Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 118 118 Spectators of exams

[OP: ]

In a unique space somewhere outside the labyrinth where the entrance exam of the academy was taking place, there existed a bright room filled with hundreds of magical screens showing the happenings inside the labyrinth with a few people monitoring everything.

They were looking at the students, and their actions, and were also monitoring many aspects and changes happening inside their bodies and mind while performing their actions.

This was the control room filled with complicated magical equipment as well as people who were experts in their fields, specially handpicked by the headmaster of the academy for their designated roles. And, as they were doing their work, all of them couldn't help but glance towards the centre of this vast room showing a certain large screen that was projecting the current footage of a certain place inside the labyrinth with a unique scenario that none of them had ever witnessed playing before them.

"Is it that her magic is unfathomably powerful or that the weapon, that string she is using, is strangely too strong for the creatures of that labyrinth?"

A melodious but strong male voice rang in the surroundings as the five people beside the speaker looking at the phenomenal scene before them presented their own opinions.

"Her magic is one of a kind, and so is her talent. But, her weapon isn't the only thing that is making 'that' possible."

A soft female voice that sounded attractive and curious, belonged to a human lady who certainly possessed a strong and attractive-looking body, but, her concerned smile as she looked at the scene before them made her a little different from the man with peacock's tail who had spoken at first.

"Yes, a weapon has its inherent limitations. What actually makes that terrifying scene possible is her unbelievable utilization of that special weapon. It's unbelievable," spoke an old sounding robust male voice, which had come from a strong-looking person who had bigger muscles relative to his short stature.

It was easy to tell he was from a dwarven lineage but his height was a little tall for a normal dwarf, meaning he was special, just like the other five people beside him.

"Hehehe, right Grandpa? I thought it was her weapon that was too amazing at first but then, I looked closely and saw the Mana movements happening right before the deaths of the creatures~. Hehe, the Mana movements are in a braking format too, meaning she is deciding if the creature will die or not~. Amazinggggg~!"

Just beside the older dwarf was a young-looking girl with pointed ears and attractive physical features.

She looked young but she was undoubtedly of eleven origins, that much was clear from her physical features. But, more than that, she possessed a unique aura around her, so it was possible that she was of a higher status among the elves.

"Hmmm. It is certainly deadly and unconventional. However, it is not something just anyone can do. It's possible only because of her gift, her absurd mental abilities," A male with gills and fish scales on his hands said in admiration and continued typing on the control panel before him, observing the hundreds of screens before him with his three eyes.

"Oh, she is pretty ok? Pretty people are always amazing."

The new words were spoken with arrogance, certainly, but the one who said that was a being of unearthly beauty. Someone so attractive that anyone with a weak mentality would become her slave after just one glancing at her.

A face shaped so perfectly the worldly laws seemed to have forgotten restricting her charms, a body so perfectly molded in every way that it seemed to be the creation of the best creator of the Worldline, and an aura so powerful that if she commands one to die, their bodies would follow that command even if their minds resist with all it's might.

"She, that hot brother of hers, that girl she met a while back, the one she met at the start, the one her brother defeated, the pretty one she defeated one-sidedly before starting this, and even the two who are doing something similar to her.

They all are pretty people, so they are special."

She was second only to the headmaster in this institution, so even though her words didn't quite make any sense, everyone accepted them like it was the factual truth. Pretty people were always special.

Well, perhaps not in a good way, but they were pretty, so they were special in at least some way.

"Ohhhh! Right. Those two~. Their way isn't that bad either. I would say they are doing the most logically perfect thing~. They are pretty amazing too~."

The young-looking elf drew their attention with her cheerful voice, and they all glanced at the other window with the crown prince of the Barnacle empire and the princess of the Vanraya kingdom.

They were also in an area with a summoning circle but different from the other screen that contained El and her death zone that was now pained with the blood of various creatures, this place was a little better, and didn't have anything like a ground covered with the blood of many colors and carcasses of creatures chopped in multiple fine pieces.

"They are a good team. But they will have to part ways soon if they want to maintain their rankings."

"Hmmm, they are not in a team so they must be in a temporary truce. It's a good choice, I would say. And they work pretty well together."

The peacock-tailed person and fish person approved of the duo and their teamwork but, that was it. They were just like any other test giver when they were working together.

They would have to separate to showcase their individual abilities, and these spectators were waiting for that moment.

Especially the alluring lady, or more precisely speaking, the vice headmaster of this academy was smirking excitedly while looking at the magic screens depicting some unique participants before her.

"Still though, we have quite a lot of good ones this time. It's unexpectedly better than the last few hundred years. It's like all of them were destined to be here at the same time or something.

That famous crown prince, a genius in whatever he does; that princess with him, another genius of magic; that swordsman with traditional clothing and the famous perfect noble; that strange girl with her magic guns and the other strange girl that seems too innocent for someone who possesses a power to brake even the restrictions of academy's system; that normal looking boy with so many 'girl' friends; and those other nine on the priority target screens.

All of them are giving the test at the same time, and still, these two stand above all of them. Overshadowing their pretty great achievements with their own overwhelming ones."

She was looking at the death zone that El had created. The place now covered in blood, carcasses, and red strings that not only chopped any creature of any number, level, or rank as soon as it finished materializing in that space, but, for some reason, all the other creatures in the surrounding area were running towards? that place as if they were attracted by something, so, their fate was the same as the summoned creatures.

That space had become a sight that one can call hell... if they survived after seeing it, that is. Anything that entered that place had been chopped into hundreds of pieces by those strange strings already.

And the fact that the one who was doing it all was laughing ecstatically, just showed these spectators how crazy of a person she actually was.

"A witch that loves death… and, a smart, pretty hero, desperate, and determined, for these little relatively useless points."

El was playing with her death zone to gather the points she needed while on the other hand, Lucy was going around killing any creature he came across, gathering any hidden treasure he could find, and defeating any other participants he came across either with a sudden surprise attack or, by a sincere one-on-one duel.

He was trying his best, pushing the limits of his stamina and mentality to limits, collecting the points without taking a single break from the last two days.

He was tired, the data they were getting from him clearly showed them he was tired and had depleted his mental and physical strengths.

He was clearly in no shape to even wield his weapon… but, he was collecting the points at the same insane speed that he had started with, which was absurd.

His mentality was inhumanly strong, but how he could still maintain his powers and mind even in that state, was a mystery even to these experts.

"Fascinating…"

The other five people were surprised to see that genuine interest in the eyes of their vice headmaster. It was a sight they could witness only once or perhaps twice in a decade.

She wasn't someone who showed that kind of interest in others, especially not in the students who hadn't even entered the academy yet.

Her interest was surprising for them, but, the reason for her interest was certainly justifiable.

The two she was interested in were no doubt one of the most interesting people they had all seen in their lifetimes… and, they had yet to see what these two would do when they finally meet up so, they had yet to see the limits of their powers.

"Ah, and there's her as well. Did you say she used to work in the orphanage where these two are from? And, that all three had vanished completely for the past six years?"

"Yes, vice headmaster. The data I gathered about them says she became their guardian after the death of the scum Baron Terin Knot.

She was the one who informed CBS about the shady and shitty works of that person and helped them with their investigations.

It was reported that his death caused quite a ruckus in the underground of the empire's border towns, however, thanks to all the evidence that CBS found 'relatively easily', their entire slave trading business, coupled with sixty percent of underground's illegal works were cleared completely.

Her help proved to be more valuable to them than they had first expected and the one in charge of the case even wanted to thank her for her good work later on, but they couldn't find her or the two children she had taken in even after searching quite thoroughly.

They had vanished from that place… and since it wasn't exactly necessary, they just closed that case and moved on.

This was confidential information but as I went through this, vice headmaster, many of the things inside seemed a little vague and weird, as if their investigations went so smoothly that they didn't have any need to look for the minor matters.

As if-"

"Someone or something deliberately led their entire investigation towards their case and nothing else. As if, someone wanted to keep them so focused on one thing that they could not even think of unrelated elements."

The vice headmaster had a deep smirk on her face as she looked at the screen showing Eva in the Garden of Six Seasons, El in her death zone, and Lucy in the other part of the cave killing a bunch of wolves.

Her heart was pounding like it had done the last time she was standing before an original dragon.

She couldn't even help it this time because it was out of excitement rather than because of something threatening.

"How old are they, Perry?"

"Around sixteen years, vice headmaster."

The fish person who was looking at her instead of his many screens with a perplexed look was taken aback by her question. It was perhaps the first time in his career in the academy that this person had asked him for someone's age.

It was just too new for him. And also for all the people present in this control room.

"Hahaha… muhahahahaha!"

She broke into a loud laughter afterwards, which was even more shocking for all of them.

"This is going to be fun."

But that shocking laughter still paled before the way she kissed the screen showing the two young students.

It was absurd from their point of view… they all didn't think those two strong, special, and crazy duo were so great that they deserved her indirect kiss.

But they had seen with their own eyes, she certainly did kiss them. And, they could still not believe this… it had to be a lie. Or, perhaps they were dreaming. Yeah, that was the better explanation.

They were dreaming…
