Oh… so she really tried to cast a spell on me. She was testing whether I was lying about being Ambly-blessed. I couldn't blame her. Even as a teacher, she didn't seem to know what Ambly's mark actually looked like. So it probably wasn't common knowledge.
"Mind control, Mrs. Vance?"
Her eyes flew wide open and she snatched her hand back. "Huh… you either have an immense mental threshold, or you're telling the truth."
"Telling the truth," I said. "I have no reason to lie."
"Maybe." She nodded. "Anyway, I just wanted to check myself in person. You're free to go, Mr. Walker."
"Thank you, Mrs. Vance." I replied, then rubbed the back of my head. "One more thing… when will we be tested for the combat class… thingy?"
"That test won't be happening today. If we're lucky, tomorrow. But don't count on it." She said. "Because of the upcoming tournament, the arena is almost always full."
"Ah… right, okay."
"Mm." She nodded. "Don't be late to your next class, Mr. Walker."
"Yes, ma'am."
