Chereads / The Emperor of Magic / Chapter 27 - A. Lion Statue

Chapter 27 - A. Lion Statue

They both walked casually even though many students were running around, there was nothing special for them when looking at the other students who were running like people being chased by something. Most of those who run are ordinary students who are less prominent than other students.

"There's no need to panic, Pino. Those who run... Must be afraid of being late, unfortunately they're just wasting their energy. There's no need for us to run like them, just enjoy what's going on right now," Derek said. He knows those who run, it's not a bad thing to be afraid of being late, it's just that Derek feels it's too serious when this kind of test requires calm rather than speed.

"Yes, I don't understand why they ran away and rushed. I don't feel the need at all to run like them. It's not about speed but about focus and calmness, where we can use magic if it's not quiet, the results we're going to bring out are definitely not maximal," pino said, understanding the essence of the use of magic makes him understand that speed is not a bad thing, but it takes the right time to make the most of it.

The two of them just walked casually without any weight, paying attention to their surroundings, they finally arrived in a large and spacious building with several statues in the form of soldiers and witches. Various eye-catching ornaments are clearly visible on the walls of the building, and they both also see a fairly large entrance. They went straight into the place.

"There are so many young people in this place, the flow of which they are different, Derek... Can you use Detect of Life magic? If you can use them then you'll know what they're like." Pino who has just used Detect of Life magic feels the flow of each student around the building even though the radius is still small.

"Oh... you know, I'm not It's an unusual magic but it's easy to learn, I haven't learned it, yet I know what it's for. Interestingly enough, you could use it!!! Are you really a witch? I thought you were like any other physical witch leaning towards a soldier? It turns out you're a real witch!!" Derek is a little surprised to learn about Pino's abilities, at first he thinks that Pino will join the soldiers compared to witches, all because he sees Pino's stature as more suitable to be a soldier than a witch.

"I'm going to have to ask you I do have an unusual body for a witch! However, I intend to choose the witch class over the warrior class. Even though in the warrior class I'm going to receive magic training, I don't think I really need it, because what I'm lacking right now is magic, and again it's a testament to my parents. By the way, do you know who the examiner is, Derek?" asked Pino, the two of them lined up to enter, there were two lion statues right next to the entrance of the building, and the number of students who stepped in made the two lion statues did not show their existence properly, as a result the two statues seemed ordinary even though the two statues were watching all the students who were entering the building.

The two lion statues have different auras compared to the others. The eyes of the two statues emitted a light that only certain people could see, and by the time they both shone, Pino noticed. At first, he thought it was just a normal situation because he couldn't believe it was a real thing at all.

"Am I hallucinating? Why can i see a light from the two eyeballs of the statue? Huft, I'm sorry. I seem to be too tired, and too focused. I need to calm down and not think more, I'm close to my goal... studying magic more deep and officially, now that I have to calm down," murmured Pino, he was completely skeptical of what he was facing at the moment, never did he think he would see anything like this.

Pino did not know if what he saw was a reality, he would never know it because the light coming from both eyes on the statue could only be seen by a handful of people. However, Pino only approached the statue for a moment to take a deeper look at the eyes of the two statues.

After queuing long enough and paying attention to the two eyeballs of the statues, he began to enter the building. When he entered the building, he discovered that the building was just a large, two-story hall, and on the second floor itself there were many people who looked like teachers and appraisers.

There is nothing but new students on the first floor and an empty field with several objects intended to test the feasibility of them all. Pino noticed there were some students who looked different from the others, and he felt if they like having something else.

"Derek, do you know them all? There are some people here who have different levels especially those who have eccentric appearances. Do you know who they are?" asked Pino as he sensed a certain degree of people in the room.

"I'm going to have to ask you mean them? How could I not know, they are the pupils of choice and featured in this exam. Who are they? I think people here already know who they are. Those eccentric-looking people are royalty. You'd better look at it in person than I tell you, you'll believe it yourself," replied Derek, he saw some students in eccentric clothes and looks at some point.

"Oh... you know, I'm not I thought you knew it was just this far you wanted to tell me. The nobles... how strong are these, I hope they do not disappoint, despite having a great lineage, not necessarily they have the same ability as their lineage, right?" Pino hopes they will have a good ability so that he can find the right figure for him to learn again for him to make as an opponent.

Not because he was arrogant or anything like that, he just felt that if his ability was enough to give him confidence, during his two years of studying under Poorstag, he pretty much understood all his lessons, including with the essence of his own magic.

A short time later, when the situation was really noisy, a middle-aged man on the second floor stood upright and looked at all the students. The look in his eyes alone has made the whole area quiet, no one expects them to feel great pressure again unusual.

As he stood up, all the testers on the first floor bowed and lined up neatly while waiting for orders and what the man would say.
