Kenric raised an eyebrow as PN61A completed her magic trick. His head then tilted to the side ever so slightly as both Roxy and Miki excitedly praised the trick. It's not that his eyes could follow whatever it was that PN61A had done in her trick, but it wasn't something he would expect The Academy to be showing them. Clearly they were not part of the test, but more likely that the man behind them was going to be the first sign of something. That only left the question however, as to what were they doing out here?

The crowd of applicants now huddled together a little more closely, as if appearing to be more interested in PN61A's magic show.

But they were not. 

The man who suddenly appeared had now begun to slowly descend the steps of Roontah. Through his glasses he examined the applicants carefully, but with no expression on his face. He kept one hand kept in his pocket as he walked over to the crowd and casually smoked his elegant wooden pipe. With the sun now shining off him; his silver glasses and hair, his coat adorned with golden buttons, buckles, and chains-it was a mystery how no one noticed him before. Yet, everyone remained silent as he himself quietly approached them all. The man stopped once he was a few meters away from PN61A, Roxy, and Miki. He brought his hand up to his chin while he examined them without their knowledge. Then, he grabbed his pipe with his free hand and removed it from his lips as he exhaled a large plume of smoke.

There was an actual stunned silence from the crowd this time, as everyone stared in disbelief.

Kenric's shoulders hunched in as he sighed. [color=ed1c24]"Now what . . ."[/color]
