hello please state your name, Cypher Scarlett I'm here to sign up for the tournament of hawthorn academy is this the right place? Cypher Scarlett you said well your in the right place but by the look of you your like the rest of the common folk who look like they don't stand a chance but as is my job I'll sign you up your number is 233 please go to gate 2 where you will be suited in appropriate attire and wait for the numbers to be called.
Thank you sir I'll be on my way as I make my way to gate 2 I can see hundreds of people gathered in the stands and about 30 people are next to me in Armour, robes and all types of gear as I make my way up to the front of the line I'm fitted in some old Mage robes and given a weapon of my choice I decide to go with twin fighting batons and make my way to the waiting room when I get there I see tons of Grimoires of all shapes colors and designs but out of everyone in the room it's looks like I'm the only one without one so instead I take the twin batons or tonfa as there called and start practicing as everyone is there own thing people start to look over at me and quickly relize I'm without a Grimoire as I keep to myself I know as soon as I enter the field I'm gonna be targeted cause I'm easy pickings to these people.
excuse me may I have your attention will the following participants from block 2 please enter the arena numbers 200-350 please enter the arena I repeat 200-350 please enter the arena thank you.
without much time to prepare I head out to the arena as eyes looking at me with disgust and greed watch me enter the field.
alright for the first challenge this is contest on fastest broom flyer the person who can pass the course first scores the most points. please head over and pick a broom and get started.
as everyone heads over I join them to get on a broom as the flag gets waved everyone starts up the broom and starts to soar off but without magic to power the broom I'm stuck on the ground thinking of what to do I grab a jar of pixie essence from my bag and spread it over the broom as it starts to float as I get up to height I start to join the others as I catch up in last place the obstacles become apparent of there purpose and with hardly any control of my broom become nearly impossible to dodge as the race concludes I end up in last place with most of my competitors chuckling to themselves about everyones performece who behind them meaning I was receiving the brunt of the mocking but with no time to care off to the next trail of the event.
alright competitor's the next event is magical creature identification there are hundreds of animals and you each will receive a magic device that can record your awnsers once someone has the right awnser the creature will disappear from the field limiting the number left from points to be received on once your device is received please go to the starting line and when the sound goes off you may begin.
as we all make our way to the start the bell goes off and I start running around gaining points after points after years of studying magic I've learned tons about magical species making me a somewhat expert of the subject slowing me to have an advantage by the end of the trail I've completed 64 percent of all species making me be in the lead of round 2 but I'm still not in first place overall far from it.
alright participants of block 2 for your final challenge this will be a magic competition feel free to hold nothing back cause if you do it could be the reason you walk out of here today.
after hearing that I knew it was coming but I've prepared myself as best I can smoke beetles for a distraction, paralyzing darts for tge heavy hitters and fire eating bull ants for emergency purposes. after all my items are checked I go out to field ready for the onslaught I'm about to face,
alright ready set let the battle commense.
as people start pulling our Grimoires and spells start going everywhere I have to dodge the 30 some people who currently on my tail as I let off a smoke beetle I quickly make my way to the center so they lose me well shooting off a few darts to knock out some of the competition well in the center of conflict I set off my fire eating bull ants to cause a scean after all my tricks are gone I start going around and using my tonfa I try to defend against some of the weaker opponents who are after me but not having much defense I'm eventually knocked out and when I wake up I'm back in the waiting room and it seems all my injuries were healed by someone as I get up to go back to the field to receive my score I get out there and the winners are chearing well everyone else in the stands are having a laugh at our defeat as I'm given my score I'm told to go over to the front desk area where they will record it and give me an awnser on if I get in or not still clinging on to hope I make my way to the front desk and well I cant help but stare off in the clouds about possibly being able to learn magic with some of the greatest books of magic I accidentally bump into some as out stuff fall I quickly help pick everything up.
ouch you need to watch where your going commoner, sorry sir I didn't mean to bump into hear your stuff without saying anything he scoffs grabs his score paper and walks off as I go to hand in my score I look at it to relize this isn't mine I accidentally gave that gut the wrong one as I'm about to turn around the lady at the front desk grabs my score sheet and scans it.
