Magical Love: Learn To Love In Another World

Chapter 59: Guild Test Part Three



Marsil looked at the large stone in front of her and took a deep breath. She then took the bow off her back and got into a shooting stance. After muttering a few words that I could not understand, she pulled back on the bowstring. At first, I was somewhat confused since she had not notched an arrow to the string but quickly my confusion was answered when a bluish white arrow formed in her hands. She took aim and then released the bowstring sending the arrow flying at the stone. But instead of hitting the stone a magic circle appeared and dispelled the arrow into particles of light. 

"Eight hundred and sixty three magic power." Ray suddenly announced. He nodded his head to Marsil with an approving look. 

As the test continued, I saw that many were not very good with magic. There was even one person who had zero magic power. It was now time for Sam to take his test. Sam had a serious look on his face as he walked up to the stone. He waved his hands out in front of him while at the same time chanting: "Oh flames of hell come to me and ignite thy enemy in front of me! Flame Pillar!" 

A large magic circle formed at the bottom of the stone and not even a second later a pillar of fire shot up towards the sky. Sam did not wait long before waving his hand dispelling the magic he had cast. 

"One thousand five hundred magic power! Not bad, not bad, young man." Ray was quite surprised to see how powerful this young boy was with his magic. The look on his face told it all. I myself felt bad that the young boy came from a poor family otherwise he would be nurtured well for his talents.

Sam walked back with a big smile on his face. You could tell he was proud of himself. But with this test complete, Able was up next. He did not even wait for Ray to say next as he immediately walked up to the stone and cast a basic fireball at it. Ray was a bit disappointed seeing the fireball but his eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw it hit and the reading that came after.

*Boom!

All the other magic attacks made no sound but this one exploded on contact with the magic circle that formed before finally being dispelled. "Three thousand six hundred magic power." 

Able nodded and walked back towards me. He leaned over and said: "Just give it your all, no need to hold back." 

Hearing this I nodded to him and smiled before walking forward. But I had different plans than what I originally had decided to do. I was originally going to do a fireball like Able but I got interested in the magic circle that formed when a spell hit the stone. I wondered if it was possible to destroy the magic circle and hit the stone behind it. With this thought in mind, I could only think of something that could pierce through solid objects if given enough speed but at the same time still do a lot of damage. The more I pondered the more I came up with an image in my head. I decided I would compress a fireball and shape it like a needle. With a flick of my fingers, a thin needle shaped fireball appeared at the tip of my finger. It was not big but it was turning a pure white due to being compressed causing the heat of the flames to increase. Once I felt it was finished I waved my hand sending this thin needle towards the large stone. 

*Kaboom!

Heat and wind swept past me bringing along with it dirt and rubble as I quickly formed a barrier in front of me. Once the dust cleared, what laid in front of me was a small crater that was about a meter deep where the large stone once stood. The stone itself had been completely destroyed and laid in shards spread out across the ground. Seeing this, I began to sweat immediately. I was not sure if I was going to get in trouble and need to compensate for the stone I destroyed. I turned and looked at Ray who was looking at where the stone used to be with his mouth wide open and his jaw almost hitting the ground. It took him almost a full minute to recompose himself as he looked at me with a bit of fear in his eyes. 

"Ahem… Ummm… You pass the test..." I guess since I destroyed it he couldn't tell me how strong the attack was... But everyone else's gaze seemed as if they were looking at a monster. This made me feel a bit uncomfortable. I guess Able sensed this since he walked over to me and reached out to hold my hand. Feeling the warmth of his hand in mine made me feel much better. 

"You still amaze me every time I see you cast magic. Even your master, Great Magus Felix seems inferior to you." Able said loudly. I guess he did this to tell everyone I was being taught by the best mage in the entire kingdom. Hearing this made those around me expressions grow less fearful and more understanding which allowed me to let out a sigh of relief. I know power is everything in this world but I do not want to be looked at as if I was some kind of monster. Luckily I had Able at my side who stood up for me. 

I stood on my tiptoes and gave Able a kiss on the cheek as I whispered: "Thank you." 

Able smiled foolishly which was rather cute. But when he was about to say something, Ray suddenly cut in. "Ahem… The last test is a one on one battle with yours truly." Ray announced. "You can go all out and use every method you can think of to attack. Ahh, except you two. You can only use your swords, no magic." Ray pointed at me and Able. His cheeks were slightly red. I guess he was embarrassed to have to tell two young kids many years younger than him to not attack at full strength. Hearing his words, me and Able nodded our heads which Ray nodded back in response. "Marsil, you are up first as usual."
