Chapter 2 - Capital

Wilhelm's face is one of confusion.

The woman sees the face Wilhelm is making,

"Hey, answer me when I'm asking you a question. Are you deaf or something?"

Wilhelm looks at the woman,

"Where the hell am I?! Who are you!"

Earning himself many looks from people near him With some whispering.

The woman looks at him like he just said something incoherent,

"What the hell does that mean? You're in the capital dumbass! And how dare you ask someone's identity like that. My name is Elizabeth rosebeth"

Wilhelm's eyes widen and he's about to talk when Elizabeth grabbed him the collar of his shirt,

"Are you here to cause some bullshit kid? Come on, talk!"

Wilhelm got raised a few inches in the air by Elizabeth,

"I don't know how I got here! I'm from Akka village, I was just walking when suddenly I'm here!"

Those words got him more stares, then a laughing old man approaches them,

"Ms. Rosebeth, if what's he's saying is the truth, then he might be here for the academy's entrance exam"

Elizabeth looks dumbfounded, she looks at Wilhelm and then back at the old man,

"That's today? I thought it was tomorrow"

She released the grip on Wilhelm's collar which made him land on the ground with a thud,

"Well, sorry for that. But it seems that you're late. You see, our academy have a system that prevent people from not attending the exam when they already paid the fee. You've just got transported nearest person who's from the academy to guide you there"

She pinches the bridge of her nose and looks at him again,

'They really need to change that damn system... Wait... Aren't those system just for brats of noble blood. And this kid definitely isn't a noble. He's wearing rags, he has low mana, and he probably still hasn't trained to discover his magic type yet. Such a pain... At least I got a story to tell Julian when he get back'

She smirks,

"Hey kid, follow me. I'll help you find the academy"

Wilhelm looks at the old man who just sigh,

"Just follow her kid"

Which he does.

After walking for a while, Elizabeth looks back at him,

"By the way kid, what's your name. And aren't you a little too young to attend the academy?"

Wilhelm scoffed,

"My name is Wilhelm. And I'm 17 years old. I'm old enough to attend it"

'Not that I want to, if only Jane didn't force me'

Elizabeth just smirked and looks forward again,

"Wilhelm and 17 huh, with that babyface you'll be mistaken for a 14 years old by everyone kid.

Well I shouldn't call you kid, cause we're not that far off in age after all. I'm a third year in the academy. I'm 19 years old."

She picks up the pace while laughing a little,

"Walk a bit faster would ya, we're almost there"
