"This thing is yours?"

"......" Ai Xue saw the iron knife in the hand of the mysterious woman.

"Don't be nervous, I just happened to find something interesting as I was passing by. ”

Ai Xue took two steps back vigilantly, trying to get away from the person in front of her, but her eyes remained on her mother's relic.

"If you don't speak, you just acquiesce. Hehe, don't worry, I don't have any reason to hurt you. The silver bell-like laughter and suggestive words made Ai Xue let go of her hostility a little.

"I'm just curious why such a perfect weapon could be owned by a young girl who has not been deeply involved in the world. And what's even stranger is that there is not a trace of blood on it. ”

"Have you ever seen this knife, if you know anything, please tell me!" Ai Xue asked eagerly. If what the mysterious woman has in her hands is really what she says, then perhaps the clues to her parents are close at hand.

"I haven't seen it - but I'm familiar with the power above. I saw her throw it casually, and the knife had already flown back to Ai Xue's hand, and the handle that had removed most of its strength was patted on Ai Xue's palm, so that Ai Xue, who had no martial arts foundation, subconsciously grabbed the knife.

"Put this away, it can cut through a lot of unexpected things. It's not early, and I still have to leave beforehand. There will be a period later. The mysterious woman turned and jumped down from the window, and Ai Xue chased after her, but all she saw was the figure of three people wielding swords in the distance.

"Zero ......"

"Well, I saw that too. "Ai Xue had already taken out the moon timepiece when she returned to the room, which allowed Zero to witness this scene. The woman in front of him gives him (her?) the feeling, like the final boss that appeared in advance in an RPG game, giving people an unfathomable and invincible feeling, if you have to give an example, it is like a heavy building in the three miles of fairy sword?

[I hope my feelings are wrong]

"If Ike doesn't see it, forget it, don't let them be distracted by this, the academy's exams are the most important. ”

"yes, I see. Ai Xue's words were filled with a hint of loss.

"Didn't she say it? There will be a period later, if she really knows the whereabouts of your parents, it would be nice to let her know it next time. Zero didn't tell Ai Xue about his feelings, but just comforted him casually.

......

"Brother, did you encounter anything strange tonight?"

"No, maybe I was too focused on the practice and didn't pay attention. Go to bed early, and tomorrow I'll go to see the streets of the royal capital. ”

"Hmm. Looking at her brother who was sleeping in front of her, Ai Xue also put aside her troubles for the time being......

――――――――――I am the dividing line that symbolizes the passage of time――――――――――

Despite seeing a wide variety of goods, the empty purse does not allow them to spend lavishly on unnecessary things. As soon as the novelty passed, all that remained was the expectation of the entrance exam to Collers College. Because the college is not open to the public, they did not go to visit in advance.

Twenty days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Ai Xue has already buried that night in her heart.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, the entrance of the college was already crowded, and the group that had just arrived couldn't help but sigh.

"It's magnificent, this is like the place where my legend began. Kaos, who has been poisoned by various stories, has started secondary school again.

Ai Xue grabbed Ike's hand a little nervously.

"Don't worry, I'll be able to get through. I believe that you can do it too. ”

Ai Xue knew that it took a lot of talent to become a magician, but her brother's words gave her a great sense of security.

――――――――――I'm nervous about the dividing line――――――――――

Suddenly, a loud voice came from the sky.

"Hello everyone, I guess most of the people below are here to take the entrance exam for our Colles Academy. ”

"Look, it's Schindler the eulogy singer!"

"It's amazing, he is flying so high in the air. ”

"You don't understand this, it's just an ordinary flying technique, a necessary skill that any wind mage will learn. ”

"Looking at his clothes, there is no trace of the wind, and the whole person is like standing there. Sure enough, the level 9 powerhouse is different!"

"You can see it. ”

......

"Please be quiet. The voice was clear and loud, with an undoubted majesty of the superior, reaching the ears of all. The boiling crowd immediately calmed down.

"Today and tomorrow are our annual freshman entrance exams at Collers College. In line with the educational concept of recruiting talents, our school has cultivated batches of outstanding talents for the Liber Kingdom, some of them have become a new generation of nobles, some have become famous magicians, some have become the king's generals, and some have entered the workshop, in this peaceful era without war, we should be more prepared for danger in times of peace, they have made indelible contributions to the development and strength of our country, they are the heroes of this era!"

"What are you here for?!" Schindler's voice was full of encouragement.

"To be a hero!" "For the glory of the kingdom!" was in the eyes of most of the people on the field, and this qiē was seen by Schindler.

"Collers College welcomes people who have dreams! But those who don't have the ability to realize their dreams will be eliminated by the college. We recruit 2,000 students from all over the country every year, which is more than three times the number of the Demon Martial Arts Academy! However, I am afraid that less than one-fifth of those who will be able to stay in the academy in the coming year, and only really good people can graduate from here. This is the iron system of the college so as not to waste our precious educational resources. Those who walk out of the academy will be proud of it for life!"

"Now, Schindler, the singer of my eulogy, hereby announces that the entrance examination for the ninety-seventh freshman class of Collus College begins now!"

"Please note that today is about to take part in the magic test! First of all, this part is completely free! Even students who want to apply for the martial arts and technology department can try to participate, and maybe you are the next magic genius. In order to ensure that the test can be carried out in an orderly manner, all participants are asked to line up as much as possible, keep to the right and pass the door of truth in front of guò, and carry out the preliminary test of mental power, the real registration is 30 meters ahead, you can see from here, and if you can walk there, even if you pass the guò test. ”

The Gate of Truth is actually the gate of the Academy, and it is engraved with a huge illusion magic array, which can be continuously and effectively operated by continuously injecting magic power from the two level 5 great magicians. Its function is very simple, creating an illusionary space that disorients people "precisely", but in reality it is very weak. Those who are mentally strong enough to be qualified for the position of mage can not be affected by this illusion. And those who are not qualified are......

"Hey, why am I so far away from the academy?" "Haha!" The people next to him laughed too.

"Please leave a passage for the unsuccessful candidates so that they can leave the scene. The teacher shouted loudly with amplification.

The vast majority of the participants were shunted by the Gate of Truth, and they walked into the school gate, turned 90 degrees to the left, walked two steps, turned 90 degrees to the left, and left straight away. Only far less than one-tenth of the candidates made it to the real place of registration, including Ai Xue, of course.
