STORK

Definitive bowl

On the second day, neither the examiner, anyone with us, but the task is posted on a huge screen, located in the hall on the entire wall. The test was quite simple, all we needed was to take the bowl in hand and cut the palm and add a few drops of blood to it. Then, the cup will determine the level of predisposition in the blood and decide. Is the participant worthy of continuing to study at this academy by drawing his number at the bottom of the bowl. The fact is that after this there will be only 160 people. 20 people for each specialty.

- I need to go through this. I want to wipe the nose of this b***h, that all the time he was bullied on the street.

Starting the second test, we took a qualifying cup. Each participant, cut his hand and poured a drop of his blood. The blood inside the bowl ignited and the fire did not fade. After 3 minutes, he went out and a number appeared on the bottom showing their level among the applicants.

- Fred 25th number. Fit

- Elizabeth 12th room. Fit

- Tommy number 9. Fit

- Ain 3 number. Fit

- I expected to be in the first 160, but I would never have thought that I would be in the top three students of this year.

In fact, the cup was the examiner himself. With the help of the “miter” spell, he turned his body into a bowl and divided it into 800 pieces, giving each participant. There was no concern about the specialty. The examiner simply checked the level of our abilities by blood and the spell itself evaluated them based on that. My estimated it as number 3. The people raised a riot.

- How is it, why does some kind of bowl evaluate our abilities?

- This is unfairly trash cat passed, but no commoners.

- This is a lie. He did this trick with us to pass the exam.

Then, all the bowls went up over their heads and merged into one. After that, a voice from the cup uttered the “Intra” spell and a second examiner, Stewart Fenedit, appeared.

- Gentlemen, this bowl is me. Evaluated you spell. According to ancient customs, adopted since the days of the founder. Having taken a sample of your blood, an ancient spell that shows everything, past, present and future, analyzes them, scatters between the applicants and decides for itself what number to award to you. There was no deception here, if someone does not agree with the ancient customs, please go out and show that you are worthy, right here and now.

Forward came the guy who did not pass stage 2 named Brad Stone.

- I disagree. The founder has created hierarchies where predisposition is everything. At the same time, many commoners have filled up the stages, and the cat has reached the final. Where's the justice?

- Then, I will ask you all to pay attention to the screen.

2 scales appeared on the screen:

1) Brad Stone, with a scale of 12 percent

2) Ain, with a scale of 100 percent

- See? Judging by these criteria, in comparison with you Ain noble. Or, your level is so low that this guy bypassed you by 82 percent, or he is not an ordinary cat as everyone says.

Everyone is perplexed about how this is possible. Why is Ain better than many commoners? After all, he is just a street tramp who was rejected by the family, that is, he is not predisposed to the “Sondar”, but in the end he does not just own her, and one of the best among her classmates.

- In fact, everything is simple, money, fame, gold, business, fortune. All this is false, only blood can show your real position in life. So who else disagrees with my decision?

Everyone shut up and silently agreed. No one, after such words, had the right to object, because everyone knew the ancient tradition of blood and to cross it is tantamount to becoming an outcast, the one who sifted himself and his whole family. After a long showdown, the director, as usual, delivered the final speech

- First 160 come forward. The rest, collect things and go home. Dear incoming, tomorrow you will find the final. He will be a battle in the arena.

- The rules are such a battle is over, when the opponent surrendered or lost consciousness. You can not kill your opponent, potions, spells and other abilities to use harmful for students in the future are also prohibited and in no case should you use deadly ones. The screen posted on the screen. There are 20 participants from each specialty i. Only 10 of you will pass, the other 10 will be sent home. Opponents will be selected randomly, regardless of your specialties, for example: Knight Vs Alchemist, Caster Vs Grimm and so on.

Surprise flashed on the faces of the finalists.

- And now, the arena is at your disposal. You can use at your discretion, for training and demonstrative fights. Tomorrow, you must be ready to fight for a place worthy of being called students of this academy. Beginning at 10:00.

So ended the second day of the exam. Surprisingly, no one got me. Even, no one said a word after passing by and the room was in the state in which I left it in the morning.
