On the other side of the door was a small room constructed out of stones. A wide stone pillar noiselessly sat at a corner. There was a yellow rune spinning slowly above a magic circle.

A bed of blooming red and green flowers was planted on a stone platform right in the middle of the room. The leaves of spider plants entwined with several dried plant veins were hanging down the platform. Mushrooms of purple and white colors were growing in the gaps between the flowers.

Four red crystal runes were embedded into each wall.

The pattern of the rune looked like a large anchor with chains surrounding it. The crystal was glowing, and the red light illuminated the stone room.

Vivian walked to the yellow rune and moved her hands around it carefully.

The once-fading light of the rune became bright once more when she finished restoring the energy.

After several minutes, she straightened her back and turned to Angele. "Climb up the pillar and stand at the center of the magic circle. I still need you to participate in a few more tests."

Angele abided in her order and he stood at the center of the magic circle.

Vivian explained in a calm tone, "This magical matrix will be used to verify your identity. If you are indeed master Henn's student, the magic circle will release a ray of eye-blinding yellow light. It can also be used to test your connections with certain creatures or people. There are several things I need to..."

A ray of yellow light suddenly illuminated out of the magic circle before Vivian could even finish her explanation and immediately turned into a cylinder of light, shooting to the top of the room.

Vivian seemed surprised. Nonetheless, she remained calm and was about to pull Angele out of the yellow cylinder of light.

*CHI*

Suddenly, the magic circle started reacting again.

A ray of red light pierced through the yellow light and illuminated on Vivian's face.

"Wait...how is that even possible?!" Vivian's expression drastically changed causing her to grit her teeth. "The red light represents...me. It should be my first time meeting you, yet the reaction of the magic circle indicates that you're...related to me."

Several seconds later, Vivian narrowed her eyes and gradually calmed down. She quickly tapped on the surface of the stone pillar.

*CHI*

The cylinder made of light produced strange noises as it began to shrink. Soundlessly, Angele was still standing at the center of the magic circle.

"Congratulations, you passed the first test." Vivian had a blank expression on her face, but still, Angele could see the struggle in her eyes. "There is still something else I must ask you. Stay there and do not move."

"Sure." Angele already knew what Vivian was thinking and knew that Henn's plan had indeed worked.

Vivian pointed at Angele's shoulders.

*CHI*

A red light glimmered around Angele's 'birthmark'.

"It is real..." As Vivian muttered this under her breath, she took out a small black ring from her pouch and threw it into the air.

The black ring flew toward Angele and started spinning at an insanely fast speed.

It almost sounded like the ring was vibrating after being thrown, with its noise echoing throughout the entire room.
