Chapter 265 265 - Accuracy

Then, everyone who had registered for the entrance exam of the Magic Academy started following Lady Sophia, the person who had just been on stage.

Strangely enough, they were going in the direction in which they had come in, it seemed that they would be going outside for the first part of this entrance exam.

"Aiden," someone murmured not too far away from him.

Aiden didn't know why but he recognized the voice instantly which meant that it could only belong to one person and one person only, Evelynn.

She was the sole person he had talked to after all.

So, when he heard her voice he turned in her direction and noticed that she was getting closer to him.

"So, how was it?"

That was the first question that she asked, however, the only purpose that it served was to confuse Aiden even more.

'How was what? What is she talking about?'

Aiden wasn't sure if she was talking about the ceremony with the curtains opening or something, what she had asked was simply way too vague.

That's why Aiden got closer to her and whispered something in her ear.

"What are you talking about?"

Then, her response truly surprised him this time as he hadn't expected such a possibility.

"The people that you were seated with, how were they?"

"Um, they were weird I guess," Aiden answered as he remembered them mocking him for absolutely no reason.

They had grasped every opportunity to laugh at him and it had kind of pissed Aiden off.

However, he didn't make a big deal out of it, not wanting to create too many enemies.

"Huh, they were?" she replied, visibly confused by his response.

'I don't even know who they are, but if she's asking about it, they are probably impressive.'

She seemed to be idolizing them which was why when he compared this behaviour with the one that she had earlier when speaking with him alone.

"Yeah, they were kind of bitchy if I'm being honest."

"Are you sure? What did they say to you?"

However, Aiden didn't want to answer this question as he instead asked her another one which wasn't even related to that subject.

"Who even are they?" he finally asked, wanting to know.

He knew that they were important, however, he hadn't been able to guess their identity as he knew nothing about this place.

"You don't know who they are? From what sort of place are you even coming from," mumbled Evelynn as she simply couldn't believe what she was hearing at the moment.n//OveLbIn

It simply made no sense that he ignored the identity of the people that whom he was seated next to.

Well, it might be possible, but if he heard of their last name and still ignored who they were then it would create a problem.

'Well, I'm not even from this world,' Aiden thought as he heard her asking where he came from.

He made sure not to say it out loud, but it was still the truth, he wasn't even from this world in the first place.

Seeing that Aiden wouldn't answer what she had just said, she continued talking about those people which seemed oh so important in her eyes.

However, from Aiden's point of view, they were just like any people that he had seen ever since coming here.

Sure, they were kind of bitchy mocking him without even knowing him, however, they didn't seem too bad.

"Well, I guess I'll tell you if you don't know who they are, this way you won't try and get in trouble with them while you're enrolling in the academy."

'Well, I'll only stay here for a month, so I doubt that I'll be making enemies. All I want to do is learn from the best,' Aiden thought as he knew that his stay at the Magic Academy would be a short one, a really short one.

He didn't know the usual duration, but he knew that it would at least be years just like any normal school.

"They are all from elite families, so most people will try to get close to them while in the academy. However, seeing how they are currently looking at you, I guess you didn't make a good impression, huh?" said Evelynn, as she glanced at the people who were seated right beside Aiden earlier.

They were all looking at Aiden, were they interested, were they mad at him?

Aiden had absolutely no idea, however, he remembered their faces when he had mentioned that he had a Gold Ranked Core.

They had seemed all shocked and they started acting differently as if respecting him.

Then, as Evelynn was about to continue talking about those guys, Lady Sophia and the group which was walking in front of Aiden all stopped without giving any signs of it.

'Oh, seems like it's time for the first part of this exam,' Aiden thought as he knew that he didn't have a lot of chance of reaching the next part.

He didn't even know how to use magic, so how would he be able to complete this trial?

'Well, I guess I'll have no other choice but to look at how the other participants do it.'

"Alright everyone, please come closer," shouted Lady Sophia as everyone followed her order getting closer to her.

"I will now explain how this accuracy challenge will work."

"Basically, there will be many targets in front of you appearing. The goal will be to hit all of them with the spell of your choice. It can be a fireball, an icicle, or whatever spell you want. Those who miss two targets will fail the entrance exam and won't enter the academy."

The last sentence that she had just pronounced seemed to serve its purpose as everyone suddenly felt the pressure of succeeding in the entrance exam.

They all knew that it wouldn't be easy to get into the academy, however, now that they were living it, it was different.

They knew that if they made the slightest mistake, they wouldn't be getting in.
