[Welcome Candidates to the 547th annual application for the Defense Academy] The sound echoed in the distance.
The applicants did not even believe how big the place was, it was something that in their imagination should only exist in the capital city.
[As you may know we are here to awaken the abilities of all citizens who turned sixteen in this last cycle, when your number is displayed in the monitor proceed to the closest station]
At this moment Ewan felt a small burning sensation in his hand, where the number 342 appeared as if it was applied as a rune. He noticed everyone around him also had numbers that were between 1 and 1000.
The floor started being divided by light forming zones with 1000 applicants in each and a station in the middle. The scene was spectacular, hundreds of stations lit up and had monitors on the top with the number 1 being displayed.
A girl that stood close to Ewan had the number one in her hand and moved to the station.
[Physical Ability, Grade C-]
A circle of teleportation glowed in the feet of the girl, and she disappeared. The displayed number now was 2.
[Elemental Ability, Grade D]
[Summoning Ability, Grade B+]
People were being teleported one after another after the announcement of their ability and rating.
"What do you think you're going to get?" Said a girl while looking at Ewan.
"I don't really care" He responded while keeping his eyes at the displayed number.
[334]
"Come on, this is so boring, I don't know anyone here so please just talk to me already"
Ewan looked at her with impatience in his eyes "Okay, I think Undefined would be nice"
The girl and many others around started to laugh slightly at the statement
"The odds for that are nonexistent, there have been no new categories for years now"
[342]
He just looked at her and smiled while moving to the station.
Getting in front of the station he opens his hand and puts it on the side of the machine
[Undefined Ability, Grade F-]
Everyone looked at him with their mouths wide open, not only because Undefined Abilities were basically nonexistent, but because there was no F- to ever be recorded in existence, there was a grade below the lowest grade.
"Well, guess I asked for it" Ewan said ironically while disappearing in the teleportation circle.
