The Reincarnators
chapter 15: academy entrance exam (part 3)

after Kazuto is taken down by the guards to do his test, ren and katia enter the room where they will do the written exam, which is, they also did the test easily even though they both had a little trouble on some issues, but because of the education they received as children they somehow managed to overcome let alone katia who received additional lessons from her father over the past 6 months.

"well, the written exam has been completed, please go to the field for your practice exam," said the supervisor who came out of the classroom and told all the participants to head to the field, and shoot the target using their magic.

"the next 3 points," said the instructor who called the next participant to demonstrate magic.

"well," said the next participant and he made a magic pattern and fired a fireball at the target.

"good, 7 points, next," said the instructor.

"well," said ren who made the fireball bigger than the previous participant and set fire to his target.

"good, 8 points, next," said the instructor.

"well," said Katia who was casually advancing preparing to fire her magic as she came up with an idea, "are we allowed to use any other magic besides fireball magic, ?" ask katia to the instructor.

"there was no rule prohibiting participants from using other magic, but since fireball magic was one of the most basic magic, it was made standard," the instructor said to katia which he answered with a nod.

"fire spear," said Katia who made a spear made of fire and pierced through the target and hit the target behind it.

"b-good, 10 points," said the instructor.

"wow, you see that he's so great,"

"as expected of the elinstein family, they were in a different class,"

"did you see he not only used fire spear fire magic but he also did not make a magic circle when making it,"

Whispers from the other participants were heard throughout the field, many of them showing awe and envy at katia's ability, katia herself felt uneasy and hoped that if all this was done.

"you're okay," said ren who looked at the uncomfortable katia.

"i'm fine," said Katia who felt a strong wind from the field, then they saw a silver-clad man destroying the target using wind magic.

"good 10 points, next," said the instructor.

"hey who is he, ?"

"foolish base he is the son of earl winddum,"

"you mean the genius young master of the winddum family, astra winddum,"

"you see, he's very handsome,"

"yes, I know, not only is he strong and handsome but he also comes from a noble family, he is truly a complete package.

praise and cheers were heard all over the field to Astra for his great performance.

"what a great thing it is, I'm sure that kazuto can be better," said Katia who muttered to say that kazuto is better than astra.

"heh, have you missed your dearest kazutomu, so cute," said ren who did not miss the opportunity to tease katia using kazuto.

"i-I'm just being honest, Kazuto is a great person" said Katia who blushed.

"yes, yes, I understand tsun-tsun," said ren who continued to insinuate katia, which made katia glare at him.

then one by one the participants perform magic and signify the end of the magic test.

"well, the magic exam on this day has been completed," said the instructor who after that headmaster came forward and gave his congratulations and announcement from the participants.

"good afternoon prospective students of the hexion academy, introduce my name miliena archemist, principal of this academy, I would like to congratulate and thank you for your participation in the exams this year, and after I see so much talent emerging this year, I hope that those of you who pass this test can develop and become great magicians in the future, and for those who are not accepted I hope you are not desperate to try and develop in your own way" explained the headmaster of the hexion academy who afterwards showed the results of their exams.

"yes, I did it,"

"look, that's my name,"

"don't worry there's still next year,"

"oi ren you found out where you are, ?" ask Katia who looked at the notice board that the headmaster had brought up and looked for her name.

"yes, I'm 14th, what about you, ?" asked ren who did not take his eyes off the notice board as if he was still looking for a name.

"i'm ranked 7th, my academy's grades are smaller than expected" said the same katia as ren who searched for the kazuto name but even so he didn't see the kazuto name on the notice board, that made katia worry if kazuto didn't pass the exam, but then she saw something strange on the board.

"oh, that's right, don't-don't kazuto don't pass, how can," said Ren who was frustrated to see the name of his rival who was not on the notice board and did not realize something on the notice board something that other participants who passed realized.

"ren let's see the name astra" said Katia, thinking of something.

"what are you saying isn't you supposed to be worried about kazu- uh," said ren who became aware of Katia's words, after telling her to look at Astra's name, and it turned out that her name was in second place, 'astra is in second place, if he is in second place then who occupies first place, ?' thought ren.

"hey, who's the first ranker,"

"the name is not even mentioned,"

The whispers of the people in the field became increasingly noisy, with the first rank hiding from the test, which they did.

"you must have some questions about what he wrote this board right, because it will be answered immediately, the first place occupied by people who are not currently in the field, right, he was resting in the pharmacy after passing a special test that we had prepared, "the miliena principal explained.

'kazuto got a different test, so therefore he was directly escorted by the guards towards the special room,' Katia thought, but no matter what she was only happy if her friend had successfully graduated even though she was unsure of what the headmaster wanted to do by hiding the kazuto's name.

"was that why he got the bodyguard from the guard this morning, ?" ren asked katia in a small voice that only the two of them heard.

"yes, more or less so" said Katia.

"thank God he passed, but what kind of test did he do that made him hurt, ?" ask ren.

"it's likely that the test she did was one that required her to fight against someone," said Katia who was unsure of her estimate.

"principal may I ask you something, ?" ask Astra who wants to know something.

"may I find out what tests he did and how he got first place, ?" astra asked in a fairly calm tone even though he did not hide his sense of irritation because he got second place.

"the first test he did was a test of the amount of magic and according to the data the amount of magic he had was half of what I had," said the headmaster who surprised everyone except the closest person to Kazuto.

"then for the next test was the fight against the A rank adventurer we hired earlier this morning and not only did he manage to defeat him," said the headmaster who made the others surprised if the students of the academy managed to defeat rank A adventurers, that includes katia and ren because even though they know that kazuto is strong, they don't know how strong he is.

"then what's his name, ?" asked a woman with black hair tied up who was then carrying a sword by her side.

"the name is kept secret for now, and will be shown at the beginning of the lesson when the ceremony takes place" said the headmaster who ended his speech and stepped off the podium.

Then after that the other participants who passed the examination came out of the academy, as well as katia and ren who walked through the gate and saw a familiar figure.

"you guys are slow," said Kazuto who greeted katia and ren with some bandages wrapped around his body.

"oh, kazuto what happened to you, ?" tanya Katia who was worried to see the condition of the kazuto covered by the bandage.

"it's not that the principal has already explained it," said kazuto, who did not want to discuss the topic.

"yes, t-but." said Katia who at that time put her hand on katia's head.

"later I tell you," said Kazuto who got a nod from Katia looking at the strange condition of kazuto

"so you're really up against rank A adventurers huh?," asked ren who was still surprised by the fact how powerful kazuto was.

"yes," said kazuto, after which they returned to their home.

"i'm coming home" said Kazuto who entered the house, "during-oh what happened to you, ?" loen asked who immediately ran towards the injured kazuto and throughout the night finally kazuto told what happened to leon.
