บท 178: The New Mage

The burly Evaluation officer patted Skullius' shoulder with a pride, awaiting his response.

"I wanted to be evaluated just like everyone else," Skullius replied.

"Heh! Good, good! That's the right attitude! I even got the sense that you are quite experienced in battle. Restricting my movements before going in to attack. You're quite sturdy for an Energy Former too. I must admit, if I wasn't me, I probably would have been killed while still trying to figure out what was going on. Haha! Now tell me. What is that darkness and that flash of compressed mana that hit me?"

Skullius smiled coyly as he kicked away the sword he had used to almost slash the Evaluation officer's head.

Ah~. Slashing. A job that Skullius could only enjoy in his Discount Human form.

The tactic he had used was something he had formed after the man had told him about the evaluation.
