In the morning, Elijah woke up and went to the bathroom."AAH!"
looking at the mirror, he saw drawings of unicorns on his face.
"Luna!"
...
after cleaning his face and changing clothes,
"I never thought I"d find a city like this in this low-level world." Shadow"s voice rang in his head.
"Master." Elijah immediately greeted him.
"Boy, how do you feel in a city much larger than your kingdom?" Shadow said.
"I finally understood how my kingdom was small." Elijah"s mouth went up. "But I think this is going to be interesting."
Shadow said, "Good you think like this, I need to say something important to you. My first mission for you is to reach the top of the academy and get something for me called Mjölnir. When you enter the Academy, remember not to try to communicate with me, I will be waiting here.
Elijah nooded
"Also don"t hope to rely on the benevolence of others. the only one you need to rely while you are here is yourself, and yourself alone. Now I"m going to have my beauty sleep, wake me up in a few years." After saying that Shadow went to sleep.
In truth, after he used the growth rune for the first time and when he killed all those bandits months ago, something inside him has changed and it made him thirst for battle and blood.
Seeing Shadow had gone.
Elijah seated on the bed and sighed "I"m still very weak." He couldn"t help but recollect how, when he had first entered the City, all those students and workers seemed to have much more power than him.
...
On the end of Sunderheim street, they could see a extemelly large building, it was Valhala Examination Office.
Valhala Academy controlled the entire city, which comprised of several sectors.
The Valhala Academy"s headmaster had an extremely high status. He had the authority to depose any of the kings of the various kingdoms! Even if you are a commoner and enter the academy, every kingdom or empire would want them as a n.o.ble and this is why in everyone wanted to enter there.
This morning, many people were gathered around the entrance to the Examination office. The vast majority of the people there several n.o.bles from ancient Families. Countless carriages filled up the s.p.a.ce in front of the office, while various n.o.bles chatted with each other.
Elijah, Ophelia and Luna had arrived here as well. Seeing all these people that had come for the test Ophelia said.
"It seems we arrived at the time of the test, Ell, try to take the test without the letter, if you pa.s.s we can use that letter for Luna."
Elijah nooded.
"Sis, there"s so many people here today. Many Ancient Families like ours had come here." Elijah said to his sister. At this time, Luna, was hiding behind Elijah, occasionally peeking out to see her surroundings.
Ophelia whispered to Elijah, "Ancient? our family was much more important than that, they are only descendants of lesser G.o.ds, while our family is a descendant of the G.o.d of Imperial Lightning, Eileon."
"Imperial G.o.d?" father din"t said this before." Elijah immediately understood why his family had relations with the director of the Valhalla Academy. It was because they were descendants of a Imperial G.o.d. While Imperial was just a t.i.tle, it could cleary show how powerful this G.o.d must have been.
All the families here were descendants of several G.o.ds that existed, but most of them were of the most enameled G.o.ds, while the families descending from some High Ranked G.o.d were almost none.
"Oh, Mister Donovan, you are here as well?"
"Wagner, there"s already two years since we last saw, I"m here because of my fifth daugther and the only one who had inherited my family"s divine blood. Sophie, come pay your respects to your Uncle Donovan ."
At this moment, two Divine Knights were standing in front of the Examination Office, barring any entrance.
After a while, a middle-aged Man, wearing red robes, stepped forth from the building.
Stopping in front of the doors, he smiled and said to everyone in the crowd, "Our Academy Examination is about to Begin. All of our teachers in the academy are ready as well. Everyone who had come here for the test, please follow me into the main hall."
...
Following the middle-aged man, everyone who was waiting in the entrance entered the main hall of the Examination Office.
Inside the main hall.
The main hall had a floor paved with marble, magnificent braziers half encompa.s.sing each of the twelve ivory columns light up every part of the main hall and bathe it in an orange glow.
The artistic depictions of G.o.ds and Heroes on the walls danced in the flickering light while statuettes of G.o.ds look down upon everyone in this hall.
The middle-aged man smiled and said in a clear voice,"the test is about to begin. I will give you all a word of advice. Do not push it, go back and try another academy."
No one moved after hearing the words of the middle-aged man. In fact, some people, even take a few steps forward to demonstrate their willpower.
"Luna, stay with sis for now. I"m going to take the test." Elijah instructed the Luna, who somewhat unwillingly let go of him.
Elijah headed towards the line. The youths there ranged in age from six years old to seventeen years old.
These children organized themselves into two long lines, while the teachers colected their informations. The central circle was ten or so meters wide, and there were three adults within it.
Two of them were responsible for the test equipament, while one was responsible for recording the results on a strange metal book.
The testing equipment consisted of a meteoric steel plataform and and a complicated, runic formation.
All of this equipaments were given by the G.o.ds and they could not duplicate them.
"First."
The Middle-Aged Man pointed to a boy in front of the line and said, "Get on the platform. We will test
your lineage and affinities.
The first tested was a boy of twelve or thirteen.
That boy entered the platform nervously, and immediately the whole platform began to emanate a bright glow as several sensors scanned the boy.
Then a light screen apeared above him.

A burst of noise erupted from nearby.
"Silence." The Middle-Aged Man coldly said, and immediately a everyone in the crowd no longer dared to speak. "Next."
Two hours later, and from the eleven that was tested only one had pa.s.sed.
Right now the one who walked to the plataform this time was a girl. She get on the plataform and imediataly the lights began once again.

"Hrm?" The Middle-Aged Man"s eyes shone, as he read the test result.
The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction. A hint of a smile on his face, he said: "Good, a high level affinity. you have pa.s.sed to the next level! now the teachers would like to talk with you."
Immediately, a few Divine Knights came and escorted the girl and her father to where the line of teachers was sat.
Elijah walked calmly to the center and climbed onto the platform. Seeing his looks, everyone thought he was a sixteen year old teen.
A few Female Students were even talking as well.
"Annie Look, That"s the boy I said to you yesterday, look at his large gray eyes and his white skin, I wish my boyfriend was as cute as him."
But before they could continue to talk, everyone was scared by the terrifewing amount of light that surged.
