Every action scene is so unsatisfying

Why the MC gotta be so powerful and act like she knows everything that's going on, then completely fail some way or another and need to be rescued multiple times. Sometimes its not even the character's fault more like deus ex machina from the author.

Exhibit A: chapter 3 when she's trying to save the other girl from drowning she's so overconfident that she neglects to take into account how weak she is and nearly drowns but is rescued by some guy

Exhibit B: she gets lost in the alleyway, and she's about to enact revenge when her past fiance swoops in and rescues her. Also ew why is he blushing at her she a CHILD. (Not her fault this time)

Exhibit C: at the ball she's about to whoop some ass when suddenly two guys jump in front of her to protect her and she's frozen in shock and anger and ends up doing nothing. Bad guy escapes and she shivers in anger.

Exhibit D: when attacked she says 'now that you know who I am there's no way u can win against me' then immediately gets pulled into the mirror realm.

Exhibit E: latest chapter when she gets kidnapped. Bro with all that experience you had in ur past life u didn't think the shady alleyway would do something shady and hit you from the back?! Also her overconfidence once again puts her in a situation where she's stuck in a cage that nullifies her magic.

Why... I don't mind if this happens once or even twice, but why is the author using this as a plot point. It's so unsatisfying. I like everything abt the MCs middle schooler syndrome except for this part. I also realise this is so stupid to complain about. The last chapter really ignited something in me DAMN.
