*Akumo heads to his next exam where he is in a room with a lot of orbs on tables *

Teacher: alright you students will place your hands on the orb and releases as much magic as possible it will read your magic system and tell you what class it will be in

Akumo: that’s sounds simple enough!

Boy: who is this clown?

Teacher: alright then boy step up first and show us what you got!

Akumo: alright!

*akumo slaps his hand to the orb and releases his magic, the orb begins to show numbers as it rises from the hundreds into the thousands*

Teacher: not bad kid but still---

*the orb cracks and the number raise to the millions and stops saying a error as the orb explodes*

Boy: who the hell is this guy!?

Teacher: I don’t believe it

Akumo: something don’t feel right I didn’t even used my power

Everyone: what?!!

*Someone knocks on the room door as a man enters with a cart*

Man: hey sorry we forgot to tell you that orb was about to reach its capacity but we seem to be too late , don’t worry we brought another one free of magic!

*everyone begins to laugh at akumo*

Boy: he really thought he was some overpowered mage!!

Akumo: no wonder why the orb explode let me try again!

Teacher: sure kid don’t embarrass yourself again

*akumo places his palm down again and gets a score of 6 thousand*

Teacher: above average huh? I guess that’s good enough!

Akumo: yay!!

Boy: don’t get cocky

Akumo: oh come on it ain’t that much I bet some of yall can get the same score as me!

*meanwhile hayami and the rest of the student council prepare a room full of equipment as kiruma enters the room*

Kiruma: is everything going alright?

Hayami: yes ma’am this room is the last one and ready for magic attributes exam

Kiruma: good keep me updated I’ll go collect the samples

Hayami: wait sensei!

Kiruma: what is It?

Hayami: why does akumo have to take the entrance exams? He received the mail didn’t he, he was already accepted

Kiruma: yes but that boy got here late and as punishment I’m making him take the exam he could learn something hopefully some common sense

Isaac: and some respect

*later akumo is outside standing next to a line of students*

Teacher: listen up today were going to see if you all are able to create some simple spells if you fail to meet our criteria you fail now first up a defense spell cast a barrier around or in front of you it doesn’t have to be perfect… I lied It does have to be perfect now show me what you got!!

*everyone tries to cast a barrier but as they struggle akumo puts his hands out*

Akumo: so like this?

*akumo creates a large barrier around all the students*

Teacher: what?! (How can a kid create a barrier of that size?! And he isn’t even struggling) alright kid whatever you do, do not lose your concentration a barrier that size can---

*Akumo’s barrier explodes hurting everyone*

Teacher: explode….

Akumo: haha! That was fun what’s next?

Everyone: you almost killed us!!!

*next akumo was handed a dying flower*

Teacher: healing is an important part of mage training and in battle or anywhere else you happen to run out of healing supplies you can always rely on your magic and use a healing spell and depending on what magic attribute you have your healing spell will only grow to some extent and in front of you is a dead flower place your palm above the flower and engulf the flower of your magic then try firmly thinking about healing it, don’t think about anything else but healing that flower

Akumo: that’s sounds easy enough!

*akumo places his palm above the flower and sparks hits the flower burning it away*

Akumo: oops…

Teacher: this next step is light luminance

*the teacher turns off the lights*

Teacher: create a magic sphere on your palm and try to make it brighter you never know when you need this

Akumo: I got this!!

*akumo creates a small bright sphere of magic*

Teacher: you actually did something right! Good job!

Akumo: well of course!

*the sphere begins emit sparks of electricity and begins to shock everyone in the room*
