The day after my conversation with Professors Balder and Frey, I had two things to do. The first was to go to Professor Frey's laboratory workshop and find out my results, even though the principal's deadly test only completed the first part most students. at the institute have already been eliminated. The number of approved students may not have left, but there is no way it could be high, the number of students who entered the matrix was already almost half of the students the institute had at the beginning of the year.
After two rounds of cleaning, the number of students who are still going to continue the principal's death test should be a very small number, it should be less than a hundred students. Which is a very small number compared to the hundreds of students the institute had at the beginning of the year.
After breakfast I went to meet Professor Frey, as classes are suspended, I have a lot of free time and I'm also curious about the elementary fairy, I had never read about these creatures and I also couldn't get a good view of the fairy that was trapped inside the staff, for me it was a crystal staff containing a white flame if it hadn't been for the flame's weird behavior, I wouldn't have noticed it was a living creature.
From what I could find out about the fairy yesterday overhearing the teachers' conversation with the mage Clara, I must have been very lucky to be compatible with the elementary fairy, if I wasn't compatible, I believe the fairy could not have absorbed my elemental energy by point of getting free from the staff I don't have as much elemental energy to break a high-level magic tool as the staff was. In the cave I thought the staff was fragile, but if it was really a high level hold it shouldn't have broken so easily when it hit the ground, probably even my aura blade shouldn't be able to break the crystal that the staff did. was done.
The elemental fairy should be responsible for breaking the staff and not my throwing it to the ground, but I was surprised that the fairy didn't attack me, even though I'm the one who freed her, she must hate the humans who will imprison her. I hope I don't meet her again, maybe I'm not so lucky to get out alive again.
Upon entering the laboratory, I find the teacher making tea, as I sit in the chair, I notice that on the workshop table there are some magic tools that I don't know, they are probably to help the teacher analyze or test my elemental energy, he was very curious about me be compatible with the elemental fairy.
"Good morning, Ulric. He slept well?"
"Yes teacher. Is your work done now?"
"Only a part of it, the principal has already said that tomorrow we will start making preparations for the second part of the deadly challenge, because of the large number of students, it will be a series of competitions that start individually and end in a large team, this time there will be no deaths among students as students are prohibited from killing others or crippling them. So don't even try to be cute this time Ulric, you're already on the audition blacklist, even though the headmistress would have liked you to kill that idiot, she can't hide her shares from the capital and they won't like you."
"What kind of blacklist is this?" Is it because the sudden interest in keeping students alive? Is the deadly part of the test over?"
"This blacklist is for students with good combat skills or unique talents that are problematic are likely to be troublemakers in war. It's not a good list to be on Ulric, and because you've killed another student your name is basically on the list already, the headmistress is just putting it off to see if she can figure out a way to avoid your entry on the list, so don't get into trouble and have it performed well in the rest of the test, so the director will have an easier time preventing her name from being blacklisted."
"Cool, I think I now owe the principal one, I doubt being blacklisted will help me survive the war, I'll probably end up in a suicide mission squad or a squad full of crazies."
"The cause of the change in test lethality is that most of the rubbish or useless students have already been eliminated, probably ninety percent of the students across the kingdom who are still taking the challenge are useful students for the kingdom, so expose them even more to Deadly dangers are more of a waste to the realm than having an even smaller group of elite students who will only be slightly better. In the next tests you will be tested so that all your talents are analyzed so that your implementation in the early stages of the war has a great package is that a new generation of warriors and wizards is superior to the previous ones."
"Generations that face much more challenges tend to be more successful in the rest of their lives, and with the likely vacancies that will show up in the upper echelons of the army it's good to have rookies who have been baptized by war and blood to fill these positions it's always better to have a young rookie who survived a war by actively participating in it, than an older bureaucrat who didn't shed much blood. This is not very useful for you as you said you have no interest in being a military man, but if your performance is good, getting some noble titles or rare and unique resources in the realm will be your reward, both are useful for you a level major of nobility is a great shield and is indispensable to access certain important circles of society."
"But let's get to the real reason I called you here today, you're somehow surprisingly compatible with a rare elemental fairy. The fairy that was on that crystal staff was a fairy known for her unique flame, she has ridiculous cleansing properties, her white flames are not only deadly to shadow, curse and mind element creatures, they are able to correct flaws and wounds. in your user's body."
"If you had only been that fairy your elemental seed would have absorbed these characteristics, they would be weaker than the fairies, but they would still be very useful for you, but thinking a little more about you joining the fairy, it was very good of her have escaped or you would be dead. Not even the headmistress coming in person would not be enough to save your life if you had absorbed the elemental fairy, the Eliure family would have streaked as much of the fairy's fire from your body as possible, even if that fire couldn't be absorbed by anyone else. it would be a very valuable material, this type of material is very building to get since it is difficult to get the fairy is unique with the least intelligence would destroy an elementary fairy, but your case would be the smartest way to retrieve the fairy, to catch her parts that way."
"I want you to try to feed those vials with your elemental energy, obviously the wind element in the vials that have the wind element and the others with the fire element. I want to test the reaction of the elements inside the flasks, I borrowed them from several friends and colleagues who have special fires and winds in the city, each flask has a special or different kind of fire or elemental wind, you just have to put in some elemental energy, the equivalent of a flame at the tip of your finger."
"There are several pots teacher, how many people did you get all this from?"
"Various, but I convinced them to lend me them in exchange for the test information. Every change that occurs in the flames and winds will be reported to all owners, but don't worry that your name won't be in the information you and only Guinea pig A in the report, the idiots really think I'm going to research the elements fire and wind, if I if I were to research I would research the shadow element I have, but if I didn't promise to share the research data I would never be able to bring in nearly fifty different samples, they are expensive and basically useless for me."
Over the next few hours, I injected some elemental energy into all forty-six vials, only a few of them had some reaction and not all were positive reactions. With these data recorded, the teacher discussed with me the property of each type of fire is wind and so we were able to trace the characteristics that I have in my elemental energy, I discovered the characteristics of my elementary seed is something that most people do not care, only a few artisans' care.
This is because with outside training and resources most people can alter the properties of their elemental seed to match their life goals, I think this is a bit wrong, if you were born with some unique trait, it is better to try to reinforce it. For most people who don't even have a single characteristic in their elementary seed it makes no difference, but for those lucky enough to have one like me it's better to reinforce what you already have to stand out even more.
The test results were that my fire element is compatible with characteristics like purification which is no surprise if I had no affinity with this characteristic the elemental fairy would not have been able to absorb my elemental energy directly and break free from the staff, but so am I. I have the heat characteristics which means I have a lot less difficulty concentrating heat with my fire element which is a good thing for me is it explains why I didn't have much difficulty learning this kind of trick, the last characteristic I have is that my fire element is very close to the lightning element.
Among the fires that the teacher managed to avia a so-called purple fire, it is a fire caused by the lightning element joins the fire element, the teacher may have been surprised, but I wasn't, I expected to have an affinity with the lightning element, see If I hadn't, I believe there would be no way I could have made this much progress to create it using my fire and wind elements.
As for the wind element, I couldn't verify if it had an affinity with the lightning element, it didn't even contain a pot containing a wind created with the union of the wind and lightning elements, but I found that my wind has a cutting and vibrating characteristic. Both tend to be very close, but I could identify that I have both because the pot with the razor wind, which is one of the sharpest winds of the mortal classification winds, and the pot with the spray wind, which is one of the most dangerous winds in deadly classification.
The teacher said that the spray wind was collided from a very rare level four bird, this is one of the few winds that only comes from a magical beast, with the teacher's explanations I realized that the classifications applied to elements like this are different from the one's common ranks, they are not separated by power like animal or magical beast levels, they are ranked by their complexity, the more complex the properties of a wind the higher its rank.
As for various types of wind and other elements a numerical classification would be too laborious so the mages decided to create three classifications, they are mortal, celestial and finally law. The latter was created to separate the elements that are close to the fundamental law that they are part of a fire from the law category would be a flame that is so complex that it looks more like a fragment of the fundamental law of fire than a fire with different characteristics, the teacher told me a legend that some mages are obsessed is that if a mage gets several flames from the law category and absorbs them or deciphers them, he will be closer to becoming the master of fire.
If a magician fully understood his element all fire would be his, when I went to ask if a magician like that would be able to control the fire of a god the teacher stopped me before I finished the question, he gave those certain questions didn't should be done out loud, even if you were alone. And with that we finished testing my elemental seed, I had a lot of time to record in my memo the flows of dozens of fires and winds and I believe this can help me a lot in the future.
