Diana and Vita did arrive to the university later than the rest, so they didnt get much time to prepare for the event they were going to participate in. In the morning, after they ate the breakfast brought to them by another guard, they walked out of the tent. Diana didnt sleep too well and her hair would have been a mess if Vita didnt help her out. Once outside, they realised that they werent the only ones who had a miserable time on the camp. A crowd of noble teenagers could be seen complaining to someone who looked like the boss of this place.

The man was quite large, with a bald head and a tattoo going from under his left eye and down to his neck. Despite the many people complaining and shouting, he still had a smile on his face as he tried to explain to the mob what they were doing here. There were some people who didnt complain. These people were either normal looking people without all of the fancy clothes. There were also some noble looking people who didnt complain. There were lots of differnet looking people here, from people with pale skin and blond hair, people with dark skin and no hair and some who even had slightly blue hair with freckles.

With some help from Vitas frightening apparence, Diana managed to get close enough to hear what the large man was saying.

"You kids dont know when to give up. I have been standing here for a week, telling you people that the entrance exam for mages will be coming up as soon as the arena is finished. Complaining to me wont help with building it faster." The man said with a tired smile as he wiped away some sweat, despite the fact it was winter and snow was falling down to the ground. The group of nobles hadnt had enough yet, as they were still standing out there in the cold. Some of them didnt even pack proper winter clothes, so they might have been caught unprepared for it. Maybe that was a reason for why they were complaining?

A guard with the university's symbol on them walked up to the man and whispered something to him. The smile on the mans face grew wide as he cleared his throat.

"Good news! It seems that the arena was completed and that we will be starting in a couple of hours. Remember, this entrance exam is based of how well you are able to fight in a duel. If any of you wish to change your entrance exam, you will have to change to a different subject to study in. If there are any more questions, please ask me or one of the guards for information." The man nodded at the end. The group of nobles disbanded and they walked back to their marked tents.

Diana wasnt quite sure on what was going on so she quickly walked up to the man. She was clearly stressed meeting someone new, but knowing that Vita was with her made her feel better.

"Exscuse me, uhm." Diana started. The man turned around and was a bit suprised to see someone so small together with a tall monster like Vita. His gaze went up to Vita and back down to Diana.

"Call me Hans. I assume you are Diana Wolfheart?" The man looked almost like one of those people who dress up as santa claus in malls, but bald.

"How did you know?" Diana asked. Hans let out a small chuckle.

"Your parents used to help us out every now and then. Those where the good days?" He smiled with his eyes closed, savoring the memories.

"Now, did you have any questions?" Hans opened his eyes and look at Diana warmly, which only made Diana feel uncomfortable.

"Hans, could you explain what we are going to do in the entrance exam? I came here late because I had to train with 'King'." Diana gestured to Vita, who stood there doing nothing in particular. Hans took a longer look at Vita. He thought deeply about what Vita was, but the only thing Vita reminded him of was a wendigo. Hans let out a long whistle before starting to talk again.

"Your one lucky gal Diana. If that is a wendigo you got on your hands, then you might even scare away everyone in the entrance exam. Haha. The exam is quite simple. Every student who studies or trains in combat are going to fight in a small tournament. Its all controlled by the teachers and by the head of safety, which is me, and the further up you manage to get in the tournament the better treatment you will get. Quite simple if I say so my self!" Hans laughed a bit at the end. Hans noticed that Vita was staring at him and smiled with warmth.

Vita stared, Hans started to feel weird.

Vita stared some more, Hans started to sweat a bit more.

Vita stared even more, Hans started to change colors.

"King! Stop Uncle Hans! He was nice to us, so we should be nice to him." Vita walked over to Diana who had walked a couple of meteres away. Hans wiped away some more sweat after Vita and Diana walked back towards their tent. There were some people who looked at Diana with curiosity, but none were brave enough to approach her with Vita around.

Hans pulled out a long list filled with names, some with and some without last names. Altought he wasnt supposed to do it, placing bets was common to do among the guards and Hans did join in on it. He had placed checkmarks next to some of the names on the list and gave one to Diana Wolfheart and her 'King'. Giving a pet such a name was odd, but it did fit a creature with a cape and crown. He laughed for himself and walked to the amphitheatre where the tournament would hold place.
