Chapter 21: Plan Successful

Even if Sylvia was born into a middle class family, but because of her parents' love, and her heroine's luck's protection, she was never beaten by society.

'I hate rich and strong people because they are cruel, conceited, and look down on me. But I don't mind being rich and strong myself and doing the same because I believe that everything I do is for the greater good.'

'Hypocrite virgin bitch!'

This was Sylvia's character, which she was quite proud of.

But I was a rich second generation, so I was someone who was never meant to be liked by her.

She would always despise me, regardless of my character.

Thus, my strategy to tame this bitch, who would be useful to me in the future, was never a gentle one.

I wasn't a masochistic, selfless wimp of a protagonist who would chase after a girl from whom he knew he would only get disgust no matter what.

"Ahhhh-!"

Right about that time, Sylvia's scream resounded in the space.

Her innate mana, paralyzed by fear, was powerless to stop the unknown mana from raging inside her body.

Of course, since this was just a test, she wouldn't be in any real danger, but the indescribable suffering she would have to go through was still undeniable.

Because of what had happened before, Sylvia was under a lot of pressure.

Everyone was watching her, and she knew that if she failed now, they wouldn't leave her alone even after she left the Magic Tower.

Triple-Quadriple pressure.

In such a situation, my skill 'Intimidation' became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and no matter how tough Sylvia was, her mentality couldn't help but break.

And a mage with his mentality broken was nothing more than garbage, no matter how skilled or good the Class Archmage was.

"Kyaaaaaa-"

Sylvia's situation appeared hopeless, and she continued to scream.

"If nothing else, she will be severely traumatized, even if she gets through this."

I analyzed her situation and made my comment.

If she went on like this, she would surely fail.

But for my plans, I couldn't allow her to fail, and so after I felt it was enough, I deactivated my skill.

"This should be enough."

[Deactivated: Intimidation]

Instantly, the power that frightened Sylvia faded away, and I could see the terror leaving her eyes.

Even so, she was still in a very precarious position.

But Sylvia knew that if she failed, her life would become hell, so she persisted till the end.

Blood dripped down her nose due to her excessive mental consumption.

Nonetheless, at last, she successfully managed to expel the mana.

"Sylvia passed... Next is Adrian Vaiself."

Just as expected, Roman calmly reported that she had passed.

Sylvia had succeeded in dealing with mana, and it was barely enough to pass.

As for what happened earlier, in Roman's eyes, she wasn't worth his hatred, let alone some petty revenge.

However, the players present here were different.

Most of them were hot blooded youths.

Their faces were filled with mockery as they stared at Sylvia, who barely passed the test after screaming as though she would die midway.

Sensing this ridicule, Sylvia lowered her head and began to return to her place with tears in her eyes.

At the words of Roman, who called me, I walked out.

Passing by Sylvia, I smiled and congratulated her.

"Don't mind them, you did a great job."

"...!"

Hearing my words, Sylvia was taken aback, her shoulder twitched slightly.

She looked at me with wide eyes and bowed her head again.

But I Ignored her, and went forward calmly without any pressure or change in my emotions.

"I will begin."

Roman said, and when I nodded in response, he activated the golden sphere like magical device in his hand.

However, the countless mana rays rushing toward me made me curse inwardly.

'Fucker, are you joking with me?'

It was because the number of rays coming at me was almost three times greater than what the other players faced.

Yet, I wasn't the least bit concerned.

Instead, a confident grin spread across my face as I glanced at Roman, who smiled back at me in amusement.

Our eyes met for an instant before we broke apart, but in that split second, we were able to read each other's minds.

'As expected, I can't deceive a Tower Mage.'

Roman discovering my earlier tricks wasn't a surprise.

I had expected it, so naturally, I wasn't concerned about it.

The fact that Roman didn't say anything to Sylvia doesn't mean he wasn't offended, he just felt she wasn't worth his attention or time.

But of course, because of this, he also wouldn't complain if someone put that disrespectful girl in her place and taught her a lesson.

Furthermore, he must have known that I had the maximum amount of mana among the players here, and that too at just level one, so pointing out my earlier actions or punishing me for them was out of the question.

At least until he personally assesses my abilities and tests me, which was the last thing I worried about.

'All's according to plan. If Roman takes an interest in me, I can get that hidden piece inside the library faster.'

Taking a deep sigh inwardly, I removed unnecessary thoughts and focused.

The task of the test was to deal with the unknown mana, and expelling it out was the easiest way.

However, it wasn't the only way.

[Trait: Mana Affinity (A)]

An unimaginable, natural affinity with mana.

For me, who could see mana and connect to it unlike anyone else, there was a way to pass this test that was even better.

I closed my eyes and stood tall with a straight, proud back, absorbing the unknown mana into my body.

Under my precise control, my innate mana moved in accordance with my will, cut apart the unknown mana into countless pieces, and then flooded it like a tsunami.

Sensing the change inside my body, I snapped my fingers, opened my eyes, and declared.

"Assimilate!"

The unknown mana was successfully consumed by me.

"It's done."

Seeing such an operation, for the first time, Roman lost his composure.

He couldn't believe what he had seen.

"What?... Adrian passed."

No matter how difficult the test was, based on the standard of an ordinary player, it would inevitably take at least 1~2 minutes.

Even the best until now was 58 seconds, and the worst by Sylvia took 5 minutes.

But what about my speed?

"Wasn't it less than 10 seconds?"

"He just closed his eyes, murmured something, opened them, and snapped his fingers."

The players in the auditorium also went into a frenzy.

Especially the girls who stared at me, a handsome man with a perfect physique.

"Wait! A black suit?"

"Who the hell dresses up like that for an entrance exam?"

"Kyaaa! So handsome."

"My Male God!"

The eyes of those gathered in the auditorium were directed towards me.

And in that gaze, Sylvia's gaze was also there, as she looked at me with a complicated gaze.

'Those words.'

She might be wondering if she had heard it wrong, but no matter how much she thought, she knew she heard those words right.

'Don't mind them, you did a good job..."

'When everyone was pointing fingers at her, then, why did I do that?'

She must be wondering to herself.

Unfortunately, she was doomed to struggle with no answer.

It was then.

"This concludes the test."

Roman regained his composure, shouted, and first sent out the students who failed.

He then went on to explain the future schedule to the players who were still present before unleashing a brilliant flash of golden light.

The light turned into a golden card when it reached each player's hand.

"From now on, you all are the apprentices of the Magic Tower. Congratulations! See you in the next class."

Saying that, the bald Tower Mage turned and left the auditorium in a hurry.

Of course, not before sending me a secret voice transmission.

'This time I will overlook what you did in the test to the other player, and since your evaluation was the highest, there will be a reward, but that has to wait till the next meeting.'

Since it was a one-sided transmission, I was unable to respond, and by the time his transmission's words were finished, he had already left the auditorium.

However, when I heard about the reward, my heart jumped for joy because it meant that my plan had been successful.

'YESSSSS!'

Following Roman's departure, players dispersed all over the place and began stepping out of the Tower one by one.

A lot of people came my way as well, mostly girls with a look of fascination and love on their faces, trying to talk to me or get my contact information.

But my body immediately reacted with disgust before they could even get close to me.

[Activated: Intimidation]

The incoming players' bodies began to tremble right away, and they unconsciously started to back away from me.

As if an invisible circular barrier was created around me.

But I ignored them, and with a proud face, long strides, I left the area, feeling multiple gazes at my back, all carrying different emotions.

When everyone was inside the Magic Tower, no one dared to misbehave.

However, when I teleported back, I exited the branch in New York City, and called Charlotte to pick me up.

It was then.

Bang!

A loud noise came from behind me, as if someone had hit a large metal rod on the ground.

I turned my head and looked at the source of the sound.

"Is the bitch ignoring my words?"

Sylvia was surrounded by a group of women in a threatening atmosphere.

'As expected.'

When I saw that, I was unable to resist smiling coldly inside.

In front of me were a bunch of women, blocking Sylvia's path on the road.

"Didn't I tell you not to pass in front of me?"

"I have to pass through here to get out."

Still affected by what happened earlier, Sylvia replied meekly.

Without me, Sylvia would be the top newbie player today, but as a heroine, she would have still aroused jealousy, leading these same girls to believe that Sylvia was cheeky and in need of a beating.

The scenario was different but within expectations.

"If you're going to leave, why don't you drop out?"

"To be honest, how did you even pass with those skills?"

"The Tower Mage must have thought of giving her punishment later."

"Hahahaha... Indeed."

The group of women giggled and continued to scrape Sylvia's self-esteem.

But all Sylvia could do was mumble.

"No.."

"I can't hear you. What did you say?"

"No.."

"Can't this fucking bitch even talk?"

One of the girls grabbed Sylvia by the hair and started pulling her, as if she didn't like her attitude.

"Ah-"

Bullying continues to escalate.

However, no one passing by came forward to stop it, they only glanced at it and moved on.

'It's not that I don't know why.'

They probably don't want to get entangled in someone else's mess, because if you do something wrong, you might end up harming yourself.

'It looks like my time to shine has come.'

Sinisterly grinning inside my head, I approached the group that was harassing Sylvia, opened my mouth, and a cold, authoritative voice as if looking down on these pests came out of my mouth.

"Leave!"
