Chapter 143: I’m Strong!
The written exam was finished already. I’m confident with my grade. It will soon be the magical exam. I heard from Ms. Wendy that it is optional so I don’t think I will participate.
It was made optional because it will be bad for the student who is good academically, but bad in practice to participate. They might lose their confidence. Just being good academically was enough for the student to study to the higher education. Like how I want to enter medical school.
The past few days, I went around the city to look for any members of the cult and other suspicious people. Then I give report of what I found to either Ms. Wendy, or the other agents.
Those whom I have told the agents were closely watched of their actions and with whom they are interact with. In case there are more members without any of the HGB device in their mouth. Seriously, why would anyone called it Head Goes Boom? And even after being named as such, these people are still putting that thing inside their mouth.
I tried to imagine what happened. Someone from the cult is giving a new recruit the HGB device.
“Hey! I want you to have this.”
“What’s that?”
.....
“It’s called Head Goes Boom! Put it on the back of your teeth and you just need to pour your magic into this item to make your head goes boom.”
“Oh, wow! I want it!”
Yeah, right. Such conversation wouldn’t happen. Unless they are really stupid.
Well, those are things I did in these past few days after returning to Cassau. Finding people with HGB, reporting to the agents, taking exam, and imagining something that would never happen.
And today is the day for the practical exam. I choose to watch from the sideline with Shirley who want to watch. She goes to school with us but never entered the class during the exam. But once the exam is over, she will start to attend class like other students despite already graduate. Ms. Wendy already gave her special permission for it so she is allowed to stay in class even though she’s not a student. That’s called abusing your power, Ms. Wendy.
Then for Sophie, Candy, and Lina who want to come here as well, they said that they will arrive tomorrow. That’s the message I received from Sonia. I also asked Sonia to guide them to the hotel.
As for Hill, despite him and his people is needed here, sometime I wish that they got lost. But we needed more people so he is important for our plan.
Hill getting lost is impossible. Why? Because he’s already here behind me!
I turned around quickly and faced the man who’s all smile and greeting me.
“Why are you here?” That’s the first thing that comes out of my mouth after a while not meeting him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Oh, Roy! Don’t you miss me? I read your... letter.” Hill said.
“Why is there a pause before the word letter? It’s just a letter, alright! Back to the main question. Why are you here?” I asked the same question again.
“Because I heard that the magical exam is open for public to watch. And then I saw you here.” He replied casually.
“What I mean is, why are you behind me? Anyone can stay behind me but you!” I shouted.
“Well, we can take our time.” Hill said as he stand beside me.
“We won’t have any time for anything. Shirley, this is Hill you should have heard a lot of lies from Victoria about him.” I introduced Shirley to Hill while slapping Hill’s hand that’s grabbing my shoulder.
“From what I see, it might be the truth. Nice to meet you, Hill. I’m Shirley. Albert’s brother.” Shirley introduced herself to Hill.
“So you’re the pr- his sister! Nice to meet you. And please let me hear about what you heard from Ms. Victoria. She’s Roy’s summon, right? I believe we can get along really well.” Hill shook his hand with the princess.
If this is a formal meeting, he could be punished for being too friendly. Especially when Hill is the captain of the guard of Mellian. If it’s a commoner, saying that they lack manner is normal. But Hill’s position mean he must know the manner when meeting with royalties.
Well, considering how I interact with Albert, it will be me who ended up becoming Albert’s friend, it would be me who get sentenced the most. I even kidnapped his daughter and sister... and butler.
By the way, Victoria’s not in control of the Black Slime at the moment. It’s rare seeing Blobby again.
We chatted while watching the exam. It was still other students who shows their talent. Most of them are just beginner level mage. Only rich students have reached intermediate level. Well, even though they have reached intermediate level, from what I see, they are still inexperienced in using magic. They must be spoiled kids who never left their house and only practiced using inanimate target.
There are also some intermediate level mages who seems capable, but if they are compared with either Kayla or Angela, they would lose.
Soon it’s finally Kayla and Angela’s turn. For the exam, the students need to attack a target designed to receive attack and calculate the power behind the attack.
The target is some kind of pillar with the height of two meters and its diameter is half mater. It was designed to absorb any attack. It will calculate any attack it received. The range of attack power it received ranging from 0-10000. The ten thousand mark is about the average power of advanced level mage.
For average mages, beginner level should reach attack power of about 2000 as the average. The average intermediate level mage should reach attack power of around 7500. And 10000 is for advanced level mage.
Of course it’s also depend on the mages. A powerful beginner level mage can even reach 3000 attack power. And powerful intermediate mage can reach attack power of 9000. And even weak advanced level mage, can barely reached 5000.
As for Kayla and Angela, we’ll see how strong they are.
It’s Kayla’s turn first. For healing element or light element, there’s another test for them. But I told both of them to keep their real power as secret because I see some cult members in the audience.
Both Kayla and Angela will use their earth element for the exam.
Kayla used Earth Spike and make a giant earth spike protruding from earth. The spike attacked the target. Soon on the pillar, there’s a number.
2578
That’s the strength of Kayla’s earth magic. Of course she hasn’t used her full strength yet, but that’s already the strongest among the beginner level mages who takes the exam.
There are cheers from the audience seeing the numbers. Considering that beginner level earth magic aren’t strong because of their common sense, everyone has high hopes for her. Well, some of them are cheering because of her beauty. But she’s mine and I won’t let her go!
Next is Angela. She used Wind Slash to attack the target. And the numbers that appear surprised everyone.
3924
That’s already within the reach of Intermediate level magic even though she only used basic wind magic!
I thought I told them to not gain attention, but it seem it was impossible for them to do that. Even their appearances alone will gain everyone’s attention.
Then it will be my job to protect them.
“3924! What a number for a beginner level mage!” The examiner, Ms. Wendy, commented about Angela’s strength.
“That’s not all. Even the previous student is surprisingly strong. Seems like the students we have this year are exceptional.” Another teacher also make a comment.
“Yeah, but there’s also another unique student who didn’t even try to take this exam. Can I call him so we can see how exceptional he is?”
Hmm? It was Mr. Wig who said that. So there’s another exceptional student here other than those two, huh? I’m curious.
“Sure. I’m curious about the student who doesn’t want to take practical exam as well. If he’s exceptional, why would he decide to not take part in the practical exam?” The previous teacher asked Mr. Wig. I should try harder to remember names.
“You’ll see. Alright, since student Angela is the last student to take part in the exam, then if student Roy is here, please come forward and test your strength!”
Whoa! Surprisingly it was me who was called. He should have known that I’m weak and only has a black slime as a summon, and a useless air element. That’s why he picked on me so all the other students who received small numbers on the exam will gain their confidences.
Or maybe because he realized back then that I stole his wig? Maybe that too. ????????????re???????? ????????????
Because I was called, I walked forward to the testing area. Then I confidently summon Blobby and attacked the target.
“Blobby Throw!”
My attack is... just throwing my slime to the target. It shocked everyone in the audience and those who knows me are holding back their laughter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon the number appear and it says...
8
“Uoooh! That’s awesome! I’m strong!”
Everyone laughed at my antics. Although Mr. Wig called Roy, I’m taking part as Clarence the clown. To make everyone enjoy the show. And I did it well.
“Eight? Eight?! Even the weakest to take part was in his 500s and you only got an eight? You’re really exceptional! Hahaha!” Mr. Wig laughed loudly.
I guess he called me because he wants to make fun of me. Well, that’s fine.
“It’s good that he confidently take part. It shows how much we shouldn’t treat our students badly. Even those who had terrible strength in the practical exam, might be great in the written exam. Maybe they could be a magic researchers.” Ms. Wendy kindly supported me.
“Or a clown! Ahaha!” That’s really not a good manner for a teacher.
If entertainment is what you want, then I will kindly give it to you.
“Well, this is all for the practical exam today...”
I ignored the closing speech and instead return back to Shirley’s location where Kayla and Angela already waited for me. Then I compress air to shoot the target from this far. I took a button from the shirt of another audience, then shot it to the target.
A loud sound suddenly heard from the target. Everyone’s attention now is at the target again despite seeing no one nearby. Then a number appear at the target pillar.
9124
My shameless act doesn’t end there.
“Who is it? Who did that? Can’t you please don’t do that? You’re scaring me!”
I pretend that it was not me and looked for someone who might have done it.
Of course the three girls around me are laughing while everyone is busy looking for the perpetrator.
Oh wait! Did I just make the cult wary about my existence? I shouldn’t have done that? How stupid of me.
After we return to the hotel, Ms. Wendy is asking me if I’m the one who did it. Then she scolds me for hours.
I’m sorry, okay?
