Unlike usual, Alex didn't go to train with Edric in the gym today. After all, everyone needs some time to calm their nerves before the assessment.
Alex was stretching his back while his mind remained focused on the upcoming battle. The Grand Master said that the opponents would be chosen based on one's weakness. And Alex was weak with magic spells.
The first potential opponent Alex could think of is Amanda, given she is a prodigy in magic and someone who lacks combat experience. However, there was Celestria and Mary as well from the third year who excelled in magic but were weak in combat. By no means does Edric fall in that category, so Alex wasn't concerned about facing the Protagonist.
'Everything will be reported to the King....' This assessment would help Adolf in choosing the ten champions when the time comes. As such, it becomes even more necessary for Alex to win this competition.
