"Oh... hello!" Aiden stood up, quite elated, and then stretched as if he had just woken up. I couldn't move a muscle, I just stared at him, and finally, I forcefully gulped. "A- Aiden?" I can feel the chaotic energy coming from him, his expression tells me everything, but... How... can I accept this? Aiden narrowed his eyes and looked into mine. His devilish smile didn't drop a bit, he was enjoying himself. I thought of his determined expression just a few days ago, yelling because he…-

It was about ten minutes before I reached the destination of the train. And now, after those ten minutes, there was a lush green plain in front of me. I was outside the city. "Do you see three different kinds of trees lined up in a perfect equilateral shape? The distance between the trees must be around four meters." I spoke without looking back. My answer came only a few seconds later. "There is one on our right front diagonal, about seven hundred meters ahead, sir." "Hmm, then we're going.…

I quickly turned to the creatures that were the real danger and surveyed the situation there. Celine and Julian are fighting against the scaly mammoth at the same time. The archer, whose name is Alice, and Lucia, who is normally a swordswoman but has a flame attribute, are taking care of the red-feathered bird, while Adrian is fighting the monkey alone. I first looked at Celine and Julian and observed their movements, and then I saw Julian throwing ice spears he had formed in the air at the mammoth.…

"Hahaha! Look at his face! I told you this would be easy!" They made fun of me, and everything that happened made me collapse even more, making me tremble, but there was still hope in me. I looked at Aiden, waiting for an explanation. He turned his gaze to the sky as if he didn't give a single damn about me. There was a robotic, spherical, eye-like device floating in the air. It was one of the cameras used by academy officials to monitor the preliminary, and there were several of them in the…

"Line up starting from class A!" In just a few seconds we lined up as we were told. The atmosphere was one of absolute dominance. "Now, all of you listen to me carefully!" The speaker was someone who stood out even among the famous professors lined up in front of us. His brown eyes were quite ordinary, but his long dark green hair gave him a strange air. Nearly two meters tall, he was a professor of mana theorem, one of the academy's candidates for the next rector. He had such an air that he…

I looked again at the name of the building in front of me. I knew I would have to come here again, but I didn't think it would be this fast. With a deep sigh, I entered the place with the sign 'Riala Bar'. Inside it was the same as always. Drunks, people playing cards, people hanging out, and so on... Of course, I was here for a different purpose. Ignoring them all, I approached the bartender and settled into the long-legged chair. "What would you like?" He wasn't the same guy as last time,…

"The boss is waiting for you." A boy with long black hair and brown eyes stepped back, opening the door for us. So we took our first step inside and strangely enough I saw that the room was much bigger than the normal ones. Ah... These maniacs had removed the walls with the help of an earth elementalist... That way, even if someone reports damage to academy property, they can say they fixed it and only get a tiny 'warning'. "Julian! You haven't been around much lately and I was beginning to…

~cling! The sound of metal on metal echoed in the training room, and I took a quick step back. Sweat dripped down my forehead, but I didn't attempt to wipe it off because to do so would have given my opponent an advantage. "Are you sure you've only been learning to use a sword for a month?" Julian spoke with his eyebrows raised. "Yes..." We've been having a friendly duel for about fifteen minutes. And I haven't been able to give him a single scratch... He hasn't been able to give me one…

I woke up as usual, had breakfast, put on my uniform, and left my room. I walked into my classroom, no different from the previous days. And again, as always, I was surrounded by people I wasn't even sure who they were. "Hey, Celine! We're going to karaoke tonight, wanna come?" One of the girls spoke with a smile on her face. So I showed her a slight smile too. "Sorry, I have plans tonight." The girl's smile slowly faded. She definitely looked upset but I could see right through her, she was…

I turned back to Lucia. Then, I saw her smiling face. Even if only for a moment, her beauty caught me. The whole world seemed to disappear, except for her. My focus shifted completely to her and everything else faded from my sight. Damn charm... it must have gone up to S- for sure. "Lucia Quie, nice to meet you." Her lips curved upwards in a smile, the brightness of her red eyes, her beautiful face... Everything about her was so gorgeous. "Aiden Tenebra, nice to meet you too." Without…
