Surou Delche Bellcephora, the second prince of the Bellcephora kingdom spent his morning in the back of the Academy building where the Academy's staff set up the equipment necessary for the proper magic examination.
He, of course, didn't just watch them work, he stayed to observe every first-year student undertaking the examination.
Everyone was nervous – both the teachers and the students – magic examination should not happen so soon and definitely not all of a sudden. Usually, the preparations would last a week before everything was ready.
Nonetheless, for the second prince, it was the prime occasion to put his face out there.
After all, the queen mother would always put Horeo up front often straight up ignoring him, Surou, the child of the first queen born after she was sent away from the royal castle. There was never a chance for the younger boy to compete against his brother on equal footing.
