A Waste

" Your stuff will be in your rooms. So don't worry about that and follow me. " The instructor said in a jolly voice. His big flaring moustache partially hid his mouth. His pompous cheeks bounced with each step.

" Okay, sir. " Lucian followed behind, his sharp eyes observing everything in his surroundings. 

' Should I go mana mode right now or when I meet her ? ' Lucian wondered.

Mana mode is a cringe name he came up with for his ability to see the physical flow of mana. He can physically see mana. Only Professor Theodore knows this ability of Lucian. Being able to see mana basically gave you eternal sight. 

He can identify and differentiate between people's mana. Use mana to locate anyone or anything that has mana. Use it to assess a person's strength and tricks. 

Having a mana flow as smooth as water was another advantage he carried. Not only does he have a smooth mana flow, but he can mould his mana like clay.

People train for years to be able to master their mana flow, but it just came naturally to Lucian. The fact that a normal person has blue-coloured mana and Lucian's mana is golden is enough to set him apart from everyone. 

Why ? How ? Nobody knows.

What Lucian knew was that the girl carried a monstrous level of mana and he wanted to see it soo badly.

Turning his mana mode on, he saw the blue waves of mana flow through his surroundings. 

It's like a blue smoke, that everyone leaves a trail of. The mana is constantly produced and lost by the body. 

" In this room, all the participants are inside. Now, child, I know you are from the Sandiri Academy but don't forget that you are paired with the Toscos girl. So try not to fight with her, okay ? " The instructor said. He has seen countless people get thrashed by her. This is the resident building. Calming them down would be troublesome, tiring and a little dangerous.

But good for the instructor. Lucian does not plan to get in her way. 

" Oh don't worry about that, sir. I won't do anything. " Lucian said with a bright smile. 

" I hope you obey your words. Well, please go in child. Best of luck. " The instructor said. The main event will begin in 3 days, today is just for introduction and settling down. The instructor said best of luck because he knew Lucian was paired with the Toscos girl. 

" Thank you, sir. " With these words, Lucian turned towards the huge metal door behind which all the participants were supposed to interact with each other. 

Pushing them open, all the faces turned to see who was the newest participant.

Lucian's shiny grey cloak, the symbol of the prestigious Sandiri Academy was enough to catch everyone's eye. But, Lucian's eyes scanned the room for the source of large mana. 

And to his surprise, he couldn't. Was she not in the room ? 

" Hello there. " A woman, the attedant spoke politely.

" Hi " Lucian replied with a bright smile. But his eyes were still navigating the room.

" I will guide you to your seat, please follow me. " The lady said. Lucian quietly obliged.

" Will I be sitting beside my partner ? " Lucian enquired. He could see the two empty seats that they were approaching.

" Yes, child. " She answered.

" If your parenter is not here in 1 more minute then they will be automatically disqualified. " She commented.

Normally Lucian does not like unnecessary pieces of information. But, this one gave him allot of stress.

' SINCE WHEN DID SUCH A DUMB RULE EXIST ??!! ' Lucian internally screamed.

If she does not come, then the mission would basically be a waste of time and resources.
