章節 4: The Magic Knights entrance exam
Otto had been training hard these past few months, he was now 16 and be believed he was finally ready. His main strengths included his physical strength and his very spammable teleportation spell. And in case everything else went wrong he had an ace up his sleeve.
"My son, you have grown into a wonderful man. Your magic has grown and you have matured. When you leave don't forget to come visit me. And while your gone make me and your father proud. But I also wanted to tell you, I have a present for you."
"Oh mom thanks I promise I will. But what kind of present do you have in mind?"
"Well you father left something for you after he died." He handed him a broomstick. "He said to give this to you when you left to go take the magic knights exam. He also left you this note.
Otto quickly opened the note.
Otto my dear son if you are reading this it means that I didn't make it to your big day I'm sorry for the pain you must have gone through, I hope I died protecting what I care about. You, your mom, and the great clover kingdom.this is my broomstick that I have used for countless missions. This is a tool that I hope you will use to be a great mage just as I once was. I also wanted to tell you how much I love you. I never could say it enough I'm proud of you and I have high expectations for your future I know that someday you too will have the chance to protect the people you care about. Now it's time it's your chance go out into the world and show them who you are.
PS. Hug your mom before you leave for me
As Otto read this letter he started crying. Remembering when his dad came home or when he used to stay up late talking to him on the transponder. He remembered the promise he had made to his dad. 'Today I will become a magic knight just like my father was. Father I swear wherever you are I will make you proud.'
"Mom, I love you." Otto reached over and gave his mom a bear hug as the two of them shed tears. "I'll miss you mother but it's time for me to go, I'll come visit you sometime I swear." And with that Otto hopped on his new broom eyes swollen and flew off towards the capital.
Flying was an amazing experience that took some getting used to at first. But he was a smart boy and figured it out quite quickly.
Seeing the trees and the fields below him was awe inspiring wating the people work and the children play was something that any man would admire. It was a six hour walk from where he lived to the capital but by flying that distance was covered in meerly an hour.
As he flew towards the walls he saw fireworks up in the sky above the city. It was a gorgeous and well kept city. You could tell this place was important.
He reached the city and hopped off his broomstick. He was too early so he decided he was going to look through the markets.
"Get your fried bore hide right here folks."
"Fresh salmon coming strait from the southern ocean"
"All cloths items are 15% off for today only."
The merchants were busy because today was the Magic knights entrance exam. An event that attracted all sorts of new people to the capital. He was trying to decide what he wanted to do first when someone started shouting.
"OH MY GOD THEY HAVE EVERYTHING HERE YUNO." A short stack with spiky grey hair and a black and red bandana was coming through the stalls taking everything the merchants were selling.
"Asta we don't have time for you to be fooling around, we still have to figure out where the entrance exam is." A tall boy with green eyes and black hair who was apparently traveling with this child quickly scolded him.
"I know but this grilled violet snake was just too good to pass up on."
"Hey you two. You must also be here for the magic knights entrance exam. The names Otto is a pleasure." Otto said walking over too them.
"Oh hey the name is asta! And I'm going to be the wizard king." The short boy said with a huge grin on his face.
"Oh I like you." Otto smiled "but that's quite a bold claim your going to need the strength to back it up." Otto was a little surprised at the young boys words but he could already tell. He was the real deal not just some wanna be nobody.
"And who might you be?" Otto said pointing at yuno.
"You'll know soon enough, I plan on becoming the wizard king too."
"Oh so your the I'll let my actions speak for myself type of guy I respect that."
"Hey Otto why do you wanna be a magic knight?" Asta asked while yuno checked him out considering Otto to be compitition.
"Oh that, you see my father was a magic knight he was a great man who fought to save people, I just want to make him proud." Otto said "also if your looking for the place the exam is taking place you'll find it at the coliseum north east of here." He said pointing towards the exam sight.
"Well thanks Otto I hope we can be friends, me and yuno are going to head out now." Asta said waving goodby.
The magic knights exam wasn't for another hour so Otto sat outside the coliseum the was someone he was looking forward to seeing.
"Lea you made it, how was your training?"
"Oh it's you. So you made it I see, as for my training it went great I improved my wind magic bunches I know I'm going to pass for sure." She said "how about you with that grim ware I doubt you'll fail either."
"You could say that." Otto said "Ive been looking for ways to use my magic in a more offensive manor I'll be sure to blow away the captain's they won't even know it's coming."
"Don't get too cocky just yet you have no clue who else is going to be in there. I hear nobles are freakishly strong so don't underestimate anybody."
"I'll be sure to keep that in mind anywho the test is about to begin ladies first." Otto said using his hands to point towards the doors.
"Ahh so your a gentleman I'll keep that in mind." She said walking through the door
When Otto walked inside he saw something like five hundred other kids all taking the test. For some people this wasn't even there first attempt competition was steep Otto might have to show off a bit.
There were birds everywhere flocking around the other examanies they seemed to stay away from those with strong magical power. He turned around to see Asta running away from a dozen of the said birds and running into a man Otto actually recognized it was yami the man who was at his fathers funeral a friend. Suddenly yami picked Asta up by the head and said. "You got a death wish or somthing bud?" And one of his squad members quickly spoke up "ahh captain yami we can't kill one of the examinees it would look bad for our squad."
"Can it portal boy." Yami said and then suddenly Asta spoke up " Wow you look really old for your age must have had a rough life."Looks like I was right about that death wish." Asta started freaking out out Tami's grip was too tight. And he started counting down from ten "what are you counting down for!" Asta screamed "the end of your miserable life." Just as he was about to reach one fireworks went off into the sky. "Looks like you got lucky kid, live has given you a second chance. Better not put it to waste." He said and walked away.
Just then on the top of the coliseum 8 mages walked across and sat in there seats yami soon finding his way there as well and sat down. It was the panicle the captains of the 9 squads of the clover kingdom and in the center stood William vangeanse the captain of the golden dawn. "Hello everyone and welcome to this years magic knights entrance exam. Today I will be your proctor.
Magic trees decent!
The sky grew cloudy and dark letting no light pass through and in the chanter came a giant tree that became smaller as it descended until it was just hundreds of branches eatch branch became a broom for everyone to use.
'Wow so this is a magic knight captain. So powerful'
"In just a few moments we'll begin the first in a series of tests. The 9 magic knight captains will be your judges and when the exam is complete we will chose the individuals we want in our squads. If a squad chooses you, you are in. If more then one squad captain chooses you you will have the choice to decide between them. However if none of the captains choose you that means the captains have deemed you unqualified to join the magic knights."
"And now for the first test. You will use the brooms you have been given to fly. A mage who is in control of there mana can do this meerly by instinct alone. It is our most basic way to get from one place to another. If you can't fly on a broom then you are not worth our time. Now enough talk begin."
'As expected of a squad captain he is very well spoken.' Otto grabbed his broom and began to fly while others seemed to struggle. Some couldn't get it of the ground (cough cough Asta) while others lost control. The most impressive person out of this lot had to have been that boy who was with Asta earlier the tall boy with the black hair fully standing on this broom with complete control of the broom.
Test after test went by Asta seemingly teaming up with some blond haired guy with a wierd laugh. This test was too easy for Otto it seemed more of a formality although again the only person who seemed on his level was that boy with black hair. He was definitely someone who Otto had to watch out for.
"On too the next test. The last test and by far the most difficult. A display of combat skill." The captain of the golden down said. "Prepare to duel. You will break into pairs and fight eatchother. Use your grim wares to attack and defend." Captain fuegollion said loud and proud just as a lion would.
Otto didn't know who would possibly fight him he only knew so many people. But if there was one person he wanted to fight he knew it had to be that wind mage with the four leaf clover. Fair is fair right.
Asta teamed with the blond kid and Lea had paired with a fire mage.
"You there." I said pointing to my target. "You didn't tell me before, what's your name I know your strong and there is nobody else I'd rather fight right now."
"My name is yuno and I agree I'm sure beating you would leave a great impression on the captains." He said with a smirk
"Hello can the first two please come to the center." Said the referee eating the match.
"Right here!" Asta said running into the center with the tall blond boy from before.
"Alright we're both here for the same goal so no holding back any punches." Asta said and then the blond boy bent down and whispered something in Asta ear. "Match begin." One of the instructors said "remember Asta no holding back. Bronze Cration magic Sekke magnum cannon ball." At that moment Asta too pulled out his grim ware and from it came a long and think black sword;) and at a blinding spear rushed sekke and split the defensive spell in two. Knocking him clean out. "Unlike you sekke I'm not joining the magic knights to sit back and have fun. I have a much Bigger goal. IM GOING TO BE THE WIZZARD KING."
"Winner Asta from hadge village." The referee shouted.
"Well I guess he is quite capable." Otto said "Yes he is sekke was nowhere near his level." Yuno said
"Next two please" the referee said.
"Well I guess it's our turn now." I said looking at yuno ."prepare to lose I won't be holding back." Yuno responded heading to the center of the arena.
