I cleared the bushes in front of me and made space for myself as I moved forward. The forest was pretty dense, hence it was harder to move around if you weren't being careful. Half an hour had passed since the practical exam began and if I had to guess the current situation, I'll say that by now all the students were scattered evenly on the island. My judgment was based on two factors. First, this island was too big thus far, making the chances of running into other students fairly low. So if you aren't…

I woke up the next day a little earlier than usual, specifically because I didn't want to be late. I followed my daily routines, dressed up in the academy uniform, and left my dorm room. On my way, I stopped at the cafeteria to grab a quick breakfast and then headed over to the Mains. Entering the class I saw that most of the students had already arrived and only a handful of seats were empty even though a whole fifteen minutes were remaining before the start of the exam. I guess everyone was more…

After that, the five of them went into a discussion about how they would corner and surround him. They went through several different ways which could work, such as stealing his hidden task item if he acquired it and then making him follow them. Or giving him a chance to steal their item if they found one. In the end, they settled on three different ways and decided to use the one that will fit the situation. "You asked me if I was into this, but are you sure you want to do this? I mean, I don't want you…

In the corner of the hall there was a small counter where the forms were to be signed, the teachers present there led the students to the counter one by one and the forms were signed by those who wanted to give the exam. And it might seem strange to you but the majority of the students decided to take the exam despite the fact that they could lose their lives in the process. However, it was not even that strange if you looked at it from the perspective of this world. Here all the students were sons and…

All of the students were gathered inside the halls and the teachers had assembled them into rows. And by all students, here I mean all the students from the four classes in the first year, not all of the academy. Mr. Halls stood before the mic which functions via magic, and there was a small magic circle glowing at the top of it. He tapped the circle to check if it was working, and at the same time a buzzing noise was heard all across the hall. When he seemed satisfied, he held the mic stand with one…

Req's story was interesting, and the history it told about this world was a bit different from what they had written down in the books. So to research a bit more on this, the next day I went to the library after the classes were done. It took me a while to search for a book that told an actual history and was not a mess of many theories on 'what would have happened' by multiple authors. I also came to understand that either the people here were not so concerned about history or it had been altered…

The destruction of the Askington kingdom did help me achieve my ultimate goal, which was to stop this never-ending war. After the country was set into ruins, the event caught the attention of the whole world along with all the kings. I was declared the most dangerous person at that time, a high threat level. I still remember the name I was given by the folk: the destroyer. Since I was now a greater threat who endangered the survival of humanity, the kings finally decided to stop fighting amongst…

Reshi and I were walking through a tunnel and headed for the mouth of the cave. It was finally time for me to go, and that was also the reason why I'd been quiet for a while now. I've spared you a lot of details you probably won't be able to relate to, but during these five years, I've come to know a lot about Reshi. To explain it in short, he was a simple-minded person who wanted to avoid trouble, but he was of good heart. And I'd grown attached to this place too so leaving everything like this thrilled…
-
It was finally the day Reshi had judged me worthy of wielding the Requiem sword, and I'd to say I was as nervous as I was when I first found myself in this cave. Five years had passed since, and I was nineteen years old now, but not much had changed. The flame of vengeance I had burning inside me had not extinguished or faded, it was still burning as bright as it ever was, or maybe even more than before. I woke up the first thing in the morning, washed in the pond, and after changing into the only other…

I woke up the next day, today was when my training would start. I went to the pond and washed my face and hands. The weakness in my body had mostly gone away, and I was feeling a lot better. When I came back Reshi was there with a bowl of stew in his hands, he passed it over to me and I ate it quietly. After I was done, he got up and led me to the klauth room where the skeleton was kept. As we took steps forward, the nervousness inside me grew. This was the first time I was going to do this type of…
