When Zack said about the Advance combat test. Mr James was slightly surprised not by the news of the Advance Combat test. Earlier in the morning his good friend Arthur had conveyed to him everything; including some confidential matter that occurs behind the scenes.
He was surprised by seeing Zack's enthusiasm. Mr James thought in his heart. I believe it is better to send the news to Sir Lowell McClain. Sir McClain is an Official Mentor to him. He will have some better plans due to power and connection.
He already told everything to Granny Park. She had belief in Zack more than me.
Granny Park asked, "Zack, How confident are you to pass the Advance Combat Test tomorrow?"
Zack replied, "To be honest, I don't know?" then he said, "If it is Basic Combat Test, then I don't have to worry about it. I had good stats, it won't be much of a problem to join Advance class".
Hearing such a straightforward answer from Zack, Ms Park was happy. She thought it is good that Zack got a sense of measure. He will do well in the CRIMSON SWORD HALL exhibition event.
He doesn't like to show off at the same time He does want to be bullied by others. She smiled and asked, "Then, you don't seem to be worried at all".
Zack replied, "Granny, I do not know the content of the test? It is a waste of time to think about that. I will know about that tomorrow eventually. On other hand, when compared to other classmates in my class. I believe both me and the girl Maria Frazier seems to be the elemental warriors.
The rest of them are not and Ms Key conveyed that only the top 2 from the Advance Combat Test get placed in Advance Class, so if it is hard for me then it's harder for the rest of them".
Mr James finally opened his mouth and said, "So, it is already decided then, you and that girl will be the one get placed in Advance Class, But I also remind you not be complacent and do well tomorrow"
He wants to explain further that it is not just Simple Advanced Class but in the end. He decides better not to, It will be better it is handled by Sir McClain.
Granny Park said, "Zack, Go to sleep early, don't be a night owl because warrior's need to maintain a fresh mind and body". Mr James also reminded him to maintain a good health routine.
After the dinner was done, everyone left. Zack went back to his room. He laid comfortably on the bed. Zack thought, Uncle James reminded me not to use elemental power tomorrow. He sighed thinking about that. He slightly rubbed the ring on his finger and seeped his consciousness into it.
He saw the white bone in the case. Suddenly, He jumped from the bed and took out the White bone Sword from his ring. He holds the sword in his right hand. He observed the sword closely every detail of it.
He lifted his left hand above and notices his palm. He thought of lightning and the lightning rune in his consciousness started to flicker and a Violet thick spark generated in his hand. It is just a speck of violet spark. He placed his left hand on the nearby wooden table. While carrying a falchion sword in the right hand.
"BANG" A loud sound reverberated throughout the entire bedroom.
Zack got perplexed, He defended the debris from reaching him with his right-hand sword. After the aftermath when everything settled down. Zack noticed the area he placed on the table. The area was gone, Even though the generated Violet sparks were little. When violet spark came in contact with the face of the table.
It obliterated everything on the surface area like they did not even exist in the first place. Unlike the fire element which burns everything on the contact place left to collect ashes. The lightning element simply destructed it. Leaving behind no ashes.
Zack was surprised. He thought I only wanted to test it. But even the little sparks seems to be powerful. If I used this power tomorrow in the combat test. I am sure no one can be my opponent. He sighed.
Meanwhile. Hearing the explosion in Zack's room.
Mr James got up from his work. He quickly came to Zack's room. So did Granny Park.
Both Granny and Mr James entered Zack's room at the same time. Mr James said, "Zack, What happened?" Hearing that Zack became serious, he thought it's over.
He quickly got over the dilemma and replied, "I just used a little bit of lightning energy to test its impact".
Granny said, "Zack, without proper technique, you cannot channel the energy. It flows all over the area randomly; especially lightning energy it's even more dominance you cannot control the range".
Zack replied, "I will make sure it won't happen, Granny".
Mr James said, "It not only dangerous but also a waste of energy Zack; with proper technique, you can use minimal energy to achieve effective results".
Mr James further continued, "This all can be done when you join the academy but I feel better you to have some lightning techniques earlier".
Zack felt relaxed, I thought I will be scolded by both Granny and Uncle James. But he doesn't know the real reason behind it.
Granny said, "I think the most important thing for Zack, now is rest. He got a big day tomorrow".
Uncle James also said, "Yes, Zack get some sleep".
After both of them left saying good night to Zack. They left the room and arrived at the Hall.
Mr James said, "Ms Park, What do you think? I already sent news to Zack's Mentor Sir Lowell McClain".
Granny replied, "I wanted to scold Zack, but seeing him lacking lightning technique. I also felt that he needed some technique especially speed techniques. It can help him escape from the danger".
Mr James replied, "Yes, I noticed some spies activities in the town lately ".
