As the board illuminated with colors representing the magic grades, Lyrian's name blazed in vibrant red, shining like a beacon of extraordinary potential. Gasps of disbelief rippled through the gathering of students and adults, each face mirroring the shock of witnessing an exceptional display. Even the ones who had mocked Lyrian moments ago were left stunned, their own scores paling in comparison. He met their surprised expressions with a mischievous grin, relishing the sweet taste of…-

Ignoring the bully for a moment, Lyrian pondered to himself, 'The magic potential test? I've never come across that in any of my books.' He couldn't help but notice the anxious aura it stirred among the other kids, indicating that it was likely a challenging hurdle to overcome. Just as he was contemplating this, a random student raised their hand amidst the crowd. Catching sight of the eager questioner, Julius beckoned them to speak, his smile warm and inviting. "Do we have a question?" he inquired,…

Following the trail of the other ships, the one Lyrian stood on also entered the dome. From the outside, everything looked to have a small blurred effect, but all of that changed as Lyrian feasted his eyes on what was inside. Although the outside of the dome was an endless horizon of trees, the inside looked to be mostly just a patch of grass. All of the ships landed in an organized space to the left of the dome, feet away from each other. On the other side of the dome were several small half-dome…

Amidst the growing anticipation and nervousness among the crowd, Lyrian finally opened his eyes. It wasn't like using Gale made him deaf; he knew exactly what was happening. With an impressed expression dawning on his face, he slowly rose to his feet. An exasperated thought interrupted Bardon's speech as Lyrian let out a sudden yawn. "Why does this keep happening to me? It's getting pretty annoying." Gasps rippled through the onlookers, taken aback by his audacity. "What the hell do you want?" Lyrian…

Immediately Lyrian noticed a few eyes on him, which quickly lowered as he gazed at them. From the looks of everyone else, he was already an outcast. Since Anaviotis was such a prominent school, only high-ranking nobles and royals would find themselves attending there. For Lyrian however, it was clear to see that he wasn't of any such origins as his clothes alone looked like what average people would wear. In comparison, the other kids wore jewelry in the form of rings and bracelets, with surcoats and…

After Lyrian and his parents returned home, they settled into a rather uneventful week. Nothing much happened except for one noteworthy discovery that Lyrian made: using spells didn't actually deplete his mana permanently, or at least that's what he found out. During the affinity test, Lyrian noticed his mana stat decreasing when he cast spells. But to his relief, it gradually restored itself over time, returning to its original level. Curious to confirm this, he conducted a few experiments using the…

*In the 20 minutes prior to Lyrian and his family leaving the testing room.* Lyrian's parents stood beside him, beaming with pride and amazement. They knew their son was special, but this exceeded even their wildest expectations. "You-- you're a paragon magus! You hold control of all four major magical elements! This... I have to report this immedia--" The bewildered examiner said before beginning to fiddle with his coat to retrieve a communication device to relay this information. "Wait! Stop that…

As Glis disappeared into the testing room, the lobby buzzed with speculation. Whispers and murmurs spread like wildfire, fueled by the gossip-hungry crowd. The room had transformed into a theater of curiosity, with all eyes fixated on Lyrian. He had inadvertently become a source of intrigue, his interactions with the Silandra girl igniting the imaginations of those present. Amidst the sea of astonished faces, Lyrian leaned back in his seat, soaking in the attention with a show of nonchalance, but also…

As they stepped inside, they were greeted by a large hall-like lobby full of people who looked to be waiting for the affinity test as well. The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Most people were in their own heads, nervous to see if they held any affinities for magic. ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm As Lyrian and his family entered, many eyes attached to them and followed them through the room as they walked. In the city of Illstria, it was rare to not know of the Theageld family. Before…

As he stepped inside, Lyrian found himself surrounded by a bustling atmosphere. The air was thick with anticipation and the sound of animated conversations filled the hall. Adventurers of various races, clad in a colorful array of armor and garments, mingled and exchanged tales of their exploits. Lyrian had seen a few people with animal body parts before, such as tails and ears, but here existed beings that were lizard-like humanoids, dwarfs, and tall ones with pale skin and pointy ears. Warriors,…
