Chapitre 55: Secret Evaulation
As Elias and Lyra exited the auditorium, a sense of relief washed over them. Their hard work at the alchemy fair had paid off, and they were eager to celebrate their success together. However, just before they could enter a dimly lit office, the Sanguine vampire judge, Magistrate Valerius, requested that Elias wait outside, allowing him a moment to speak with Lyra privately.
Lyra stepped into the room, her eyes adjusting to the low light. She quickly recognized the familiar faces of her alchemy professor, the principal, and the other judges who had been evaluating the students' projects. They greeted her with warm smiles and congratulated her on her outstanding performance, especially considering the recent incident at the Essence Tournament that had rapidly spread throughout Ashborne City. Even the specialist Essence user who had been called in to examine Lyra's unique alchemy had expressed admiration for her remarkable abilities.
The principal leaned forward, his expression growing serious as he addressed Lyra. "Here at Ashborne Academy, we have a special program designed for exceptionally gifted students like yourself. It's a secret class, an independent study, where you'll have the opportunity to work with advanced resources and collaborate with other brilliant minds across various grade levels."
Lyra's heart raced with excitement at the prospect of this exclusive opportunity. "That sounds incredible! What would be involved in this program?" she asked eagerly.
Her alchemy professor smiled encouragingly, his eyes sparkling with pride. "As a participant in this independent study, you'll have access to state-of-the-art equipment and facilities. You'll work alongside other exceptional students, each pursuing their own groundbreaking projects and pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the field of alchemy. It's a prestigious honor, and I wholeheartedly recommend that you accept this offer."
The Magistrate Valerius interjected, his voice smooth and commanding. "I must also commend you on the creation of the Lyra Potion. It's an extraordinary achievement, showcasing your innovative thinking and exceptional skills in alchemy. The judges were thoroughly impressed by its potential applications and the level of expertise required to develop such a complex and powerful elixir."
For a moment, a flicker of sadness crossed Lyra's face as she realized that accepting this opportunity would mean spending less time in her regular alchemy class with Elias. The professor, noticing her hesitation, offered a comforting smile. "Lyra, your exceptional mind has the potential to achieve great things. We are here to provide the resources and guidance necessary to help you reach your full potential and make a lasting impact in the world of alchemy."
The principal held up a hand, his tone growing more serious. "However, it's crucial that you understand the importance of maintaining the secrecy of this program. Your participation in the independent study must remain strictly confidential. You are not to share any information about it with anyone, not even your closest friends or family. Can you agree to this condition?"
Lyra paused for a moment, considering the magnitude of the commitment she was about to make. She knew that keeping this secret from Elias and her other friends would be challenging, but the opportunity to delve deeper into the mysteries of alchemy and expand her knowledge was too valuable to pass up. With a determined nod, she replied, "Yes, I understand and agree to keep this program a secret."
The judges and professors congratulated Lyra once more as she prepared to leave the office, her heart filled with a mix of excitement and anticipation for the incredible journey that lay ahead. Though saddened by the prospect of spending less time with Elias in class, Lyra knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to explore the depths of her passion and push herself to new heights.
