Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 62: Guild Tests Part One

After filling out their forms Alicia and Rose went back to the counter to turn them in. Alicia waited patiently off to the side while Cathy was waiting on someone else when she was done Cathy told the next person to wait a second before turning and smiling at Alicia and taking their forms. She looked them over briefly and said: "Okay, good. Please head to the door to the right to begin testing."

Cathy pointed to the door that was about five meters away against the sidewall. Alicia gave Cathy a small bow before heading through the door with Rose. The room was painted all white and was pretty small. It was empty besides the middle aged man standing in the middle of the room next to a pedestal with a crystal ball looking thing sitting on top of it. There was another door on the back side of the room as well. 

Alicia walked up to the middle aged man and gave a small bow. The middle aged man smiled and said: "I see that you will be taking the test together." The middle aged man paused to look at the two who nodded their heads at him. Getting confirmation the middle aged man continued. "This test will test your magic power. All you need to do is place your hand on to the Magisphere and inject your magic power into it. Who wants to go first."

"Young Miss do you want to go first?" Rose asked.

"No, you can go first. I want to watch how this Magicsphere works." All this was new to Alicia so she wanted to watch before taking the test herself. 

Rose nodded and walked up to the pedestal. She reached up and placed her hand on to the Magisphere and slowly released her magic power into it. The Magisphere lit up and a ray of light shot out of it as numbers appeared in the air. 200 300 600 900 it continued for a few minutes until I finally slowed down at 9456. 

The middle aged man had a big grin on his face as he said: "Not bad at all this number is equal to a C rank. That is very good for someone your age. Please step over to the side." 

Rose did not seem happy for the middle aged man's praise. This was mainly due to her already knowing her current strength. She only gave a faint smile before going to stand at the side to watch Alicia take her turn. 

Alicia took a step forward and went to reach up to touch the Magisphere only to stop and frown. 'Why the hell is it so high!?' She couldn't reach it! Even if she stood on her tiptoes she was still not even close to reaching it. She looked at the middle aged man who gave an apologetic smile. Alicia's gaze made him feel a bit embarrassed. He had forgotten to lower the pedestal. He was not used to having such a young kid take the test.

"Ahem Sorry, one second..." He quickly hit a switch on the floor next to his feet. A low wanning sound could be heard as the sounds of gears moving under the floor echoed throughout the room. The pedestal shook before slowly lowering into the floor, only stopping when it was low enough for Alicia to easily reach the Magisphere. 

Finally able to reach it now Alicia placed her hand on to the Magisphere. Just like what happened to Rose the Magisphere lit up and a ray of light shot up above it. 1000 5000 12000 all the way until it hit 45387. The middle aged man's eyes almost fell out of his head. Wasn't this a bit too much power for a girl her age? This was right up there with those in A rank borderline S rank! 

Doing his best to regain himself after such a shock the middle aged man said: "These numbers are quite amazing. Not even full grown adults would have such high numbers. Your magic power is equivalent to those at the peak of A rank!"

Alicia was somewhat surprised that her battle prowess was already this high for magic. But when she thought of all the magi points she possessed then this should be about average or just above average. The more she thought about it the more she felt that this was not such a great accomplishment. She only smiled at the middle aged man and said: "Is that the end of the first test?" 

"Huh? Ah! Yes, it is! Your next test will be held through the door in the back once enough people have gathered." The middle aged man pointed to the door on the back wall. He wondered if Alicia knew what it meant to have the same magic power as an A rank adventurer. But seeing how she did not ask he did not say anything. 

"Thank you for your time!" Alicia gave a small bow before making her way to the next test with Rose following behind her.

The middle aged man watched as Alicia exited the room and could only shake his head. But when he turned around he almost jumped out of his skin when he saw a handsome young man standing tall in front of him. "Ahh! Sir Blake! Are you trying to send me to an early grave!?"

"Edric the Young Miss's magic power test results must be kept secret. This is by order of the King!" Blake's emotionless face caused the hairs on the back of Edric's neck to stand straight up. 

"Yes, of course! It is the policy of the guild that all results remain a secret." Edric nodded his head. 

"That's good. If I find out that her results were spread out I  will come look for you first." Blake left these words before disappearing into thin air.

A cold sweat ran down Edric's back as he thought to himself: 'I need a new job!'
