Darius sighed as he remembered the past he had hoped to bury. After focusing on the present, he looked at the Helmet of Hades and the 7 Stars Cloak. He was quite happy but he was also apprehensive because the moment of truth was approaching.
Darius was undergoing the first-day tour of Ethereal Forge Academy with the enigmatic Ja Mun Ro. He had first gone to the Martialist Headquarters and had signed up as a Martialist. Martialists had the best survivability and that greatly attracted Darius thus he signed up. Then on his way from the Martialist hall, he had received a recording left by his master, with a warning about an imminent threat on his life.
Darius learned many pieces of information in that message, but one was key. Only by obtaining an Army Creation Order could he see a method of survival. That required him to join the Rangers. To succeed he had to defeat a 3-star Captain under 25, which was impossible in his current state.
