20 Chapter 20: Hero’s Chronicle, Ferlin’s Mage Academy Exams Part Two (1/2)

”Next exam will be an Arena battle which will decide the testes ranking and who will stay or leave. You will receive a slip with the letter A, B, C, or D. They will decide which group you will battle in only the top 50 from each group will be moved to the next level. You have a time limit of 30 minutes, and if you fall off the map, you will be disqualified, even if you are in the top 50.” The instructor said as the slips of paper appeared in front of the students. Glass took her slip of paper that they reflected the letter B. Rain and Randall both showed their slips of paper to Glass, both were B too. ”The use of weapons is also allowed” The Instructor added as Glass shrugged her shoulders and relaxed back into her seat.

After finding their way back from the portal Glass, Rain, and Henry waited for the next and last exam that will decide their ranks within the school. Since there is now 200 examinees.

Group A soon descended the steps to the arena. When the time started all hell, brook loses as the examinees rushed toward each other.

”I wonder if there will be any deaths?” Henry said

”Nah don't think so” Rain pointed at a globe by the instructors ”That thing seems to have some kind of magic enchantment on it”

”So, it could prevent any deaths”

Glass wasn't paying attention to them converse about the arena as she started trans fixated on a red-haired youth that caught her gaze.

”Claudius” she whispered and then the red-haired youth turned to meet her gaze as if he heard her call his name. Before he focused on his battle with a flushed face.

[Name: Roland Starfall]

Lvl: 512

Race: Human, Half-Dragon

Class: Warrior

Roland had taken out many already taken out many Examines; He wanted to impress the girl who had caught his eye with his strength. He felt a little depressed that she didn't even put him in her sight maybe he needed to be a bit more noticeable. Roland has always been told he was handsome, and many women had thrown themselves at him. Roland picked up his great sword and started swinging knocking the other testes out left and right.

Out of no where he heard a voice call his name and looked at his crush who was staring directly at him. His name why did he think 'that' was his name. He saw that the girl wasn't looking away, so he turned around as he knew his face was red.

”Clank” His Sword clashes with another. A girl about his age had clashed with his sword. She had also had the same red-hair has him. Roland at this point becomes a little nervous; he feels the girl in front of is stronger than he is. They begin to clash swords, without the young girl's sword ever leaving her sheath.

”Hey, that girl uses a similar style to yours,” Henry said.

”It is the same” Rain looked at Glass who was utterly silent as he watched the two continuously clash sword before one of her rare smiles appeared on her face.

[Name: Clarity Regina]

Lvl: 621

Race: Mermaid, Half-Intoner

Class: Demon Slayer

'Clarity' Glass though to herself as she didn't expect to see one of her grandchildren here. Queen Noah Arialis (Azalea) Regina, the goddess of the Sea. Clarity was born as a pair of triplets, she was the youngest of her two older sisters Remedy and Melody. When they meet, it was around the time when Azalea was going to descend, So, it was sensitive time for her daughter. Thus, Glass disguised herself as a Traveling Swordsman, ”Man,” that visited the underwater Kingdom Atlantics that resided in the Infinite Ocean and Taught her the Slayer style she uses.

The Infinite Ocean is a rare existence that can connect to the seas of other Oceans.

In descending into godhood Azalea had dead which sparked a war between Clarity's older sister. In the end Clarity has stabbed Melody and was exiled by Remedy. Glass looks sadly at Clarity, Melody did have this coming to her Afterall, but for Clarity to step in and end her life. It must have been hard for her.

Glass remembered when she had to tell Azalea about what happened…She didn't want to think about it.

Roland was having trouble with this girl it seems she was way too strong. Each time he clashed with her his arm felt as if it would go numb. But he didn't want to lose; he knows he can't beat her, So, he'll focus on defending, besides there is only one-minute left. Then all-of-a-sudden Clarity backed away, Roland felt something was coming as he picked up his cape and covered himself with. The ground of the arena shock violently as a large amount of dust flew everywhere completely covering Roland completely.

”Ding” a loud bell sound rung marking the end of A groups battle as the dust finally cleared up, revealing Roland who was safe from the attack.

As the results read out. Group B was being called to the ring, Making Glass stand up with Henry and Rain following her.

The three of them stand at the edge of the ring, as a bell rang marking the beginning of B groups battle.

And Like A group all hell breaks loose. Henry Kneels and uses one hand to touch the ground while Rain stretches and yawns.

Crack, in an instant the entire arena breaks apart.

Dropping all the testes below before they even had the chance to do anything. The only place that didn't seem to break apart was the edge of the area where Henry, Rain, and Glass stand. The look of shock on everyone's faces as they had no idea what had happened.
