Summary
Having passed through the walls, the other students felt that was cheating and Mash had to find his way in the maze. They start yelling him to go home, and Mash agrees to their points, but given his situation, he can't just go home. Lemon decides to speak, telling everyone that Mash isn't at fault. Claude wants she to shut up or she will regret it, but Lemon continues and explains that Claude told her to prevent Mash from reaching the point and he would allow her to pass. Lemon also wrongly concluded that Mash proposed her, and even though Mash denies it, she kept insisting he did.

Claude confess that she set up Mash, but since its his exam, he feel he can fail students he don't like. He explains that Mash and Lemon are commoners and the school is for the elite. Claude decide to fail both Mash and Lemon, unless they decide to challenge his decision. Mash then went and just snapped Claude's wand to everyone's surprise. Wahlberg shows up and silence everyone. He announces they are moving to the final interviews and from now on he is in charge of the exam. Wahlberg tells Claude that he wish to speak with him later, which is not something Claude wanted to hear.

Wahlberg proceeds with the interviews starting with Mash, he teleports him into a big hall. He asks him why he chose their school and Mash just says that he wants to live in peace with his family. The other teachers weren't happy with the answer and wanted more explanation, but Wahlberg found it sufficient and proceeds. He heard that Mash went bad to save a girl, even though he was about to fail his exam and wonders why. Mash tells him that otherwise he would have regretted it. Wahlberg starts laughing as he finds Mash to be one that acts before he thinks, but tells him that there are many creatures stronger than him and wonders if he would take same actions if he found himself hopelessly outmatched. Wahlberg then showcase his magical power that make the other teachers shiver and suffocate and wonders what Mash will do if he is facing him. Wahlberg then explains his powerful magic that allows him to transfer the soul of the person that he cherishes the most into the doll, at the same time Regro loses consciousness as his soul moves to the doll. Wahlberg continues to explain that if he drive the knife into the doll, the soul would never return. Mash then tries to break the knife, but as he fails he tries to stop it from going down, believing that Wahlberg can't continue this magic for very long and all he need is to outlast him. Wahlberg explains that power can be used to harm or protect and the schools principle is to foster the talents of mages to protect the weak and regulate the strong, and that he sees that Mash embody those qualities. He apologizes explaining he had no intention to cause any harm, but Mash tells him there is no need to apologize and explains that if he had to face him, he would knock him out with his fist. hearing that, Wahlberg welcomes Mash to the school.
