Inhuman Warlock

"These are the limiters. Just know, they aren't to protect you from being expelled. Instead, they are to save lives. Because using gifts in flights without proper guidance can kill people."

"The Limiters get activated as soon as they sense that you're about to use your gifts. They send a signal to your teachers who come to stop you."

"That's not all; the bracelet also sends a high voltage shock to your body that makes you lose consciousness. Just think of them as automatic tasers that don't harm your body negatively other than what I mentioned."

"So be careful. If you try to use your gifts, you won't be able to use them. Instead, you'll find yourself hurt. Moreover, this incident will be recorded in our system, and it'll be counted as you breaking a rule. And as you know, breaking the rules three times means you're out," Xaen told the students. 

Most of the students were already aware of this except for Lucifer, who genuinely didn't know. He couldn't help but frown. It was only now that he understood why Jason had said that his ability would become his disadvantage in the academy.

'Unlike others, my ability is my strength. How could I stop myself from using my strength? I don't even know what's the threshold of my human strength and from where my abilities start?'

'There's no difference. In order to be safe, I'll have to stay away from using the slightest bit of strength. I can't even use my human strength to be safe. This isn't good. Can I even open the door without setting that thing off and getting electrocuted?' he wondered, frowning. 'I'll need to talk to a teacher about it later.'

"These two are two of the major rules that are broken most of the time. So keep them in mind always. As for the other rules, a booklet will be given to you in class. You can read that to understand the other rules," Xaen told the students, attracting their attention. 

"On a different note, there's one more important thing that you need to remember," he further added. 

"There will be a yearly exam at the end of each year. And if you fail the yearly exams twice, you'll be expelled as well."

"On the other hand, the ones who perform the best in these exams will be given special rewards that you would love," he told the students. 

"With that, the information that I'm supposed to give you is over. Now time for me to learn more about you," he said, smiling brightly. 

'Here it comes, he's about to start,' Jason thought as he glanced at the chubby man in the front row. He was sure that he was going to be called on stage. 

The Dean raised his finger towards the chubby boy who started sweating as he saw the Dean pointing at him. 

He soon breathed a sigh of relief as he saw the Dean move his finger, which soon reached Cassius, but it didn't stop there either. It finally stopped on the next seat where Lucifer was sitting. 

"You, come on stage," the Dean told Lucifer.

Lucifer blankly stood up, not understanding. Jason had said he wouldn't be called, but he did get called. 

He glanced briefly at Jason, who had an apologetic look on his face. 

"Come to the stage, first," Xaen repeated. 

Lucifer finally started walking towards the stage. As the chubby boy was first to get scared, watching someone else being called, he couldn't help but chuckle lightly. 

Unfortunately for him, that was heard by the Dean, who looked at the chubby boy in the first row. 

"You also come on stage," he told the boy whose mouth opened wide along with his eyes. 

The chubby boy stood up, cursing his stupidity. When he was safe, he shouldn't have made a noise. 

'So that's why I saw his luck as bad. Because he wasn't supposed to be chosen, but he did,' Jason thought as he frowned.

Lucifer stepped on the stage. Behind him, the chubby boy also stepped on the stage. 

"You also come to the stage," the Dean further told Dash, who was sitting near the blind boy. 

'What the f*ck? This guy is calling more than one person this year?' Dash thought as he stood up as well. He walked towards the stage as he couldn't refuse the commands. 

His grandfather was a teacher here who was on the stage. He was looking at everything. 

The Dean next called the blind boy Ren.

He didn't stop here as he seemed like he wanted to call more people.

He finally looked at Cassius, returning his gaze. 

"Little boy, you also come on the stage. Don't be shy," the Dean said, laughing. 

Cassius also stood up without much expression on his face as he stepped on the stage. 

The five kids stepped on the stage as they watched Xaen, wondering what it was going to be this time. 

Xaen walked back to a throne that was placed nearby, separate from the teachers' chairs, and sat on it. 

The massive throne was making him look even smaller. 

"Introduce yourselves," Xaen told the youngsters. 

As Cassius was standing on the left most of the other five students, he took the lead.

"I am Cassius Ziani, from the Great Ziani family of the Capital," Cassius introduced himself before he stepped back. 

Next was the blue-haired youngster who was bullying Ren previously. He stepped forward and introduced himself. 

"Dash Franci from the Great Franci Family West," he said proudly. 

He also stepped back. Soon, it was the turn of the chubby boy. 

"I'm Rune Wanli. From the Great Wanli Family of the East."

The boy with the black glasses stepped forward next. "I'm Ren Branson, from the Great Branson Family of South."

As the others introduced themselves, Lucifer stood in the back. What was with Great that everyone was adding before their family name? Were they doing it with respect?

It was finally Lucifer's turn as the others finished.

Lucifer stepped forward as he took a deep breath, "I'm Alex Alaric from the Great Family of Alaric near the beach."

As Lucifer introduced himself, everyone else couldn't help but look at him, stunned. What did he mean by the Great Family of Alaric?

Even Jason couldn't help but facepalm himself. Was this guy trying to be expelled on the first day?

As for the Dean, he was smiling as if he found it amusing as well as cute. 

"Preposterous? How can you lie about that! There is no Great Family of Alaric! Kid, do you really take us for fools?!"
