Warlock of Oceans: My Poseidon System

Chapter 28 Middle School Testing (4)

"Wait! Wait! Stop! Stop! Fine! I'll listen to your condition or whatever!"

I smiled lightly before redirecting my eyes to the man before me, his silky black hair glistening from the lights above.

"You have to drag along my siblings, and they must come with me. Also, if any other school wants to drag me to their side, you have to give me a better deal than this guy. Plus, you must drag my siblings along," I said while turning to the various teachers above.

The room went silent as the teachers slowly grumbled under their breath, knowing that putting too much into a single middle school student without even knowing a glimpse of their future was suicide.

"Okay, well, it'll be nice working with you," I muttered, and as I shook hands with the black-haired man, I could immediately confirm he was the guy from before.

The pressure being emitted from him was like deadly gravity magic pressing onto my spine itself.

"What is the body part for the rune?" I asked as the guy followed me to the next testing zone, which was the standardized IQ and battle IQ test.

First comes the IQ, and then comes the battle IQ, as they are very separate and different things, despite people trying to wrap them into the same group.

"Fingers," The man said with a wide smile that sent chills down my spine.

"How many does it connect to?"

"All ten," He replied with an even wider smile, and my heart began to race with large pumps of adrenaline.

Alright... calm down... he might drop you if you become too eager.

"Why give something so precious away when you don't even know if I'll get far in this world? Who knows, I might end up dying the second I get to your academy," I chuckled, but the man kept his wide smile.

"I know your potential. Remember, I fought with you, and back then, your skill was much greater than what was displayed today... Have you taken a practice test for any of these standardized tests?"

"Yeah,"

Then, the procter soon announced the start of the test, so I glanced over all the pages and smiled to myself.

This is going to be easy.

...

Exactly an hour later, the test had closed, so I handed in my fully completed test before receiving the next one, which was even easier than before.

The previous test was pretty easy, though I felt like I could've done better, but with this subject, I was confident I could at least pass.

"Please! Please let me take the test! I can't go back to my family and tell them that I failed! PLEASE PROCTER! PLEASE! I'LL GIVE YOU AS MUCH MONEY AS YOU WANT!" A familiar kid clawed his way through a pile of security guards.

It was the same kid from before who had those terrible injuries but was now almost completely healed, just his leg was wrapped in a cast.

"Igor Voidmaw, you are now officially banned from ever taking part in this test again. Wait till the high school test for you to raise your ashamed head again," The proctor said in a cold voice, and I could literally see the light die in the kid's eyes.

Clearly, he was about to get disowned or just straight up killed by his family for "bringing upon shame" to their family name.

I laughed a bit under my hand before the procter let us regain our concentration and start the next test swiftly.

...

"*yawn*... Fuck, that was so boring. I completed it and checked it five times in just under thirty minutes... shit... I should've spread out the questions more," I muttered while moving on to the final area.

"Hey, I saw you pretty bored during that test. Was it that easy?" A familiar girl ran up beside me as we all walked onto a dirt arena.

She had long pink hair, fluffy tan eyes, and a voice that could charm anybody into doing her bidding.

Let's see what she's going to try and make me do...
