Greetings, Mister Principal: Magic Test


Different from the first three exams, the fourth and most important subject, the magic test, does not involve everyone sitting in the classroom and writing papers in a harmonious manner, but a real test.

On the fifth floor of the Magic Association, in a spacious and bright room, three mages in robes sat behind a long table.

The one on the far left is Rupert. He is looking at the information sheet on the table and making notes with a pen from time to time.

The person on the far right is a slightly fat middle-aged woman with fluffy hair hanging down to her ears. She wears gold-rimmed glasses. Her robe has no wrinkles. The cuffs and three gold rims flash in the afternoon sun.

The old man sitting in the middle had no hair and his goatee was neatly combed. He held a delicate quill and raised his head slightly.

"James Patchwell, the spell you submitted is a magic water curtain mirror wall, and you did successfully cast this spell."

The old man's voice was low, echoing in the empty room. The four gold coins on his cuffs made people unable to take their eyes away. This was a four-ring mage.

In fact, this is also the president and top leader of the Toronto Magic Association, Daniel Glaze, who specializes in the elemental system and has been a reviewer of magic tests for ten years.

Hearing President Daniel's words, James' originally tense nerves relaxed slightly, but the next words of the other party made the young man's heart skip a beat.

"However, during this process, the flow of magic power was disrupted three times. Thanks to your own magic power reserves, you were able to suppress the turbulence, otherwise you would definitely fail."

President Daniel's words made James open his eyes wide. It is true that he made some mistakes in the process of casting the spell just now. It was all because the "gift" that Reiner gave them before caused James' distraction. This is true. It's true, but there were no flaws in the way he cast the spell just now. How could the person in front of him see through it so easily?

"Don't underestimate the judge, little one."

President Daniel saw James' doubts. Of course he also knew that the Patchwell family had a certain foundation here, but if he was afraid of this, he might not have chosen to serve as a reviewer ten years ago.

"Get out."

With a wave of his hand, President Daniel ordered James to leave, and at the same time put points on the list of results.

The two reviewers beside him also recorded their scores at the same time.

This is actually very similar to the situation when reviewing academic papers. The three reviewers have their own weights and combine the scores to give the final result.

However, the evaluation criteria for this link are also very clear.

Apprentices first submit a ring of magic that they are ready to test, and then cast it on the spot. The judges will score based on the performance of the spell. For those who fail in spell casting, the result is obviously easy to see.

As for those who successfully cast the spell, the judges will gradually give points on the passing line based on the details of the spell, and finally get a relatively accurate result. This is a bit like the scoring of sports events on earth, although subjectivity has a certain impact. , but the basic evaluation criteria still exist.

After James left, Dana was the next person to come in.

"Hello, adults, I am Dana Kristen, and the magic I am going to cast is a ring of magic, fireball."

Danna’s palms were sweating and she whispered, not wanting to look directly at the three judges, trying to relieve her tension.

Although she was full of confidence when chatting with Reiner in the morning, Dana was still an apprentice who had just mastered the art of casting spells, and she did not take the exam with the idea of ​​passing it this time.

Even if a quasi-first-level mage needs to engrave the spell into his soul, Dana has no time to prepare.

"Christine, Milly, is this the one?"

President Daniel asked the female judge next to him in a voice that Dana could not hear.

"It should be right, these are the orphans of Christine and his wife."

The mage who was replaced by Milly replied that Adol Christian and Elena Christine are somewhat famous mage in Ammonai Province, although it has been ten years since the accident between them. Years ago, but within the Toronto Magic Association, there are still many old mages who remember the two of them.

It’s just that Dana’s uncle, Chester Christian, doesn’t have a good relationship with the Magic Association, so Dana’s situation is not known to these people. Of course, people like President Daniel have no influence on Grams. The Ristins had only met each other a few times, and there was no such thing as taking care of the orphans of their friends.

Denna didn't notice the comments of the judges. After getting Rupert's permission, she raised her hand and faced a deep obsidian on the side of the room.

This is a device specially used to test the power of magic. It can withstand direct hits from standard spells below the third level and give power data. It can also absorb excess energy. When the mage apprentice chooses offensive magic, This device comes in handy.

"Interesting."

When President Daniel saw what Dana was holding, he smiled slightly.

That's a staff.

To be precise, it was a wooden stick about one-third of a yard long, and there was no trace of magic on it ~IndoMTL.com~ It was not a magic prop, just an ordinary slender wooden stick. .

This was suggested by Reiner in order to give Dana a psychological hint. As long as she holds this "staff", she can successfully cast magic.

This does not violate the rules of the assessment, but it just makes President Daniel feel that this little girl is very interesting.

Denna closed her eyes, and the complex and beautiful spell model of Fireball emerged in her mind. Many nodes lit up one by one, shining like stars. At the same time, dazzling magic channels continued to shuttle between these nodes. , gradually depicting the spell model of fireball.

But a spark sparkled, and a huge torrent of magic gushed out from several key spell nodes. This was not the power that would appear during the normal process of casting a fireball spell.

Dana watched helplessly as this torrent broke through the originally harmonious spell model, pouring out from her fingertips through the staff.

Bang——

The huge roar almost shattered the magic-strengthened windows in the room, and a flash of light flew out from the front of the staff and directly hit the obsidian slab.

The wind was raging, and the dust raised hit the three judges.

Rupert stood up, he raised his hand gently, and a transparent wind wall appeared in front of the three of them, blocking the airflow in an understatement.

When the dust settled, President Daniel shook his head. This was obviously not a characteristic of the fireball spell. It seemed that Dana had indeed failed to cast the spell.

"Classmate Dana Christian, I'm sorry, you...huh?"

However, before President Daniel finished speaking, Milly pulled his cuff and pointed to the obsidian slab.

I saw a clearly visible crack on the stone slab that could withstand direct hits from standard spells below the third level!
