Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic

Chapter 164 Power Gauge (Part I)

With the instructions of the TILF. All six of us lined up in a straight line. Starting in the front was Caren, followed by Teresa. After Teresa would be Noelle and Maddison, then would be Serena, and finally me.

Our first test was the usual dummy target test. Attacking the dummy would show you how strong your magic is.

Caren was first and used a lot of mana. She managed to fire a giant ice ball. She was pretty lucky and got something good.

Hitting the dummy, her magic did 70% of a second-rank magician. She was almost three-fourths of a second-rank magician. She might make it to the third rank this month if lucky. [A/N: Changing how the damage works and writing numbers will be ridiculous. 0% Means being at the start of a magician's rank, while 99% means the peak power of a rank.]

Caren, who made her magic work, puffs out a relieved sigh after Caren would be Teresa's turn. Looking closely at Teresa, I was interested in how Teresa's magic would work.

It was my first time knowing someone with the ability to manipulate the shadow. Teresa, using her magic, used the shadow coming from her and created sharp objects coming to the dummy.

Teresa's magic did 60% of a second-rank magician. It was a bit weaker than Caren, but I don't think Teresa's magic is solely focused on high-damage attacks.

I could feel that Teresa looked unsatisfied with her results. Seeing how she did lower than Caren must have lowered her morale.

After Teresa was Noelle, Noelle used a weapon, so she would need to use her mana within her katana to do some damage.

Noelle covered herself with mana, and the katana slashed toward the dummy. It was 50% of a second-rank magician. Her results were even more pitiful than Teresa's.

Noelle, who was always stoic or cold looking, lost her cool for a bit—being the lowest in terms of power was a massive blow to her.

Looking at Maddison, her results shouldn't be low. Her damage here should at least be the third best among us.

Maddison, injured earlier, was excited to vent all her anger at the dummy. Her hostility against me had disappeared, seeing how strong I was. Her attitude befitted one of a savage, not like there was anything wrong with it.

Losing some of her sanity, I felt a spike in her power level. Punching the dummy with all her force, she did 95% of a second ranker. Her power was almost at the rank of a third ranker, which was pretty damn good.

If she doesn't slack off, she could easily break through the limits and fight people of a higher rank. Gaining her sanity, she saw her results. Seeing how it was the current highest, she couldn't help but grin.

After the berserker was Serena, Serena, unlike the others, is a rank three magician. Her power scale should be much superior to what the four had shown.

Serena's magic was absurdly strong if I had to say. Celeste's magic could easily be the best in the world.

Serena combined the six elements into one. Fire, water, earth, wind, light, and darkness. With all these elements fusing, all we could see was a blackish-red ball landing on the dummy.

Doing what she did, Serena had expected her to do this much. She must have practiced a lot to know how strong she was.

I could see the other four wary of Serena. The difference between them was a rank-up. Despite being the same age, the power they have is wide apart. Serena did 65% of a third-rank magician.

Just imagining her with my mana pool scared the shit out of me. Now that everyone was finished, it was finally my turn.

Using my mana, I made a sun the size of a lollipop. Condensing all of my mana into it with me using the sun.

I had always thought that the "sun" that I make was always lacking. While it was intense, it wasn't as strong as I would like it to be.

With enough mana, I sent the small sun into the dummy. Upon impact, my small move made a massive explosion. It was a shame I didn't have enough mana to make my sun create a black hole. I was still far away from that level.

With my attack hitting the dummy. 56% of a fourth rank magician. Everyone here was terrified by my results. Even Cynthia, my instructor, thought I was a monster.

I had already filled a quarter in as a third-rank magician. Staying here for a month would at least give me more than half of the mana I needed to become fourth-rank

My strength alone made me almost invincible within my age group. With Cynthia's instruction of me to create a magic barrier around me at all times, the chance of me being assassinated was lowered.

"Charlie Solaris, I will be honest with you. You don't need any training from me, but it would still be best to use your time to strengthen yourself even more." Cynthia said while looking at me. She would instead focus on the team that was still lacking in power.

That means my time here would only be sitting here for a month. While it was boring, I should do my best to use everything possible.

Continuing testing our abilities, our next test was our defensive test. This test requires you to dodge or block all incoming magic bullets. The longer one lasts, the better the results will be. Until you're fatally hit, the test would end.

When was the last time I did this test? Was it the start of the school year? It was when Serena and I were competing. Six months have flown by in a blink of an eye.

From my predictions alone, Maddison and Caren would do the worst. Followed by Noelle would be Teresa. After that would be Serena and, finally me.

And with that, we went to the defense training area.
