Super Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 12 Talent Tes

Morrow put Jon to sleep, and Angel did not try wake him up again. He simply asked the mute servant to send his mentor back to the house.

Then the crowd returned to the old castle.

Leon ordered all those under the age of 50 to be gathered in the hall, and asked Morrow to conduct a talent test on the crowd.

Angel wanted to be the first to test, but Leon stopped him and whisper in his ear: “First, let each person test, then you come in again at the end.”

Leon did not explain why, but Angel knew the reason.

As Morrow said just explained, there was not one person in ten thousand that was a talent.

Of course, if there is really no talents among the servants.

If there are servant in front to take the test, and then they come back, even if there is no talent, it will not appear too prominent.

If he tests directly and the results turn out to be that he was not a talent, he will lose a lot of face.

Soon nearly a hundred servants under the age of fifty lined up at the gate of the castle.

Although many were woken up in the middle of the night, no one dared to complain, all stood up straight with trepidation.

“Everyone is here, so let us begin the testing. One of you come up,” said Morrow.

The location where the talent was tested was a small storeroom in which Leon had requested his servants to remove all objects from the storeroom, leaving only a space for Morrow to arrange.

Morrow sat on a ceremonial chair, with Angel, Leon, Ethan and both Allen and his sister Irene sitting on both sides of him.

Opposite to Morrow was an empty area, which was reserved for testing participants.

The lamp on the table lit the room with a deep-sea whale oil scent.

The soft and bright light scattered from the lamp, shone brightly in the narrow storage room.

Morrow took out a red crystal ball from his broad robe and put it on the table.

This red crystal ball is nothing special.

It was much dimmer than the transparent crystal ball suspended around Morrow.

“This is the eye of Abellas, also known as the talent ball. It is made from the eyeball of Abellas, a strange beast in the Abyss Plane.

Morrow explained: “Although Abellas demons do not have the power of force, their souls are still very powerful.”

A talent ball made from it’s eyes can enter a person’s soul and reflect the person’s talent.”

The first to come in and test was Ollie, a maid who served the daily needs of Angel’s life.

Ollie is one year older than Angel and just became 15 years old today.

Usually the two get along in harmony, not like master and servant, but more like friends.

So when Ollie came in, although her face looked serious, she secretly winked at Angel when everyone was not paying attention.

Angel briefly explained the contents of this test.

Ollie’s eyes lit up when she heard it.

As long as one has talent, one can become a legendary wizard?!

Ollie’s heart began to beat loudly, she could even hear it as she spoke.

This is an opportunity, an opportunity given to change her fate.

Ollie realized it, and her relaxed state of mind immediately tightened up in an instant.

With great respect, she saluted to Morrow, and then withstanding the excitement, sat down opposite to Morrow.

Morrow pointed to the red talent ball. “The test is simple. When you touch the crystal ball with your hand. Do not release your hand, pay attention and observe everything around you, try to find whether there is any change. If there is a change, it means you have talent.”

A change?

Ollie did not understand for a moment, nor did anyone else, Morrow explained further: “This change is according to the individual, different talents will create different situations. Giving my example. When I touched the talent ball, I found that the fire burning in the fireplace not far from me, suddenly went from a very small fire to a raging flame. This kind of change was something an outsider cannot see, only I was capable of finding this change, and this was a display of talent.”

After Morrow explained it, he went on and further said, “The talent ball cannot truly test a person’s talent, but it is said that one can receive guidance on the way forward by noticing this ‘change’. Of course, this claim is unfounded. Personally, I don’t believe it. After all, my practice in fire magic is not necessarily faster than my water system magic.”

“My granddaughter Irene, after touching the talent ball, found all kinds of whispers coming into her ears. This is also a change.”

Morrow also pointed to the chubby Allen: “When Allen was testing his talent, he saw an extra piece of brown bread on the plate, which was also a change.”

“If, in a minute of touching the talent ball nothing around changes. Well, it is unfortunate, it just means you don’t have talent.” Morrow shrugged.

After Morrow finished, he stopped talking and pushed the talent ball to Ollie’s side.

Ollie swallowed deeply, reaching out her trembling hand and laid it on the talent ball.

The little hourglass on the table only fell for a minute, Ollie shook her head in disappointment at Morrow and then took a step back.

Morrow’s face was expressionless: “Next.”

As time went on, dozens of people tested one by one, but unfortunately, none of them had talent.

At this time, a kind-looking young man, after touching the talent ball, showed a flash of light in his eyes.

“I just felt a breeze blowing in front of me, and I felt as if I was in a sea of wind.” The young man hugged the sky with enjoyment on his face.

“What. Was there a change? A real man of talent showed up?!”

Count Ethan on one side cried out in surprise.

He did not expect that when they didn’t find any talents in the capital, that there was one in the countryside.

Leon’s expression was also excited, and he happily asked maid Mana about the identity of the young man.

Maid Mana looked at the appearance of the kind looking young man, but the corner of her mouth coldly spat, this person from the manor is a well known swindler, she did not expect such a person to have talent!

At the bottom of her heart, Mana scolded the goddess of luck for being too eccentric, while whispering, “He is the son of gardener Gelan, named Fox.”

“Fox?”

Leon has never heard of him, but it was no big deal. There were so many servants on the estate that it was normal to not know.

Leon said happily to Mana, “Later, take out a hundred gold coins from the warehouse and give it to them.”

“Wait a minute.”

Suddenly, Morrow’s low voice rang through the room.

Fox had heard Leon’s reward, his eyes filled with pride, but as soon as he heard Morrow’s voice, he was dispirited, and his forehead was covered in varying sizes of beads of sweat.

“The wind of the sea? He-he. When I was in the capital, no one dared to deceive me. I didn’t expect anyone here would dare to make up a story in front of me. Do you really think that white wizards don’t have a temper?”

After that, Morrow snorted coldly, and a violent storm surrounded Fox.

“Since you want to feel the wind of the sea, I will give it to you. Try this raving wind!”

After a scream, Fox was blown out the window by a whirlwind and was lifted as high as the high third floor and fell down to the ground floor while yelling and screaming.

Leon’s face was white: “Sir Morrow, what’s going on? Was Fox lying?”

Morrow sneered: “Although the ‘change’ can only be seen by the parties concerned. And while outsiders do not know what happens once there is a ‘change’, the talent ball will shine, reminding me that a talent is present.”

When Morrow’s words were finished, everyone naturally knew the cause and consequences.

They kept watching throughout, and the ball did not shine from beginning to end this day, which showed that Fox was obviously lying.

After Leon heard this, there was a hint of unbearable anger on his face. “From tomorrow onwards, I don’t want to see Fox in Grud Town again,” said Leon to maid Mana.

When Mana heard this command, she gave a quiet reply before going out the door.

People no longer paid attention to Fox’s follow up.

Morrow adjusted his robe, put away his impatient look, and went on to test the others.

Two hours had passed through the hourglass, and all the servants were tested, including maid Mana and the garrison knights, none of whom had any talent.

Morrow then turned his eyes to Angel.

Angel knew it was his turn.

…….

“I’ll go first. I’m interested in wizards as well. I have just heard from Sir Morrow that wizards have a long life span, reaching near immortality, which is one of my wishes.”

Leon blocked Angel and sat down in front of Morrow. “The longer I live, the more scenes I can see. I want to see all the beauty this world has to offer.”

Angel saw his brother come forward, and instead of stepping back, he sat down next to Leon.

“After you.” Angel made a fist-clenching gesture to Leon, which was their way these two brothers cheered each other on when they were children.

Leon smiled, rubbed Angel’s soft hair, then smiled and reached out to the talent ball.

The white sands of time in the hourglass falls slowly.

Leon‘s eyes wandered slowly around the room, trying to find out where the change was.

A minute later, Leon had a deep look of disappointment in his eyes and then let his hand go from the talent ball.

“It appears that I am not gifted.”

Leon regret that he had not seen any change in that minute.

Indeed, as Morrow said, the gifted are too rare.

“It’s up to you now.”

Leon patted Angel on the shoulder.

Angel nodded and slowly put his hand on the smooth surface of the talent ball.
