Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 320: Reassessment Test (2)

Evelyn drew closer to the giant affinity identification crystal. She placed her hand there like the rest of the students after getting permission from the senior teacher. She closed her eyes, flowing her magic energy regularly and gradually.

As the crystal started to give off a white light, she opened her eyes and looked up. She smiled with a pleased expression when she saw the display of her current level.

[| Lv. 23 |]

A moment later, the display of her level disappeared, and the crystal changed color from pure white to bright purplish-blue. It was bright enough to dazzle Evelyn herself.

Shortly after that, the crystal color changed to bright green, golden, red, and light blue at five-second intervals. However, the last two lights appeared much fainter than the first two.

As soon as the crystal returned to its semi-transparent white color, the senior teacher stroked his beard and commented. "Hmm, that's amazing. You've gone up two levels in the past month or so, young girl. Your body is extraordinarily compatible with the lightning element and very supportive of the wind element. Medium for Holy Magic. Then, low affinity for water and fire elements."

Evelyn just heaved a sigh with a faint smile and paid her obeisance. Then, she went to the nearby appraisal magic device. After following the procedure by filling in her own name and allowing herself to be scanned, she finally received her privilege card.

Just like a wish came true, a gold card popped out from the side of the appraisal magic device. The instructor handed it to Evelyn with an approving nod while looking at his black screen. "Evelyn Mitchell, it looks like your abilities have improved a lot. Since you have upgraded your talent grade, you will get a new dorm room setup and many more. That information is available on your privilege card. Please check it later."

Evelyn didn't know what appeared on the other black screen on the instructor's side. Still, she just received her privilege card with satisfied expressions. "Thank you, instructor."

Evelyn put her privilege card in her pocket before returning to her original position in the line next to her best friend.

"Congratulations to you, Eve. I'm glad to see you happy." Elysia smiled softly to answer her friend's aura of happiness.

"En, thanks, Ely. I'm so excited to have my talent upgrade this soon." Evelyn smiled and closed her eyes with high excitement. She even shook her hands unconsciously because of the happiness she got.

"Mm, you have practiced diligently in the last month, Eve." Elysia recalled the resource Pope Alexander gave to her and her friends. It did so much for Ella and Evelyn, but not her.

Then, Elysia remembered the affinities Evelyn possessed. "Oh, Eve... You apparently have a very high affinity for lightning and the two other elements. Why are you focused only on the wind element?"

"Hehe, that's a bit sad, right? I'm afraid to use the magic that suits me the most? Sigh... After I get proficient with the wind element, I'll try fire and water even if my affinity is not that high for that element." Evelyn sighed with a self-deprecating smile.

"It's okay, Eve. If you're not ready, then follow your heart. The best path will come to you when you believe in yourself." Elysia tried to cheer her friend.

Evelyn just nodded with a smile to show her appreciation.

After that, they went back to watching the students who were undergoing the reassessment test. It didn't take long until Serena's turn came.

As Serena walked towards the crystal, several pairs of curious girl's eyes immediately fell on Serena alone.

Elena was excited to see the results and the reactions that would happen later. Meanwhile, Evelyn smirked and gave a clue about Serena to the girls around her.

Serena touched the crystal, and a white light shone. The level was then displayed for everyone to see.

[| Lv. 22 |]

Serena took a deep breath as she looked at her current level. Thanks to the two rare resource packs she used in the past month, it had increased by one.

As the level disappeared and the crystal began to change color, Serena channeled her magic energy in a large flow. She hoped that all the elements compatible with her would glow brightly.

Unfortunately, that was a fruitless effort because the affinity identification crystal only worked to assess quality, not quantity.

The first light that appeared was a relatively bright purplish blue, followed by a brown color. Only that, and the crystal dimmed to its original state.

"Good quality for the lightning element and low affinity for the earth element. You go up one level, huh... Nevertheless, you can go to the magic device over there." The senior teacher muttered softly, but Serena could still hear him. He was aware of what this girl was doing, but he didn't want to embarrass her.

Serena just sighed and paid her obeisance. After that, she went to the appraisal magic device in the form of a black screen. She did as instructed, and a silver privilege card came out as a result.

Surprisingly, the instructor just gave the card to Serena without saying anything. On the other hand, Serena could only grit her teeth when she found out she had yet to reach gold-grade talent. Even after two complete packages of platinum-grade resources.

"What, wait... Miss Serena got a silver privilege card instead of platinum? What in the world?"

"How did that happen? What really happened? Was that black screen magic device broken or something?"

"Yeah, how could someone get a talent downgrade."

The first graders who didn't know anything muttered in whispers to each other with both astonishment and surprise.

"Miss Evelyn, what really happened? Is this what you meant earlier?" Joanna asked the girl in front of her.

"En! As you can see, Serena cheated by stealing the privilege card belonging to another student in our class. That's what actually happened." Evelyn looked back and covered half of her mouth in a whisper. Yet, it sounded pretty clear to the surrounding girls.

"What? That's really mean. Doesn't Miss Serena feel sorry for that poor student?"

"Miss Serena was proudly showing off her platinum-grade talent, but it actually belongs to another student. What the worst thing to do."

"No way, I think that magic device isn't working very well."

"Yes, I think it that black screen possibility could not assess the value of Miss Serena's abilities."

The debate started to spread among the first graders after Joanna, and her circle of friends blurted out due to shock.

Some students couldn't believe that Serena got the silver card. They started an argument with the other and made a scene. They demanded another retest for Serena.

On the other hand, Serena did not dare to return to the line because of the commotion. She just stood near the appraisal magic device, not knowing what to do.

"Silence!" Teacher Ruth exclaimed with firmness, but she had an angry expression on her face.

"It was already a headache for me when I found out that one student in my class had violated the academy rules. Are you someone great with high authority to doubt the credibility of our academy which Emperor Arthur had arranged with the help of Holy Grandfather?" Teacher Ruth asked that with a hint of annoyance.

"So, please be quiet and don't cause trouble. You can ask Serena directly in a friendly manner when you've all left the field." Teacher Ruth closed her warning with a conclusion and turned to the front. If the uproar really broke out, she worried about Serena's fate.

The first-year students just looked at each other and no longer demanded another reassessment for Serena. After that, Teacher Ruth called Serena to get back into the line. Then, the reassessment test was continued again.

Simultaneously, the clueless seniors who were watching on the grandstands were also muttering amongst themselves in their own assumptions. They couldn't hear what was happening to the first graders.

All they knew was a girl with a silver card just stiffly stood near the appraisal magic device, and the first-year students argued with each other. Nevertheless, it only took a moment, and the reassessment test resumed as if the previous case had never happened before.

Serena returned to her original position while looking at the ground. She didn't dare to look at the gaze that aimed at her.

Cora and Nico were in front and behind their master as if ready to protect if anything untoward happened. Yet, they knew that it would only happen when they left the field. They could only hope for the best way out. Or, if possible, they expected Miss Elysia to speak up to reconcile the situation.

'Muahaha... Look at that scared and anxious expression. The girl got a mental attack? It's because of her own actions, and the pressure comes from her circle of friends. Ely, do you want to add fuel to the fire?' Elena burst out laughing to see Serena's initial reaction.

'That's a bad thing to do, Sister Elena. Allow me to step in when things get out of hand later. In any case, we're not at all harmed and just think of it as my fault too. I was too scared when I thought about going to school again. After all, Serena is just an arrogant and proud little girl who just wants to get everyone's attention. Please have a little mercy for her.' Elysia gently reminded her excited sister.

She felt a little sorry when she looked at Serena because she saw the problem partly as her fault too.

'Well, you are too kind, Ely. Because of that, you were often bullied in the past. Sometimes, the ones you are trying to help don't expect help or mercy. They just need a push to get up.' Elena shook her head with a sigh.
