The Second Test
43
"I have three tests for you. If you pass one of them, I will consider you fit to move on to the next room, and I will also answer your questions."
The words sounded like ocean breezes, giving Alex the illusion that overcoming such trials might be possible and not so difficult.
"What will your test entail, Mr. Eleventh?"
"Considering your weak skills, I have prepared a simple test for you."
The eleventh knight of the Round Table raised his delicate hands, and a blue-glowing star floated between them.
"If you can take this star from me, you will not only earn a stellar promotion in your authority, but you will also pass my test. Isn't that simple?"
The eleventh flashed a smile that could melt the heart of any maiden in Camelot.
"Sounds simple," Alex said, nodding.
Taking advantage of the moment when the eleventh looked away from one of his arts, Alex used Lightning Step and tried to seize the star.
