Rudrean and Aelira spent over 27 hours in the room doing nothing but training in the three techniques.
Since their physical paraters increased significantly, it was easy for them to stay awake and train for multiple days unless they exhausted themselves completely.
After exiting the training room, they headed straight towards the test rooms.
It was one person per test room, so they entered different rooms and started their tests.
In the test, everyone’s three basic techniques were asured.
Since their missions were B to A rank difficulty, the test was also adjusted accordingly.
First was the test of their Magic Suit.
At every two-second interval, they were attacked by B-rank and A-rank attacks for a total of one minute.
Aelira consud 29% of her total mana during this one minute to block the attacks via her Magic Suit.
Rudrean, who had S in Magic, rely spent 6% of his total mana to block the attacks via his Magic Suit.
The second test was about their agility and attack power with their Body Enchant activated.
In this, they were instructed to hit ten steel dummies of B-rank and A-rank moving around irregularly in the test room, and they had to break them in one or multiple places with a single attack as fast as possible.
Body Enchant at 100% proficiency had the power to increase their physical paraters by 100%. In short, they would be twice as strong physically once Body Enchant of the whole body was activated, so they were expected to destroy the dummies with one attack in this test for the missions they had chosen.
Aelira destroyed all ten dummies within 9 seconds with one punch or one kick.
Rudrean destroyed all ten dummies within 15 seconds.
In this test, Rudrean’s lack of combat proficiency showed when facing the moving dummies.
Both Aelira and Rudrean could destroy the dummies with one attack, so this test also asured their agility by making the dummies move irregularly and quite fast.
Rudrean missed so hits, and due to his lack of combat experience, he couldn’t hit them efficiently and quickly.
In the third test, the room popped out numbers, letters, and symbols on paper boards in different sizes.
After observing 50 of them in one minute, they had to write down all 50 of them on blank paper boards.
This tested Expert Eyes and their cognitive prowess.
In this, Rudrean finished copying down all fifty boards within 14 seconds.
Aelira took 20 seconds.
Both of them erged from their rooms with passing mission tokens.
"It will take 17 hours for us to arrive at the star station. Nice. We can take rest in the spaceship." Aelira said as she looked at their travel details. "Oh, the next departure of the spaceship is in twenty minutes. Perfect."
"Yep. Guess we can reach 100,000 Love Points on the way." Rudrean grinned.
"Naturally." Aelira slapped his butt. "That’s the first thing we’ll do after getting into our room, and then we’ll sleep until we reach our destination."
...
The planet they were heading to was in a different star system.
The Academy didn’t have the technology to craft spaceships that could travel faster than light, so they could only buy them from others.
In total, the Asterisk Arcane Academy had 14 such spaceships in different sizes.
These spaceships couldn’t directly land on any planet of 1-star or above. They had to land in a Star Station in a star system, and then use the transport system of that star system to travel to planets.
That travel wasn’t free, so Rudrean and Aelira were given 1000 low-grade Mana Stones each as that was the ticket price to reach the planet where they would complete their four missions.
Soon, they boarded the spaceship and headed into their small room with separate beds.
But they moved the beds together and started increasing their Love Points.
Four hours later, both of them fell asleep due to exhaustion.
Nine hours later, Rudrean was the first one to open his eyes.
Feeling refreshed after a long rest, he got up and entered the small shower room.
After freshening up, he sat down on the bed and checked his talent.
[Love-Bound Arcane]
—> Aelira.
—> Phoenix Fla S to SS | 100,000 LP.
—> SS-rank Compendium of Fire Spells | 100,000 LP.
’Hmmm, which should I upgrade first?’
Aelira and Rudrean had those two arsenals of power synced.
So if he upgraded Phoenix Fla to SS, both of their Phoenix Fla talents would reach SS. It was the sa with the SS-rank Compendium of Fire Spells.
Rudrean checked the Phoenix Fla of SS first.
[Phoenix Fla | SS]
— Flas that can heal and purify just as much as they can burn.
— Mana to Phoenix Fla Multiplier: 3x.
— Magic Potency Multiplier: 3x.
These two paraters indicated the most important aspect of elental talents.
A Mana to Phoenix Fla multiplier of 3x ant using 100 mana would generate 300 mana worth of Phoenix Fla.
Magic Potency was even more straightforward.
To explain it using an example, if you had S in Magic and you used Mana Bullets worth 100 mana, you would deal 100 damage.
But if you used Phoenix Fla Bullets worth 100 mana, you would deal 250 damage.
The S-rank Phoenix Fla had a 1.5 multiplier in both, but once it upgraded to SS-rank, it would double.
’That’s quite a big power boost. But let’s see the SS-rank spells now.’
Rudrean looked at the compendium of SS-rank fire spells.
’Ten? Nice.’
There were ten SS-rank spells.
— Helios Cataclysm (Small to Large-scale Continuous Spell)
— Absolute Plasma Spear (Precision Spell)
— Infernal Phalanx (Multi-target AOE Spell)
— Cinder Halo: Rotational Blaze Ward (Defensive/Offensive Hybrid Spell)
— Fla Construct: Crimson Pyrofort (Defensive/Counter Spell)
— Judgent: Ashfall Collapse (ga-scale Trigger Burst Spell)
— Absolute Zero Burn (Single-target Spell)
— Blazing Serpent Lock (Control Spell)
— Super Pyrodrive Wings (Mobility Spell)
— Flare Chain Acceleration (Mobility Spell)
’These spells are very powerful.’ Rudrean looked at the spells in detail.
After weighing both options, buying the SS-rank spells would definitely increase their survival chance and performance more than increasing the Phoenix Fla talent to SS.
