Chapter 3 - Breathing technique
There were a few chuckles which could be heard from the crowd. Vanessa's face turned opposite with a sigh. Karl could feel the loss of respect for him in her eyes. He could not bear this.
After a minute, Karl, who was writhing in pain, stood up and started breathing rhythmically.

Cel noticed this as he realized that it could be a technique of this world.
Cael got cautious as soon as he noticed.
'System! Analyze this! ' he ordered.

[Target's movements are meant to increase the pain tolerance, strength and speed by voluntarily regulating release of catecholamines and endorphines.
Would host like to record it? ]
'Voluntarily controlling hormones? People of this world are indeed mysterious.' Seeing something that could only be a milestone in human biology if it was in his previous world, he could not help but be astonished.
But he knew that every aspect of changing biological parameters had two faces. 'Record it! But can you analyze it's side effects? '

'Hmm… I need to experiment on this technique. Using it without considering its side effects can backfire. '
While he was deeply absorbed in his thoughts, Karl angrily stood up and tried to attack him.
But before he could hit Cael, a sudden pressure pinned Karl down on his knees, it was professor Rose. 'You've been warned that you mustn't use breathing techniques in evaluation. And evaluation has already ended. If you defy me again, you'll know the consequences of defying a Sage. ' She warned him.
Karl angrily gazed upon Cael, grinding his teeth in anger. Then got mixed with the crowd, while keeping his head down in embarrassment.
To compensate Cael for this, professor Rose gave him a vial of red potion.
After a few more matches, the evaluation ended.
The results showed that Cael was assigned as an alchemist. Among the people he knew, Leo and Vanessa were new disciples, while Karl could not become a disciple and was given the place of a scouter.
Professor Rose explained that starting tomorrow, the disciples were to gather in the Sage tower. The alchemists had to gather in alchemist hall and scouters in the mission hall. Those from biobliothecarii had to go to the Great library of Agnus.
"Make sure to come meet me at the Sage tower! " Leo exclaimed, the pair had a friendly goodbye to each other.
After evaluation time was over, the group bade their goodbyes and went back to their respective rooms.
Upon arriving, Cael's pain started to grow, he remembered the medicine vial.
