116 Chapter 116 – The second test
The second test was inside a huge extravagantly decorated building with a lot of hallways. They all were separated into different groups. Elle fortunately was assigned the same room as Aiden while Ethan was left all alone.
The twins poutingly looked at her.
“you guys go on. I can find my own way. You don’t want to be late for your testing, right?” she gently patted their puffed-up cheeks.
Ethan grabbed her hand and nuzzled his face against her palm. “I don’t want you to go alone...”
seeing his actions Aiden also did the same looking up at him like a cute little puppy
“There are a lot of students here. I’ll not be alone,” she gently pinched his cheeks.
“Meimei~” Elle hugged her pant legs. “Can you really find your own way to the testing room? Sir Claudius can you take my Meimei to her testing are,” she kindly bowed to the young boy standing behind them.
“Why are you asking him!” Ethan growled.
.....
“Since you asked so kindly will reluctantly agree to let her follow me,” Claudius haughtily mumbled
Feng frowned. “I can definitely find it on my own, thank you.”
After a while of convincing, the young ones finally decided to part ways.
Feng’s testing area was up ahead. They had to take a few rights and they were at the spot.
Claudius swished his coat tail and sat down on the waiting chair regally. “Why are you standing there like a statue? Sit,” he patted the seat next to him.
Feng kindly decided to ignore his chatter and sat one seat away from him.
Claudius gave a small glare her way. “Why won’t you sit next to me?”
“Sir women and men have to keep a good distance from each other,”
“Those two guys were literally sticking to you, I didn’t see you reprimanding them,”
“They are my dear friends. I think that is a self-explanatory statement,” she heard loud sounds of grinding teeth,
Ignoring him Feng glanced at the closed door.
A sense of anticipation and dread filled her. ‘gods... why is this so nerve-wracking.’
After that previous attack on the ship, everyone happily informed her that she had awakened an ability but she didn’t believe so. She was after all using the game’s props. It wasn’t her power at all.
She had mentioned it to lady Hiliana once but she firmly assured her that her powers have been awakened.
“Miss Feng Rofles,” the door opened. A young blond-haired woman stood by the doorway with a sweet smile on her face. “Please come in,”
‘This is it. this moment will tell me if I have powers or not.’ He wiped her sweaty hands on her skirt and walked to the testing room.
“don’t sweat like a pig.. its just testing,” she could hear Claudius mumble from behind her.
‘Easy for you to say.... I’m just a side character in this game buddy... I might not actually have any powers.’ thinking this Feng entered the room.
Four people sat in the room and in the middle was a huge pink crystal sphere.
‘This must be the legendary testing stone. It looks ordinary, though.’
the other three judged did not bother to even take a good look at her before mumbling, “place both your hands on the crystal and release your powers. Do not hold anything back because this test will affect your future classes and teachers you will be assigned to,”
Feng gulped and stepped up to it.
The crystal was about the size of a football emitting cold air around it.
She placed both her hands on it and closed her eyes. ‘If I have any powers. This is the time to shine. Come out oh might ability.’
She didn’t feel anything much.
Feng cracked one eye open and looked at the crystal. It didn’t do anything special.
The four judged looked even more bored after that. they yawned and waved at her. “Please input your powers.”
“ah... how do I do that...” she awkwardly scratched her head.
The beautiful young lady smiled at her warmly. “Place your hand on the testing stone and think of the first time you awakened your powers. Feel what you felt that day. That usually works for students,”
‘I’m not sure it will work for me though,’ she placed her hand on the crystal and closed her eyes.
She thought back to that day. The day they were attacked. She had used her powers without even releasing it.
‘What did I feel that day?’
Her small body trembled.
It was fear.
She feared that her family would be hurt.
Suddenly she heard loud gasps in the room.
Feng slowly cracked open her eyes. the crystal shone blindingly.
“it’s a level three! It’s a level three ability!” the three teachers excitedly look at the crystal.
‘That sounds like a good thing.’
slowly the light dimmed.
The pink crystal had turned transparent and inside there was a weird swirl of silver and gold. It looked like shiny luster dust she had seen back in her world. It was so mesmerizing to look at.
She looked up at the teachers. Three of them had disappointed looks on their faces.
Only the young lady smiled at her cheerfully. “Congratulation Feng you have level three, time ability.”
Feng grinned happily. ‘I relay do have powers. Whoo hoo...’
But soon her cheerful mood was culled by the three other teachers. They did not look like they were impressed. ‘Getting a level three ability is rare for my age. Why are they so disappointed though?’
“Little Feng you will be in special class 1B. do you have any teachers you wish to apprentice under? If not, we can assign you one?”
Previously when they were about to leave, Duke Lineti had a talk with her about his friend who was a master in this school. He had a specialization dedicated to time ability students. Albeit it was not popular at all because the teacher was not an ability user.
“I do. Lady.. no my mother asked me to choose Mister Hary as my master. Is that possible?”
The other judge’s expression became much worse.
Only the young lady smiled awkwardly at her. “Mister Hary has been known to be very particular when choosing his students. What about this? I will take you to him. if he likes you, you can apprentice under him. if not, I can choose a good teacher for you.”
That sounded like a great idea. This will give her a chance to actually meet the guy before accepting him as a teacher.
She nodded excitedly.
“Great. Your second test is over dear you can leave for home. The third test will be in two days. Do you need someone to escort you out?” she kindly smiled at her.
“No, thank you. I remember the route,” Feng confidently smiled at her.
Claudius was waiting outside. It was his turn for testing now. “you wait here. I will be out in a few minutes,”
Feng decided to ignore him. the least contact she had with the game charterer the least trouble she will have in the future. they were all Clarina’s love prospective indeed.
But after getting out to the familiar hallway, she was stunned. She did not know where she was. Even after taking a few rights and lefts, she could not see the end of the hallway.
“fuck I’m lost.....”
