"Wait! Wait! Stop! Stop! Fine! I'll listen to your condition or whatever!"
I smiled lightly before redirecting my eyes to the man before , his silky black hair glistening from the lights above.
"You have to drag along my siblings, and they must co with . Also, if any other school wants to drag to their side, you have to give a better deal than this guy. Plus, you must drag my siblings along," I said while turning to the various teachers above.
The room went silent as the teachers slowly grumbled under their breath, knowing that putting too much into a single middle school student without even knowing a glimpse of their future was suicide.
"Okay, well, it'll be nice working with you," I muttered, and as I shook hands with the black-haired man, I could imdiately confirm he was the guy from before.
The pressure being emitted from him was like deadly gravity magic pressing onto my spine itself.
"What is the body part for the rune?" I asked as the guy followed to the next testing zone, which was the standardized IQ and battle IQ test.
First cos the IQ, and then cos the battle IQ, as they are very separate and different things, despite people trying to wrap them into the sa group.
"Fingers," The man said with a wide smile that sent chills down my spine.
"How many does it connect to?"
"All ten," He replied with an even wider smile, and my heart began to race with large pumps of adrenaline.
Alright… calm down… he might drop you if you beco too eager.
"Why give sothing so precious away when you don't even know if I'll get far in this world? Who knows, I might end up dying the second I get to your academy," I chuckled, but the man kept his wide smile.
"I know your potential. Rember, I fought with you, and back then, your skill was much greater than what was displayed today… Have you taken a practice test for any of these standardized tests?"
"Yeah,"
"What did you get?"
"I got an 87 out of 100 for the IQ," I muttered.
"And for the battle IQ?" The man asked, practically shaking with excitent, so I debated whether telling him my actual score would be worth it.
"99 out of 100,"
"What the fuck… Seriously? Is that even possible!?" He exclaid, but as we had reached the zone for the next area, the guy was forced to return to his position and sit on my answer for a while.
I think I'm pretty smart when it cos to general questions about most subjects, such as magic theory, machinery, math, writing, and combat theory… but my battle IQ has just been honed to its max.
It didn't even take that long for to max it out due to certain circumstances.
"Okay, you are seat twenty-four, so please wait patiently as we wait for the last student to arrive," A man said to before I made my way up the slightly inclined steps and took my seat near the very top of the area.
Everybody was just fiddling with their pencils, so I beca part of the mob and tried to cure my boredom the sa way.
The last dude that entered the testing area limped all the way up to the seat exactly a ter away from .
His leg had been torn to shreds, while a large claw mark had torn apart his chest, leaving him to spill tons of blood.
His breathing was sporadic and disorganized, almost as if he was about to go in shock… well, he did.
Sparks of mana flew everywhere as his body convulsed and folded into his mana core, tearing it to shreds in the process, which isn't normal.
The claw mark didn't even tear through his chest, and I doubt a reaction to shock could be this bad that their mana core is actually getting destroyed.
"He was sabotaged," I heard a girl next to mutter before receiving the packet of three double-sided papers.
I then grabbed my own after watching the kid get dragged away on a stretcher, his blood being mopped up as they walked.
Then, the procter soon announced the start of the test, so I glanced over all the pages and smiled to myself.
This is going to be easy.
…
Exactly an hour later, the test had closed, so I handed in my fully completed test before receiving the next one, which was even easier than before.
The previous test was pretty easy, though I felt like I could've done better, but with this subject, I was confident I could at least pass.
"Please! Please let take the test! I can't go back to my family and tell them that I failed! PLEASE PROCTER! PLEASE! I'LL GIVE YOU AS MUCH MONEY AS YOU WANT!" A familiar kid clawed his way through a pile of security guards.
It was the sa kid from before who had those terrible injuries but was now almost completely healed, just his leg was wrapped in a cast.
"Igor Voidmaw, you are now officially banned from ever taking part in this test again. Wait till the high school test for you to raise your ashad head again," The proctor said in a cold voice, and I could literally see the light die in the kid's eyes.
Clearly, he was about to get disowned or just straight up killed by his family for "bringing upon sha" to their family na.
I laughed a bit under my hand before the procter let us regain our concentration and start the next test swiftly.
…
"*yawn*... Fuck, that was so boring. I completed it and checked it five tis in just under thirty minutes… shit… I should've spread out the questions more," I muttered while moving on to the final area.
"Hey, I saw you pretty bored during that test. Was it that easy?" A familiar girl ran up beside as we all walked onto a dirt arena.
She had long pink hair, fluffy tan eyes, and a voice that could charm anybody into doing her bidding.
Let's see what she's going to try and make do…
