Danil's Score

The first result quickly appeared.

-Magic DensityScore: 61-

Alvin and Romario nodded, followed by their Familiars. "That's a good score. Danil has some talent."

Julia was even happier. "Way to go, Danil!"

Danil seemed a little embarrassed by the compliments, though. "Eh? Oh! Right! Of course! As expected of me! hahaha!" Since Julia was only thirteen and you could only join the academy at the age of twelve, that meant Danil was only a single year old. His youth was easy to see through his reaction.

The worker didn't pay attention to that and simply called the following test. "Next, magic control."

As soon as he said that, hundreds of small energy spheres appeared around the room. They quickly began to float around at a relatively high speed, but it was still possible to discern them easily. It was also possible to see that they had three different colors, green, yellow, and red, with red being at the center. "Just use your Magic Energy to hit each target one by one. The power of the strike matters not, only your control. The more central the hit is, the higher your overall score. Naturally, try to hit the red marks. You one three minutes."

Danil nodded and immediately controlled his magic to shoot a small concentration of energy. The moment he shot for the first time, the timer began to countdown.

Linfel looked at that and found it quite interesting. Still, he had a few doubts. "Why can these tests ascertain if a Familiar can go independent or not? Even if they don't have some good magic overall, they could still live on their own by performing some odd jobs, no? After all, most humans in this world aren't Maguses but still have their jobs, just like your father."

Alvin pondered about it. "To be honest, even I am not certain why it is the case. If I were to guess, anyone willing to employ a Familiar would only do so because of its ability to control Magic Energy. Familiars aren't very common, you know, so it isn't like anyone is going to simply accept them as if they were some normal person looking for work. That also goes for other things like residence searching and similar things."

Linfel nodded. "I guess it makes sense."

Danil continued to shoot at the targets, most of the time hitting the Yellow or Green parts. He also managed to hit a few reds, but they weren't as many. Soon, three minutes were gone, and the alarm sounded. With that, all the targets disappeared at once. Naturally, the results quickly followed.

-Magic Control Score: 44-

Julia and the others sighed. Danil's inexperience was made pretty obvious with this test.

"Don't worry, Danil!" Julia quickly cheered the Familiar up. "Your average score is still above 50 at the moment. Do your best in the final test!"

Danil nodded. "Yes, I know. My Magic Control was my weak point anyway, so I'm not surprised. I need to train more."

The worker then changed to the last test. "Alright, the last test is the simplest. Judging by your previous tests, you are still a Low-Grade Familiar. I'll show you a target, and you need to attack it with a simple wave of pure Magic Energy. No other types of attack are allowed. Simply put, this is a Magic Power Test."

"Low-Grade Familiar?" Linfel asked Alvin.

"It is the same as the Magic Stones. If you pay attention, the yellow color around Danil is pretty pale. That is the mark of a Low-Grade Familiar, just like Magic Energy and Magic Energy Stones. Even a Magus's Level can be further divided into Low, Medium, and High-Grade Magus. For example, Felia and I have just become Medium-Grade Level One Magus and Familiar not long ago," Alvin explained. "I thought it was pretty obvious, so I didn't comment before."

Linfel had to admit he was right. "Well, that's true. I did see the difference in the color density of the Familiars with the same color. Well, that makes things even more simple. I quite like this system you guys use."

The next target appeared, looking like a barrier made of shining diagrams that came out of the ground. "Alright, just hit it with the strongest magic Energy Wave you can. Don't worry about everyone around you. The testing area is protected by a barrier to prevent Magic Energy leakage," explained the worker.

"Go! Go! You can do it, Danil!" Young Julia cheered even more. 

Alvin, Romario, Linfel, Felia, and Calisbin smiled after seeing that. They all nodded at each other and joined the chorus. "Go! Go! Go! You can do it, Danil!"

Well, poor Danil only felt even more nervous with such an audience. However, seeing how Julia cheered for him, he truly wanted to do his best.

Danil's Magic Energy began to circulate and expand, being dragged out of Danil's core as fast as he could. He continued to accumulate more until he reached the point where he couldn't control any more Magic Energy. Finally, he shot it forward, hitting the wall of magic diagrams.

*Bang!*

The Wall lit up, absorbing the Magic Energy wave. It was made to match Danil's level as a Familiar so that its test would be fair. After all, a Level Two Familiar, even if not talented at all, would have more strength simply because of the Red Magic it could control.

A second later, the Magic Energy dissipated, and the wall of magic diagrams returned to normal. The test result, naturally, appeared as a result.

-Magic Power Score: 55-

-Average Test Score: 53.3-

"Hahaha! I did it!" Danil quickly left the testing area and jumped into Julia's embrace. The young lady, obviously, was just as happy.

The worker faintly smiled and shrugged his shoulders. "Alright, you two. You can wait here or go out to finish Danil's registration. He is an independent familiar from now on." He was a little surprised, actually. For a familiar so young like Danil, being able to achieve a score above 50 wasn't easy.

Julia then took a deep breath and pushed Danil away a little. "So, you can go now. Live a good life."

Danil quickly floated around before laying on Julia's head, though. "I already have a good life."

Alvin and Romario smiled. Their Master Familiar Connection would definitely increase a lot in the future.

Wholesome!

Don't forget the comments and power stones, guys. ;)
