Blood Elf Monarch

Prontea, the Arcadian capital city

Wizard Academy

Inside one of the academy's training rooms, two groups of students were seen having a team battle, flinging various spells and enchantments at one another at an amazing speed.

"Get back!!" A young man shouted in the crowd.

A sudden bolt of lightning struck through the group of young students, but it was immediately deflected by a layer of energy that dispersed it into a million little sparks. The other students jumped out of the way, careful not to get electrocuted.

[Bright Shield] Tier 2 Light Element Spell

The sudden shield of energy had saved the group, and the man who was shouting before instantaneously felt gratitude towards the black-haired girl who was able to cast the protection spell so quickly and accurately. It was clear from her solid skills and quick decision making that she was a prodigy when it came to magic.

Not only was she the youngest and the prettiest in her class, she was also among one of the most talented. There was just one downside, and it became apparent as a dark glare descended on her beautiful features.

Immediately after casting the spell, the girl turned violently around to face her four classmates.

"You fucking cowards!" She screamed in a hair-raising tone, pointing in the direction of their opponents. "Go charge now! Or so help me god, I will kick your asses myself!!"

The four young magicians quickly stood up straight, scrambled into formation, and began to cast their own spells.

The young man from before cast [Stone Skin] and stayed at the forefront of the group, acting as an added layer of defense for them. Meanwhile, from a bit farther back, the other three used their mid to long range spells to cast offensive attacks from behind. [Ice Bullets], [Fireball], and [Gust of Wind], all of which were elemental spells.

While all this was happening, the black haired girl would stay at the far end to heal the others using [Healing Ray]. And when the group occasionally got pushed back, she would utilize her defensive spells to protect them.

Unfortunately, though, today's session was allotted for the students to test out the theories they had learned in class. As a result, they purposefully made the number of opponents larger than the students' respective groups, each having to fight a 10 against 5 battle.

After a continuous exchange of spells, each of the members within the group began to fall one by one, leaving only the black haired girl fending off four attackers at once.

"Huh! Useless pigs! I'm wasting my energy trying to heal you all."

The four opponents were delighted that only the support mage was left, not knowing that when the girl was cornered she would take out her weapons; dual-wielded energy guns that she fired with both hands.

Bamm!! Bamm!!

The opponents couldn't believe it. The girl was able to cast magic incredibly fast, all while still being able to use a gun with great accuracy.

When she was cornered, she would cast some kind of protective shield or start healing herself at will. Within a few minutes, finally the test ended.

[White Group wins]

[Fixi - 890 point]

[Giana - 790 point]

[....]

"You are amazing, Layla!!" One of her teammates said enthusiastically. Layla herself, though, simply looked at the rest of them with complete ambivalence.

"Thank you. thank you.. and I am sorry I speak too harshly, I always do that under pressure."

This was actually something that her teammate already used to get from the black haired beauty, so they understand.

Not long after she finished her test, she began to receive some notifications that brought a satisfied grin to her face.

[You have passed the test with top scores]

[You are rewarded with a high-quality spirit potion]

[You have received 200 student points]

She immediately ran towards the Wizard Academy's front desk in order to claim her potion.

Layla didn't wait long she took a shot in one of the training halls and quickly drink the potion while meditating in full concentration

[5 point increase in Spirit Force]

[Layla - Human]

[Battle power - 24 points]

[Spirit force - 88 points]

[Magician Rank 3 - Mid Stage]

"Yes!! getting stronger every day!"

Only after 10 weeks of training, Layla had now turned into quite the powerful magician. She had high aptitude and the intelligence to absorb all her studies.

The next thing she did was go to the Wizard Library and browse for more spells.

[Light Element]

[Blessed - Rank 3 Light Spell - 500 student points]

"Increases the body's resistance and augments an ally's attack power with Light element."

[Smite - Rank 3 Light Spell - 500 student points]

"An area-of-effect attack that destroys and repels the enemy."

She rolled her eyes as none of them really excited her.

"Are there any flying spells or teleportation spells for Light magician?" She thought to herself.

After browsing some more, she ended up purchasing [Telekinesis - Rank 2 Light spell - 200 student points].

"Ability to control objects based on the user's desire and energy reserve."

It was not exactly flying magic, but if she had a strong enough spirit force, she could use the spell to lift herself up in the air.

Layla then returned to her room and started to learn the new spell by heart, as she always did when she delved into her studies. But she realized that even with the successful results of her test and receiving the rewards that she did, she still wasn't happy.

At the moment, she was just concerned about her brother. It had been days since she sent him her last messages, but the fool still hadn't returned any of them.

The reason why she was looking for a mobility spell was for one purpose only. To escape whenever she had the chance. After training and getting stronger, nowadays the girl felt confident enough with her powers to the point where thoughts of escape began to fill her mind.

With her talent, by the next morning, she was already able to cast her new spell perfectly.

[Telekinesis]

And with that, she successfully made herself float in midair. But for some reason, she was unable to hover more than a meter from the ground. She wondered if her weight had something to do with it.

"Maybe I can cast it better after I diet," she thought to herself.

Because of this, her escape plan would have to wait.

When she was on her way to class, she was stopped in her tracks by a group of fighters in white uniforms. She knew who they were; the Arcadian Kingsblade.

"The King wishes to see you, "Come with us."
