Chapter 3:

Oath selection exams begin

Knights of the white oath


"Awe...inspiring...., Hagita isn't it majestic...ahh this is the Oath City Centre, the infrastructure, and their disguise are poles apart from us" said Sakita and continues "Ahh!!![exclamation] even the retailers have such magnificent Chikara (magic is measured in Chikara), and we don't even sense that from retailers of our village". Hagita says "Yes, I am electrified to sense the Chikara of the Oath contestants and the Oath Captains..." Sakita interrupts "By the way, the Captains still haven't met us isn't it?" laughs a random guy "do you kids think they are frivolous to meet you low grades, huh?" Other random guy "Getting selected in the first place by some low grades is prizing..."

Tatsuo Sato (interrupting the locals) [an Oath Examinee] [Magic: - Crystal or Mirror Magic] "I guess it's your first time around here, Hi I am Tatsuo, maybe one of your rivals, (smiles) nice to meet u". " I am Hagita", "and me Sakita(blushing)" Sakita whispering "(murmuring into his ears) Hagita isn't he too handsome, I fell for him already, his eyes, smile, awe...I am in love." "Would you both like to accompany me to the Oath Arena, I've been there one with my sister, come." said Tatsuo.

[At The Entrance of the Arena]

"Here...at the entrance we choose our weapons (Long-sword or Katana) for the Oath exams and if we pass we get a new weapon of your choice at Oath Squad Base, at least that's what the rumor says...What you choose?" said Tatsuo. Sakita "Me...ahh...the Long-sword (after lifting) Ooo.... Isn't it too heavy?" "I guess the Katana will be a better option, even I'll take one". "Ahh...yes-yes". "I will yield the Long-sword." said Hagita.

"Those are the Oath Squad Captains, even at this distance we can sense such insane Chikara, and there comes the most powerful captain of all Akhiro Ito- the captain of Bronze Oath Squad he is the only one having 2 magic that too most unique and bewildering - Light and Shadow Magic, next to him is the Akiko Nakamura – the Red Oath Squad's Princess she has the Red Leaf Magic often called as the absolute defense. Next is Arashi Watanabe – the White Oath Squad Princess and has the Storm Magic even the Bronze Squad Captain had some bad time against her offensive abilities. Next the Purple Oath Squad Boss Isogoi Hanaga he has Piercing Chain Magic. Next is Nagajima Nara of the Green Squad he has Vine Magic and the Blue Oath Squad's Queen Ashida Ayaki having Beast Magic."

"Ahh... such insane bulk of Chikara, are they really human, and why are there body deformed?" asked Sakita. "Even their body can't withstand such insane Chikara" answered Tatsuo.

NARATOR:--
The higher ranked Squad Captains (precisely the Captain and Vice- Captain) are allowed to surgically transplant the remains of high ranked devils, which enhance their ability to use their Chikara, as devils overflow with Chikara,

these acts as an auto enhancer. This is a confidential matter kept away from the society, so as the ambience of the society remains stable and the trust on the Captains remain unscathed.

"Everyone assemble here, the Oath Exams are starting now...
Rules are simple there will be 3 Rounds, first your attacks offensive abilities will be evaluated and those who pass will qualify for the next round that will test your fluidity in using swords or katana, elapsing random combat matches and then the Oath Squad Captains will choose you, if more than one Squad Captains are after you, you will have the privilege to choose your squads.
At any point during the friendly spar, we think you aren't responding well to the attacks well, the match will end and the other guy automatically wins. Do you all get it? ...yes-yes... So here starts the Round 1." announces the Announcer.

"Ahh... not many have passed the Round 2 this year only 30....The final round will start after a break... Be ready the final showdown is about to begin in 30 minutes." says the Announcer.

"Boring.....the batch this year lacks talent... Nott... Impressed..."said Isogoi Hanaga. Akihiro Ito - "Round 3 is still left, and I already have an eye on someone..." gets interrupted by Arashi Watanabe- "Yeah they were pretty decent, at least some are better than you were at this age." (Everyone laughs except Isogoi Hanaga)

Akiko Nakamura- "The Demons attacks are increasing at the border these days. We need more bench strength and they have some potential..." Nagajima Nara interrupting Akiko - "Yeah Demonic occurrences are getting more common now and I guess we need to prepare some new models, structuring the Oath Squad Members and their duties on the outer guard but some of us need to stay there coz even higher ranking demons are manifesting more near the borders and in the outer kingdom."
Ashida Ayaki – "Hmm...that's troublesome, Curse these filthy creatures..."

"We are back, the Final Showdown is about to begin and here we'll have 15 matches, at random, with anyone... Remember this is a path of bravery, use your power to protect others, not to harm them... So let's get ready for the first match and that's between, Umero Keichi (Air Magic) and Ichika Kaine (Ground Magic)."
