Warlock of The Magus World (FanFiction)

Chapter 4

"Now, follow me into the campgrounds, and choose an academy. Remember, you may check on all the various academies, but once you have signed a contract to join one, you must not renege! Anyone who disobeys will be hung to death at the gate of the camp!"

Crow's frosty words made the acolytes hearts turn cold.

"Haha! Crow! You guys are pretty late today!" A voice sounded, and a fatty walked out from the camp grounds. He too was wearing a white robe, and he greeted: "Don't scare these adorable newbies!"

"There were some difficulties along the way!" Crow explained.

.....

After the 'Warm' Welcome in the Death Beach, a guy named Jevon brought Leylin and the rest, a total of 40 odd people, into the middle of the camp grounds.

Leylin didn't try any funny business, he already know A. I. Chip Right now doesn't have the ability to scan any thing here.

He had used the A. I. Chip to extract all the useful information he had about the Novel , although there is difference between reading and Seeing for yourself, He has Garner all the Information to get a firm grasp of the overall situation.

He took the form, and quickly filled it and got ready to take aptitude test.

Leylin had a borish face, 'I already know about the results, but I have to follow the drill '.Leylin finished writing, he picked up the sheepskin paper and entered the white tent.

"Come over!" An ancient voice sounded.

It was very spacious inside the tent, and there was only a white-haired old lady sitting on a black chair and a crystal ball which rested on a table.

"Hello!" Leylin greeted the witch. Before she can ask for it, Leylin already showed the form to her.

"Leylin huh? Place your hands on the crystal ball!"

Leylin followed the witch's instructions and placed both of his hands on the crystal ball.

A strange tactile feeling was transmitted from the tip of his fingers.

Unlike Novel, Leylin didn't fell an intense headache, but just a mild pain . ' Probably because my Soul strength increased'

Along with the start of his headache, the crystal ball in front of Leylin also emitted a faint glow. Leylin felt like he can take more , still after hearing the next line from the witch he decided otherwise.

"Very good! Don't let go! The witch stared attentively at the crystal ball.

The crystal ball in Leylin's hands grew brighter,

"No! No more!"

Leylin clenched his teeth, and left the Crystal ball before the Witch may suspect something.

"Okay! So you are at this level?" The witch nodded her head. She took out a goose feather pen and scribbled on Leylin's form.

"We have categorised the aptitude of the acolytes into five grades, with the first grade as the worst and the fifth grade as the best. You are in the fourth grade, a high ranked grade!"

The witch said as she turned a ring on her hand and made a strange mark on the sheepskin, which had been shining brightly with light.

"My examination here is over, you go on behind me! Next!"

Leylin followed suit , but his mind were in a scribble, ' 4th Grade, but how this cannot be because of the mysterious energy. Even if it can increases Aptitude surely it will take an enormous amount of it. Leylin had only third grade, but mine is higher but how? '

Leylin was legitimately Confused, He cannot think how this can be the case. He walked into the next camp expressing his gratitude to the Witch.

"Fourth grade? Good !" The white-bearded old geezer stroked his chin, "Alright! Now to test for elemental affinity!"

The old geezer knocked on the tabletop and it split open, and a black basin rose from the centre.

This water basin was not smooth. It seemed to be made of stone, and there was a kind of liquid metal flowing inside that resembled mercury.

"Carefully look into the water!" The old geezer's voice sounded, seemingly carrying an authoritative tone.

Leylin could not help but worry if his elemental affinity is also different, It can be worrisome, 'If I have other affinity I will have to enter another Academy and most importantly , My Synchronization with Warlock Inheritance will be a lower grade than Feng Meng. '

Leylin didn't want to walk a Unknown path, not until he became a Rank 1 Magus, He may have the Knowledge of how things are going to progress but he doesn't have Feng Meng memories In his life as Leylin. A different Academy will mean a different setting and his advantage of future knowledge will be worth nothing there.

"Now, tell me, what do you see?"

Leylin's eyes were a little glazed over, "Shadows, and a black coloured whirlpool! And there are red spots near the outer circumference!"

"Anything else?"

"There are also green specks of light in the surrounding area!"

"Is there a lot of green?"

"Not very much!"

"Okay!" The old geezer snapped his fingers, and Leylin suddenly came back to his senses, "What happened to me!".Leylin has no knowledge of what transpired while being gazed, now only this geezer can tell him about his future.

"Your test is already over! In the aspect of elemental affinities, you have the highest affinity with the Dark and Shadow elements, after that is the Fire element, and you also have a bit of affinity with the Plant element!"

As the old geezer spoke, he rapidly filled in the form and added his handprint.

The old geezer handed the form back to Leylin, "Alright! Your test is over. Walk out from the back entrance and start choosing your academy!"

Leylin bowed, and then left the tent.

As he lifted the canopy at the back, a ray of sunlight came shining down.

'Now, i am totally confused, I have A. I. Chip, when I clearly should not have one, I have a mysterious Devour ability, Grade 4 Aptitude and same elements as Original Leylin, It like someone mysteriously picked out the best abilities and gave it to me '.

Leylin walked glazed out, suddenly George pop out, Seeing him Leylin decided to not think about it, It's useless for now, his only concern should be power. In the future when he will have sufficient abilities, he can search for these answer himself.

"Hey! Leylin!" George's voice rang beside his ears, "You finished your aptitude test too?"

George's voice travelled over.

"Yeah!" Leylin nodded his head.

"I have completed it too, hehe! I, this young master, am a genius with a fourth-grade aptitude!" George laughed loudly, wearing an excessively smug expression!

"Do you think you are the only one?" Leylin asked, Waving his sheepskin paper.

They talked a little mosty George telling him about Aptitude and Elemental Affinity, lastly about the Black Robed Knights strange behavior and some lewd shit , Leylin didn't paid much attention to him.

"I understand now. Let's go and choose our academy!"

"This! My father has already chosen for me, I'll be attending the Ennea Ivory Ring Tower. My family has a relationship with one of the senior Magi inside...Why don't you come with me too!" George gave an invitation.

"No! I wish to walk and look around more!" Leylin declined politely.

"Alright then, I am going to carry out the procedures. You can come to the area for the Ennea Ivory Ring Tower to look for me!" George waved his hands and squeezed into the crowd.

Leylin strolled aimlessly around the camp and took a look, saw some of the academy names, and memorised them, "Ennea Ivory Ring Tower, Mercifura Academy, Wetland Gardens..."

Leylin walked for about 10 minutes and finally reached his destination, "The Abyssal Bone Forest Academy welcomes you!" These big words were all written in red and dripping blood, which scared many of the surrounding acolytes away.

'It's quite something see it for yourself' Leylin shook his head and walked into the tent of white bones.

As he entered, a cold aura that reeked of blood engulfed Leylin and made his hair stand on ends.

"He he he...After waiting for long, finally, one comes!"

Leylin walked carefully as to not stand on his limb. Leylin talked with Dorotte and sold his Broken Artifact , gaining the card from him.

Going out he met many other students, After knowing of his fourth Grade aptitude they become ambient and tried to create friendship with him, Leylin just politely greeted them and minded his own business. He was waiting to ride to The Southern coast. He already has a fine grasp of what's what, So he didn't need anything from them and hence no question asked.

Soon George and his other companion from the journey left one by one on their Ships. Leylin knew their ship will come later , so he enjoyed the feast offered in the night and mostly kept to himself.

Next Morning, leylin started to gaze over the ocean fully aware of the horrors, it entails. Leylin delved into his subconsciousness and retrieved his body statistics.

[Leylin Farlier. Strength: 2.2, Agility: 2.4, Vitality: 2.7, Status: Healthy ]

With the help of Mysterious Energy, he somehow broke the bottleneck and reached Preparatory knights status. His strength has already surpassed that of Newly Minted Preparatory Knights but still he will be fish food in this place. ' I must reach the peak and look down on all of this Magus world, I will never be content with being weak '
