Chapter 30 - Level Test

Before Tammy and Luis could reach the large gate, two men had already come out to meet them, they both had guns in their hands which made Tammy wonder why they were still with that since it didn't do anything against demons.

When the demons attacked the first time, the humans thought they wouldn't be much of a trouble, the military was sent to fight them but their large force was easily defeated because their guns and firepower didn't work against them.

The humans were almost got wiped out and that was when the mighty angel Zillah showed up, he quickly changed the tide of the war, taking out almost all the demons with his flaming sword which was able to deal great damage on the demons.

Zillah could have defeated the demons on their own but he wanted the humans to help and that was when he introduced the humans to soul weapons and pure blades.

Pure blades were a type of metal that was able to easily hurt the demons and that damage would even be greater when the blade was heated.

This was a trump card for the humans but it had a downside because the pure blade was very scarce and Zillah has left only one piece on earth, but he did say there was a place where there were enough pure blades on earth but nobody had been able to find them.

This was why the humans were left with only one option which was to use their soul weapons, the soul weapons were weapons forged directly by a person through his soul and it was the only thing apart from a pure blade that was able to harm demons although it wasn't as strong as the pure blade but it still did something.

The gate was opened and Luis and Tammy were greatly surprised by what they were seeing now.

A large number of students were surrounding what looked like a hole but when they got close they discovered that it was an arena.

All the students of Crockel Academy about three hundred of them were standing at the edge of the arena while the arena remained empty.

What came as a surprise to Tammy was that everyone was wearing the same black uniform with the same watches.

Immediately Luis entered through the gates, the first thing he wanted to do was check if there were any demons nearby so he activated his aura vision, but his aura vision only focused on a particular area at once, because of this Luis thought that he had a lot of looking around to do until something unexpected happened.

[ Aura vision has leveled]

[ Aura vision is now level 02 ]

[ Now covers a wider range and now provides information on the subject ]

'Information.' Luis was confused because he was getting any information, but still, his aura vision was now covering a wide range which meant that he now only had to look in four places.

"What's happening?" Tammy asked the guards who had brought them in.

"All I know is that this has to do with your assessments."

"Assessments?"

"Yeah, we have to go now." The guard said and before they knew it both of them were gone.

"I guess we have to go find out on our own," Luis said gesturing for them to move forward.

While going to join the rest of the students Luis decided to leave his aura vision active and that was when he saw someone approaching him, he wanted to deactivate his aura vision and check who it was but he didn't have to.

[ Name: Ella Jones ]

[ Aura: Yellow ]

[ Race: Human ]

[ Family Ability: Lighting ]

[ Ability: Body enhancement ]

"Eh... Luis." Ella said.

Luis was marveled by what he was seeing on his screen that he didn't know when Ella walked up to him and said hi.

"Luis," Tammy said giving him a little budge.

"What's up Ella," Luis said sounding startled.

"I'm okay," Ella said with a quiet voice. "But are you?"

Luis simply nodded.

"So who's the cute girl Luis?" Tammy asked.

Luis paused because actually, he didn't have an answer to that question because he didn't know what Ella was to him,they weren't actually friends at least he didn't think so.

"We are friends," Ella said.

"You made a friend on your first day?" Tammy said. "A girlfriend."

This caused Luis' cheek to go bright red, Ella noticed the awkwardness and decided to change the topic.

"Luis you didn't tell me you were related to the strongest student in the academy."

"Strongest?"

"Yeah."

"We are..." Tammy wanted to say something but quickly stopped herself from making a mistake.

Another young lady showed up in front of Tammy.

"Hi, Tammy."

Luis had to use his aura vision just to be safe.

[ Name: Pearl Reeves ]

[ Aura: Yellow ]

[ Race: Human ]

[ Family Ability: None ]

[ Ability: Water ]

Luis was glad to see someone who had a water ability, maybe he could convince her to spar with him so that he could unlock his water ability, but before he could even talk to Pearl he had already been pulled away towards the arena by Ella.

"Why do I feel like that boy wanted to talk to me?" Pearl said looking at Luis being pulled away. "Is he your cousin?"

"No... I mean yes, yes he is my cousin."

"Come on they are about to make the announcement," Ella said pulling Luis closer to the crowd.

"Ok, I can walk fine," Luis said breaking free from her hold.

A woman wearing a black suit walked into the arena, she placed her hand on the floor and a pillar of earth lifted from the ground bringing her into everyone's view.

"Earth ability," Luis said.

The woman had a tiny microphone attached to her ear and mouth this was to make sure that everybody could hear her.

Many students had a lot of questions in their minds like; Why are they all wearing black? Why was the school kept a secret? And why were they all gathered here?

The school had decided that every student had to wear black, they no longer wanted the color clothing this was a way to keep track of every student.

The students didn't actually buy the explanation from the teacher but what choice did they have?

Another thing that pissed most of the level six students out was the fact that the school had been split into three classes instead of six according to their levels.

First-year students had to stay in the first-year class no matter their level, that was what the watch was meant for.

This was to make sure that everyone graduated from the academy in time.

The class level system caused a lot of people to drop out without ever graduating.

After explaining all these things the teacher moved on to tell them why they were here.

To determine a student's level, a set of tests had been laid out, which includes; strength, speed, reflexes, and senses, the number would appear on the student's watch according to how well he or she did on the test.

The first-year students were to go first, a boy's name was called and he was asked to step into one of the x marked spaces where the students were told not to pass.

Immediately he stepped his feet there he got transported into the arena.

The first trial was strength, there was a large frame that appeared with something like a pendulum attached to its upper part, then there was a drum at the back of the pendulum.

The goal was to push the large pendulum so that it would hit the drum, the more force is used to hit the drum the more point one would have.

The boy struggled to move the thing and when it made contact with a drum nothing was heard it was a weak effort but at least he managed to move the large pendulum.

The boy completed all other tests and managed to get a level two, the number two was displayed on his watch after the test.

The test continued with the names of year one students being called until Luis' name was called.

"Luis Miles please step into the x marked area to take your test.
