The teachers stared at the chimera as it disintegrated, and one of them sighed. "Tempo! It might be too late, but you pass. Welcome to the University of the Arts."
"Really? I thought you said I failed?!" Tempo stared at them with a smile. "A change of heart?!"
"No, you killed the chimera so you pass." Another teacher stared at him. "This whole test was made to see if you can survive the monster classes. There are multiple courses like that where you'll be sent to the forest to observe or study monsters' behavior, search for material, or test dangerous spells. We don't want the students to die alone in the wilderness."
"I see…" Arad stared at them.
"Mira and Aella didn't test." A teacher stared at him, "Make sure you protect them. We'll, we'll be sending you with them all the time, so get ready for extra lessons and classes."
"Don't worry about that." Arad waved his hand. "I can handle it."
