Shiro: The Secret Hero
11. The Hero Academy Test

Today was the day of the hero academy selection, where the abilities and talents displayed during the test, would determine which grades and academy to go to.

In front of the mirror, Shiro was looking at his appearance. He smiled at his appearance, even though he only used a plain white-black shirt and shorts. At least it seemed neat, clean and matched with Shiro's appearance.

Shiro exited the house carrying a small bag on his waist and walked towards the selection place, a smile engraved on Shiro's current face.

"Good morning Aunt Yuna"

"Good morning, dear Shiro, where are you going so early in the morning with a bag ?"

"You're in the hero academy recruitment selection, auntie"

"You're so excited about Shiro"

"Thank you aunt Yuna"

Along the way Shiro did not forget to greet the neighbors he knew. Many of them asked Shiro for his purpose. But when they heard Shiro's reply, they smiled and encouraged Shiro.

` siulan~ siulan~`

Shiro continued walking towards the hero academy and sometimes unknowingly Shiro hummed ria. Shiro whistled mimicking the tones of various songs from his previous life.

During the journey, Shiro unceasingly also imagined what kind of test would be carried out.

Shiro seems excited, shortly thereafter Shiro arrived at the hero academy recruiting place.

Spacious areas, sizable buildings, playgrounds, training grounds, and various shady trees as shelter adorn Shiro's eyes today.

Shiro began to enter the recruitment yard, a group of children gathered together to tell jokes of laughter, some were crying whining to his parents, some were joking, hand in hand with both parents, he said, and someone is running around here and there.

Looking at such conditions, there was no envy Shiro was in. He just smiled at the sight, reminding him of his past, about family togetherness, especially at the time of taking his son to school.

Shiro walked under a shady tree that was in the corner of the courtyard. Shiro sat there, alone.

A few minutes passed, suddenly a male supervisor approached Shiro and told him to head to the middle of the field. Shiro nodded and obeyed.

After that there was an announcement to gather in the middle of the recruitment page, everyone gathered in the middle of the yard and lined up neatly. Shiro was among them.

The line looks neat, the atmosphere becomes calm. On the top podium was seen a middle-aged man around his 40s walking slowly to the center of the podium. Everyone looked up at the middle-aged man, there was a sense of admiration in their eyes. Even the kids seem excited.

The middle-aged man is the mayor of N City, his name is Eric Santos.

"Good morning everyone ! It's good to see you all here, it's good to see the enthusiasm in your eyes, your spirit is like this moment that will make you all shine in the future. ...."

The mayor of N City, Eric Santos, began his speech. According to Shiro this was like the opening ceremony of a new student. Shiro listened carefully, the students silently listened. Very good discipline.

The speech from Eric Santos continues, he tells about the history of City N in short, his dreams of the students, the achievements of the students who studied in the hero academy, the situation of war, peace, peace, and motivation to the students of the academy.

Honestly speaking, hearing a long speech from Eric Santos, Shiro was rather dull. Drowsiness began to attack Shiro's eyes, not only Shiro but several other students also had their eyelids up and down.

" .... Maybe enough up here my short speech, Welcome to the hero Academy recruiter test ! May you pass and become great heroes in the future, and may any of you be heroes of the City and can replace me in the position of Mayor in the future, Be the pride of City N"

Eric Santos ended his speech by encouraging young people. Eric Santos walked out slowly, until he was out of sight.

` plok~ plok~ plok~ claps~ pats~`

The sound of applause suddenly rang out, and cheers rang out among the students. Cheers are caused by a burning spirit or a sense of relief when the speech is finished. No one knows.

"I'll be the hero of the City and the Mayor"

"No, I'll be a powerful Pahlawanter"

"I'm ~"

"...."

Suddenly there was a child who shouted to be a hero with passion, this ignited the spirit and desire to talk other children to become heroes.

The atmosphere was a bit tingly at the moment, the noise of commotion echoed in the courtyard. But there was no fight. Shiro smiled at this sight.

Shiro admitted that the current mayor Eric Santos is quite good at mobilizing and provoking the spirit of others.

"Everyone please calm down, we will name you one by one and start doing your talent tests. Please listen carefully as we are not repeating your names"

Hearing the announcement, the students calmed down, there were no more voices in the courtyard except for the sound of the wind passing by.

"OK good, we'll start reading your names one by one, For those mentioned please go forward."

Point the person to a meha with a brown male supervisor standing at the table. The man waved his hand with a smile.

"Let's start, the first one is Toshiro, please move forward"

A boy goes to the designated place.

I saw the boy who was the first. Shiro could not help but glance at him. Not only Shiro, even the other children were the same.

It is seen that the supervisor directs the boy's hand to a ball on the table.

"Toshiro, Class D Magic talent" said the supervisor there.

After that, Toshiro started to retreat and returned. There were some people watching to start discussing things and approach the boy named Toshiro.

Seeing this condition, Shiro seemed to be aware that the entrance test of the hero academy was seen from the type of ability and talent.

And those people were the representatives from the various hero academies to recruit students.

The names are called one by one.

"Ajumi type Magic Class c"

"May support class C"

"Sony, physical type B class"

"Sarah type Element class A"

when the announcement about the Element type, the atmosphere on the field became noisy, because the Element type was a rare type, let alone this was Class A.

The representatives of the hero academy begin to approach the girl named Sarah, they try to recruit Sarah to their hero academy.

Shiro wants to know where the Hero Academy girl named Sarah is. But it seems like he will not know his current goal.

Talent tests continue.

"Yodhi type Physical class..."

"...."

"Next Shiro"
