《The Beginning, The End, And Everything In Between》Chapter 18 [Poor Sweetie]
Advertisement
Farren was bored, Mr. Ruth had said that she would get two tests and she had already had one but now she was stuck on a bench watching from the sidelines while everyone else got to do their tests. Maybe people would start lining up outside whoever ran the exams office and offer their jerseys so Farren could play. Farren shook her head, completely different storyline. Movie companies would sue her in an instant, she would gladly kill a thousand people but getting sued for copyright? No thank you. Lawyers are scary, really they are downright sociopathic.
Farren lifted her head from her hand to look around, her mind went to scary places when she was bored, she could already see the courtroom.
“Farren? We found a mage that will make for a fun match” Said Mr. Ruth who had once again managed to sneak up on her.
Farren smiled, now she could use her mind and soul magic properly. She couldn’t use it in the warrior battle since all magics with the mind and soul affinity were mid or high class. It was a very hard affinity to master or just even use.
Farren got up and followed Mr. Ruth to the platform, people had followed Farren after seeing her demolish the 3rd best warrior in the Junior year. Wondering what she was doing now they saw her get up on a platform with the top mage of the 4th year. Almost everyone’s eyes widened, at first she was a genius warrior but now she’s also a mage and they’ve deemed her worthy enough to fight against that monster of a woman?
Farren got up on the stage and did the exact same as she did with Deren.
“Hiya~ I’m Farren, what’s your name?”
This time the opponent replied, and in an actual happy tone.
“I’m Enn Revee, I hope this will be a good match!”
The person she was facing was 12 years old and seemed to be an elf, she had light blue hair and long pointed ears sticking out from the blue waves and a jolly face like a much-loved fictional character on Earth, elves were normally beautiful because of their racial characteristics.
They had long, lithe legs and a streamlined body but the girl in front of her was more on the short and chubby side, like a rabbit. And Farren loved rabbits.
Farren had heard the whispers the crowd were saying, apparently, this girl was a monster with a massive mana pool and a rare affinity. Farren smirked, they haven’t seen a monster yet, but now was not the time to show them.
“Same rules as last time except high and mid class spells are allowed now for Farren, begin!” the examiner cried out, in an instant a massive flash appeared right in front of Farren’s eyes. She let out an inhumane growl.
Fortunately, covered what she was and what she looked like but didn’t stop any of her physical properties from helping her and in this case her eyes could easily withstand a bright flash without going blind.
Unfortunately, had a weakness and that was it couldn’t hide the users shadow, if anyone looked now they would see Farren’s horns protruding from her head, luckily the flash blinded the crowd too.
The flash went away to reveal the shocked face on Enn, Farren could only imagine two reasons why Enn would be shocked right now. One would be that Enn saw her shadow or two, the surprise to see that Farren was no longer in the spot she originally stood in…
Farren had used the momentary blindness that her opponent had suffered from their own spell to appear behind Enn and fire of a minor Fireball spell, except this spell was jam-packed with mana. It’s effects could probably cause more of an explosion that a fire.

Enn spun around at the very millisecond the fireball would hit and shouted
“!”
“So she doesn’t need to chant some of her spells and does with others, interesting… I’ll have to investigate later”
The fireball hit the barrier the girl had formed and she blew back from the force, unfortunately she had no burns. Enn didn’t get blown all the way back past the outer ring on the platform but Farren appreciated that, she wanted this fight to last.
{POV Enn Revee}
It had always been me at the top, every year since I had come to this academy I had been the best mage of my grade. Then I decide to see the special class initiation ceremony, if you’re a student standing on the sidelines the teachers can call you up to fight against examinee’s. I wasn’t surprised when I got called up to fight.
The girl waiting for me was eerily beautiful, her eyes were a toxic green and seemed to glow but I was sure that was just a trick of the light. Her hair was parted in the middle with one side a pitch black and the other side a white paler than snow, I had spent enough time at this school to know she must have a skill to cause that colouration in the hair.
“Hiya~ I’m Farren, what’s your name?”
The girl spoke, so her name is Farren huh? That name translates to slaughterer in a lot of languages. Oh well, everyone has weird parents of some kind.
She seems pretty happy, perhaps I should respond in the same manner. Ah but such a bother… I was raised with manners so I might as well do it.
“I’m Enn Revee, hope we have a good match!” I said with a smile, she seemed amused. By what I wonder?
The teacher said the rules, I was already familiar with them so I didn’t pay attention.
“Begin”
I wish I had paid attention
{Farren POV}
Wow this bitch is weak! I mean everything she fires at me gets broken by the first shield I put up. Maybe I’m just too strong, that’s a funny thought.
“Enn, you need to hit harder if you want to get through my first shield… and then harder if you want to get through my second and third” I smiled at Enn, it wasn’t a pleasant smile, it was a bitchy smile.
And I have most certainly mastered the bitchy smile.
“Shut up, this is just a test, it doesn’t mean anything to me” said Enn, she pissed off, very pissed off…
“Who are you trying to convince, me or yourself?”
Ah wow didn’t know a face could contort that way through natural circumstances but that’s not enough. Time to use mind magic? I think so. What should we make her see? Dead family? Being abandoned by everyone she had ever known and loved? Finding herself being dissected by me and watching as she sees me pull out every vital organ? No, I can do better than that…
I’ll make her see her parents talking about her behind her back, I’ll make her think she is worthless.
Enn had started to cast another spell but she suddenly froze, good to know my magic has that effect. She slowly widened her eyes, her stare was blank and lifeless. That sort of reminds me of the stare people give me after 5 hours of my torture sessions although honestly, I think it’s an improvement.
Oh dear, she’s started to scream, in the illusion she’s up to the part where they put her in a cell for being disobedient and not good enough. It seems one of her fears has melded with my magic, there is something in the cell with her, it looks grotesque, it’s literally made up of intestines and eyeballs. This girl certainly has an amazing imagination, we could totally be friends!

Hmmm oh dear the teacher is checking on her, he once again appeared without me sensing him. I need to figure out how he does that, perhaps when I unlock space magic and can teleport I can sneak up on him.
“Call it off”
Wait what? But it’s part of the game, and this is a very fun game. Oh dear he is giving me a serious look perhaps I should, my plan needs me to be in this school for anything to work.
I pulled back the spell. Ah she stopped screaming and is now collapsing to the floor, she looks like a rag doll.
“What magic was that? What rank are you for it?” Mr Ruth inquired, he wasn’t angry anymore.
“It was Mind and Soul magic and I’m rank S” there was an audible gasp from the crowd, rightly so too. Mind & Soul mages were thought to be extinct, just a C class Soul mage could take down an S class fire mage if they got close enough, if you're D or C ranked you would need physical contact to cast a Mind and Soul spell.
Of course, if you’re an S rank you could take an entire army and make them slaughter each other while being 8 miles away.
“Are you serious? You’re seriously a MaS Mage?”
“What’s a MaS Mage?”
“It’s the abbreviation for Mind and Soul magic idiot”
I frowned, I have officially decided that I do not like this teacher. Not one bit.
“Yes, ok sorry, I was just asking” I raised my hands in a defensive manner.
The whole audience had been quiet the entire time, obviously in shock from what had happened but they finally snapped out of it and the whispers began.
“A MaS mage? Weren’t they extinct?”
“Doesn’t this mean she can kill us all anytime she wants”
“But that’s against school rules, everyone will know it’s her if someone just drops dead”
“True, plus why would she kill us?”
“Will she be junior student council head? Only the strongest junior gets elected to that position and she managed to defeat a year 4 junior without any effort, next year he was going to be a senior and could already beat every warrior in his class”
“This is the test for the special class and she aced it, it’s rare someone takes both tests and even rarer that they actually pass, she will definitely be student council head for the juniors”
I could see everyone speaking their minds, they are incredibly annoying aren’t they. I smiled unconsciously, killing them all will be so much fun. But not yet, I must restrain myself. But they had good ideas, being student council president would put me in a good position.
I turn to Mr. Ruth, he was still looking after Enn. Perhaps she was a favourite student, his eyes were very concerned, probably because she had started to froth at the mouth… whoops? Nah just kidding she should start bleeding from her eyes soon, time to put on the act.
“Oh god I’m so sorry, is she okay? I got a little out of control there”
I put on my wide innocent eyes and an apologetic gaze. Acting was pretty easy for these guys considering they don’t have t.v’s to spot the acting tells.
“Is she going to be okay? I can take her to the nurses’ office” I said, people really seem to be falling for this sweet and innocent act, except Mr. Ruth who was yet to be convinced, he was looking at me with sceptical eyes. I needed the teachers to trust me so they can elect me as student council president, want they want is a kind, caring and strong leader.
“Do you know where it is?”
“Yup! I saw a nurse walk there while I was touring the school” I hadn’t actually but I was planning on getting a student or nurses soul so I knew my way around the school.
“Ok, you’re very responsible Farren I shall remember that” he gave me a meaningful glare like I knew what he meant, I did. I smiled and picked up Enn’s body, she groaned but didn’t move. I held her in a princess carry which must have looked ridiculous with my 8-year-old body and hers being 12. I did it to demonstrate my strength, Mr. Ruth looked impressed which was a good sign.
I jumped off the platform and walked through the crowd, they parted before me and let me through to a nearby exit. I pushed down a smile, I love it when my plans work.
I had entered a long hallway, I saw hundreds of students filing through. There was a nurse within them that I followed to a large room with a huge circle within it, it had intricate writing and patterns all around it. Men and women in robes were surrounding the circle all of them chanting something in a language I didn’t know. As soon as I saw the room I only thought one thing.
“Summoning”
The question was what were they summoning? An elemental? A hero? I was going to find out.
I dumped Enn’s body and put an invisibility illusion on it. I did the same for myself and walked towards the group. The nurse I had followed was watching from the sidelines nervously. It was probably a dangerous summoning and she was there in case something went wrong.
I crept to the middle of the summoning circle, something inside my head told me I should. Then again it could be the voices telling me to but who knows these days?
As I got to the centre of gigantic circle the chanting stopped and the whole room glowed with an insanely bright light. It felt like the sun was burning through my eyelids and my whole body felt like it was evaporating. After what felt like an hour the pain went away.
“Hi there, how are you going?"
Here is Farren's status, she has gotten to S rank after she ate Xaiver's soul and her stats have boosted, I'll make sure she does some proper training so she levels up faster. Also a need-to-know here; the affinity ranks, unlike the adventurer ranks, don't go above S rank
