Chapter 8 - Test of courage

"You got to be kidding me, Is that a...."

"This woman is insane. she really brought a demon inside" (Dialo)

Entire hall went silence.

"We have to save the students. yes, get ready to attack that thing" (Professors murmuring)

"Sssshhhhh, one wrong move and Even I won't be able to save them. Let the students take the exam" (Aaradhya)

That was some crazy exam happening there. The demon doesn't have eyes, probably her doing to make it easy but still engaging students who never saw a demon into this. I hope Christe will be okay. Will my omnipotent element be helpful if things go wrong?

Every student sticking their hand to the candle like a lifeline. The demon deliberately avoiding the candles and whatever attached it. It is afraid of that. The candles are melting slowly. The demon roared and started destroying things. 

"Please save me god. Please save me, please save me" A girl praying in fear.

The demon sensed the sound. Although it can't do anything to a person who is in contact. It started spitting on her direction.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH" the girl separated from the group and started running away.

"GRRRRRRRRR....GRRR...." the demon started chasing her and everyone stood clueless, whether to help her or obey headmaster. it's just one demon and there are so many professors, lecturers, instructors are there. But before they act, Aaradhya snapped her fingers to place another candle on that girl's hand. The girl holding it tightly as she could.

"For a while I thought she really going to let he die"

"Me too" 

"Woah, who are you"

"I am Hana, HOD of Combat division" (Hana)

"Oh, Nice to meet you"

"I wonder what is the purpose and how this exam will end" (Hana)

"Isn't everyone should survive by holding candles?"

"Do you really think that will end this?" (Hana)

We all focused on what will happen now.

There is no point in staying still. I don't think this will resolve anything. The meaning between ending the exam and passing the exam are different. "Everyone, Can I take the candle to myself. I have to test something" (Christe)

"Ary you crazy, is he trying to save himself for passing, we should just push him out" (group members)

"I agree with him" (a boy will blue hair in his group)

"Oi Oi , we all juniors here, don't act like some cool guy now. Yeah, it's been only six months since we started academy. Just because that guy fought senior carter doesn't mean anything now. This is real demon" (Group members)

These guys are not thinking. There is no point in sitting idle. (Christe)

"Just shut up already." The blue haired boy pulled the candle and throwed it to Christe. "Do what you planned."

Christe smiled at him. 

"Are those two crazy? what are they doing. the son of troublemaker. (Professors whispering)

I kept hand on my head and Hana kept her hand in her mouth.

"GRRRRRRRRR.......RARRRRRR" the demon approaching their group and Christe standing Infront of them

"I won't be a much match for a dark element. Time to test it" (Christe)

When the demon was about to strike him, he gathered flames in the hand which is holding the candle. "You stink" Punched the demon, A huge blast and the demon thrown away, crying in pain

The entire hall went silent.

My guess is correct. "Everyone, the demon is afraid of the candle and its dark element is suppressed when we hit our element along with it. This exam won't end until we kill that thing. What you have in hand is just a candle that will runs out soon and then you won't be able to save yourself."(Christe)

"So, what, the headmaster will summon another candle. Yes, they can't let me die like this. Do you know who my father is." (students arguing)

the blue haired boy laughs

"What's there to laugh about" (Students)

"Pathetic, You people should wear a maid outfit and sweep floors instead of coming here" (blue haired boy)

"Christe, you can handle it right, if you have enough candles"(blue haired boy)

Students are shocked by what he means

"As long as water is involved there is nothing I can't pull" He instantly pulled all the candles to him and standing together with Christe

"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

"Let's end this" Christe hair started burning and he pulled out his sword in from his hand. "Throw them towards the demon"

"Roger"

Christe slashed the demon with his sword at the same time the candles hit it. The aftermath was so strong that the wall and the ground behind it all are destroyed.

"He killed that demon? The son of the troublemaker? Even we can't take that demon in one hit with its weakened form" (Staffs murmuring)

"That's my boy. I know he can do it." (Isagi shouting)

Christe embarrassed

"Didn't you put your hands on head when he decided to fight" (Hana)

Ignoring Hana

"The examination concluded. Only one student failed. Although only two of them actually did something. The rules are rules. The exam purpose is to think wisely in a battle. Believe in your comrade and lastly, have the courage to face your enemy. If you want to survive, then team up with the strong don't just abandon them" (Aaradhya)

Wow she really is a person with battle experiences. In just her first day, she taught them the real experience of a battle.

Everyone started dispersing.

Even after 1000 years, her blood is still feared by demons. Just how strong you are. I wonder what killed her. Juana....Juliana anateshia (Aaradhya)
