Nyssa inspected the Element Scale first.

Bukod sa inscription nito, its five pans were also noticeable.

They were even color-coded.

Blue, Red, Green, White and Black.

She unbelievably looked behind her.

These people...

How stupid really were they?

When the men noticed the way she was looking at them, halos napaatras sila. What was this girl glaring at them for?

But they no longer found out the answer to their question.

Nyssa started figuring out this scale.

She took off her jade bracelet first then put it on the green pan.

Following the jade bracelet was her pearl necklace, placing it on the blue pan.

Then her pair of diamond went to the red pan.

On the white one, she put her misty globe ring.

That left her one more element missing.

She looked up for a moment doon sa guard na nasa unahan niya.

He raised an eyebrow at her as if saying 'What now?' to her.

She smirked at him saka niya hinubad ang belt niya.

It was precious, of course. Maru made that kasama nung cloak.

The cloak was for the important items and the belt was for the weapons.

However, Maru assured her she could simply create another one for her.

And so she put it on the black pan.

At first, there was nothing happening yet.

The men behind Nyssa started smirking.

But those immediately perished when the Element Scale started to shake.

"Ohhhh... Seems like I won the bet this time." The Test Master in the middle said with a smile.

The two Test Masters, however, had their mouths hanging.

The absurdity that this girl produced all valuable elements in one go made them hard believe it at all.

It was as if this lady was very much prepared.

Even the element of void, she was able to provide without any hardship at all.

"I am curious where she gets that belt of hers though..." The man in the middle said.

But no one talked to him.

Instead, his two companions were too busy looking for how much pure gold this lady would produce.

Hindi naman sila naghintay ng matagal.

After the shaking of the scale got higher in frequency, it produced smoke.

And when those smoke dissolved, tumambad sa kanila ang ilang piraso ng gold bars na nakapatong sa pinakagitna ng scale.

"T-thirteen... Thirteen gold bars." Palatak nung gwardiya sa harapan niya. Then he looked up at the Test Masters.

Agad namang napaayos yung dalawa ng composure nila.

Then the one in the middle smilingly flew down towards them.

"Thirteen pure gold. Wow... That is quite a lot.
