'A++.'

'It can't be...' Still doubtful, teacher Sonna made a sweeping look at Felix's answers sheet and her pupils could only enlarge every time she saw an answer colored in green.

The way the Queen correct the answers was by coloring the wrong ones in red and the correct ones in green for easier understanding.

'He really aced it!!' She exclaimed while raising her head, staring with widened eyes at Felix, who was still waiting patiently to get pardoned.

Upon noticing that she had left him waiting for long, she sent an apology and gave him permission to leave without asking him about his paper.

She knew that it was rude and would come out as offensive to Felix. She didn't think for a second that he cheated to get such results.

Instead, she was torn between believing that he had drunk photographic memory potion or actually was good enough to ace the exam simply by his own efforts.

Whatever it was, she was beyond ecstatic as she was always worried that Felix might fail like the rumors.

'If he aced the rest of the written exams, it only means that he had drunk the potion.' Teacher Sonna sighed in relief, 'That's good, with its help, he will definitely pass the practical exams as well and advance.'

Meanwhile, the other witches merely spared a glance at Felix's empty seat and focused back on their exam.

Not a single one of them believed that he had finished answering all questions correctly.

In their eyes, if they were struggling this hard to answer those latest questions, it only meant that Felix had skipped them or answered them wrong since he didn't attend classes for three months straight.

Alas...They weren't going to like the end results.

When Felix exited the lecture hall, he went straight to the closest pink garden that was outside of the main faculty.

He chose a beautiful calming tree and sat underneath it. It hid him under its shadow, making him enjoy the cool breeze caressing his face.

He looked around him and spotted Kamil and Lara sitting on public chairs while focusing on mid-air, probably having an invisible hologram in front of them.

Besides them, there were a few more witches roaming around.

Since the exams of all semesters had started at the same time, it meant that those witches were the elites of the elites, who finished the exams with flying colors.

After a few more minutes, Felix spotted Lobna and her best friend Ishtar exiting the main faculty. Since he wasn't sitting far from the stairs, he got noticed pretty easily by them.

'Felix, what are you doing here??' Lobna asked telepathically while waving her hand at him to attract his attention.

'Clearly, I finished early.' Felix replied while patting the grass next to him, 'Come chill with me, we still two hours to kill before our next exam.'

Lobna glanced at her friend and walked with rushed steps towards him. After they reached him, she sat down to his right and gave him her known friendly hug in greeting.
