Chapter 251: Spirit of Destiny
Matt looked at Richard in shock, and Alice was even stunned.
Had they been approved so easily?
Getting into the Spirit Academy wasn't going to be complicated? What the hell was going on here?
Everyone was shocked, but they had nothing to say after seeing the color blue light up twice on two different people. Although not everyone could hear what Richard had said, those who heard it were in shock, thinking how amazing these two people were.
Artifact Controllers are not common in this world. In fact, it is complicated to find one, even in the entire Spiritual Academy, which is the Academy of the Empire that sponsors the most Artifact Controllers.
There is a reason for this. It has been proven that those who control Artifacts and have the potential to summon spirits can summon powerful spirits more easily than the rest.
That is more evident if we consider that the greatest summoner of the Spirit Academy, a woman they call The Great Spirit Summoner, is an Artifact Controller with immense potential.
She summoned a spirit that is said to be able to fight the Founder of the Academy, although those rumors have not been confirmed. That is why everyone who heard this was stunned.
Even Mason Webb was shocked after this, yet Matt and Alice ignored it.
Since they had passed, there was nothing more to say.
'And to think it would be so easy to get into this academy.' Matt thought, smiling a little.
After that little event, those who had passed, except Mason, looked at Matt and Alice respectfully. Some seemed interested in making friends, but they knew their status and the status this half-elf duo would have in the near future. That kept them from approaching.
And 15 minutes later, a teacher came running in here.
"Where, which ones are they?" the professor asked as he landed next to Richard.
He smiled at him and then approached Matt and Alice. "Students, this is Professor Robert. He is in charge of Students who use Magical Artifacts to summon, and he also teaches those interested. You can follow him to complete the enrollment requirements. He will explain everything else to you," he said.
"They are named Zen Varrmar and Aelia Varrmar, Professor Robert."
After the presentation, Professor Robert was effective and grabbed Matt and Alice to take them with him.
"See you around, Professor Richard. If another one shows up, let me know. These people are precious." After that, Robert flew off with Matt and Alice in tow.
He didn't speak for that entire time until he landed in a secluded courtyard and looked them up and down.
"Were you both trained to use Magical Artifacts? I can sense you have some power." Robert asked.
Matt shook his head. "No, we were self-taught. I was always interested in researching Magical Artifacts and since we happened to get some, I decided to look into them and realized that we are both very compatible with them." He replied.
Robert's eyes twinkled slightly, showing slight excitement after hearing this. "Boy, you're not that old. Can you research Magical Artifacts until you discover compatibility?" he asked in surprise, and Matt smiled sheepishly.
"Something like that, Professor Robert."
Although he spoke with some embarrassment and acted as such, Alice could tell he was faking it in all of this.
'What's he planning?" she thought curiously, though she didn't ask the question, noticing that Robert was too interested in what Matt had said.
"Okay, come with me. Let's check you in and see which classroom fate puts you in. If you stay in my classroom, it would be best; I could teach you both well." He replied and walked into the building where he was.
'Fate?' Matt thought doubtfully and followed him closely.
The three of them walked down a long corridor, where they saw some teachers walking back and forth.
After walking for a while, the professor stopped in front of a massive door and knocked on it softly.
"I am Professor Robert, come to search and seek the fate of two students." After saying this, he waited patiently.
Soon, two women came out to greet them.
"Professor Robert, it's strange for you to come so soon, as I understand even the first test is not over, isn't it? What kind of talented student are you this time?" One of them asked as she ushered him in.
"Ma'am, this time, it's two students who control Magical Artifacts and have a blue maximum compatibility. Zen and Aelia." He said, introducing them.
"Miss Aelia seems to have a perfect match, which is amazing. Also, from what he told me, Young Zen can research Magical Artifacts. They are too talented a duo to let them register so slowly." Robert smiled after saying this, and after giving Matt and Alice a look, the woman returned to her place.
"Do all the procedures while I test their fate." She spoke.
The first thing they did was basic registration procedures: Registering first and last names, where they currently lived, and similar things of little importance.
Besides, Matt and Alice had to finish paying the registration fee; otherwise, they were tedious procedures.
Still, in the meantime, the woman sitting there was doing various things, causing the mana in the room to shake vigorously from side to side. The mana became wind that shook everything in this huge room.
She soon created a magical inscription with her hands and threw it into the air, causing a huge bolt of lightning to strike in the middle of the room.
At the same time, an ethereal appearance several times larger than a human appeared above the room.
"¡Oh, Spirit of Destiny, please show me your power one more time!" Said the woman, causing the spirit being summoned to open her eyes gently. It was a female spirit with a partially strange beauty and four eyes on her face.
Each eye was arranged as if it could see everything.
The Spirit of Destiny then created a small domain beneath her, which glowed with a sky-blue hue.
The woman then nodded to Matt and Aelia.
"You can both go in together. This is the way we use to figure out which classroom to put you in."
