Eva lives her days in the academy peacefully until their level-up exam is announced.
The first exam is a written exam and the second exam is a battle exam. They also faced a written exam and all first-rate students successfully passed.
Some of the teachers at the school were quite amazed by Reina who got the perfect score. While Wilson's teacher is starting to get interested in Eva's answers that are out of theory and very interesting.

Finally, the results of our written exam were announced. Before announcing the teacher it gave us the glad tidings that all the students in the first level graduated all.
Then our test results were shared. I nervously took the envelope in my name. After I got back to my desk I opened it.
"I got 70.." I muttered. This value is not very good. But at least I'm on the safe limit.
The lilac who was next to me got a higher grade than me. That's 80 points. But I am not inferior at all.
Until finally the whole class knows the true value of Reina. The girl got the perfect score! Even the crown prince of the Kano kingdom was greatly amazed by her because he himself lost to the girl.
Once again in everyone's eyes, Reina's image had completely improved. Everyone began to praise her as a goddess. Everyone was more and more amazed when they found out that Reina covered her skills humbly.
"Isn't that girl too perfect?" I heard Lilac commenting with a pouting face. "She's beautiful. A nobleman. Genius. Light wizard. Face's innocent. She had a lot of connections" Lilac began to calculate all the advantages Reina had in her eyes. "So far the flaws I've seen are just he's a little sloppy. But his careless attitude made everyone even more fond of him"
I didn't respond to Lilac's words. I just want to be a good listener now. After all in the past Reina and Lilac were best friends. So it's not wrong for Lilac to praise him.
"But all of that is getting suspicious" Lilac said later as she gritted her teeth. "My stupid sister changed because of that girl!" said hate. "Now my sister has dared to lie to me and steal my valuables for that girl!"
I don't understand at all. So I asked "what happened?"
"That fucking louis! He stole some booster potion where mine is! Then when I found out, it turned out that she gave it to Reina. He looks like a fool now. He did everything for that girl!" Reina gritted her teeth annoyed
Even though he and his twin brother Louis are always hostile. It's never been this bad. It was just a very reasonable enmity between brothers. But now Louis considers Reina to be more important than himself. They are blood! This was what made Lilac feel furious.
I frowned at my confused forehead. In the past, the fire sisters were very fond of Reina, and even they became followers who protected her at certain events. But now Lilac was not at all familiar with Reina. Only Louis still stuck to him.
"Don't get mad. It's just a potion anyway, isn't it? You can still buy it. I'll also give you some if you want it" I said, trying to comfort her.
I can't give you any opinion now. Lilac's right. Louis is completely wrong here because he's completely blind to his love. But I also didn't want to get involved with Louis, because from the start we weren't at all familiar.
As time went on, Lilac calmed down again. But maybe he'll blow up again when he sees Louis. Even if he tries to hold it as best he can.
After the announcement of the results of the written examination, the test of the match began. The first round is battle royal. Here there would only be fifty people who could pass to round two.
We were all gathered in one building along with the other classes. Here I can see students from classes B and C. Class A was the last class to arrive, thus becoming the center of attention, especially Reina.
That's when I also saw Vivian among them.
"Geev! The lilac!" Vivian ran over as she approached us.
"Yes! How's your grade, little girl?" lilac said arrogantly while patting Vivian on the shoulder with an extremely wide smile.
"Um..my grade is not so good." Vivian replied sadly.
"Don't grieve. Even if you're not smart enough, you're still graduating, aren't you? Then you're not really stupid. Learn well in the future" Lilac began advising in her haughty tone.
I just looked at everything while shaking my head. I know that Vivian is smarter than Lilac. Back then when he was competing with Reina, there was a lot of strategy in his mind. Although eventually he had to lose miserably because Reina's strategy was more amazing than her.
"You can definitely surpass him" I said later. I know what Vivian's thinking. She must have felt inferior because she heard Reina got the perfect score. Even though the value is also very good.
"Surely" Vivian nodded confidently. "This 95 is useless...Next time I'll get the perfect point!" he showed his determination.
Lilac almost vomited blood upon hearing her. He became misbehaved. He had not expected Vivian's value to be higher than her. It turned out that the person was disappointed not because of his low points, but because he could not get a perfect score. Lilac didn't understand the nerds' thoughts and she didn't want to know either.

There were three first-rate classes in the royal academy, namely Classes A, B and C. With 160 students. Everyone would be randomly placed in the first round, no matter their class.
The battle royal system is a survival system. There will be five arenas, namely arenas 1-5, which are occupied by around 30 students each. Thirty disciples in the same area would fight each other until only ten were left. Ten people from each arena will advance to the next round.
I was placed in arena number 5, separate from Lilac and Vivian. Lilac is in area number 1 and Vivian is in area number 4. I was quite surprised when I found out that Reina was also in area 1 with Lilac. But just for a moment. You're sure he'll graduate too, no need to worry about Lilac.
I looked at the other disciples who were in the same arena as me. Most of them are people I don't know at all. I only know the crown prince of the Kano kingdom. It's quite a coincidence that he's in the same area as me right now.
