Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Exams

Emilia carried me to my home. I got control over a few body parts and that was it I guess I got to wait for my energy to fill up.

[Energy:8/23]

"So what are you doing here?" I started the conversation with a question since I was feeling awkward.

She seemed puzzled at first before replied with a smile, "I was just training my swordsmanship and after that I wanted to take stroll, and that's when I saw you."

I nodded and looked away, "Do you know where I live?" I asked. "Nope." I was stunned when I heard her, "Then where are you taking me to?" I asked.

"To the... honestly I have no idea..." She said with a smile. "I think I can walk again, excuse me." I got of her back and started to limp back home.

"So far!??" I grunted when I realized where I am, I turned to see Emilia and I got her whistling with an innocent expression.

I limped to her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

She looked at me like I was some sort of dumbass and said, "Waiting for my cab."

I slammed my palm onto my face and used my other hand to remove my phone from my pocket. Before I could even call a cab Emilia said,

"Don't worry, I will take care of it,"

I smiled and said nothing. I occupied myself with learning the system interface better. We waited until a cab finally came to pick us. The drive was uneventful as me and Emilia didn't speak a word. But the silence was broken when she said,

"So, will you take part in the exams?" She asked.

"Which exams?" I asked back.

Emilia looked at me with a confusing look, "So you don't know the High School Of Power entrance exams?"

Then it hit me, High School Of Power entrance exams were the entrance exams were hosted by the High School Of Power! They were in the top 10 High school rankings. Being there not only grants you the title of "genius" but you may be scouted by rich and influential families!

"Yes!" I replied honestly. I knew my mom had been working very had to ensure that I had a decent life but, I also want her to live in luxury because she deserves it.

The cab was once again quiet so I got back to the interface. But, it then ended by the driver, "Say, you young ones are Power core users or let me say... Evolvers right?"

I nodded honestly, and so did Emilia. "So what level are you?" He asked again. "Level one's." Emilia answered this time but her aura changed.

The cab driver had a evil grin on his face, "Well then this makes it easier..." he muttered but we could still hear it. The cab driver was driving away from home but I didn't realize it because I was intrigued by the system interface.

SCREEEEECH!

The car made a complete stop. My head slammed onto the front seat, it seemed to be bleeding a little. I wiped my blood at looked around.

The cab driver got out and yelled, "COME OUT!" Emilia did as she was told and so did I. I was a bit scared of what will happen. That was so because I had never experienced something like this before.

I looked at the cab driver he had a badge and it wrote, [Zeke]. So I figured it was his name. We were stranded on the road. I looked up and it was dark... the moonlight fell on us.

Zeke looked at as and said, "Give me all your belongings, or even better... Your lives!" He roared as he charged at us.

Emilia looked calm, she moved her hands swiftly and elegantly and a sword appeared before her. It had a golden hilt and a silver blade. The scabbard was white with golden engravings. The sword was 3 inches in diameter and 24 inches in length.

I was amazed, it took her this early to learn her abilities! 'So this is a genius...' I gulped inwardly.

Emilia stayed still, it was obvious Zeke will have a power core since he was threatening us. But, his power core was unknown.

Zeke's patience ran out and he charged for... Me! I was prepared but I didn't know how to use my power core decently so I just said, "Alter-Transform!" I touched the ground with my feet with power, the ground started to soften, slowly but surely, it was weakening.

Zeke charged at me and his hands turned it claws! I bent my back in a ninety degree format and performed a backflip, perfectly evading his horizontal slash.

"Hmm... this is a bit fun!" I was excited. I never really had real battles, and this was exhilarating!

My energy was a bit full, and I decided to do a final attack. "Alter-Decay!" I moved in to touch Zeke's chest but I missed. And Zeke was open, Emilia took the chance to stab him in the stomach and I decayed his chest.

Emilia slashed her sword getting rid of all the blood, "Good work," She said. It was nothing in my mind. I stayed silent and walked away, "Should we call a cab?" I suggested, "Noo!" Emilia said.
