Chapter 56- The Tower of Trials. (1)

The most recent challenger to face the Tower was a year and a half ago: a man named Brad Hargreaves. He was the UK’s most esteemed mage at the time and had expressed intention to take the challenge on the cusp of the formation of his eighth circle. At that time, the Tower was accessible. The hypothesis was that the intensity of the ordeal increased because of the emergence of gates. However, there came a time in which everybody who entered returned as a wide-eyed shadow of themselves. That was if they returned at all.

The fruits of the trial, though, were tantalizing in their sweetness. The choice of closure was completely unacceptable, and people argued that the challengers had failed because of their lack of talent. Brad Hargreaves had full confidence that he would pass the ordeal, and therefore entered the Trials with the People’s support.

Usually, the process takes no longer than an hour. That doesn’t mean the trial is short, but the time inside and outside the rift is different.

A survivor’s testimony explained it like this:

What is certain is that the human body can withstand one hour in reality, and if you can’t get out in that time, there is a high probability of becoming a lost child of the dimension…or a ruin.”

Brad Hargreaves lasted five minutes.

He wandered out of the Tower with huge, dark pupils full of fatal fascination, a stream of high-pitched giggles falling out of his serious lips. His face did not agree with the laughter that escaped his lungs. He, who was called Britain’s best talent when forming the seventh circle at the age of only 20, was unable to withstand the Tower’s trials and eventually lost his mind. It had a tremendous impact on the magic society at the time. Brad Hargreaves’ mental strength exceeded human limits, and he had a strong will to proceed with five stages of mana room training. When Brad Hargreaves appeared in ruins, and the people waiting for him to return safely were speechless.
