Gele released a pronounced sigh. At this point, she already knew that she wasn't dealing with the regular type of applicants. These three were weird….if not, too weird.
She scratched her head, "Okay, I admit, you guys are impressive. To finalize your successful admission, let's have a round of five questions each. If you answer four or more out of the five questions, then you are one of us. Is that okay?"
"Yes."
"Sure."
"Affirmative."
Gele smirked, "Good, let's start with you. I believe your name is Ciaran."
"Yes," the male twin responded.
The male twin named Ciaran was handsome. His looks weren't a part of the norm as he had sharp eyes that mixed well with his wavy black hair
"Who created the Book of the World?"
Ciaran's pupils dilated as he went into deep thoughts. The Book of the World.....one of the oldest treasures that recorded the secrets of Arcadia.
The answer to this particular question was a bit tricky. In actuality, many mages and warriors have had a hand in the development of the Book of the World.
So, if the question was to be rephrased, "Who wrote the Book of the World?", any supremely influential mage that had appeared over the course of Arcadia's timeline would suffice as the answer as they would have been given the privilege to develop the sacred book.
However, Gele knew exactly what she was doing!
'The question of genesis,' pondered Reve.
Gele wanted to know which prevalent figure was responsible for the origin of the Book of the World.
Reve smiled as he knew the answer...
After a few minutes, Ciaran spoke in an unclear tone. It was understandable that he wasn't sure of his answer. What he said was purely theoretical and based on his knowledge.
"The Book of the World began in the later centuries in the era of sins. It represents the absolute foundation of the Magic Tower, which still exists in this present age. It is said that this infinite item was handed down to the mages by the Immortal Witch, which led to most present mages believing that the true owner is the Immortal Witch. However, on all pages of the book were tiny signatures, unreadable by all eyes. They bore the insignia of another character in the era of sins."
"Archmage Valentine, the lady who read the stars. With the evidence of her insignia, it can also be hypothesized that she is the true owner of the book and the one to have written its early contents. As for her relationship with the Immortal Witch, that much is still buried in the earth."
When Ciaran was done, Gele gave him a serious glance, ".....Yes, I have heard this theory. Do proudly stand with it?"
Ciaran revealed a noble smile, "We, mages, believe in facts and, when this much fact has been presented before us, we would be fools to look the other way."
After his burst of confidence, a sense of uneasiness coursed through him as he connected with the silent atmosphere.
"Excellently said! It is only the failures of our kind that still believe the Immortal Witch is the true creator of the book?" exclaimed Gele.
She seemed happy with what Ciaran said and kept spewing words of praises at Ciaran.
Soon, her adrenaline died down, leading her to direct her wolf eyes at the female twin, "Lyra Drateel. Knowing your background, I dare ask you, do you know your heritage?"
Her dramatic tone got through to the female twin with red hair. Lyra solemnly replied, with hints of threats, "It would do you good to watch your words…..but, yes, I am quite aware of my heritage."
"Excellently said. Now, riddle me this, do witches exist as an independent race?"
Lyra huffed, "Yes, this particular group of sentient beings fulfill all the criteria to be called a race. As for if that is the exact name of their race, that is another issue entirely."
"Good answer. Now, onto Reve of Azea, what are male witches?" asked Gele.
Reve effortlessly said, "There are no such things as male witches. Witches are female subspecies. As to the male equivalent of this subspecies, they are called Wiccans."
"Another good answer," nodded Gele. She went back to Ciaran, "Ciaran, to close this question theme, what is the name of the race that both witches and wiccans belong to?"
Ciaran answered beautifully, "Morrites. Male morrites are wiccans, while female morrites are witches."
"I remain impressed," praised Gele.
She moved on to Lyra, "How many annihilation wars occurred in Arcadia?"
Without thinking, Lyra worded out, "Five—-"
She stopped just as she was about to finish her words, making the blossoming smile on Gele's face fall off.
Lyra hesitated, "Indeterminate. While four annihilation wars were recorded in the era of sins and one was proven to have occurred at the end of the dark era, records of other annihilation wars in the dark era have been surfacing."
Gele sighed, "Another right answer."
She went on, "Reve of Azea, here's your second question. In what year was the last annihilation war?"
"Year 6500 A.E. That was the exact year when it began and was concluded. It was the only war that played out that way," explained Reve.
'Ahhh, what is with this perfect answer rate?!' inwardly screamed Gele.
She went on to ask a couple of questions and eventually successfully reached the final round of the interview.
Reve, Ciaran, and Lyra had successfully answered all their questions and were at ease knowing they had passed the interview.
Gele started the last round with a look of annoyance, "Ciaran, Who was the first Aura King?"
"I believe it is Seth, the paragon. He was the first to take on the mantle of the Aura King," pronounced Ciaran.
However, Reve simply shook his head to that response.
Not long after, Gele laughed out loud, "Wrong. Finally a wrong answer! I was starting to think you are too good for us."
She said, "Oh, lovely Lyra, can you kindly lend a helping hand to your brother?"
Not playing the same game as Gele, Lyra proudly stated, "If that answer is not credible, then I can't think of a better one. My apologies."
"It's alright. I expected no less," mocked Gele.
She smiled at Reve, "Reve of Azea, would you be the one to answer that question?"
"If that is want you want," teased Reve.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Gele released a pronounced sigh. At this point, she already knew that she wasn't dealing with the regular type of applicants. These three were weird….if not, too weird.
