Chapter 135 First-Level Mage Selection Test

Frilian reminded Philon that a mage's strength depends not only on magical power, but also on technique, experience, the magic used and its control, as well as effort and perseverance.

Shutark seems to have acquired some of the qualities of a warrior.

Frillie ignored Little Tomato and said solemnly, "And talent too."

In her entire life so far, she has lost to 11 mages whose magical power is inferior to hers.

Four of them are demons, including the corrupt sage quart who created the "murder magic".

One of them is an elf like myself, and the remaining six are all humans...

The scene changes.

"We should be able to see the towns of the Earl's territory soon."

At the border of Granat territory, a girl with a dark green ponytail spoke in a flippant tone.

Then, as if he had discovered something, he casually remarked that the road to Visaster was truly treacherous, and found a roadside rock to sit on.

Sure enough, three strongmen appeared in front of Yubel, and they took a liking to Yubel's spear-shaped magic wand.

Yubel remarked with a sigh, "Aura had just been attacked, and these people just appeared out of nowhere..."

Just as the bandits were about to make their move, a familiar elf appeared: the monk Kraft. Carrying a bag, he quickly subdued the bandits and warned them that they had better run if they didn't want to die.

"Arigato, we are saved."

Yubel said with a look of relief, but Kraft wasn't buying it. He looked into Yubel's dark purple eyes and said bluntly, "The eyes of a murderer."

He saw the chopped-up corpses of other bandits in the woods, done by a mage with astonishing skill, who had even dug their graves.

Yubel also became serious, stood up, and became wary. The elf in front of him was far beyond the reach of the three bandits from before.

Kraft didn't care. He was an adventurer too, and not so rigid as to interfere in matters of self-defense killing. He had simply saved a few lives on the spot.

Yubel laughed upon hearing this; this uncle was really difficult to deal with.

Upon learning that she was also going to take the Level 1 Magician exam, he couldn't help but think of Frillian. He really looked forward to their next meeting and what kind of story she would have.

The two then walked away from each other, heading towards their respective destinations...

(The true god of concepts has appeared, lol)

(No, it's a crazy woman)

(But this girl's outfit is so cool!)

(The monks are really cool; any evil will be brought to justice!!)

(Damu Damu Damu)

(Why can you guys send voice messages? *facepalm*)

...…

The JOJO world.

DIO's lips twitched. He had a feeling that the light screen was mocking him. The monk elf's voice was so similar to his own, which made him suspicious.

If things are really as he thinks, then things become complicated...

FATE world.

"Sunny boy" Ryunosuke Uryuu pondered:

"The eyes of a murderer? Maybe we'll get along really well."

The big-eyed Caster said to him helplessly, "She'll probably use magic on you."

Amidst the "corpses of death art" scattered throughout the building, the two chaotic villains and their servants engaged in a lively discussion, which, if one disregarded the surrounding corpses, would appear remarkably harmonious...

The scene continues.

Although there was a minor hiccup along the way, an old man who knew his stuff recognized Frillie's "Proof of the Holy Staff".

Frilian and Philon participated in the Level 1 Magician Examination as usual. After two months of research and practice, Frilian and Philon stepped into the examination hall.

As for Cherry Tomato? He stayed at the hotel; the magician assessment isn't his concern for the time being.

In the first round of testing, the examiner, Gennau, a first-level mage, gave a speech, and the examiners on either side of him commented that this year's results were truly remarkable.

Viabel, the captain of the Northern Magic Team and a second-level mage, has been fighting against the remnants of the Demon King's army for many years.

A handsome man with silver hair and silver eyes, dressed in a fur coat and exuding a roguish charm, looked around.

Duncan, a cunning and shrewd second-level mage, emerged victorious from a blood-soaked power struggle and ascended to the throne of court magician.

An old man with brown hair, a fuzzy beard, and a calm expression, wearing a monocle in his right eye.

Philon, the youngest candidate in history, topped the Level 3 Magician Exam and became a Level 3 Magician.

This goes without saying.

The examiner, who wore glasses, adjusted his glasses and remarked that there were also quite a few dangerous individuals among them.

For example, Yubel, a second-level mage who killed a first-level mage examiner during the second-level mage test two years ago and was disqualified from the test.

There were other potential candidates, and after searching around, I came across Fou. Based on my magical judgment, this skilled and experienced mage...

Who is this person?

The long-haired female examiner next to her said she didn't know either.

(A Tang Dynasty veteran covers his mouth and chuckles)

(Haha, former martial arts champion, lol)

(Yubel's experience immediately reminded me of that person, Hisoka, is that you?)

(An elegant old man.)

(Why does Viabel look so villainous when he smiles? *covers face and cries with laughter*)

(Accelerator: A wizard in a magical world, lol)

(Haha, you have to admit they do look a bit alike.)

...

A Certain Magical Index world.

Accelerator was a little confused. The light screen text said that their world had magic?

Accelerator, who hadn't yet experienced Touma Kamijou's "Friendship Shattering Fist," hadn't yet come into contact with magical powers.

Who would have thought that the big boss of Academy City was from the magic side...

Hunter World.

Hisoka, who had just joined the Phantom Troupe, was having some fun on the light screen when his smile froze. There was something else going on with him. Then he remembered that it was the incident where he beat up both the examinee and the examiner.

I'd almost forgotten about him if you didn't mention him, but it led me to meet Xiao Jie, and I'm really looking forward to seeing him again!

However, the leader of the guild is a very interesting person, and I'd really like to have a go at him!

...

The myriad realms finally showed some interest. Although the previous ones were alright, they still loved watching these!

A Level 1 Mage assessment? Hopefully it'll be interesting. Countless powerful figures from all realms slightly opened their eyes, deciding to take a look at what a magic assessment was like.

The first round of testing involved 57 candidates, who worked in small teams of three to participate in the test.

After the bracelets were grouped together, Fufu found her teammate, a girl with long gray hair and a blue dress who looked very elegant, who was pulling the hair of a girl with short orange hair and a white shirt and shorts who was being pressed to the ground.

Fufu: <=w=>, they've started fighting!

On the other side, there's Philen's group: Yubel (Concept Sister) and the short-haired, bespectacled guy with yellow hair (a really sneaky guy).

The team consisted of almost three of the strongest young players, thanks to the excellent matchmaking system...

Upon arriving at the examination venue, we found ourselves in a forest enveloped by a magical barrier.

The conditions for passing the exam are: 1. You must have a cage containing a meteorite bird by sunset tomorrow. 2. All team members must be present at the same time.

The examiner reminded that if any team member leaves the area designated for the examination venue, all members of that team will be disqualified from taking the exam.

"He clearly set up nodules that couldn't even let dust get through to cover this area, how could he say that?"

The girl with short orange hair (Connie) agreed with the gray-haired girl in the blue dress (Lavigne), saying, "How could she possibly get out?"

Watching the two constantly bickering and fighting over the cage, Fufu complained that they listened to her explanations very well.

Lavigne and Connie are both level three mages, childhood friends, and graduates of the same magic academy. However, they seem to dislike each other and are always bickering.

However, this "good" seems to be a sign of a good relationship.

Frillie also learned through a simple test that Connecticut's magical detection skills were inferior to Lavigne's...

I've seen a bit about the meteorite bird Frilian in the book, but I still need to test it in practice.

They found one by the lake, and Frilian planned to observe it patiently for a while, but Connie (the orange-haired girl) used magic directly.

A small waterspout instantly formed on the lake surface, enveloping the meteorite bird.

Fufu: I told you to observe first... It's trying to escape.

Lavigne (the gray-haired girl in the blue dress) confidently replied, "Well done, Connecticut."

As the spherical blue magic wand flashed, the water tornado instantly transformed into an ice pillar, trapping the meteorite bird.

Frillie also praised them, but the test wouldn't be that simple. She pulled them down to squat, and even turned around while they were wondering what was going on.

boom!!

The fist-sized, orange meteorite bird shattered the ice pillar, and the resulting shockwave even split the lake in two!

Fufu explained to them that the meteorite bird's body was extremely hard, and its maximum flight speed even exceeded the speed of sound, so their restraints were useless.

However, seeing their seamless teamwork, Frillie felt that her team seemed to be doing alright, and then the two of them started fighting again.

After that, they began observing the meteorite bird. That night, Connie noticed that even though there was no rain inside the barrier, she could hear the sound of rain. She thought of something that might be useful...

Then she was attacked by a giant bird-like monster (it looked a bit like Filo from The Rising of the Shield Hero), but Frillien noticed in time and used a binding spell to kill it instantly...

Chapter 136 Plans and the Battle

Connecticut confided in Frilian that she was very timid and often felt helpless in crucial moments.

The same thing happened the first time she participated in a magical flight practice. Everyone else had set off, but only Lavigne stayed by her side. She was too scared to fly and wanted Lavigne to praise her.

Although Lavigne seemed reluctant, he still earnestly recounted her merits.

But seeing that she was still squatting in the same spot, Lavigne kicked her down, and she flew up into the air.

"Although Lavillenie is rude, he always leads me forward."

When Frilian heard Connie say that, she smiled. She had a great friend.

Afterwards, Connie told Frilian what she had discovered. Frilian thought about it for a moment and felt that it might be worth a try; perhaps catching the meteorite bird would become much easier...

(The oranges are doing great! *doge*)

(They have opposite personalities but are both tsundere, so cute, makes me smile like an auntie)

(Cute in its straightforwardness.)

(I told you I could just say anything to make sure I get balanced nutrition, like a dog with a flower in its mouth.)

...…

Citrus aromas fill the world.

Yuzu doesn't have time to worry about the light screen right now; she's quite troubled. First, the student council president (Mei) rudely took her phone during the day, and then she witnessed Mei kissing her advisor...

Then, when she got home that night, she discovered that the student council president, Mei, had turned into her "little sister"?! She felt like the sky had fallen; what kind of plot twist was this?!

You thought you'd find a boyfriend as soon as you got to high school, but it turns out to be an all-girls school. Looks like dating and kissing are out of the question...

Yuzu never imagined that her dream would come true so soon, only it would be slightly different...

The world of Frilian.

Seneca and Lavigne seemed fine; they knew perfectly well that the light screen was just a joke, and besides, it was a fact that they were good friends.

However, Lavigne's brothers, who are very fond of their sister, have rather strange expressions. Are they in favor or opposed? It's a real dilemma!

Viabel, Duncan, Yubel, and the others also had different expressions. If things continued to develop this way, it seemed like they might end up facing off against Frilian and her group...

Although I know there might be a huge gap in strength, as a mage, I still really want to have a duel with this legendary mage from the hero's team.

I wonder who will be so lucky/unlucky?

The scene continues.

[Fufu's Memoir by Her Deceased Husband]

"Are you scared, Aize? You're trembling."

On the eve of the first battle against the dragon, by the campfire, Simmel looked at the trembling Azer and prepared to say something to boost morale.

"Afraid."

"Oh, I see. Then... ah? You're scared?"

Simmel was almost caught off guard. He had thought that Aze would say he wasn't afraid again, and he wanted to take this opportunity to boost everyone's morale, but Aze's honesty threw him into disarray.

However, seeing Aize's trembling hands, Simmel decided to do it his own way; he was actually scared too.

Simmel sat down, having originally intended to imitate the other adventurers' morale-boosting actions, but it seemed she had failed...

Aize said that after hearing him say that, he wasn't so nervous anymore.

Haita also comforted him, saying that he should just stay natural, and that the way adventure partners are encouraged is definitely different for each person.

Back to the present.

Fufu, who was keeping watch, looked at the two little ones in red and blue and smiled slightly. So that's how it is. The way to encourage someone really does vary from person to person.

It was another day when Fufu thought of Simmel.

On the other side, the Philen team captured the Meteor Bird, but the real ordeal was yet to come.

Yubel gave a wicked smile; it was time to fight, and she was clearly very excited.

At dawn, meteorite birds fly at speeds exceeding the speed of sound, but they possess almost no magical power; simply put, they are "physically sanctified."

With the examinees chasing after it everywhere, the meteorite bird is becoming increasingly difficult to catch.

However, Frilian had a solution: "Bird-catching magic." This magic originated from the folk magic prevalent in ancient times. It's somewhat conceptual; it can catch anything bird-shaped, and it's perfectly fine for catching meteorite birds.

However, it has a drawback: its magic range is only 50cm...

Upon hearing about Senegal's magic, Frillie had a brilliant idea.

The richest water source in the examination area is the large lake in the center. The surrounding rivers are mostly dry, and there may be some small puddles, but I don't know where they are.

Philon's group also discovered this situation. Candidates can bring their own water, but Meteor Birds are not allowed. If someone were to tamper with that...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The moment the attacking magic beams appeared, Philon blocked them all. To put it simply, it was a matter of attack! Penetration! Defense! Defense! The offense and defense were completed in an instant.

Yubel smiled excitedly, sensing the presence of someone very interesting.

The newcomer was none other than Viabel, the captain of the Northern Magic Force who had been fighting against the remnants of the Demon King's army for many years, and a top candidate for the assessment.

A pervert versus a rogue, their wands clashing, sparks flying—neither of them looks like a good person.

His teammate Shelfe (a level 3 mage who manipulates flower petals) is paired with the bespectacled guy, while Ereshkigal (a level 2 mage who is also a genius girl) is paired with Philon.

Viabel was also helpless; he had just been about to kill someone, yet he still managed to react.

Just as they were about to start fighting, a huge column of water shot into the sky from the center of the forest lake with a "bang," attracting everyone's attention.

Then the team guarding the lake watched in utter bewilderment as a girl in a blue dress (Lavillenie) froze the entire lake...

(Can react to bullets, lol)

(Why do mages always like to fight in melee? Viabel charged straight in, covering her face and laughing and crying.)

(As everyone knows, mages always have a melee mentality, like a dog carrying a flower.)

(Here, Fat Wheel not only noticed the sneak attack, but also anticipated the trajectory of the magic bullet and deployed his shield in advance.)

(After all, Old Fu had specifically trained in this area, and Philon was naturally very talented in it.)

(Ice Age)

(They're all ruthless; they just blew up the lake.)

...

The curse returns to the world.

Louhu looked at the familiar scene, his neck still aching slightly, it was very similar to Hubao's unfortunate lake.

Recently, the strength of the Jujutsu High School has increased significantly. Although their strength has also increased, Gojo Satoru, this bug, has not been fixed, which makes their current situation quite frustrating.

For some reason, Gojo Satoru has worked several times harder than before, and now he goes all out whenever he sees them. Hu Bao always feels that it's because of this "Xia Youjie" that they're suffering so much.

However, upon hearing that "Xia Youjie" had a backup plan, Hu Bao didn't pursue the matter further. It would be best if the plan worked; otherwise, it wouldn't mind teaming up with Hua Yu and the others to kill it...

If all else fails, we'll supply it to Wutiaowu. Hu Bao always felt that this "Xia Youjie" was a bit dangerous.

FATE world.

A disliked candidate for Grand Caster asked why a mage would want to fight in melee combat.

In his own words, he wasn't good at magic to begin with; he'd bite his tongue if he chanted even a little too fast. Beating him up with a holy sword would be much simpler and more straightforward, wouldn't it?

The Israeli boxing champion and Ukrug the axe king agreed, saying that fists and axes are much more effective than magic, lol.

...

Lavigne left immediately after casting her spell, but if you look closely, you'll see that she was heading in a clear direction towards a certain place.

Most of the teams by the lake immediately unsealed the lake, but Duncan realized that this was a waste of energy. With such a large-scale use of magic, the meteorite bird would not approach this place for the time being.

Duncan guessed that Frillian's team must have a plan to handle such a large-scale situation, since they wouldn't be known as cunning or shrewd.

So go steal their meteorite birds!

Then Duncan, along with Richter (a middle-aged-looking second-level mage who controls the earth) and Laofen (a second-level mage with brown and orange bun hair), headed into the forest...
