Then, two blue fluorescent lights appeared on Henney's fingertips, swaying gently in the air.
A blue array gradually enveloped the office, slowly enveloping the two of them.
...
Two beams of blue fluorescence descended from the sky and appeared inside the math olympiad hall.
The vast arcane hall was completely empty at this moment; apart from the two of them, there wasn't a soul in sight.
Hene pulled Saphiros into a room inside the Arcane Hall.
Inside the room, a transparent crystal pillar stands quietly in the center.
The Beginning of Magic
Hene looked at it and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
This is a magical artifact personally crafted by Dean Rachel, a member of parliament, and can be used to identify a person's specific magical talent.
It was here that Heni was initially diagnosed as having no magical talent.
If it weren't for Professor Victor, she wouldn't have been able to become a normal mage.
Hene shook her head, trying to stop herself from reminiscing about the past, and urged Saphiros on.
"Put your hand on it."
Saphiros obediently followed Heni's orders and slowly placed her hand on it.
Several wisps of fluorescence, like flowing water droplets, began to merge together within the crystal.
Soon, the magic power, which resembled water droplets, began to spread after merging, drawing out three bright rays of light on the surface of the crystal.
Hene stared at the crystal, frozen in place.
"Demonic Power - Stage Three!"
Generally speaking, the [Beginning of Magic] divides a person's talent into ten levels.
The number of beams of light emitted by the crystal will vary depending on the stage of its magic.
Saphiros's talent is mediocre, even somewhat low.
But soon, the Beginning of Magic became unstable, and the three pillars of light merged again and spread outwards once more.
This time, however, there were five beams of light.
But this time it didn't last long either, and they reorganized again.
Suddenly, eight beams of light appeared on the surface of the crystal.
Hennie gasped upon seeing the scene before her.
Before she could even marvel, the eight beams of light recombine, and finally the radiance gradually dissipates, leaving the entire crystal dull and lifeless.
Now even Henney couldn't understand it.
Is he talented or not?
Then, the Beginning of Magic fell completely silent.
Hene placed her hand on it, but there wasn't even a ripple.
"It's... malfunctioning?"
This was the first time Hene had encountered such a situation, and she was completely stunned.
She scratched her head, somewhat embarrassed.
Because she was afraid of upsetting Saphiros, Henney took the initiative to comfort her.
"Actually, magical talent doesn't mean anything. I was even judged to have no magical talent."
"In the end, I still became a mage, didn't I?"
Seeing that Saphiros remained expressionless, Henney hurriedly said:
"Well, if you can't enroll, then I'll apply to the dean to have you become my teaching assistant!"
In this way, Saphiros at least had a job in the capital.
They wouldn't be so illiterate and foolish as to be easily fooled by some people in the capital.
Safiros slowly turned her head and looked at Henney.
What is a teaching assistant?
"Hmm... just stay by my side and do some odd jobs, of course I won't make you too tired."
Hene smiled and explained to Sephiroth, then, remembering Sephiroth's immense destructive power, quickly added a joking remark.
"Maybe I'll need you to protect me."
Upon hearing this, Saphiros trembled slightly.
The command words 'follow' and 'protect' were detected.
[Detection Target—]
Saphiros's green snake eyes contracted repeatedly, as if confirming something.
[Whitelist Character - Henney]
[Command - Execution]
She stared blankly at Henne and nodded.
"I see."
"Wow, that was spoken so fluently, not bad at all."
Hene smiled and patted her shoulder, continuing:
"Next, let's go explore other places."
She left the Arcane Hall with Saphiros, who followed closely behind her.
After wandering around for a while, the two arrived at the huge pit that was surrounded by the academy.
This monumental pit has existed since the war against the demons.
After several months, the pit was almost completely filled with rainwater, turning into a natural lake.
Hene stood there, a flash of memories in her eyes.
Every time she comes here, she is deeply moved.
Professor Victor is right here.
She was saved from the clutches of the devil.
Soon, Henney refocused her gaze and smiled as she explained to Saphiros behind her.
"This is where the academy's chief professor, Victor Clement, defeated the demon; it's very significant."
Saphiros's gaze was fixed on the large pit, while her serpentine eyes kept scanning the lake.
[Preliminary Assessment - Fourth-Tier War Magic]
[User – Victor Clavner]
"Recording complete."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
Just as Heni opened her mouth to ask a question, a voice suddenly rang out beside her:
"The holy land where the demon was defeated..."
She turned around, and a distinguished-looking silver-haired man was walking towards her.
Owesser Thor squinted as he met Henne's gaze.
“I’m also very interested in demons, miss.”
Could you tell me about it?
