The Conquerors Path Chapter 603-The Exams(3)

Chapter 603-The Exams(3)

After the little banter between me and the system, I set on to solve the paper. I wasn't afraid that the system wouldn't help me, for I know the system now better than anyone else. While it likes to play around with me a bit at times, in the end, it's a very trustworthy companion that will always help me. But still, it hasn't earned 100% of my trust.

After all, how can I trust something that is always hiding something or the other from me? But, for now, I am happy with what I have. Thus, time went by as I kept solving each and every part of the question paper. My flow was smooth and unhurried as I kept solving the question paper that would make even some of the most studious academics sweat.

Thus, 4 hours went by in a flash, and I had finished my paper, an hour earlier than the allocated time given to me. Thus, with a smile, I placed the paper down on the table as I spoke to the room.

"I'm done."

"Are you sure?"

A voice directly spoke to me, it being filled with a lot of suspicion to which I just smiled.

"I'm sure."

I spoke, and that was all that was needed for the paper to disappear from the table.

"You can head towards the next part of the exam or take some rest."

"I will take the next exam."

I directly spoke, to which the door to the white room opened up, my teacher appeared in front of the door with a wry smile as he spoke.

"Follow me."

Giving a nod, I stood up from my seat and turned to a specific location in the room as I gave a light bow.

"Thanks for the exam."

Enjoying the shocked auras that were rising, I walked out of the room along with my shocked teacher, enjoying playing around with all these powerful figures always trying to test the younger generation. I ain't your protagonist to always go along with the smooth s.h.i.+t that you throw my way.

However, it was still fun because, for the whole time I answered the exam, the eyes, powers, and auras of all the powerful people were fully focused on me, all of them trying to detect a hint of any mana activation to see if I would cheat. Sadly for those hard workers, I copied my way through it all smoothly even with all the precautions in place.

'Aren't I an inspiration to all cheaters?'

[More like a bad symbol.]

'Hushhh... it's you who don't understand the thrill of copying in the exam with bits and everything and walking out of there with your head held high at the thought you weren't caught.'

The moment itself feels like an achievement.

[Sure....sure.....though you do know that the other tests can't fully be cheated, right?]

'Yeah, I know.'

Thinking till here, my eyes narrowed. As I said, I don't really like the idea of being tested like some animal for these old fogies that want to uncover all the secrets within me. The test itself was a push of capabilities, trying to test my mind to the limit of what I could do. In fact, they went far beyond the limit of the mind of any student.

And I do not doubt that they won't try to make the other tests more physical and extremely hard or broken to see how much they can push me.

'Well, two can play at that game.'

Musing to myself at the tricks that I would be pulling, I kept walking with my teacher, who still seemed to be in shock about everything that kept happening.

"So what's my test now?"

I asked, bringing my teacher out of his daze as he spoke.

"Since we have accessed your theoretical knowledge, we are now going to a.s.sess how you can implement them in the prospects of your position."

"You mean my position as the son of the Lionheart duchy and the young leader of the Archery a.s.sociation?"

I asked, to which my teacher nodded his head.

"You will definitely move to be a great pillar of the world. If it was in the past, we would have just fully accessed your skill in handling some problems related to the power and position you can come to hold, but now that won't truly work."

Speaking till here, we reached another room, a moment of silence falling between the two of us as my teacher continued.

"But the current situation of the world is different, and you are blessed with far too much talent and powers that can come to shape the world from whatever is coming to hit it. Moreover, you possess a quality that can change the foundation of the world..."

Stopping till here, his eyes peered at me with pa.s.sion. Seeing this, I asked.

"And what is this quality that I possess?"

"The quality of a hero."

Saying this, the teacher pushed open the door, my eyes coming up on two teachers staying in the center of the room with a floating orb in the middle. The room itself once again is fully white and needlessly clean, both the aura of the teachers being at the peak of Origin level 10.

'Perhaps even a half step into the Imperial realm.'

Narrowing my eyes at this thought, I walked into the room while my teacher stayed outside, his good wishes filling my ears as I gazed at both the teachers—one being male while the other being a woman. The male was a demon with red hair and red eyes and cracked grey skin along with four big horns growing out, his face being quite sharp with a talon of a nose. While with the female is a beautiful elf with blonde hair and green eyes.

"I pay respect to my teachers."

I spoke in a calm tone while giving a light nod. The two of them gave it back to me, the demon being stoic while the elven beauty of a teacher had a light gentle smile as she spoke.

"Student Austin, my name is Trisa, and this is Lork. Both of us will be the ones to lead on with the illusion twist that we shall be presenting."

I nodded my head at Trisa's words as I kept listening.

"You shall be thrown into a chosen scenario, the greater details of which you shall come to understand when you enter the illusion. This will mostly focus on sharpening your will and making you take tough decisions."

Giving a nod, I asked.

"Will I be able to use my powers in this illusion?"

My eyes narrowed at this question, to which Lork replied with his rough voice.

"No, the powers you can use and your position will already be set. This is to see how you will fare into truly despairing situations, to see whether you shall break or grow stronger."

"Which means that the situation will change according to your situation, and you shall even control the illusion to match how things will go to break me."

I asked with an accusing voice, to which Lork remained silent, while Trisa's gentle smile remained the same. Seeing this, a small desire to punch their faces formed within me, but I held it within myself, for it would be more satisfying to break all the challenges they threw at me.

So, a smile started to grace my face as I responded.

"Sure, let us begin the test then."

With this, Trisa nodded her head, that irritating gentle smile not leaving her face as she responded.

"Good, then you shall place your hand on this...o...b.. While your mind will travel to it, your body shall be here. Don't worry, it will be completely safe."

'Yeah, I ain't trusting you, bozos.'

Thinking so, I focused on Farah inside me.

'If anyone makes any funny moves, deal with it depending on the situation. But if you detect killing intent, then kill without question.'

'Of course, master.'

Hearing Farah's reply, I smiled as I placed my hand on the orb, and just as I did, the world went blank for me.
