The atmosphere was charged with magical energy, and the air was filled with a mysterious aura that sent shivers down the spine. Shioun and Lina silently followed the mysterious man through a long corridor illuminated by floating magical lamps. The corridor was made of black stone, engraved with glowing blue runes that seemed to watch every step they took.

As they ventured deeper, they began to hear the sounds of students inside the academy—excited conversations, incantations being chanted, and small explosions from students practicing their magic. The academy was teeming with life, like a small city thriving within its walls.

"Before you can officially enter the academy, you must pass the entrance test. This test will not be easy. Only those who are worthy will be allowed to proceed. Prepare yourselves, for this will determine your future."

Lina and Shioun exchanged quick glances. There was a hint of worry in her eyes, but when she looked at Shioun, she saw unwavering confidence. Since she met him, she had felt that he was no ordinary person, and now, standing beside him in this new world, she was more certain than ever that there was something special about him.

Shioun took a step forward without hesitation, while Lina placed a hand on her chest, trying to calm her racing heart.

"What kind of test?" Shioun asked in a composed tone.

The mysterious man chuckled slightly and said, "You will find out soon enough. Just step through this gate, and from there, your true journey will begin."

With those words, the gate slowly opened, releasing a powerful energy that made the air around them tremble. Shioun took a deep breath, then stepped forward, ready to face whatever awaited him.

He did not yet realize that this test would mark the beginning of a challenge unlike anything he had faced before—a trial that would determine his true place in this magical world...
