Chapter 559 - 13.57
"Don\'t worry about it, I\'m the Young Master of Eau Saumont, I have the privilege! Let\'s go, Matthew!"
Despite everyone\'s scorn, Jean still dragged Matthew to follow him to do the test together. Matthew looked around to see the condescending gaze of these nobles kids, feeling guilty that he got the privilege to come with Young Master Jean.
Jean arrogantly strutted in front of the queueing nobles, followed by Wolf and Matthew behind him. He puffed his chest proudly and then said, "Please move a bit, Jean Eau Saumont wants to take the test."
The girls were angry at first, but when the Young Master of Eau Saumont stood at the stage, they were all dazed by his gorgeousness.
He was too damn gorgeous!
Some girls even squealed immedaitely, and some boys… were also enamored.
[Hehe, I know that I\'m simp-worthy. What do you think, Pupa?]
[Pupa: I think people are just tasteless.]
[Heh, brave, coming from a floating orange thing.]
[Pupa:… crap, I will get you later.]
The examiner already got the message that Young Master of Eau Saumont would come to take the test, and would be treated as priority due to his Big brother\'s position as the Archduke, and also the highest donator of La Fleur Academy.
"Good morning, Young Master Jean," the examiner bowed his head politely. He acted as if everything was normal, and then explained how the test worked.
"Young Master, this test will determine whether you\'re worthy to be in the academy or not. All you need to do is to hit that floating crystal with your magic—" the examiner pointed at the giant floating crystal ball in front of them, "The crystal will glow in any color, depends on your magic affinity. If it glows, that means you pass, if it doesn\'t show any color, then you\'re not worthy."
"Ohh, any color?" Jean asked.
"Yes, as long as it shows any color, then you passed the test."
Jean was thinking for a moment, then he smirked full of arrogance. He prepared his stance, and then snapped his fingers.
A bell was summoned on his hand, he grabbed it and started spinning his body three times before pointing the bell at the crystal.
Clink. Clink.
"With Mew Mew Strawberry\'s power! Ribbon Strawberrryyyyy CHECK!"
The bell glowed in bright light and shot a light beam at the crystal. The crystal ball spun quickly after it got attacked, but it kept its plain transparent color.
…
…
The exam hall was quite for a good while, after all that flashy entrance and attack, the crystal didn\'t show any color.
[Pupa: You did your embarrassing sequence, and still failed to do a simple test. How shameful.]
[Shhh, it\'s starting. Just wait.]
The examiner scratched his head, based on what Elder Magus said, Young Master Jean is very talented, but why didn\'t the crystal ball showed any color?
He wanted to declare that Jean had failed, but he didn\'t dare to do it, afraid of Archduke Maximillien\'s wrath, so he reworded it,
"I—It seems there has been a slight mistake, I will talk with Elder Magus after this. Young Master, please step aside—"
"Just look at the crystal ball," Jean said.
"Huh?" The examiner darted his eyes at the crystal ball, it kept on spinning on and on until a bright light came out of the crystal ball. It was red, then green, then yellow, purple, pink and all colors possible!
In the end, the crystal ball kept spinning and floated high up, turning into a giant disco ball for everyone to see.
The students gazed in awe, they never saw something so beautiful, even the examiner was also stunned by the view.
Naturally, one person could only have one color that showed his magic affinity. But with this…. the examiner thought that Young Master Jean might\'ve owned all the magic affinity ever recorded.
[Told you, it\'ll be fantastic~]
[Pupa: Hmph! All you did is stealing all the magic from the handsome students in this hall, and collect it together in that bell, right? You\'re basically using your hoe magic again.]
[Ish, why do you sound so pessimistic? At least Hoe magic got me admitted to this academy!]
The giant crystal ball slowly descended, returning to its original position. The students were all clapping to celebrate such amazing talent, because it was really one of a million.
"E—Excellent! Young Master Jean, this is excellent!" the Examiner praised sincerely. "But I\'m not sure what kind of magic you have. I will talk about this with Elder Magus later. Congratulations, Young Master Jean, you\'re now La Fleur Academy\'s student."
The Examiner handed an academy badge for Jean. Jean accepted it happily and showed to it Matthew and Wolf.
"Guys, look! I got my real Academy badge! Not the fake one like what my brother used to give me!"
Wolf and Matthew complimented Young Master Jean for passing the test, although they already knew it was impossible for Jean to fail it, his talent was just enormous.
"Okay, Young Master, did you bring any friend here to test?" The Examiner asked.
"Ah, yes! I bring two!" Jean grabbed Matthew and Wolf\'s hand side by side, and then dragged them to the stage. "This one is Wolf, and this one is Matthew! Please give them a proper test!"
The Examiner nodded, he glanced at Wolf and said, "Okay, you first. Just attack the crystal ball with your magic."
Wolf was nervous as he looked around, searching for his comfort, Young Master Jean. He wasn\'t used to stand in front of so many people, to be the center of attention.
His mind blanked out when he saw no sign of Young Master Jean from the previous position.
He was dazed for a good while due to nervousness, until he heard his Young Master calling him from the audience stage, "It\'s okay, Wolf! Just attack that crystal! Don\'t be afraid that you\'ll break things, I\'m rich, I can help to cover the damage!"
"B—But…" Wolf was stroll reluctant, afraid that he would burden his Master.
"Just imagine that crystal ball is someone who wants to hurt me—"
The moment Young Master Jean said that, Wolf\'s eyes turned sharp immediately. He gazed at the crystal ball full of hatred as if he was staring at an enemy who was ready to attack his beloved Young Master Jean.
He gritted his teeth, and he opened his palm.
Heat started regulating around his palm, from a regular heat, Wolf\'s hand turned red and a ball of flame was summoned on his palm. The air around the exam hall also became hotter, as if they were in the middle of a dessert.
"STAY AWAY FROM MY MASTER!" Wolf yelled out loud, scaring everyone in the room. He dashed and clenched his fist.
Wolf punched the crystal ball with his fire fist, and the crystal ball showed bright red color, showing Wolf\'s extreme magic affinity with fire.
…
…
Everyone was still stunned as Wolf returned to his Young master shyly, "Um… Young Master… Wolf… Wolf did good?" He asked his Master.
Jean patted Wolf\'s shoulder and nodded, "You did great, Wolf!"
CRACK!
Everyone looked at the giant crystal ball who was still shining bright with red color and the crystal cracked in half before exploding into pieces.
