Chapter 269 269 - Gaining RP

While Aiden continued to train his accuracy with his icicles, the first part of the entrance exam was still ongoing as some people advanced to the next part and some were eliminated.

However, for the majority of people, there hadn't been any problem regarding succeeding in the trial.

Aiden didn't seem too worried about reaching the next trial as he knew that he would be able to destroy all these targets with the training that he was going through.

He had made a lot of icicles since he had started practicing and all of his attempts at getting more precise seemed to be working since the icicles would go where he had planned 90% of the time.

'Will this be enough?' Aiden thought as he knew that there were fifteen targets and he would sometimes be missing.

'Yeah, I'll make it work.'

Then, as he had this thought, he heard his name being called by Sophia and without even needing to raise his hand, he felt a similar sensation to when he had teleported into this world in the first place.

'Did the Lumithars take this magic from them for the system?' Aiden thought.

He had noticed that there were a lot of similar things between the system and this world that he had thrown into.

Thinking about it, Aiden had to admit that it was very interesting and it honestly gave him a little idea of how this "superior" race had created this system and all of its functionalities.

However, he wouldn't do any good thinking about it right now as he needed to pass this little challenge first which is why he looked up as he glanced at all of the targets.

'Alright, let's do this. Icicle,' Aiden thought.

Then, as the little ice thingy appeared in his hand, he made it spin for it to gain speed as he didn't want the target to resist the attack from his spell.

After doing that, he immediately launched it by using the entirety of his body just like the others had shown previously.

He first moved his palm back with the icicle floating inside it and then while his body accompanied his movement he instantly pushed his hand in a uni-directional way, making sure that it would go where he had aimed.

Then, the icicle moved forward and hit the target which was situated as close as possible from Aiden.

After succeeding in hitting the first target, Aiden got some confidence as he decided to accelerate this whole thing, summoning another icicle in his hand.

As he did so, he had to admit that he was surprised that he wasn't running out of mana since he knew that his reserves were quite limited.

'Maybe this doesn't use mana? But what else could it be using, the system didn't tell me that I awakened anything new?'

'Maybe it's related to that core that they had talked about earlier, however, I have no idea of where it could even be,' Aiden thought as he continued to launch his icicles forward without taking a single break.

Sophia who was right beside had to admit that she was quite impressed by the performance that he was showing.

She had noticed him practicing on the side since she had almost received an icicle in the head, so she had obviously noticed that he had gotten a lot better than earlier.

While this challenge had been going on, she had given him multiple glances to see his progress and she was extremely impressed by the rate at which he was learning stuff.

It was obvious to her that Aiden had never used magic before, however, it seemed that his talent would compensate for it.

Even if he failed one of the challenges, she would still make sure that he would be joining the academy because his talent was simply incredible.

'To be able to improve this much in a matter of minutes, I wonder if anyone can even compare to him,' she thought as she knew that there weren't a lot of people who had access to such talent.

Having that thought in mind, she continued to look at the speed that he would be clearing this trial and she wasn't sure how such a thing was possible.

She had seen him earlier and it didn't look anything like what was happening right now.

Just what had he changed, Sophia didn't know, but as she had said earlier this person in front of her would be very important in the following years, she was sure of it.

*BEEP*

[You have gained 10 Reputations Points.]

Aiden heard that beeping sound, however, he didn't have the time to glance at those messages as he needed all of his concentration on the challenge which was right in front of him.

'I'll just look at it later, Icicle.'

Then, a few minutes later, Aiden had finished destroying all of the targets and it seemed that he had reached the second challenge of this entrance exam.

He remembered that the director had said that it would be about testing people's innate, so Aiden wasn't too worried about that part.

The only thing that was making him worried was that he would have to spar against someone from this crowd.

He knew that not all of them were impressive, however, a lot of them would be eliminated in the second part of the entrance exam leaving only the strongest candidates.

However, he knew that if it came to it, he would be using his dagger and his assassination skills.

He knew that all the knowledge that he needed would be inside of the academy which is why he would need to make that he would win the sparring at the end.

Maybe his thinking would be different if he had known about what Sophia had thought earlier.

But, at last, he hadn't, so he had no choice but to feel a little bit of pressure.

Then, the last participants were teleported on stage one after another, succeeding and failing.
