11 Chapter 11: Evaluation Tests (1/2)

[Luther warning] [Blood & Gore] [Guts?]

A medical team was sent down to the cafeteria, they checked on the pink haired girl and detected a slight pulse. They even rushed over to Princess Xia who was unconscious on the other side of the cafeteria. The medical team used healing magic to stop the bleeding of the pink haired girls severed arm, they weren't able to reattach her arm because that type of healing magic is extremely difficult and a long forgotten practice. They scanned the state of her body and concluded that her whole body was permanently paralyzed from neck-down, the cause being an broken spine, she had no way to recover from this.

Ivery watched them carry Xia and the pink haired girl out of the cafeteria.

”Excuse me...” Ivery felt as if someone was tapping her shoulder

Ivery turned around and saw the blue haired girl standing behind her, her big yellow eyes looked as if they were tearing.

”Thank you for helping me...” The blue haired girl bowed down in front of Ivery

”You don't have to thank me” Ivery smiled

”...This is just the first time anyone has ever defended me...people always just watched and laughed..” The blue haired girl started crying

”Don't cry..” Ivery pulled the blue haired girl in for a hug, she knew all too well how this girl felt...all she ever wanted was for someone to hold her and tell her everything was going to get better, she wanted someone to care, just at least one person

But there was no one like that in her life, no one cared, no one held her, no one told her everything was going to get better, not one person. When she was bullied at her school, everyone watched and laughed as she was pushed, hit, had her belongings vandalized, had food thrown at her and so much more suffering she was put through..

Her own father who once adored her, soon hated her for existing. Her adoptive parents treated her like she was trash in the dirt that you stand on, her ”sisters” made her sleep on the floor outside the bedroom, they made her eat the leftovers on their plates and purposefully made messes and had her clean it up.

She was pushed down the stairs and suffered from a concussion, she wasn't taken to the hospital because no one in the house cared, they just left her there on the floor, left to recover by her own will to live. She always wondered why did they adopt her if they didn't even want another child, why did they adopt her if they weren't planning on treating her like a living person? They were horrible people, all four of them were the monsters under her bed at night, the people who caused her misery and depression.

The blue haired girl cried in Ivery's arms and Ivery just held her, she held her the same way she wanted to be held...

”Beatrice...” The girl wiped the tears with her sleeves

”Let's be friends” Ivery smiled at Beatrice

”R-Really?” Beatrice's eyes watered again

”Yes” Ivery rubbed her back

”How about you two go to the lavatory..” Luther said to Ivery

”Alright...” Ivery nodded and took Beatrice outside of the cafeteria

.

.

”Why do people dislike you?” Ivery asked

”I suppose it's because my mother was a commoner but she died from an illness....so since my father is a duke and my mother was a commoner, that makes me an illegitimate child...and everyone mistreats me, even the maids of my household don't hold respect for me...my brother and sister don't even want to look at me, and my father's wife hates me...” Beatrice sulked

”I see...” Ivery now understood the reason, a noble and a commoner having affairs and children wasn't as chaotic and despicable as a royal and a commoner having affairs and children but it was still looked down upon by many

”Just stand by me and I promise no one will hurt you again on my watch” Ivery rubbed her back

”Thank you...” Beatrice wiped her tears from her face

.

.

After Ivery comforted Beatrice, they walked out of the 'bathroom'. Ivery saw that lunch had ended and the students were leaving the cafeteria.

”Where is everyone going?” Ivery asked

”Didn't you hear?” Beatrice looked at Ivery

”No, hear what?” Ivery shook her head

”Today is the magic prowess evaluation, everyone is tested on the strength of their magical prowess and then it's decided whether or not if they can be promoted to go to a higher classroom to learn upper level magic, all of the people here strive to go for [Class S]”

”[Class S]?” Ivery asked

”It's the class only reserved for the MVP's, no student has ever seen what [Class S] looks like, it's also been proven that the MVP's kill the teachers that they think aren't suited to teach them, but since they're all more powerful than all of the teachers here, not many teachers survive after going into [Class S]” Beatrice said

”How much do you know about the MVP's?” Ivery asked as she and Beatrice walked to the evaluation center

”Everyone knows almost everything about the MVPs” Beatrice said

”What do you know?” Ivery was curious

”They have no mercy for the weak, they all kill with no hesitation, they were all trained by Crown Prince Luther Vandell...”

”Wait, Luther trained them?” Ivery was surprised

”It is said that he gives them more power if they are able to please him enough, he taught them how to use the powers he lent them” Beatrice told Ivery

”Luther Vandell and the other MVP's are also the evaluation masters” Beatrice informed

”Evaluation masters?” Ivery didn't understand what she meant...

”They're the ones who are in charge of evaluating the magical prowess of the other students, the students that are the weakest...die, the evaluation isn't really just a test to see how strong you are, it's to determine whether you can live or not” Beatrice started sweating

”And Luther Vandell is the one who kills and decides who is executed on the spot, the rest of the MVP's just note down who is most likely to pass” Beatrice said

”Really? Why do royalty and nobles send their children to this type of academy?” Ivery was in disbelief

”Good question....the royals and nobles all think the same about their children, if their children aren't strong enough then they might as well die, they can always have more children if another fails to meet their expectations, royals and nobles send their children to this academy just to see if they are strong enough to live” Beatrice answered

”So the MVP's decide what classes the students go to, depending on their prowess?” Ivery asked Beatrice

”Yes, today they decide if you get promoted, if you are to stay where you currently are, or if you die..” Beatrice felt nervous

”There is no such thing as demotion? Why are you killed if you fail an evaluation?” Ivery asked

”I don't know...” Beatrice said

”....” Ivery and Beatrice stood in front of the door that led to the evaluation center

”Lets go?” Ivery felt her heart beating fast

”Yeah...” Beatrice took a deep breath

.

.

They opened the two doors and saw an endless bunch of students, the room was extraordinarily huge, there was a track field area, trampoline area, quicksand jump area, a climbing area, a physical test area, and lastly magic test area.

The evaluations were starting and almost all of the students looked nerve-wrecked. Everyone in the evaluation center took seats and watched as the first batch of students prepared themselves, Ivery and Beatrice stood by a wall and watched from afar. The order went from the lowest class to the highest, the lowest class in the academy was [Class E], so [Class E] classes were the first to start the evaluation tests.

A name was suddenly called out.

A girl with short dark blonde hair started the evaluation first at the track field,

”You have 30 seconds to complete 100 laps around the field, start” Juliana held a small clock imbued with magic in her hand, she started the timer, as soon as her thumb hit the button, the time was displayed in giant numbers that hovered above the track field for everyone to see

The blonde girl instantly took off and used most of her magic prowess to increase her foot speed, with 20 seconds gone she only ran 2 laps around the whole track field, 2 laps were pretty impressive to most of the students, it was only impressive because of how wide and long the track field was stretched.

The timer made a loud beep and ended at 0:00. She was only able to complete 3 laps around the whole track field in 30 seconds.

Juliana wrote the time completed in her chart.

Everyone looked at the MVP's, they certainly did not look impressed. The blonde haired girl tried to catch her breath and wiped the sweat off of her forehead. The girl was sent back to her group and had to await her results, she either gets a promotion, she is made to stay in the class that she's in, or....death.

The next person in her class group was next for evaluation, another name was called, a boy with dark green hair stepped out from his group and stood on the track, he stretched before getting ready to run.

Juliana hit the button on her clock and the timer was started at 0:30. The boy ran off and used magic to increase his running speed. With 25 seconds down, he only ran a single lap, just as he was about to pass the line to make 2 full laps the timer went off and was at 0:00.

Juliana didn't even write the time he completed in her chart, she looked at Luther and smirked, none of the MVP's looked pleased.

In an instant the boy who was desperately catching his breath had his head separated from his neck, his body dropped to the ground and blood poured out from his gushing neck.

”This is what happens if you don't do well on even one evaluation, displease the MVP's in the slightest...and you die...” Beatrice felt her palms get sweaty

”Do well then Beatrice...” Ivery hoped Beatrice was strong enough to survive the evaluations

.....

As [E] class students were called up for track field evaluations, no one from [Class E] got past 2 laps. About 15 students who made 1 lap and less than 1 lap were killed on the spot. 50 students remained in [Class E], they were to prepare for the next evaluation.

[D] class track field evaluations were next, students from [Class D] got up from their seats and lined up at the tracks. Names were called one by one for the track evaluation and a total of 20 students were killed in [Class D] and 80 remained, they were to prepare for the next evaluation.

[Class C] track field evaluation were next, Ivery and Beatrice were nervous, they were both in [C] classes. All [Class C] students lined up at the track field, Ivery and Beatrice both lined up at the tracks. Their hearts were racing, they thought their hearts were going to beat out of their chests.

A girl with yellow hair stepped out in front after her name was called, she prepared herself and readied herself to run. Just as Juliana hit the button, the timer beeped and started, she ran and put most of her magic in her feet and increased her speed as fast as she could. She wished she didn't play with her magic earlier...she used too much of it when she was showing off to her friends...

She felt her magic flow decreasing and her speed decelerated drastically, the timer went off and she didn't even get past 1 lap. When she realized she failed the evaluation...she dropped to the ground and cried...she didn't want to die...

”No!” Two girls ran out from class [B] they tried to run up to their friend who was certainly going to die for failing...

She looked at her best friends who were running to her, knowing her current fate....in an instant all three of their heads spiraled away from their bodies...

”Oh my god..” Beatrice covered her mouth as she saw all three of the girls drop dead on the track

”Never step foot in an evaluation if you're not being evaluated, no matter who is going to die, no matter how close you are to them, if they fail...they die, it's their fault for not being strong enough, our leader won't hesitate to end your lives, no matter who you are” Sariell Hesteria announced to everyone

The next students were called out for evaluation and so far 10 students were brutally killed by Luther Vandell, the other remaining students were to prepare for the next evaluation, soon enough Beatrice was called out...

Beatrice walked out and stood in front of the track, she took a deep breath and readied herself for running. The timer started and Beatrice took off, she put magical energy in her feet and increased her running speed, with 20 seconds down, Beatrice was able to complete 20 laps. When the timer completed and stopped at 0:00. Beatrice completed 23 laps, more than anyone had completed so far. Her time was noted down and she was allowed to prepare for the next evaluation.

Lastly Ivery was called out...Ivery stepped out and stood in front of the track field. Ivery took a deep breath and readied herself to run. Luther who was nonchalantly watching the evaluations and nonchalantly killing whoever failed the evaluation, was intently watching Ivery, even as she breathed, he closely watched with the utmost interest.

The timer started and Ivery was gone in a flash, dust was left in her trails, each lap that she completed left a windstorm, everyone's hair was flying back, people fell back in their chairs from the intense wind she created just by running, people that were standing up, were forcefully pushed back by the wind. Just with 10 seconds down, she completed 100 laps. Everyone could barely watch clearly, everyone but Luther, he was unfazed by the strong winds, even the other four MVP's had trouble withstanding the impactful wind.

Luther watched Ivery with astonishment, even though the other MVP's were trying to withstand the wind, they were all dramatically impressed with Ivery.

The timer beeped and stopped at 0:00, Ivery had completed a full 300 laps around the track field. Even though the timer had stopped, Ivery still kept running. People thought she was just showing off now, but truthfully..she just couldn't stop.

Ivery put too much magic in her feet and now she couldn't stop running. After awhile, Luther realized something was wrong when Ivery wouldn't stop running. He hastily but still elegantly and gracefully walked over to the track field. His body disappeared, and instantly appeared in front of Ivery, she saw him appear in front of her and tried her best to stop herself from running into him. His arms opened wide as if he was trying to catch her and it all seemed like it happened in an instant, Ivery crashed into Luther and they both slid across a small part of the track field, he held Ivery tightly in his arms, trying to prevent her from getting hurt.

”Are you okay?” Luther asked Ivery

”Y-Yeah” Ivery coughed as she could barely breathe

”Never put too much of your magic in your hands or feet, as infinite attribute holders we have no limit to power, you'll end up getting hurt if you do this again” Luther stroked her hair

”I-I didn't mean to...” Ivery tried to regulate her breathing and heartbeat

”Go get ready for the next evaluation” Luther helped her stand up

Before he walked away he kissed her forehead.

.

.

No one from any class above [Class C] was able to pass Ivery's new record of 300 laps, [Class A] students were only able to reach at least 130 laps. [Class B] students only completed at least 100 laps.

The next evaluation was the 'trampoline' area. Students had to jump at least 90 feet high up, anything less than 30 was a fail. A total of 20 students were killed for jumping less than 20 feet from [Class E]. [Class D] students all jumped at least 30 feet up high after putting magic into their legs. [Class C] students all jumped about 45 feet up high.

Beatrice jumped up about 65-70 feet up.

As for Ivery who was last to go, she remembered what Luther had said and tried to decrease the amount of magical energy she put in her legs than before.

”Ivery, don't use too much magic” Ivery heard Luther's voice come out of her communication bracelet

”I'll try” Ivery said into the communication bracelet on her wrist

Ivery jumped up and unfortunately, even though she didn't use that much magical energy she still jumped up way too high, her body launched up about 200 feet up in the air. Ivery began to fall back down to the ground, she sighed as she continued to fall back down, Luther facepalmed himself before jumping on the trampoline and jumping up high enough to catch Ivery.

”I thought I said not to use too much magic” Luther held Ivery in his arms as he hovered in the air

”I did! I decreased the amount of magical energy in my legs...” Ivery crossed her arms

”I told you there is no limit to how much power we can use, our magical energy flow can never be exhausted, it seems I'll have to teach you how to make use of your abilities soon...” Luther sighed

”I'm sorry...could you forgive me?” Ivery hooked her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek

”Only if it's you...” Luther blushed and lightly kissed her lips

.

.

The next evaluation was the climbing area, students had to climb up to the top of the 400 feet tall building that was somehow miraculously placed in the evaluation center, in under 30 seconds. Anything less than 60 feet was a fail.

[Class E] Students made it up to exactly 60 feet, all but 3 people, those 3 only made it up to 40 feet before the timer went off, their bodies instantaneously exploded and blood spilled everywhere around the climbing area, the blood dripped down 40 feet and below.

[Class D] students made it up to 70 feet and only 2 people weren't able to pass 30 feet, the 2 people who failed the evaluation, they screamed as they had their bodies twisted, it was as if someone were wringing out a wet rag to drain the water out, in this case their bodies were twisted around and blood oozed out of their bodies, bones crushed, their organs were twisted and squashed, their bodies fell down to the ground and their contorted bodies were left at the bottom of the climbing area.

”I love it when he kills like this..” Stewell blushed at Luther's masterpiece

”I know..” Piere agreed
