Chapter 12: Shocked out of their wits (2/2)

”Pretty please?” John begged with a pitiful look as he looked at the beautiful instructor.

”It's compulsory.”

Nina's duty forced her to assess all the examinees in the same way so that she would be able to register the necessary information of the young magicians in the database of the association.

”Ah, whatever.” John understood that the instructor wouldn't let him scot away from here if he doesn't get assessed by the ability affinity device, so he placed his hand on the crystal ball with a face of deep regret.

A few moments later, once the ball remained as dark as ever, instructor Nina and the examinees understood why John was hesitant about having his affinity to abilities assessed.

”Haha! He has no affinity to the supernatural!”

”He's a Hollow. Another loser among magicians.”

Hollow is a term used for magicians that can't contain supernatural cells in their bodies which results in them never being able to use supernatural abilities in their entire life.

Nina didn't ask him any questions or offered him evolution material to awaken as she knew full that a Hollow can never awaken.

”I'm such a loser,” John muttered under his breath as he walked back to his seat, knowing full well that his future in the academy wouldn't be pleasant as his embarrassing secret was out.

Hollow Magicians were general outcasts of the magician society.

Just as he sat down on his seat under the taunting stares of the examinees, a young man with dark brown hair stood up from his seat and walked to the crystal table with a relaxed and carefree expression.

”Elliot Vincent, here to take the entrance examination.” He announced, standing next to his childhood friend.

Just as he said these words, a few examinees began making fun of him, uttering whatever they could to ridicule and taunt him.

”You're just going to waste our time by participating in the assessment.”

”We already know you're the weakest magician that can only contain two units of magic energy in his body.”

”Move out of there!”

Elliot turned around to stare at them with a look that said why am I stuck with monkeys wherever I go?

”Who the hell do you guys think you are? The instructor hasn't said a word about me being unqualified to take the test, yet you're already barking like dogs. You're not only rude to me but also our instructor. A person that can't respect his teacher isn't someone I will ever respect.”

While saying those words, Elliot pointed the middle finger of his left hand at the examinees and continued, ”So, take this middle finger up your asses and shut up.”

What guts!

Did he eat a tiger to gain this courage?!”

<Completed: 25/50>

His words startled a lot of them, especially the ones who were making fun of him.

”You!” Cain stood up from his seat, ready to duke it out with the weakest magician, or so that's what he thought, totally unaware that he was no longer the weakest.

”Silence!” Nina Olsen exclaimed, a mighty energy pressure sweeping across the area.

Cain sat down on his seat, a disgruntled expression on his face.

He couldn't harm Elliot in front of the instructor.

So, he could only endure this embarrassment.

”Continue.” Instructor Nina said, motioning Elliot to place his hand on the crystal ball.

An inky, black crystal ball was on the table. It was similar in size to a football and had an ancient feel to it.

Following the interaction of the instructor, Elliot placed his palm on top of the crystal ball.

A few seconds later, the crystal ball released a mesmerizing blue glow, causing everyone to look at it.

The glow reflecting in their eyes intensified.

Then, all of a sudden, twenty blue dots appeared inside the crystal ball.

”What?!”

”How is that possible?!!!”

Not just the examinees, but even Theo Rose and Instructor Nina Olsen had their eyes opened wide like saucers, and they turned to look at Elliot with an expression of bewilderment.
