The ride to the academy was peaceful as I was the only one in the carriage, I opened the window slightly and looked at the city, the city was divided into two parts and I still hadn't been to the other part.
The city was divided into the upper part and lower part, where the nobles lived and where the commoners lived, unless you were a male or an extremely powerful female, living in the lower part of the city was terrible.
If this was my world, most of the girls in the lower part would probably sell their bodies for money and make enough, but this wasn't the earth I know, there were brothels but they had male attendants and female customers, the complete opposite of my world.
Males didn't do hard labor so all the difficult jobs like farming, building houses, crafting, blacksmithing, and others were all done by females, only a few males would be interested in jobs like that, so I'll make it a goal to visit the lower part of the city.
Since this was going to be a sword assessment test I wasn't worried at all, I trained with my dad so I don't have anything to worry about from magic knights when it comes to sword fighting.
The carriage arrived at the academy and I could already see a few students walking in, all of them were females, it was still surprising for me to look everywhere and see females.
"You can go back, I don't know when I'll be done, I'll contact you with the communication crystal when I'm done," I said to the rider.
"Okay, I'll be waiting, I wish you good luck but I suppose you won't need it since you are definitely going to pass" the rider spoke.
"Bye, I hope it doesn't take long" I mumbled as I walked towards the gate, if the test doesn't take long this was going to be my chance to visit the lower part of the city.
The gates of the academy were opened and this time the students were heading directly through a path, I followed them and we finally arrived at a training ground.
All the students formed a circle and two instructors were in the middle of the circle along with a boy with blond hair whom all the girls in front were staring at, I was at the back so none of the girls were staring at me for a change.
"Form three lines immediately" one of the instructors shouted, both of them were females, not surprising.
I quickly moved backward so I would be at the back of the line, some of the girls were now staring at me as most of them turned around to arrange themselves in a line.
"There's a boy, and he's really handsome, I think he's the son of a noble but I've never seen him before"
"You can't possibly know all the sons of all the noble families"
"If he's here that means he's going to be in our class, I'm going to pass, definitely"
I faced down as I listened to the girls mumbling amongst themselves, most of them didn't even know the meaning of mumbling as I could clearly hear what they were saying.
"Students here are over 200, so we are definitely going to cut you down to size, since we already have a large number of mages, we'll need fewer knights so bad luck for you guys, we'll take 100 of the best students and the rest can try their luck next year" the instructor spoke
'Only 100, then more than half of the people here are going to fail, how would they even determine the strongest' I wondered as I stood at the back of the line.
"We are going to use magic to check your abilities, if you are strong enough, then you pass, if you are average then you'll face Gabriel here in a one on one battle and we'll evaluate your skills, and if you are weak, you get disqualified immediately, let's gets started"
Ohh, so that's how, I didn't expect a person to be able to tell how strong someone is, but with magic almost everything is possible, I stood at the back of my line when the first girls stepped up and was told to move to the left side.
She wasn't told if she passed or failed, and so many others were evaluated and moved to either the left or right side, and soon the girl in front of me was being tested leaving me as the last person.
Since the test started, none of the students had been asked to fight the boy so I guess there was a clear difference and finally it reached my turn and I stood in front of the instructor.
The instructor in front of me hasn't spoken a word since we came here, even after checking she just points a direction and the student moved and she was damn beautiful.
Not as beautiful as my mom, I haven't seen a lady as beautiful as my mom but she was beautiful, she had brown hair that reached all the way to her waist and wore clothes that completely covered her body without leaving a single exposed skin except her hands, foot, and face.
Not that I'm against it, but it's strange to see someone like that.
I stood in front of her waiting for her to point a direction for me but she seemed confused, she stared at me for some seconds till I received a system message.
[Ability check blocked]
'Huh! Wait... don't block it, allow' I mumbled under my breath but nothing happened.
She looked at me and pointed to the right side.
"Wait...you didn't check my ability" I spoke.
"How did you know?" She asked.
