I created my own system

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Scoring high



As the staff guided him to a spacious room. A cozy and warm atmosphere welcomes him.

"Are they trying to calm the examinees?"

[Perhaps Creator]

A spacious room with small circular tables and sofas placed at the side, while in the middle of the room are long tables with a lane of chairs with it. Small potted plants were also placed on top of each table.

While biding his time inside the waiting room, Apollo skimmed through the information about the golems. The information was inside a flat rectangular glass that Apollo liked to swipe up and down. From attributes to the number of points allocated to each golem, it was all well listed with images inside the transparent glass tablet.

The golems are the following:

Clayguard - 10pts

Stonecolosus - 20pts

Earthforged - 50pts

steelWarden - 100pts

Titanium Avatar- 200pts

Magma Guardian - 300pts

Mechanical golem - 500pts

[Notification alert!

Time magic has been detected!

The time inside is slower than the time outside!]

"Another time magic"

He closed the tablet and decided to study time magic again.

Within five minutes students filled the waiting room and prepared for the start of the next part of the exam.

For a couple of minutes only a couple of whispers and breaths could be heard until the sound of trumpets echoed across the waiting room.

"All examinees prepare for combat!"

A feminine neutral voice suddenly sounded from all across the room. Causing confusion among some since they can't find its source.

"All students must gather as many points as possible. The points that will be gathered in this stage shall be added to your final score"

Then the floor lit up and a different set of weapons emerged.

"Take any weapons that you all most comfortable with and score as high as you can"

Immediately each aspiring academy student took the weapon they felt most comfortable with and prepared for the next stage of the exam.

"That is all, now to finally start the final exam"

The ground suddenly vibrated surprising some of the students. Then the wall began to split in half before breaking away. With all the walls removed all that is left are the pieces of furniture of the waiting room.

"You may all begin"

With those words the ground shook again but for a different kind of reason.

"Are those golems?"

"Wait why are they so big and tall!"

"Wait I didn't sign up for this!"

Some kids began to panic while some hurriedly dashed forward to gain as many points as possible.

"Jeremiah scan the vicinity"

[Affirmative!]

[Scanning complete 1000 golems are found throughout the maze. 500 Clayguard, 200 Stonecolosus, 100 Earthforged, 50 steelWarden, Magmaguardian, Mechanical golem and titanium avatar]

Apollo frowned a bit, the first three golems were fine since they were still manageable however the last three which were magmaguardian, mechanical golem and titanium avatar, seemed to be too hard for 13-year-old students.

Especially the bodies of titanium avatars and magma guardians were extremely hard to destroy and approach.

"Jeremiah mark all the magma guardians, mechanical golem and titanium avatars, I'll take care of those fellas"

[Will do, Creator]

As Jeremiah began to mark all the targets Apollo began to cast, he wanted to find out where are the other thirteen that were on the list.

"I need to make sure they can at least make it"

1000 golems against three thousand aspiring academy students.

"The golems won't be enough for everyone and one more problem"

Apollo leans back dodging a sword slash, ultimately a wall receives the might of the attack. Small pieces of the wall fall as he looks at the person who released the strike.

"You attack too loudly Edmond Williams"

"Tsk!"

Some examinees began attacking each other in order to trim down the competition, after all, no rules say it wasn't allowed.

"Sorry, but I don't have time with you" Apollo started to say as he formed his stance.

The young Lionheart planted his feet on the ground, weight-centred. Then he slightly bent his knees making his muscles tense. One of his hands was raised forming a guard while the other was drawn back ready to attack.

Edmond reacted upon seeing this so he lowered his blade to try and intercept it. Positioning his sword vertically, he tried to create a barrier that would protect his upper body and face from the upward strike.

However, Apollo suddenly changed his stance, swiftly transitioning he shifted his weight and began to lower his upper body. One of his legs steps forward creating distance from the other. In fluid movement, he raises his leg and releases a nuclear kick. Catching Edmond off guard, his opponent's sword which was in a vertically low position was useless as his opponent's legs aimed at his temple.

He expected an uppercut however he received a kick, and his focus was mainly on Apollo's fist which made it impossible for him to catch his kick.

"Damn it" he could only say before losing his consciousness.

Edmond fell on the ground before being accidentally stepped on by Apollo.

"Gotta hurry"

[Notification alert!

With such skill execution the Practitioner fighter skill is elevated to Amateur fighter (Rank D) ]

"That's a good thing...now where are my future classmates"

He already receives the information about the type of their mana and background so all he needs to do is to locate them.

Apollo released the same spell he used in the banquet, that way he could find their mana signature and the type he saw from the file.

"Find them!..wait"

Suddenly Apollo halted when he noticed something

"All of them are together?"

On one of the corners of the maze, fifteen students were together, hunting golems in order to gain enough points.

"Hmm..this won't do"

Still skeptical about their ability, Apollo decided to send some golems on their way.

"Maybe it's okay to send some steel warden"

So he went towards a steel warden who was about to attack a student and decided to throw the giant golem towards the direction of his future classmates.

"They are at least 10 more steel warden it seems like more students are joining together"

However, it didn't really bother him instead he approached another golem before kicking it away. The poor golem flew into the air towards the direction of fifteen 13-year-old kids.

"BOOM!"

An explosion could be heard along with a painful cry from the golem.

"That should be enough"

[Creator someone just defeated a titanium avatar]

[Creator someone just defeated a Mechanical golem]

[Creator someone just defeated a Magma Guardian]

"Oh what's this seems like we have some monsters here"

He said as he threw another golem into the air.

"Alright Jeremiah show it to me"

Immediately upon his command, Jeremiah shows the map of the maze.

"I see now then let's end this"

Seeing all the marks Apollo closed his eyes as he made the space he was standing his territory.

Mana rose up on the ground while Apollo began casting his newly created spell.

Sparks of fire began to gather on his palms and soon compressed into tiny dots. Soon tiny, pulsating flashes of light, resembling tiny yellow or red dots appeared. Those dots turn blue before dancing freely in the air.

It was one of Apollo's newly created spells. It was a spell called.

"Firefly"

Soon these fireflies flew all across the maze surprising those who were initially busy gaining points.

"What are these?"

"Don't touch them you lunatic can't you see, it's a spell!"

"They kind of calming to see isn't it?"

"Yeah"

All sorts of words were thrown towards the sea of dots.

[All targets have been located you may proceed Creator]

The sea of floating blue dots floated and attached themselves around the target golems, Apollo took a look at the vicinity of the golems.

"It seems like the coast is clear," Apollo said then he snapped his fingers.

BOOM!

Hundreds of different explosions simultaneously happen shaking the entire maze. Dark clusters of smoke can be seen in different places and some aspiring students fainted due to the combined sound of the explosion.

Not only the students but also the teachers who were watching the exam were surprised. They felt the abnormal intensity of the attack and couldn't help but be amazed and worried.

"What the hell is up with that spell" he shakingly said as he tried to drink water.

"I could still feel the tremor brought by the simultaneous explosion" another teacher said massaging his head.

"Another Lionheart," a female teacher said looking at Apollo with her cold eyes.

[It seems like you overdid it, Creator]

"Well did I?" Apollo confusingly said as he looked at the now dark sky and almost wrecked maze.

Seeing the devastation the boy finally realized the severity of his action.

"Well....at least nobody died right?"

[You hope nobody did]

Apollo couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah it's my fault" he said weakly then he suddenly noticed something glowing on his wrist.

"What's this?"

He began to inspect it only to see a couple of numbers.

"76,000"

[ It seems like that's the points you got from the golems]

"Yeah I think so too"
