The next day, Rain prepared to return to the academy with Cristina.
But his father or mother could not accompany them, because both were busy dealing with the chaos that occurred yesterday, when Rain's father killed Renald or his uncle.
Rain departed from the wolford family residence in the morning, and arrived at the academy 2 days later in the evening.
After arriving at the academy, Rain headed straight to the room in his dorm and immediately went to sleep, as it was also midnight.
The next morning, Rain lives life in the academy as usual, with her daybreak accompanying her as well of course.
While Rain was watching the teacher explaining a lesson in the classroom, suddenly a committee member entered the classroom and asked permission to call Rain, Lilia, Ciel, Haris, and so on, and also Isabella as a committee member who is in a special class.
Rain and the summoned students immediately walked out of the classroom and followed the committee members who called out to him.
"Sister, what exactly are we called for?" Lilia asked the committee members who called out to them.
"Well, you'll know later" replied the committee member.
Moments later, they finally arrived at the sports hall, and it was seen that many committee members from other classes had also gathered in the room.
"Rain, you're finally here." There was a female voice that when Rain looked towards the source of the voice, it was Hera.
"Oh, Hera!" Said Rain.
"Rain, why haven't you been seen lately?." Said Hera.
"Oh, about that, I came home yesterday for about a week" replied Rain.
"By the way, why are all the committee members gathered here?" Ask Rain.
"Well, in a few weeks, there will be an inter-academic tournament from all over the Ethiopian kingdom held once every 2 years, and the king will also be present to watch, even if only the final, as well, therefore we are here to be selected, to determine who will represent our academy in the tournament" replied Hera.
"Oh, I see, how many people can represent the academy?"
"Ten people, who will be sent to represent our academy," Hera said.
Rain just nodded hearing that. Shortly afterwards, Edward's voice sounded which made the atmosphere in the sports room that was initially noisy, become silent.
"Begging your attention, you must be confused as to why you were suddenly summoned here, so I will explain about it, so please listen carefully" Edward said.
Edward immediately explained everything about why they were called here.
"You understand?" Ask Edward to all the committee members in the sports hall.
"Yes, chief!" Said the committee members in unison.
Edward, who heard the members' answers, nodded and continued to explain how to select to find the person who would represent the academy with him.
So, the members of the committee, will be grouped according to each year, and they will fight each other, and will be taken five people in groups.
After that, each of each group that qualified, would fight one on one against the person from the other group, until the remaining 9 people who would represent the inter academy tournament, however if after the result came out, and there was someone who wanted to seize the slots to participate in the tournament, then he could challenge one among the 10 candidates representing the academy. After that, the selection begins.
Automatically, Rain was in the first year group, because indeed he was a first year child in the magic academy.
Edward as the chairman of the committee agreed, to avoid unwanted events, considering the power of Isabella is a magic of the mind, which would be very dangerous if the user could not control it.
This makes the number of first-year committees that will fight reduced by one, and there will be one member who automatically passes to the next stage without fighting.
The nine men also deliberated to determine who would go directly to stage 2, and the result was Cristina who was chosen to go directly to the next stage without fighting.
After that, the opponents of each person will be determined, and Rain will face a child of the High Class, named Viel, and they will fight in third place.
The first match was started, between Prince Ciel facing a child named Aqua who came from High Class.
The two of them immediately climbed onto the arena, and when the two of them were ready, the fight immediately began.
Prince Ciel was a magician who used wind magic as his main element, while the female named Aqua, he used the water element as the main element.
The fight went very fierce, Time after time the fight went increasingly hot and fierce, with the two of them exchanging attacks, and also defending.
Up to 5 minutes later, it could be seen that currently Prince Ciel was gradually superior to Aqua, and it seemed that Aqua had started to run out of mana, prince Ciel looks fine.
And soon enough, prince Ciel's attack made it in and hit Aqua, which made the fight won by prince Ciel.
And the second match continued between Haris and Marfis, and they were both fire element users.
And as a result, Haris came out victorious, with an absolute victory, with no meaningful resistance from the opposing side. That was obvious, as Haris was the son of the head of the Vanguard family, who did specialize in developing fire-type magicians.
And the third fight finally begins, between Rain, against a boy named Viel.
They immediately advanced to the arena, and when they were both ready, the jury began a fight between the two.
The boy named Viel immediately exerted his magic to Rain.
"Lightning Strike!" The boy named Viel.
Lightning appeared around his hand, and he immediately deployed his hand which was surrounded by lightning towards Rain.
Rain who saw Viel who wanted to hit him using a hand coated by lightning immediately lowered his head to dodge the attack.
However, after Viel mustered his punch that hit the empty air, from his punch appeared a lightning bolt that struck in the direction it was headed.
'It's a good thing I didn't deflect the attack, otherwise I've been hit by that lightning.'
Rain immediately kept his distance from Viel.
"It looks like you're a witch who attacked using melee attacks huh," Rain said.
"Why indeed?" Ask Viel.
"No, if you attack using melee attacks tell me first, I also like close combat rather than attacking from afar" said Rain who directly activated his strengthening skill, and put up the horses to prepare to fight from close range.
