FULL NOVELXO Chapter 61 Test
contemporary romance
Vale fell asleep while thinking of the various student clubs that he can join. With so many clubs within the Academies, his choices of suitable clubs are plenty and it all comes down to what he likes.
Different clubs give him different benefits. However, if he wanted to make use of his Divine Extraction System, he has to choose something that handles corpses like Necromancy, Alchemy, and other related Research Clubs.
In the end, he fell asleep while still undecided.
The next morning, he woke up from the noise made by his roommates who are also getting ready to attend their morning class.
As soon as he came out of his room to use the bathroom, he realized that Harith and Zeno are already wearing their uniforms and about to head out.
"Vale! I heard you're in Class 2… You're classmate with Leonore Roland, right? Be careful of her…" Harith greeted him in a very unusual way.
"Leonore Roland?" Vale repeated. He had no impression of her. Of course, within their classroom, there are 15 male and 15 female students.
He doesn't know all of them yet but it's not that surprising to be unaware of their names.
Zeno noticed that Vale had no idea about her so he decided to enlighten him.
"Since we're roommates here, I'll tell you who she was…"
Vale gulped as he felt that they were being too serious about this.
"The Roland Family is part of the Ritual Branch… Since you've come from a declining noble family with a weak background in the Dark Arts Faction, it's not surprising that you don't know them. However, their family is the best in Curse Magic… If you befriended her, that's good… But if you offended her, we might get implicated in her curse so be careful around her and not bring us harm."
"…"
Vale was quite speechless about this. He thought that they were truly caring about him. Instead, they simply wanted to avoid any implications if he offended the Curse Magic experts.
"I'll be careful…" Vale could only reply as he went to the bathroom to clean himself.
He still has 23 minutes before the class so he wasn't in a hurry. After all, he only needs to walk for two or three minutes.
Zeno and Harith just shrugged at his uninterested reply and left the seventh room.
After a while, Vale also left to attend his first class of the day, Elementary Spirit Law.

As soon as he entered the room, he realized that he was the last one to arrive. There are already groups chatting about the clubs they've selected while some of them were still being invited by Neil to join the Survivor's Club.
After finding his seat beside Chad, Vale turned to him and asked.
"How are you waking up so early? Are you used to this early morning routine?"
He initially wanted to ask if they have an alarm clock but he decided to ask this way instead.
"Heh… Just sleep early and you'll wake up early. Of course, you'll also get used to it." Chad answered as he shifted his gaze to the girls behind them.
"How about you, Aubrey?" He asked.
"My roommates decided to wake each other up… Since there are no servants here, we can only help each other." Aubrey answered.
The three then looked at Lisa before the latter answered.
"I'm quite used to it… So there's no problem for me. I even had time to prepare breakfast." Lisa said which impressed Vale for a moment. He didn't even have the time to eat anything.
He can only wait until their break to fill his stomach…
At this point, Professor Stella Harwin finally arrived.
She was late for about three minutes but it doesn't really matter.
"Good morning… As I've said before, we will be testing your Spirit Strands for today. I want everyone to see their current state and compare it by the end of the year…"
Professor Harwin said as she stood behind the pulpit stand on the podium of the classroom.
As soon as she said this, everyone started whispering as they couldn't contain their excitement.
"I'll be surprising everyone with my Spirit Strands…"
"Haha… Me too, they'll be surprised to see a two-strand-student attending the Vermont Academy."
"Pfft… Indeed, everyone will be surprised how you got accepted."
"Heh. This is only the beginning. The result here doesn't matter. What matters is our growth rate."
"That's right. I might be defeated in terms of Spirit Strand today, but I'll be the best one at the end of the year."
"Dream on…"
Vale and Chad were talking about today's test while Professor Harwin was preparing the Spirit Converging Crystal.
"I wonder who gets the highest score for today… Ah--why did she bring out a big crystal? Isn't it enough to test us with 20 Spirit Strands Capacity? That crystal should provide 30 Spirit Strand, right?"
"Yes… It seems so… I've seen a Spirit Converging Crystal with a 20 Spirit Strands limit so I can tell."
Vale replied as he was also surprised at this. After all, he heard that the crystals used during this test should only be a 20-Spirit-Strand limit.
"Alright! For those who don't know what crystal is this, it's called Spirit Converging Crystal. It measures the strength of your Spirit through the white strands, or what we call Spirit Strands, that will form inside the crystal after holding it for a certain amount of time…"
Professor Harwin explained as she looked at Lisa. Then, she continued.
"It's better to see how it works. Who wants to go first?"
"Me!"
The reply was so fast and it came from the proud son of the count, Neil Somerhalder.
"Very well. You can go ahead and stand on the platform. Hold the crystal tightly and don't drop it."
"Got it!" Neil replied as he stepped onto the platform and took the crystal on the pulpit. He even raised it slightly to show everyone the process.
After a few minutes, Spirit Strands started showing up as he held it closer to Professor Harwin to confirm the number of strands.
"Neil Somerhalder. Eight Spirit Strands." Professor Harwin announced. She didn't show any reaction whether it was good or bad making it a bit awkward for Neil who was expecting to be praised by the gorgeous professor.
