'Scan'
[Name: Dice of Summoning
Type: Relic
It Summons a random magical beast when rolled. The level of the beast depends on the value rolled. The beast can be tamed.]
"It doesn't give much information, does it? No harm in trying." he took the dice and threw it on the table. As it touches the table, it starts to glow.
[6] the dice landed on six. The highest value is possible.
"Nice!" Excited by the result, he let out.
The dice glowed brighter and started to change shape. It slowly forms a puppy the size of his palm. A few seconds later, it died down, revealing a puppy with silver-white fur.
"Arf.Arf.." The puppy barked while wagging its tail. Zane picked him up and used scan.

"The name is empty. Does it appear if I give it one?" He said to himself and thought for a while.
"Nova. I'll call you Nova."
"Arf.Arf.." As if it liked the name it barked.
[Name: Nova

"It changed! Now, what's this 'Alpha' skill" He exclaimed and focused on [Alpha].
[Alpha:
Summons a pack of wolves as the leader of the pack.
Type: locked (reason: age)]
"A beast that summons other beasts. Is this the result of getting a six? Too bad it's locked." He muttered and looked at Nova.
"You're small aren't you?" He said while patting him on the head. He then put him on his head.
"Now, the pocket watch." He took the last item in the box - the pocket watch.
"Scan."
[Name: Pocket Watch
Type: ornaments
A device that tells time. Made to be carried in a pocket.]
"The hell?" Zane was disappointed by the outcome. He had thought it was something amazing. Turns out it's just a normal watch.
"It does look good though. I'll keep it." The watch case and chains are made of platinum, making it majestic. He hooked the chain on his pants and put the watch into his left pocket.
"Now, let's get you something to eat." Zane lifted Nova from his head and headed towards the kitchen.
"What do you eat anyway? You're a wolf right or are magical beasts different. "
[Silver Wolf:
A type of magical beast or monster that resembles a wolf. Silver wolves are said to be the strongest of their kind and hard to come by. These species can be tamed.]
"Tame?" Zan searched online [tame]
[Beast Taming:
When a magical beast is given a name and accepts it, the Beast is tamed and loyal only to their 'Master' or Tamer.]
He then searched [Tamed Beast food]
[Unlike a summoning beast, a tamed beast needs food. Their diets are usually the same as their non-magical species. E.g. a bird type beast eats worms, nuts…..]
"I see. Now, what do wolves eat? I'll just bring you to a pet shop. There's one on campus."
Zane put on a jacket found in the closet and went to the pet shop.
In the pet shop,
"Are there any food for wolves?" Zane asked the cashier.
"It's in aisle 7" the cashier pointed.
In aisle 7, Zane walked towards the pet food section. Nova peaked out of his collar.
"Which one do you want, boy?"
Nova looked around for a while and jumped out. He walked towards a pack called 'Wolfie'.
"You want this?"
"Arf.."
Zane then looked at the price - 15 000p.
"Right. Money. Do I have that?" Since the cafeteria has free meals, Zane didn't think of money before. He checked his watch and found it - balance.
[Balance: 50 000 points
Transaction History
Allowance: (+) 50 000p]
"I guess I have money." He then bought some toys and a bowl. It comes down to 20 000p.
"How much is 1 point anyways?" Although he didn't know, he still used it.
Back in his dorm, he fed Nova and went to his room. He turned on his watch and opened the link [Weapon Selection] sent by his teacher. It was the form his teacher reminded the class to fill.
He clicked on it. Three options popped up:
[Primary] [Secondary] [Specialised]
Description:
[Primary Weapon: The main weapon used by the student. Allows in all exams and activities.
Secondary Weapon: An optional weapon. Are not able to be used in some exams and activities.
Specialised Weapon: Personal weapon that the student bought. Usually not allowed in exams or activities.]
Zane clicked on [Primary] and a list of selections popped up.
[>Sword
>Bow
>Spear
>Firearm
>Others]
"Firearms." His eyes lit up when he saw those words. He clicked on it and another list of options:
[>Handgun
>Shotgun
>Rifle
>Machine Gun
>Submachine gun
>Sniper rifle]
"Sniper rifle. " He chose it and clicked next. It brought him to [Secondary]
He went to [Firearm] and chose a handgun. For [Specialised] he chose none and it brought him to the final page.
[Note: After confirmation, you will have to pay a fee to change your [Primary] and [Secondary] weapon.
Confirm?]
He clicked it.
After that, he went to have dinner at the cafeteria and went to bed.
At the teacher's office,
"Mr Holt, I think there's a problem." A female teacher asked Mr Holt who was sitting beside her.
"What is it?" He asked.
"I'm in charge of distributing the new recruits' weapons this year and there's something strange. Someone from your class chose a Sniper Rifle as their main weapon."
"Let me see. Zane Felix? Send him a message to confirm. Maybe he clicked the wrong one."
"Ok"
In Zane's dorm,
Zane received a message from the academy confirming his choice of weapon. Of course, he confirmed and thought nothing of it.
The next morning in class.
"Good morning. Today I'll be talking about the rank system...."
Kray has a ranking system. The higher your rank the more benefits you'll get. For example, your monthly allowance:
1-10: 1 600 000p
11-25: 800 000p
26-100: 400 000p
101-200: 2 000p
201-500: 100 000p
500+: 50 000p
Note: the cheapest meal cost 500 points
Or your dorm: the top 10 have a whole floor to themselves.
Recruits can increase their ranks in Midterms, Finals and duels.
The Midterms and Finals consist of a written test(20%) and a practical test(80%). The written test is like every other test. The practical test consists of 2 parts. The first part is a tournament battle while the second part changes yearly.
Finally, duels. It's quite simple. Everyone can initiate a duel but only by winning against some of higher rank can increase your rank.
"That's all. I know some of you are eager to increase your ranks but please do so moderately." The teacher finished explaining.
'He didn't say not to.' Zane though.
"Now we're going to the training ground. You will receive your weapons there."
