Novel Full Chapter 1048: Amazing Acting Skills
—–
In this world, my magic spells are further boosted thanks to my INT Stat compared to IRL, where I can only rely on my internal Mana and Runic quantity, alongside, well, the equipment I have.
In here, however, the bonuses are just much, much larger, to the point that the {Celestial Heavenly Sun} Spell, a Fusion Spell that was already pretty strong, was capable of one-shotting a Level 200 monster with ease.
BOOOM!
The explosion of flames and light engulfed the chimera instantly, its body dropped on the ground after giving a sharp cry of agony, its scales were burned, and its entire body ended charred completely.
The battle ended in less than twenty seconds.
“How did I do~?” I asked Tomas.
“C-Celestial Heavenly Sun?! I have never seen such a spell before!” Tomas gasped. “I-It was incredible, fantastic! Was that a Spell of your own creation, Lady Elizabeth?!”
He started calling me “Lady Elizabeth” now, heh.
“That’s right! It is a spell of my own creation!” I puffed my big chest. “Aren’t I just incredible? Amazing? Dashing? Ohohohoho!”
“Y-You sure are! Incredible… You are so much more talented than any student that has joined in the last years!” Tomas gasped, clapping in surprise. “You pass! You pass with flying colors, Lazy Elizabeth! Now, you only need to do the knowledge test and you’ll pass and become a Member of our grandiose Guild!”
“Nice! Bring it on!” I laughed cheekily.
I quickly walked back to the seats, as I sat down cross-legged, Tomas continued talking about the magic I used and how I even came out with it as the rest of my friends did their own tests.
They also had to fight against Chimeras on their own, each Chimera being Level 150, it was even easier for them.
Hendrick conjured a dozen spear-like roots of wood blazing with flames, which then exploded on contact, killing his foe instantly.
“W-what was that?! Fire and Wood combination magic? I didn’t know such elements could even be compatible! Amazing…”
Maria conjured a Sea of Shadows which both trapped her foe and then killed it with deadly curses that sapped away their health.
“Such proficient use of Shadows and Curses! Such s frightening sorceress!”
And lastly, Erika summoned a giant stone and metal hand, crushing her foe and killing it with a single slamming blow.
“So powerful… This is indeed how Earth Magicians must be…!”
Tomas was fascinated and flabbergasted time and time again, and as I sweet talked him, I quickly earned a lot of his trust and admiration. Over our conversations, I was able to sneak some important questions.
“Naturally, Tomas, I bet you must be an incredible magician yourself, right? I can see in both your handsome face and incredible Mana Aura that you’re not normal either!” I said with a smile, making him blush instantly.
“A-Ahaha, Lady Elizabeth, you praise me too much, I am but a humble magician,” he smiled. “You’re the only one here with such incredible talents.”
“Now, no need to be humble, seeing how strong you are, I assume you were taught many things here? I’ve heard from my parents that the magician tower also incentivizes the growth of talented magicians with both special classes and resources, is this true?”
“Yes! If you manage to get good marks in everything, you can get a scholarship!” he nodded. “The Guild then will do their best to make you grow into an exceptional magician. Scholarships are not given around easily though, but only to the most genius of geniuses.”
“Interesting…” I nodded. “I wonder though, I’ve noticed there’s a very few magicians around, mostly newbies like you, where had gone all the experts?”
“Ah, lately they’ve been busy helping the Tower Master in special affairs,” Tomas explained. “I am not really allowed to talk much about it, but I’ve heard it is something very important.”
“I see! I wonder if one day we could learn together, Tomas~” I looked at his dreamy eyes. “I do wonder, where they might have gone to?”
“Ahhh… W-Well…” he started breathing heavily as I approached my face to his. I was doing my best to act cute and enticing to this dork, so he could lower his guard. “T-That’s… I would love to, Lady Elizabeth. And I believe they’re at the top of the tower? Perhaps between… Hmm, Floor 90 to Floor 100, usually that’s where all the higher-ups are located.
There are many secret and hidden pocket spaces there! It is top secret stuff, so please don’t disclose this info with anybody…”
“Of course not, dear Tomas, don’t worry,” I smiled. “Now I am really interested in joining! If I happen to be able to join, would you like to become my senior? I will make sure to cook you delicious meals too!”
“E-Eh? Really? I mean… of course, I would love to!” Tomas was really easy to win over.
I really didn’t like acting like this, but now that I was taking over a new persona, I might as well use my feminine charm as much as I can.
“Hehe! Thank you Tomas, you’re so nice with me!” I smiled cutely.
“I-It’s nothing, who wouldn’t be nice with such a beauty- I mean, a magnificent genius such as you, Lady Elizabeth,” he blushed while giggling nervously.
I could notice that Mark, or well, Hendrick, was a bit tense about this, but he knew this was necessary too, and didn’t stop me. Well, it was mostly just this, and nothing more. After this, I had already won Tomas over easily.
[Sorry about it if it’s a bit awkward…] I sent him a message.
[Don’t worry, I know it’s necessary, the guy’s an idiot so it’s really easy for you. As long as he can lower his guard, all good.] Mark was being thoughtful.
[Thank you, and sorry again… I’ll make up for it tonight~] I sent another message.
[…] he only sent back a blushing emoji.
After the fighting test, we found ourselves inside a small classroom by passing through another door. In there, Tomas gave us a large test, which were like, over ten pages long.
“This is the knowledge test; you have an hour to complete it! I wish you good luck,” he sat down in front of us.
The questions not only included magic knowledge, but also history.
It was tougher than the monster battle…
