Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP Systemchapter 163: second test end!

Next up was Sally. She walked up on stage and looked at Instructor Jasmine with a small, confident smile. I have never seen Sally use attack magic, so I have no idea how good she is at it. I guess I can only watch and see for myself.

Once instructor Jasmine gave the okay, Sally suddenly hopped into the air and swung her huge hammer down in front of her causing a large magic circle to suddenly appear. As soon as it did, a rain of fireballs began showering down onto the stage, causing Instructor Jasmine to have to dodge and throw up a few barriers. As soon as the magic ended, she hurriedly yelled out: "Okay enough! You pass!"

That was definitely a quick fight. But I can see why. I knew Sally had some kind of magic ability due to her being able to stand on air but just did not know anything beyond that. Now seeing it with my own eyes, I can tell she is very powerful, beyond just her strength.

Sally walked off stage, and it was now Sei's turn. She looked very uninterested as she made her way on stage. But before the match could even start, Instructor Jasmine suddenly yelled out: "You pass!"

"Thank the gods! I did not want to deal with you either…." Sei turned right back around and walked off stage. When she walked over, I gave her a questioning gaze. "We went to this same academy together. She knows not to fight me since we would end up battling until one of us passes out from mana exhaustion."

"I see.... I guess it's good that you didn't then. I want t get this over with already." I was actually looking forward to the third test, although the idea of goblins was not something I really wanted to deal with. I mean if they match the kind of goblins I have read about in my past life, then it would definitely be bad.

I have already signed a waiver, not that I am afraid of dying now. But the whole fact of the matter is that goblins from Earth were known for being monsters who used other races to breed. They would capture women and girls of all ages and bring them back to their dens to become breeding horses. Not the best of things in stories, that's for sure, but it did make for some dramatic scenes in some of those novels.

I will do what I can to protect those close to me. As for the others…. I could care less. Most hate me anyways. But although I say that if I can help, I probably would. I still can't watch a girl get dragged off to become a breeder. No girl deserves that.

Grace was up next, and she only used the bare minimum of spells to pass. I don't know why but it seemed to me that she was not really trying. But I guess it does make sense. She might not want to stand out. I can't really say, though. It would be kind of rude to ask, so I would prefer not to walk into any awkward situations.

It was midday the next day when the last of the tests finished up and we were ushered into a large building within the academy grounds. This building had many platforms with runic equations inscribed into them. Standing on one of the platforms was the Dean once again. "Everyone here will be taking the final tests. If you did poorly on the first two tests, you might still have a chance to enter if you do well on the second test. The instructors at my side will be going with you. While they will not interfere, even if you are about to die, they will be there to judge you and your actions.

"Always remember there are two sides of a gold, silver, or even a copper coin. The same goes for whether you join the knight course or the mage course. While one must be powerful to become someone the kingdom can rely on, there is another aspect of this that you should never overlook. And that is your heart. If you do not have the will to save your teammates or stick with them to the very end, then there is no need for you to be at this academy. Righteousness and chivalry are aspects that one must have when coming here as a student. Never forget who you are and why you are training to become more powerful. With power will always come greater responsibility. I just hope you do not turn your back on those around you.

"Alright! This old man will no longer ramble. From this moment, come up when your instructor calls you." The Dean then vanished into thin air. I guess he is indeed a busy man. But sadly, although the words he said were good and meant to try to put people on the right path, sadly, a lot of these people will never act in the manner he hopes for.

But now there is a bigger issue. I did not know if I would be on the same team as the others. I am sure they will not allow a bunch of strong people in the same team.

"Faith Cryilia! Adellia Gavos!" I heard my name called and looked over at the tall, Slender man in leather armor. I guess they want me in the same team as Adel, thankfully. But from how he called Adel, I guess this means all special treatment was over with. It was not time to become regular students.

"Faith, let's go!" Grabbed my hand and began to pull me, but I stopped short and turned to the others: "Sophie, Sally, Sei, Grace, If any of you are in danger, run away leave everyone behind. Even if it means giving up your place at the academy."

I was saying this because I did not wish for anyone I am close to to be dragged off by goblins. I might really lose myself if that happens.
