/SWOOSH/ /SWOOSH/
In a room filled with dark walls, there was a young boy who was throwing a bunch of fireballs all around him.
A young boy whose hair was pitch black and whose eyes were red.
/SWOOOSH/ /BOOM/
With his hand moving with precise and fast movements, the boy was attacking the dummies in front of him with the fireballs.
/SWISH/
He jumped from the place he was standing, dodging the attack of the golem behind him.
/THUD/
Then with a smooth move, he tapped the head of the golem and jumped back, increasing the distance.
/SWIRL/
Then the flames that were following him all around directed the golem and swirled into it.
/BOOM/
Resulting in an explosion.
However, the golem was, of course, fine.
Because it was built to resist such attacks.
But the boy didn't care.
/SWOOSH/
Dodging the rock that was thrown at him by another golem from a distance, the boy's eyes turned chromatic for a second.
"Let's try this."
Mumbling like that, he started conjuring the mana all around into a sphere.
Mana of four different attributes.
/SWIRL/
The destructive fire mana that was flowing all around him.
/SWISH/
The swift green mana which was very hard to hold.
/TOK/
The reliable brown earthen mana that was used for defenses.
/SWOOSH/
And the flex water mana that would be used for holding all other attributes together.
It was such a magic that could only be used by people whose numbers would not pass the fingers of one hand.
It was a magic that took the form of destruction at the end.
With all those elements flowing among themselves in harmony.
At least, that was what the bot that was controlling those elements was planning to do.
/BOOM/
But the reality was different from what we expected most of the time.
There is no guarantee that the things we want will happen.
Just as it happened there.
With a huge explosion, the sphere that was holding all types of elements exploded while also blasting the boy off at the same time.
/THUD/
And soon, the boy hit the wall and crashed.
"Cough, cough…."
Just as he was coughing, the boy sent his mana to the device that was attached to his pants, and following that, all those golems that were walking around him stopped moving.
"So, it failed, huh? It seems it is still too early for me to try combing other elements into one."
With that mumble, the black-haired boy stood up.
"I guess I should be content with this for today. No need to overly exhaust me either, the academy entrance exam is very soon as well."
And then started walking towards the exit of the room.
Just as he got out of the room, he saw a familiar girl with platinum hair whose ears were pointy.
"Finished your training?"
"Yes."
"Good. You did well."
"I did well…. Hehehe…"
Hearing what the girl in front of him said, even with that slight mumble, the boy named Callius had a smile on his face.
Although the girl with pointy ears was looking at the ground, one could also see the faint traces of redness on her face, with her eyes shining brightly after he praised her.
Just like that, they got out of the room they used for training after paying the bill without talking anymore.
And the moment they got out, the scene that welcomed them was something different from what anybody could expect.
At least nobody would expect such a scene to unfold in front of their eyes, knowing this world was a medieval fantasy type.
People with bright clothes walk on the roads.
It was nothing but abnormal for a city.
The thing that was different from normal was the number of people on the streets.
It was such a crowded place that people might mistake it as a modern earth metropolis.
On top of being crowded, there were also a lot of different things that could be seen there.
Some magicians with green robes flying over, not sticking around to the crowd.
Some magicians with red robes were also flying while blasting themselves underneath.
A huge amount of carriages that were not being pulled by anything were occupying the streets.
Yes, they were not being pulled by anything.
They were moving on their own.
They were the things that were called Magic vehicles, newly invented magical engineering products.
But that was not the end of all.
On top of those things, there were those knights with shining armor that was patrolling around.
The knights were releasing a huge amount of pressure on the passersby citizens.
The liveliness of the city could be seen from there.
A city that was overflowing with people everywhere.
A city whose buildings were reaching the skies.
A city where it was called the center of the world.
A city that was the capital of the strongest force in the world.
A city that was the house of the world's most famous academy.
A city that was the subject of countless poems… Legends… Stories.
It was the city of Aurora, the capital of the Reagan Empire.
And in the middle of that city, the young girl and the young boy entered the crowd, making their way to the place they were staying for the whole time.
Without talking.
As they were walking, suddenly, someone blocked their way.
It was a young man with a shiny outfit and a slightly handsome face whose hair was blue.
Just by looking at it alone, one could see that he was a noble from some country.
"Hello, miss. Would you like to spend some time with me?"
While extending his hand over the girl with pointy ears, he said, looking at her with a charming smile.
At least, that was a smile he thought was charming.
"No."
However, the answer he got was something he was not expecting at all.
A blunt answer that contained close to no emotion.
"What?"
And, to add salt to the wound, the girl passed him while ignoring him at the same time, not even paying a tiny bit of attention to him….
With his ears getting red, the boy jumped over the girl, only to screw himself on his own….
