Several of the demons raised their hands all at once. Belial looked through the students before picking on Bast. The little vampire stood up from her desk before asking her question.
"How do we learn about our elements and the amount of talent we have?"
Hearing her question, all the other hands that were still up immediately went down. They all looked at Belial with curiosity in their eyes. Seeing that they were all a bit innocent caused the vampire to let out a laugh.
"Of course. That is the main purpose of what we are here for today."
He then pointed at the stand in the center of the room before pointing at various pillars around the room.
"We will be testing your magical talent with that. You will place your hand on the stand which will scan the dormant mana within your body.
Once the mana is scanned, it will be distributed to the 7 pillars around the room and cause them to glow for the elements you have as well as your talent in that element.
Most creatures only cause 1 pillar to light up. The higher the rank though, the more likely more than a single pillar will light up. For SS ranks such as yourselves, you should each light up 2.
The exception to this will be Persephone. Witches already have 2 elements so True Witches will most likely have 3 or even 4 elements."
Everyone nodded at the words and there was some expectation in their hearts. No one wanted to be the weakest of the group or turn out to not have magical talent.
Belial called them up one by one to place their hands on the stand. He said that they would go in order from races with the most magical talent to least. Oni, Devil, Vampire, Dragon, and then Witch.
Mordred and Hades looked at each other. Mordred shrugged his shoulders to the rRd Oni and allowed him to go up first. Hades did not hesitate to run up and place his hand on the stand.
A first nothing happened, then everyone felt a pulse in the room. Soon two pillars lit up to the 4th line in each one of them. Belial soon announced the result.
"Fire element: Grand, Darkness Element: Grand."
Hades looked especially happy to hear his results but then showed a confused face immediately after.
"Instructor? Is that good or bad?" asked Hades
"For an SS rank? That is an average result. It is to be expected that you have grand talent in two elements."
Hearing the words, Hades had a disappointed look on his face when he heard that his results could only be counted as average among the results of SS ranks.
'This guy is an idiot. Even if it is average for an SS rank, even an S rank has to pray to have a single element at the grand level, let alone two.
If anyone of the lower rank would see his face, they would want to beat him to death. In fact, it seems our teacher does,' Mordred thought to himself as he walked up to the stand and placed his hand on it.
There was a pause in the air before the familiar pulse came once again. This time, 3 pillars lit up. 2 to the 4th line while one had reached the 5th line.
"Water element: Grand, Wind element: Grand, Arcane element: Supreme."
Everyone was shocked to hear Mordred's results, even Belail himself. He had sent the Oni out first since they usually had the weakest amount of talent when it came to magic. He wanted to ensure that no one felt disappointed for having less talent than someone later on since it would only be natural for Oni to have less.
But if one of the Oni had to have 3 elements and one of them even being supreme. That would definitely hurt the confidence of the others and even the other Oni.
'I can only blame myself for this. Oh well. They will eventually get over it. Hopefully.'
Belial called for one of the Devils to come up next. Supay, who invented a rivalry all on his own with Mordred, stood up immediately and went to the stand. He glared at the Blue Oni as he put his hand on the stand.
'Is he another idiot? There is already Hades and Kali. Now there is a third? Just great,' Mordred thought while letting out a mental sigh in his head while his face showed nothing that he was thinking.
For Supay, only 2 pillars lit up just like Hades. He turned out to have grand talent in both fire and earth elements. Niya who went up after him had similar results coming out with grand talent in earth and darkness elements.
The next to go up were the two vampire girls. Everyone in the room was surprised to see that the pair shared the same amount of talent in the same elements. Both had grand talent in arcane and dark elements.
Belial noted down everyone before moving on to the next pair, the dragon princesses. Kali insisted that she go up first. After she placed her hand on the stand, the pulse happened almost immediately before lighting up 4 pillars.
"Arcane: High, Fire: Grand, Wind: Grand, Light: Grand," Belial announced, barely able to conceal the shock in his voice. Kali had the talent in elements that were comparable to a High Witch.
Satana went up directly behind Kali and a similar scene occurred, Almost immediately after she placed her hand on the stand, the pulse occurred and 4 pillars lit up.
"Arcane: High, Water: Grand, Earth: Grand, Darkness: Grand," Belial announced. He was still not over his shock with Kali's result and was not prepared to see Satana produce such results before him.
His mind soon traveled away from the dragon princesses and looked at the only witch present. There was a mixture of both fear and expectation in his heart when he looked at her.
'An Oni with 3 elements and one being supreme and 2 dragons with 4 elements each. What will the high witch show me? Something even more amazing?'
Persephone walked up to the stand and placed her hand on it. There was not even a pause before the pulse occurred and lit up the pillars. Yes, not just some of the pillars but every pillar was glowing. Belial struggled to announce the results but he knew he had to.
"Wind: Grand, Water: Grand, Fire: Grand, Earth: Grand, Light: Supreme, Arcane: Supreme, Darkness: Divine!" he finally spit out. He had been the imperial tutor for over 700 years and had even seen the last demon lords and emperor when they got their results for their talent.
Neither the current Demon Emperor nor Demon Lord of Lust had magical talent similar to hers with each only having 5 and 6 elements respectively. He was shocked most of the results he saw that day.
Almost all of them had a rare element of darkness or light. And one of the two who did not, possessed 3 elements with one of them being at the supreme grade.
'These little demons will cause so much trouble when they grow up. I almost feel pity for the rest of the world. Almost.'
"Well. Now that you all know your results, we will begin going over some more basic concepts with the remaining hour we have left here."
