Soot Academy: The Doomsday of Elysian

[Chapter 8]

Examination Day

∆∆∆

Almost 2 weeks passed since I ended up in Elysian. In that 2 weeks, I managed to keep up with how they study here. It's exhausting, really, lalo na ibang iba 'to sa nakasanayan ko.

I've learnt a lot about this world, some historical event like wars, important discoveries, and more. Parang tulad lang sa Earth ang set up, except may magic dito.

Honestly, I've been busy that I forgot about my family back in Earth. I wonder how they're doing? Still, I have no clue who I am, because I don't really know where to start.

"Kinakabahan ka rin ba?" Someone asked beside me. It's Euno, my demon classmate.

Examination na kasi namin for the next hour and we are heading to the stadium where the exams will be held.

I shook my head, "not really."

"Of course you would say that. You're powerful after all." He laughed.

I believe in my abilities anyway, I'm not just a psychic. I posses the six main elements in this world. Some seen me in our Combat Class and Study of Abilities that I control them.

I couldn't control them properly back in my world, but here I could. Siguro dahil nga mas madami ang nakukuha kong energy dito, gaya ng sinabi ni HM. But I don't think I'm nowhere better at controlling it, I want more.

Nakapunta na ang section anmin sa stadium at may mga naunang section na ang nageexam. Maaga ang schedule nila unlike sa'min.

My eyes landed on the red head person, the only one person who's energy is on top of everyone in this school.

"Uy oh," agaw pansin sa'kin ni Euno at tinuro si Herio.

I groaned. Me and Herio are known in our class because well, we're just always competing with each other whether if it's quizzes or combats. You could say we're academic rivals. You know what's worse? I'm always second, and I hate it.

Herio seems like he noticed us, as soon as his gaze landed at me, he smirked. He's holding some papers and he looks like he's organizing something, I guess that's one of his responsibilities as the school's representative.

When we got our seats, I was beside Euno and some other girl I don't know.

Our test today is entering a place, wherein we'll kill our co-students to get points. That place is an illusion dimension where the killed student would immediately be back here, kaya wala talagang mamamatay.

The test would last for a day in that dimension but 1 hour in actual life. Sampung klase ang sabay sabay na ilalagay, at sa bawat klase ay may halos 30 na studyante.

If our percentage went below 30, that's on the trainee section, the lowest one. While 31-50% is the starter section, 51-70% intermediate section, 71-89% master section, lastly 90-100% the advanced section.

There are five sections in total, but under those section could be a lot of classes. Sa advanced section nga lang daw ay isa lang ang class, dahil konti lang ang nakakapasok dito. It's also the hardest section, because of the special classes.

"Carlum, section na natin." Kalabit sa'kin ni Euno. Tumayo na kami para pumunta sa stadium kung saang lugar kami mateteleport.
