"Right then! The next test should be quite similar, and knowing you should have plenty of Mana leftover! This next test will be determining your foundation, now just place your thumb on the small cube on the left and your hand on the right!"

"Don't worry about the much smaller cube you should only feel a harmless pinch!"

"And like before you need only transfer mana into both however of course only for about half a minute or so this time! And seeing as it doesn't require much mana it should still alleviate some of your.. 'previous' mana loss!"

Colin reassuringly explained causing Octavia to then playfully nod.

'He's really not affected by this you know? Wai-Wait are we not the only ones who came here with insane mana?! Is that why he's so nonchalant about all this?! I need answers you know! Oh gods I'm sounding like Fluffle now!'

Octavia frustratingly thought causing the young prince to then happily hug her surprising her causing Octavia to then adorably shake her head before then playfully flicking the young prince's forehead once more.

Causing the young prince to then adorably pout before then laying both his finger and hand on the two strange crystal cubes before then transferring some mana causing both crystals then immediately glow.

Causing a strange crystal-like screen to then quickly appear surprising both the young prince and Colin.

Causing Colin to then quickly record the results after a minute or so before then noticing small cracks in the crystal screen itself surprising him even more.

Causing him to then quickly notice several of the librarians had also noticed along with even one of the Legendary Powerhouses causing Colin to then nod.

All the while the young prince had already removed both his hand and finger before then adorably looking to Colin with an adorably curious expression causing Colin to then gently nod.

Before then motioning everyone else except both Octavia and the young prince back before then erecting a barrier to prevent anyone from listening in surprising everyone.

Causing both Iris and Elisabet to then adorably pout all the while causing Colin to then gently nod once more.

"For both privacy and security reasons I have erected this 'barrier' as to keep your results confidential, It's also considered protocol in the case an individual's Foundation Testing may have resulted in an.."

"An 'unexpected' or 'rarely' before seen result, and considering and implementing 'royal' protocol to the mix as well would 'only' and 'quickly' complicate matters"

"However, it's especially needed in cases such as these.. you needn't worry! You'll understand when you hear your results!"

"I've involved your big sister after noticing she was in fact in a similar predicament, however, be as that may the results are still drastically beyond what I would have ever expected!"

Colin comfortingly reassured causing the young prince to then hesitantly nod causing Octavia to then adorably frown all the while causing Colin after noticing this to then helplessly smile.

"Right! Your results! From what I've both 'seen' and read.. you have a Platinum Foundation, and unlike your big sister's it's a 'Semi-Perfect' Platinum Foundation while hers is still considered it's much more 'undeveloped' counterpart!"

"Not saying hers is by any means inferior of course! She's already a Low-Level Highmage after all!"

"Not to mention the 'common' misconception that many individuals and Mages believe that a Higher Foundation 'instantaneously' makes you a stronger and overall a better Mage which I find to be utterly insulting!"

"You can have a 'Perfect' Foundation and still not make any 'remarkable' achievements in magic!"

"The path of magic is meant to free you, not contain you! I-I'm sorry.. I've truly allowed my 'enthusiasm' to take control of me this time"

Colin passionately ranted before then quickly calming himself down surprising Octavia causing the young prince's eyes to then adorably sparkle in amazement causing Colin to then nod once more.

"In truth, there are many common misconceptions in the path of magic, and if you allow yourself to believe them as truths your path will not only stagnate but instead tragically end!"

"Anyways enough of this! Just know that having a Higher Foundation has many advantages, but they by no means make your path any less difficult.. a true mage's path is never-ending!"

"That being the case I'd recommend the mastering and perfecting of the most basic of magic!"

Colin reassuredly explained causing the young prince to then adorably nod causing Colin to then quickly continue.

"Solidify your foundation even if it's already 'Semi-Perfect'.. It'll no doubt improve your casting time and refine your mental energy"

"Not to mention the strengthening of your breath until you're even 'able' to hide it from others! Be it a rank above and naturally several below!"

"In any case I feel I've taken enough of your two's time, after finishing the document of yours it will then will be 'sealed' as per 'royal' protocol and your privacy, naturally Bradley, Aldra"

"And possibly even Devyn will be able to have both access to it and also be informed of such tests being taken now and in the future!"

Colin explained even more causing Octavia to then hesitantly smile all the while causing the young prince to then excitedly hug Colin surprising both Colin and Octavia.

This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

"Co-Colin's amazing!"

The young prince exclaimed causing Colin to then gently smile once more before then carefully patting the young prince's head.

All the while moments later the hug had soon ended causing Colin to then quickly remove the barrier before then sending several mental messages causing both Iris and Elisabet to then quickly and adorably rush over.

Before then excitedly hugging the young prince all the while the crowd had soon dispersed after the hugs had finished.

Moments later both Iris and Elisabet had excitedly shown both the young prince and Octavia their copies of their test results.

Surprising Octavia causing the young prince to then happily and adorably hug both.

"You two actually have Gold Foundations? I'm impressed! Wai-Wait what?!"

"Elisabet, it says you're already a High-Level Mage Apprentice ac-actually you're practically my sister too anyways so that would make sense.. but still?! Wha-What about Iris? N-No way!"

"You're actually a High-Level Mage?! And you two actually scored fifteen minutes?! N-No Iris scored sixteen.. wow I didn't expect any of this!"

"Wait how come you two know some magic and yet my.. 'our' little brother doesn't? Iris is still younger than him so that's no excuse!"

Octavia surprisingly pouted surprising the young prince before then quickly being cut off once more.

"Either way.. now I'm wondering about my other two 'supposed' sisters? I guess I'll see when they get ungrounded. Punished maybe? You know what?! I'm just going to go with 'pouting'.. we'll see when they finish their pouting! I can't wait!"

Octavia joked causing the young prince to then happily hug all three.

All the while Aldra had already arrived to the throneroom with both Devyn and Marjorie.

Before then being informed of both the letter and what had transpired surprising Marjorie who had been busy most of the week to then finally catch up to current affairs.

Before then worriedly looking to Aldra who had gently frowned before then nonchalantly sitting on Bradley's throne all the while Silas.

Amber and Sura had patiently waited quietly to the side while Kethryllia had already gotten up to greet all three to then stand by Aldra's side causing Sura to then adorably hide behind Silas and Amber surprising Aldra.

Causing Aldra after noticing this to then gently shake her head.

"Sura I could never be upset with you.. I'd imagine we'll 'even' have a chance to become even closer over time, If anything I blame Bradley for his 'past'.. adventures"

"Despite this.. I can hardly blame him.. we weren't in fact 'together' at the time?"

Aldra reassured causing Kethryllia to then gently nod with approval having previously heard from Emilia of what had transpired before causing Aldra to then gently nod before then continuing.

"And for that, I have to take 'some' responsibility, however, this might sound 'strange' or maybe I'm just happy all three of us will 'finally' be reunited after being apart for so long time.."

"But the idea of also having two more daughters and those with a similar appearance of two of my closest childhood best friends and sisters is fairly exciting don't you think?"

"Aurel, Rory, Stella, and even Elisabet will have felt similar experiences as we did back then"

Aldra surprisingly confessed surprising everyone causing Sura to then adorably sigh with relief all the while causing Kethryllia to then gently nod before then handing her a list surprising her.

Causing both Marjorie and Devyn to then lean over before then looking to the list causing all three to then become flushed after reading a few names.

"H-He didn't! By the gods what is this?"

Marjorie surprisingly asked causing Silas who had been tipsy earlier to then take a peek surprising him causing him to then hesitantly sneak back to the couch and leaking the names to Amber.

Before then quickly hugging Amber like a teddy bear once more all the while Aldra, Marjorie, and Devyn were left flabbergasted after already having read three names from the list of seven causing Devyn to then pause.

Before then quickly realizing it was in fact in order! Of all things, Bradley had decided to list them first to last in a manly manner as all men should!

Causing Devyn after realizing this as well to then curiously read the bottom of the list causing both Marjorie and Aldra after noticing this then quickly do the same causing all three to then freeze.

"Princess Nu-Nuri Claret.. hi-his first time was with a Dragoness?! I understand most of you Celestials and Elves are related to Dragons in some way or the other.. but this?! You know I don't even want to think about it you know?"

"I heard she prefers to stay in her Dragon 'Form' most of the time so no one has ever seen her original form.. oh gods don't tell me he-"

Devyn surprisingly asked as well before then being cut off by Aldra gently covering her mouth.

"Dev-Devyn le-let's not think of such things.. I-I'd imagine or choose to believe they met in their original forms, no-now let's see who's second"

Aldra worriedly confessed.

Causing both Devyn and Marjorie to then hesitantly nod all the while Bromley had soon entered after being informed of the young prince's antics in The Celestial Royal Library.

Before then visiting the Throneroom in the hopes of asking if any of them had known about this.. before then being surprised by the scene causing Aldra.

Devyn and Marjorie to then immediately stare at him before then gently sighing in relief after realizing it was in fact Bromley and not Bradley causing Bromley to then curiously sit on the couch.

Causing him to then wait before then bringing it up, all the while moments later all three had soon frozen once more causing Devyn to then adorably blush.

"Lin-Lindie Serpa? First a Dragoness and now a Serpentess? When did he ever have a chance to meet those two?! You know I'm worried about Bradley's taste in women now you know!"

Devyn worriedly confessed causing Bromley to then freeze causing Marjorie after noticing then to then gently freeze herself.

Before then tapping on both Aldra's and Devyn's shoulders surprising them causing Marjorie to then gently point to Bromley with a gentle pouting expression causing all three to then stare Bromley down.

Causing him to then look to both Silas and Amber causing both then freeze before then looking to each other before then quickly and adorably shaking their heads.

All the while causing Bromley to then hesitantly look to Kethryllia of all people with pleading eyes.

Causing her to then gently sigh before then quickly pulling out both an empty scroll and a quill from her space ring causing both Silas and Amber to then helplessly look to Bromley with adorably sympathetic expressions.

All the while Sura had already fallen fast to sleep, moments later Marjorie, Aldra, and Devyn had now obtained another list.

Causing poor Bromley to then tearily lay his head on Amber's lap while she still sat on Silas's causing Amber to then helplessly try to comfort Bromley by gently patting his head.

All the while.. Aldra, Marjorie, and Devyn after having compared the two lists guilty looked to the now defeated Bromley who had in fact only written four names..

The fourth name was in fact Marjorie while the first belonged to a well-known Princess of Lupess a Kingdom the exact 'opposite' to The Kingdom of Feless when compared to the two.

All the while the second belonged to a Princess belonging to The Kingdom of Lacerus all three of who were very quite unique however the third name surprised everyone.

After realizing it was, in fact, the name of the same Feless Diplomat that Bromley used to follow around a lot as a child surprising Marjorie even more.

However, when compared to Bradley's list they were quite tamed and surprising, to say the least, and much like Bradley.

Bromley had also done these things while not being in any form of serious relationship causing Marjorie to then hesitantly and understandably nod all the while also wanting to question Bradley about that Feless Diplomat.

All the while.. Aldra had soon sat down on Bradley's throne while she soaked in the fact that Bradley had such 'unique' and exotic tastes causing Kethryllia to then gently shake her head.

Causing Bromley to then helplessly freeze before then quickly lifting his head.
