Trust The Pathfinder 33 Participants Part 1

A crowd composed of students in Combat Magician cla.s.s and Mana Technician cla.s.s were busily discussing the news about the partic.i.p.ants for the upcoming TMAC in front of the bulletin just outside the cafeteria.

A group of four 2nd year students who were in the lower section in cla.s.s were commenting about the decision of the academy for the compet.i.tin.

"No changes on the 3rd year roster for combat magicians?"

An average looking male student commented on the result.

"True, they're still the same team who partic.i.p.ated on last year TMAC."

The opposite female added as she confirms that they were indeed the same tean.

"Well, since they did good as a second year student before, they might get better result this year."

A different male student with ash brown hair commented. They were clearly expecting some changes on the roster at first since the haven't reach the top last year.

"I just hope that we place at least 2nd rank in the overall score at the compet.i.tion."

The last female student said as she voiced out her hope for her academy.

The other three nodded at this because last year, the overall score result for the Leonhearts academy only allowed them to reach the 4th place in the twelve magic academies compet.i.tion.

This time a first year student in Sun Cla.s.s - Combat Magicians neared them and askes about the compet.i.tion. She noticed that the four were wearing 2nd year uniform and has an emblem that identifies them as a student in Sun Cla.s.s. She could't find anyone she knew near the bulletin posted so she approached the 4 higher year student to ask some questions.

"Excuse me seniors. I'm Hilda Calem, a first year student in Sun Cla.s.s - Section 2."

Upon hearing her introduction, they immediately sized her up as they just saw her name in the bulletin. She has short, dark-brown hair reaching her shoulder and wears a pink hair-band over her head. She wore a shy expression as she approached and introduced herself.

"Oh, I've seen your name in the list of partic.i.p.ants!"

"Indeed, Hilda Calem. But you are from section 2? That's unusual."

"Well, maybe she has a lot of potential."

"True, even if she's not from section 1, as long as she's good then that should be fine."

Hilda felt even more embara.s.sed as they were discussing something about her, she just really want to ask something.

"Uhmm. Yes seniors, I'm selected as a partic.i.p.ant. I just want to ask where is the training room were we should be heading to?"

She politely asked since she weren't aware of its location.

Hilda actually felt quite nervous when she saw her name on the list of the partic.i.p.ants for the compet.i.tion. Not only that, for the 5 partic.i.p.ants selected for the 1st year division, she was the only one in Section 2 that was selected as the other 4 were cla.s.smates in Section 1.

Apparently, the compet.i.tion requires 15 combat magician students, since there should be 5 students each year. It is unlike the mana technicians which only needed 3 partic.i.p.ants each cla.s.s year. So 9 student from Moon Cla.s.s will be partic.i.p.ating.

"Oh, so that's it. The training room would normally be used by 2nd and 3rd year students so it's normal you aren't aware."

"Well, Section 1 in first year should also be using that."

"You don't have to say that."

The four student helped Hilda locate the training room. It was still early so she plans to visit the library after confirming it.

***

Wallace is currently in the cafeteria with his cla.s.smates Gilbert, Ericka and Kazimir.

"I really can't believe that you were selected. It feels like there was a conspiracy or bribery that has occured."

It was Ericka who joked. She was really suprised upon seeing Wallace as partic.i.p.ant in their 2nd year team. He will be joined by Tracy and Ross.

"So, it is why you were recently active in our cla.s.s. You have been preparing for this since the start, don't you?"

Gilbert interrogated Wallace who were casually eating his lunch. Kazimir is beside him and only nodded at this, he had been a man of few words since before.

"I just got lucky. I wonder what happened to Mark. He didn't attend today's cla.s.s and had not been selected."

"Indeed, it must be awful."

Wallace didn't explain himself as to how he was chosen since it may take too long. His cla.s.smates will know it soon anyway. He instead diverted the topic to Mark since he was actually expecting that this son of prime minister would actually be selected due to his st.u.r.dy foundation in artifact forging.

"I wonder what happened."

It was the question they all want to ask. Mark Halevey had partic.i.p.ated in the last year compet.i.tion after all, so they were curious about it. But that's all, since it was normal for the academy head to select different partic.i.p.ants as long as they qualify in certain criteria anyway.

Wallace headed to the library as there's still some time before the meeting. Also, he would be busy at the student council since he will be a.s.signed some tasks relating to TMAC after the meeting at Training Room A.

As he neared the library, he activated his divine sense as a habit before entering. He was constantly practicing the usage of this ability since he found it helpful for observation forging, and combat.

Upon activating it, it actually warned him about a powerful magician nearing him. Wallace turned his head back and noticed a 1st year female student approaching him or maybe walking in the same direction as him.

This powerful mana felt the same with a few instructors in the academy. Her level of strength is definitely not low.

But her sensitivity on detection isn't that good since she haven't noticed that Wallace had grasp her strength in a matter of seconds when he activated divine sense. A few times when he tested it to instructors, they will feel something has tried to examine them. Although of course, they couldn't locate where it is coming from.

After Wallace confirmed this, he entered the library to pa.s.s over his time as he needed it to check the notifications from the Pathfinder.

[ Congratulations User! You have made yourself known a little in your Academy due to being selected as a partic.i.p.ant.

"Ohhh... this is great. My affinity increased yet again!"

Wallace felt good as he felt some more changes in his body. He then checked out the 2 mystery boxes and decided to open it now.

"I hope I could get something better than the last time."
