Giant Squid's mouth.

"Ouch—!"

A torrent of water gushed from the Giant Squid's mouth, striking Shanna directly at its feet.

With a whoosh, Shanna flew backward at an even faster speed than she had come.

"Shanna—!" *2

Phyllis and Lena were terrified when they saw Shanna get hit by the Giant Squid's magic. For a moment, the two girls felt their hearts stop beating.

"Shanna is dead?!"

Of course, this was just the two girls' imagination. Shanna was certainly not dead.

Not only did she not die, she didn't even break a scratch.

A dark shadow flashed by, and Shanna, having broken free from the water's restraints, reappeared in front of Phyllis and Lena.

Shaking her slightly dizzy head, a disheveled Shanna gritted her teeth and glared at the Giant Squid not far away.

She hadn't expected her opponent to be so insidious. They possessed such powerful magic, yet they held back until the very end, leaving her completely unprepared.

She glanced at the ring on her hand, which was now devoid of magic. Two layers of her Shield Charm had just been broken, and even the third layer of her shield was teetering on the verge of collapse.

"Defensive Trinket triggered = insufficient personal ability"

This was an utter disgrace to Shanna, who always held herself to high standards and looked up to her older Gege!

Seeing that the ice shards on her body had almost completely disappeared in just a short while, and that the Giant Squid were now moving more smoothly and less sluggishly, Shanna bit her lip in frustration.

However unwilling she was, she could only admit that she was no match for this Giant Squid, even if she fought it alone.

The main problem is that the underwater environment severely limits her abilities. Not only can she not use powerful Curses like Flame Spell, but the currents also greatly hinder her movement and dodging.

After hesitating for a while, Shanna, unwilling to accept defeat, finally made up her mind.

She opened the small handbag at her waist, fumbled around for a moment, and then carefully took out a yellow Gemstone.

There is a black crack in the center of the Gemstone, making it look like a snake's eye.

This is one of the many magical items Bell gave to Shanna — the Petrification Eye. It was created by Bell after analyzing the Basilisk's eyes and can cast an enhanced version of the Petrification Curse.

Shanna cherished every gift her Gege gave her. Therefore, she would never want to use the Petrification Eye unless she had no other choice.

Unfortunately, she doesn't have much magic left in her body.

Although Shanna seemed to have easily withstood all the Giant Squid's attacks, casting shields and applying Freezing Curse to them both consumed mana.

The hundreds of defenses and attacks in a short period of time were still too much of a burden for Shanna at the moment.

That's why, even before she knew enough about the Giant Squid Giant Squid, she took the risk and recklessly rushed towards it.

After all, just from the difference in size, it's not hard to see that Shanna has no chance of outlasting her opponent.

As the Petrification Eye was activated, a yellow light flashed, and the Giant Squid, which was still moving its tentacles in the distance, trying to completely dispel the cold in its body, immediately froze in place, unable to move.

Looking at the shattered Gemstone in her hand, Shanna was heartbroken.

However, this was not the time to feel sorry for her, and she didn't know how long her Gege's Petrification Curse could control the Giant Squid.

So, without any hesitation, Shanna once again shot out and rushed towards her opponent.

Without any hindrance, she reached the Giant Squid's mouth once again.

A surge of magic flowed into her Wand, and Shanna aimed Wand at the Giant Squid's brain. This time, nothing could stop her.

"Imperio!"

Without any hesitation, Shanna cast the Imperius Curse Imperius Curse, one of the Unforgivable Curses that everyone in the British Wizarding World feared!

Fortunately, William wasn't here at the moment, otherwise, no matter how much his wife tried to stop him, he would have upheld the principle of righteousness and killed... Bell!

She caught her breath slightly. To ensure she could control the Giant Squid, Shanna had just unleashed a large amount of magic power in one go, leaving her already dwindling mana reserves.

"Shanna ~! Are you alright~?"

Seeing her best friend standing motionless in front of that terrifying Giant Squid for a long time, Lena felt very uneasy.

"It's alright~ You two come over here too~ I've got it under control~"

Shanna called out loudly.

She was exhausted tonight and just wanted to finish up the remaining work quickly so she could go back to sleep.

Then, tomorrow morning, she will be able to enjoy the delicious Teppanyaki Squid!

(￣￣)

Looking timidly at the Giant Squid's intimidating size, Phyllis and Lena shuffled closer.

Even though Shanna said the Giant Squid was under control, the two of them were still terrified.

Shanna didn't mind that the two were slow; she had some things to do anyway, and she could finish them while they dawdled.

Shanna pressed her Wand against the Giant Squid and slowly channeled her remaining magic into its body.

With her magical energy fluctuations Gundam 99% similar to her Gege's, she was also able to break the Petrification Curse on Gege.

Watching the whirlpool on the water's surface gradually expand in the distance, Bell put away his Wand.

At the same time, the Magic Mark on the back of his hand dimmed and no longer emitted azure magical light.

"Have fun with Shanna! When we get back, there will be plenty of delicious food!"

Bell patted the "big" Fina beside him and said with a smile.

This little guy has really had a tough time lately. I'll definitely have to treat him to a good meal later.

"Awoo!"

Fina nudged her owner's hand with her big head, indicating that she would take care of everything.

Bell smiled, turned and disappeared into the night.

His younger sister is becoming more and more outstanding, and he, as her Gege, feels a lot of pressure!
