Matthew woke up from his sleep with a hungry stomach. He remembered last night that he had not eaten at all. He is obviously hungry now.
Last night he wanted to wait for John to come back and ask what happened to the two people from Black Shadow. However, he was defeated by drowsiness. In the end, he fell asleep following his two younger siblings.
Now Matthew wants to hear directly from John about last night. After clearing himself, Matthew headed straight to the room that John was staying in. Not yet he knocked on the door of the room, John had already opened it first.
“I already know that you're the one who came to my room. Now enter. I have something for you.” said John let Matthew into his room.
“What about Grandpa John's last night? Did you manage to subdue those two people?” ask Matthew.
“No, I don't subdue them.”
“Eh, you didn't manage to subdue them? Did they run away first?” ask Matthew.
“I've killed both of them. Here, the spoils of war for you.”, said John as he handed over the sword, stick, and two pockets of space he got last night.
“It belongs to two Black Shadow members I killed last night. You could have all that. You can also hand over the other two pockets of space to your two sisters, I'm sure they'll be happy to accept all of that.” explains John.
“Eh this for me? Why did you give it to me, Grandpa John? I didn't do anything, did I? I'm not entitled to accept any of this.”
“Of course you deserve it. If you don't provide that important information, then right now many people from Andradius Academy will be injured, maybe even fall at the hands of those two.”
“Not only that, there will also be many children who they will kidnap. It's appropriate that you get this gift. In fact I think you should have gotten more of this.” explains John.
“Now wake up your two brothers. We need to get ready. I will take you to go see the test run held in front of the field in front of the palace. You guys get ready.” pinta John.
Matthew kept all John's gifts. He would not give it to his two brothers. Matthew will sort through the contents of the pocket of space that John gave.
His two younger siblings would definitely spend all the money that was in there if he gave up everything. Someone who plunges into the professional world spends quite a lot of money. So Matthew as much as possible skimp from now on.
He and his two brothers have many elements. So far, Matthew has not found a neutral weapon that can be used for all elements. If it did not exist, then the weapons they would buy would be even more decent.
…
The field where the selection was held was filled by teenagers aged dozens of years. Some of them were seen being accompanied by their families. Some just hang out with their peers.
They come from a variety of diverse backgrounds. Just look at the clothes they've been wearing that show all.
Tents large enough to be seen standing in the middle of the field. Maybe the tent is used as a place to pass selection tests. Matthew thinks the test this time is an open test. But if the tests were conducted inside the tents, there was not much Matthew could see.
A registration table is seen starting to be prepared. It seems like everything hasn't really started yet. The registration desk is just now set up.
“As previous years. This time the test is just the element and age. For tiers checking, it is usually done at Andradius.” Academy Obviously John.
“Usually when approaching the check will be many prospective students who drink potions to be able to help them level up. So checking someone's level is done at Andradius.” Academy added John.
It makes sense, Matthew says. One's element won't change that fast. Different from the level of a person.
There are many ways one can increase one's level of strength. It can be temporary or permanent. So, it would be very unfair for those who might just be in the later stage test, to be able to reach Bronze IV level.
“Ah so it is.” Nothing interesting if it is like that. Matthew already understood such a test process. Didn't John ever do it to himself and his two younger brothers?
Matthew is now beginning to carry out his main purpose of coming here. The main purpose here is not actually to see the test run. Rather than observing those who take the test.
Matthew wanted to observe the elements that the prospective students had. He could have met the owner of the element of life here.
Matthew wants to take advantage of their situation which is still considered a beginner in the professional world. He wants to approach and make friends with the owner of the element of life in order to ‘utilize him’ to train the elements of life and earth elements that are not owned by him or his two younger siblings. Especially a fairly rare element of life.
If the child has become a professional, then Matthew is difficult to approach. If Matthew wants to approach him, the only way is to reveal the elements they have. And Matthew doesn't want to do that.
You understand not that a teenager in general is still exploding like a mountain that will erupt. It is likely that the owner of the element of life will be arrogant and feel above everyone just because it has a very rare element. And Matthew doesn't want to deal with people like that.
Let's say Matthew is cunning, but Matthew intends ‘trapping’ the owner of the element of life depends on him and his two younger siblings. It's nothing just for the sake of smoothness himself and his two younger siblings learn the element.
That's because learning new elements of using weapons doesn't work well. So he went back to his original plan, looking for someone who had other elements. These calculations confirm the connection.
If the child has a good attitude, then Matthew will be sincerely friends with him. But if the boy was being arrogant, Matthew would not be willing to approach him.
He can still learn the elements of life, albeit longer, without the owner of the elements of life. So there's no way they're not too troubled for Matthew. He has another candidate to help them, Tom.
“Grandfather John, can We see the existing test run? I want to find a friend here. Who knows I could find someone to be friends with.”
“Me and my two sisters don't socialize much, so I want to take advantage of this momentum to befriend a child my age. In the academy later obviously We need friends our age is not?”
John nodded his head slowly. “Caused too. All right, you can see it. But it seems like it hasn't started yet. So you guys just go around.”
“If you want to get into the tent, bring this token of mine so you can get in and out easily.” said John while handing a jade slip to Matthew.
“Thank you Grandpa John. I'll return it to you after we're quite satisfied looking around here.”
“Sure. I'll wait for you in the main tent. If you are confused which is the main tent, just ask those who are on guard.” explained John.
