None of them were hurt. The shockwave simply passed through them as it covered the whole Lightning Departnt building in a do of purple lightning.
"Y-You started the Lightning Departnt's defensive magic array all by yourself!?" Galak exclaid in disbelief.
"What?"
Lawrend's eyes went round as he stared back at him. He thought that it was just a simple magic array to test his magic.
"A-Amazing…"
The other instructors in the room stared at Lawrend in amazent. They were all lightning mages in here.
Starting this magic array was harder than you would think. It's easy to light it up halfway but it becos progressively harder. It would take almost all of them just to start it all the way.
"A prodigy! Elena, there's another prodigy besides you!" Galak shouted.
"Yes, Instructor," Elena replied with a bow.
'As expected of Master,' Elena thought to herself proudly.
"That's natural for a human like him," Ramiela comnted.
He was the only human who was able to impress her. She even thought that he was a god which was embarrassing.
"Fufufufu." Aezel laughed proudly.
She doesn't need to say anything. It was as she had expected.
"They will finally know Master's worth. At last," Aleshia said.
"That's correct, Sister Aleshia." Elena nodded her head in agreent.
"Lawrend, where did you get that Beginner Mage spell!?" an instructor asked him crazily.
"Why?" Lawrend raised an eyebrow.
"I know who made that," the instructor replied.
"Soone gifted it to ," Lawrend replied truthfully.
Since he's already strong enough, he didn't worry that they would find fault with him for getting it from a black market. Although, he technically got it as a gift after he taught the seller so magic knowledge.
"Seriously? I've never been able to find it. Who gave it to you?" the instructor asked him in surprise.
"How do I say it… Soone with a black hood gave it to when I was traveling," Lawrend replied awkwardly.
His description wasn't gonna be of help. It made him feel embarrassed since it seed that the creator of the Beginner Mage spell was important to the instructor.
"What..? I've been trying to find this magic spell of my older brother. I never thought soone would just give it away," the instructor said in a daze.
"You're his brother?" Lawrend widened his eyes in surprise.
"Yes. My na is Xervius. My older brother was the late Arch Mage Klustervius. He was a talented mage of the kingdom that died in a war against a neighboring kingdom," Xervious replied.
Xervius was a middle-aged man that had sprinkles of white on his hair. Like all the instructors in this room, he was an Arch Mage.
"Wow. I'm thankful for your older brother's creation of this magic spell. It helped improve as a lightning mage," Lawrend said as he bowed to him respectfully.
The Beginner Lightning Mage spell was very simple, but it was also flexible. Lawrend had found many uses for it in the past. He even managed to create a True Mage version. The creator definitely deserves his respect.
"I'm sure he'd be glad… You're so talented. I hope to see more from you in the future," Xervius replied to him solemnly.
"Yes. You don't have to worry about that." Lawrend raised his head and smiled at him.
"Good! I like your confident attitude!" Xervius exclaid happily.
"Lawrend, since you're a Third-Year now, you won. We'll be giving the Mana Stones to June later," Galak said.
He wasn't sad or angry. In fact, he was happy. He was proud that their Lightning Departnt had soone as talented as Lawrend.
"About that, I want to take the test to beco a Fourth-Year," Lawrend replied with a wry smile on his face.
"What!?" Galak shouted in disbelief.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at him clearly.
"Don't tell you're also confident in it?" Galak asked.
"Hahahaha… I just rembered sothing," Lawrend replied with a laugh.
He rembered that Elena was about to beco a Fourth-Year soon. He might as well beco one right now. This way, he would beco even more talented in their eyes.
Once he gets their recognition, it would be easier for him to take the throne next month. After all, they would be hopeful of his future. A future with a very talented king.
"...Alright." Galak nodded his head solemnly.
The other instructors in the room beca dead silent. They were excited about Lawrend's success but hearing his words made them feel overwheld.
This would be the first-ever mont in the history of the academy that soone would jump from the First-Year directly to the Fourth-Year in one day.
"I will supervise your test," a voice said.
Everyone in the room turned their heads and looked towards the entrance. There was a man wearing a purple cloak. He exuded an invisible aura of power around him.
"T-The Purple Thunder Grand Mage!" June exclaid.
Instantly, everyone in the room widened their mouths in shock. They were all Arch Mage's here that were stuck for years to dozens of years.
They were all respectful to him, who could ascend to beco a Grand Mage.
"Sir," Lawrend called out to him.
"Mm. I didn't expect you to co here instead of coming to . You're already an Arch Mage, right?" Verkoli said.
What he didn't know was that Lawrend wasn't an Arch Mage yet. It's because of the power of his Divine Lightning that his High Mage strength seed like an Arch Mage strength to Verkoli.
"I planned to co after this," Lawrend replied.
"Well… In my eyes, you're already worthy of being a Fourth-Year and even graduation, but for formality's sake, I'll still test you," Verkoli said.
"My pleasure," Lawrend replied.
"Good." Verkoli nodded his head in satisfaction.
anwhile, Ramiela was furrowing her eyebrows as she stared at Verkoli. She could feel the strength brimming inside his body.
"A powerful human…" Ramiela comnted.
As for the others, they were all awestruck. At this point, they wouldn't be surprised if Lawrend succeeded.
The Purple Thunder Grand Mage already acknowledged him, and they seem to know each other. That was enough to satisfy them.
"Test Master, explain what he has to do to beco a Fourth-Year," Verkoli said as he looked at Galak.
