Chapter 255 The Elemental Affinity Test



“I have to say, your control over your mana surpassed all of the mages that I have met in my entire life. Even the strongest mage that was registered at the Mage’s Association couldn’t hold a candle to your level of mana control.”

“You passed this test as well.”

William declared Allen passed the mana control test as he walked towards a wall and injected his mana towards that wall, causing it to open up an entrance that led to another testing room.

After entering the testing room, William informed them.

“This is the last test that will determine your rank as a mage. The element affinity test.”

When they entered the testing room, William presented the device that would test Allen’s elemental affinities.

Unlike before, it wasn’t the crystal ball mounted on top of a pillar. But it was a crystal pillar with spiky crystal shards beside it that protruded from the ground.

“Like the first test, place your hand on the crystal pillar, but this time, inject your mana into it. And by what I said about injecting, please add only a little bit of your mana. I can’t afford to pay for the losses if you destroy the mana crystal pillar.”

William pleaded to Allen so that he wouldn’t inject too much of his mana into the crystal pillar. After all, he knew that from the previous tests, Allen possessed a monstrous amount of mana, but unlike those mages who had vast mana reserves, Allen could perfectly control his mana.

The greater the amount of mana a mage had, the more difficult it was to control it, but Allen seemed to destroy all the common sense William had as a mage. And since William had witnessed Allen’s perfect control over his mana, he warned Allen not to destroy the mana crystal pillar since it was much more expensive than a mana crystal ball.

As for Allen, he wasn’t someone who would destroy anyone’s property, especially if they told him not to. As for the mana crystal ball that he had destroyed, in his defense, that test was similar to insulting the amount of mana he had. So he had to destroy the mana crystal ball to show his dominance.

Allen, with his <Supreme Perfectionist> wouldn’t accept it if he didn’t perform the test with perfect marks. So if he had to, Allen would overdo it as long as it didn’t cost the lives of others. He wasn’t a psychopath who would kill just anyone, especially someone who was innocent.

With those thoughts in Allen’s mind, he walked toward the mana crystal pillar and placed his hand on it. Allen manipulated the mana in his energy reserves as a strand of his mana left his hand and was injected into the mana crystal pillar.

After his mana strand entered the mana crystal pillar, the mana crystal pillar showed reactions to his mana strand as it scanned the properties of his mana while analyzing his elemental affinities from his mana signature.

One should know that the mana of a person cannot have the same mana signature as another person. Mana was similar to a fingerprint in terms of identification as it was unique to the point that even twins and siblings wouldn’t have similar mana signatures.

Because of that unique property of mana, the purpose of the mana crystal pillar was to analyze the property of mana that was injected into it to find out the elements that were in that mana.

Even expert mages couldn’t release or use what they called “pure mana”. Pure mana was magic energy that didn’t contain any impurities or elements.

And since an expert mage with high mana control couldn’t even manipulate his mana to remove the elemental properties of it, the mana crystal pillar would detect those minuscule amounts of elemental properties contained within the mana to identify the elemental affinity of a mage.

And with Allen’s monstrous mana control, he could even inject pure mana into the mana crystal pillar so that it couldn’t detect his elemental affinities. But doing so would defeat his purpose of having a high-ranking identity in the Mage’s Association.

So with Allen’s mana control, he made sure that the mana strand that he had injected into the mana crystal pillar contained all of his elemental affinities.

In just a matter of seconds, the mana crystal pillar finally shone in response to Allen’s mana strand as it displayed numerous colored strands floating inside the mana crystal pillar. Those colored strands symbolized Allen’s elemental affinities.

“Impossi- never mind, I admit defeat.”

Despite being shocked by Allen’s test results, he stopped himself from having an outburst since it would be a lie if he didn’t expect Allen to surprise him again in the last magic test.

Not to mention, Allen already possessed vast mana reserves that could rival a god’s while possessing unrivaled mana control. So William dared to claim that after witnessing Allen’s test results, nothing could surprise him again.

Putting those thoughts at the back of his mind, William surveyed the mana crystal pillar again to make sure that he didn’t make a mistake. He even rubbed his eyes to make sure that his eyes weren’t faulty due to his old age, and as he had expected, he didn’t make a mistake.

“Sigh… I am getting old. To think that you have all elemental affinities and there are even elemental affinities that I do not know of.”

William recognized that all of the elemental affinities that were recorded in history were present in the mana crystal pillar, which meant that Allen indeed had all the elemental affinities. And not to mention, there were even unidentified color strands that were, without a doubt, elemental affinities that weren’t recorded yet.

That was to say that Allen was an unprecedented prodigy in the history of mankind when it came to magic!

If he wasn’t already old and had his potential already exhausted, he would have begged Allen to become his magic teacher. Looking at Alisceon, who had been accepted as this magic prodigy’s student, William could only sigh.

“You passed this test, again.”
