81 Chapter 80 (2/2)
Several soldiers were entering and leaving the building, after crossing the gate, Leon and the soldier walked toward one of the receptionists of the building.
”His name is Leonard, and he can be tested,” The soldier said. ”Is there someone available right now?”
”Yes, I'm going to call one of the examiners.” The receptionist said.
”Wait here.” The soldier said to Leon and then left the building.
By the look of things, it didn't look like Leon was in trouble. Surprisingly, the receptionist used a telephone to call the examiner. It was the first time he had seen one after his return, Leon didn't have even seen one in Makoto's house either.
While Leon was waiting, he checked the situation in New York. As expected, ninety-nine percent of the buildings disappeared. At least the survivors managed to get rid of the rubble and built new buildings, the shape was relatively uniform and simple, but it was the best that a few mages could do using magic alone.
Since humans didn't have time to worry about the appearance of their new buildings, the interior of that building was also quite rough. Everything was simple and basically made of earth, so it didn't provide much comfort.
The man who would examine Leon was a thin, black-headed man who wore thick glasses. Leon imagined that a muscular man like a military would examine him, but considering his magic would be examined, he thought a little too much.
”Are you the one who is going to be tested?” The thin man asked. ”Come with me.”
Leon arrived on a floor which had only four rooms, but those rooms were quite large. Surprisingly, the walls were made of glass, and in each of those rooms, some type of weather was being emulated. One room had a lot of sand, other had a lot of water, the third one was empty, but the wind was strong, the last one looked like a sauna without the steam.
”What kind of magic can you use?” The thin man asked.
”Earth Manipulation,” Leon answered.
”Then, go to the first room and show me what you can do.” The thin man said.
Leon entered the room while thinking of what he should do. It looked like he was in a job interview. Considering that many buildings were made of earth magic, it looked like according to the results of his test, he could end up building houses, or he could end up becoming a soldier. The chances of him meeting William while building house was small, so in the end… he decided to show off. Creating a bullet made of sand, he broke the bulletproof glass.
