Now I am here becoming pretty gloomy as I finished the test. For sure the results would be disappointing like that's gonna be it.
I was already disappointed though. Like what should I expect for a place like this and for a loser like me.
Slurps
I'm afraid that I would complain for the test result that i didn't even study for.
I was just eating a cup noodle for an instant meal. It was a cheap one so I might as well eat it. Although I almost eat these every day in the past society.
My health should be monitored and needs to be taken care of. Quite ironic that I said this while was I eating an unhealthy instant meal.
"Whoa, watch out!!"
Crashing noises were speaking out loud in this wide cafeteria creating a loud bang after that.
One student rushed out towards the café with an extraordinary speed ignoring other students that surrounds him.
Because of how fast he was, the surroundings were slightly blown as the air was passing by.
It made a ruckus in this cafeteria.
There are some damaged properties this guy should face the consequences.
Well, he was once a young outlaw, I assume this is somewhat not surprising.
I am not attached into that so I shouldn't mind about it.
There are so many people here, the student count goes higher.
I walked my way out of the cafeteria as I finished my low-grade meal.
The classroom's atmosphere must've been grim as it was it the first day. Perhaps it was just my impression and how I view them.
I almost forgot to mention this, out of nowhere.
After the opening ceremony and the written tests. the results will come out today. Somehow, I didn't feel excited nor anxious about this.
There's something wrong within me.
Ughhh..
Where am I going again?
Classroom isn't good since I don't have any friends to talk to. I am living a boring school life.
There's a gaming café in this campus but it wasn't open. That was the only place I would love to go as I was here in this place.
Now then, where should I go?
I cannot go to other cafés because it would make me out of the place. Besides, I'm not too good at sweets.
Now what should I do. Should I just lie down on to the ground like a dead dog found in the streets?
Oh no. way too dark.
Am I getting cancelled by the dog lovers? I hope not.
Sighs.
I sat on a bench outside and I was inhaling some fresh air. I averted my eyes and felt the breeze went by.
A relaxing feeling went through my body allowing myself to chill myself and relieve my stress.
And so.
I noticed there was someone here.
There were no footsteps nor chattering sounds no smell. I don't know why but I noticed someone going towards me.
The senses I have in online games was activated in reality.
What kind of person who applies games in reality? What an idiot I am.
I opened my eyes; my cobalt blue eyes went sharp and leaned slightly.
"Oh, you noticed me?" a tall guy with silver hair said to me
"....."
A tall guy in a white suit with a long silver hair suddenly approached to me. With a calm expression or I should I say, I sensed a glimpse of amusement in his face.
This place is in the upper floor of the building beside the cafeteria. I just discovered this place where there were few people who goes here.
I managed to waste small time to navigate this academy. Since no one was giving me a tour. I was able to know some spots that's great to be alone.
My impression towards the person behind me was a senior in this academy.
But the question is, why is he here?
"What a nice spot to stay"
"hmmmmm"
"you're a freshman, right? How's the life being in here"
Oh, we start from here. I guess I didn't see anything bad in here ah.
"Doing Good yet Bad"
"Is that so"
"yeah"
"You don't have any intention to go back to your classroom?" he asked me again
"I don't but I'll go back if I have to" I replied with obvious feedback.
"Heh, makes sense. That bench seems to be wide. Can I sit there?"
I don't know what he was going to do nor his intentions. But if it means no harm then I guess I have to go along the flow. Refusing would look like I'm a cold person towards the others.
"Sure, I don't mind but no homo"
"hehehe, you don't have to say that" he replied
My cobalt blue eyes and his crimson eyes went in contact for a bit.
I averted my eyes again and took a glance at him for a few seconds. Then I noticed his long silver hair like a woman, his crimson eyes and his pale skin that gives me an impression of him like a vampire.
Comparing his hair to mine, his hair is much brighter and saturated. It's obvious that his hair is silver while mine is ashen, a borderline of white and grey.
Never mind with that.
"of course, I won't but I said it in advance"
He smirks and looked up above the sky. Feeling the air together with him.
It may be felt weird for me but I guess there's nothing wrong. I haven't sensed anything bad on the mean time. Maybe I was to overly conscious for a small thing like this.
My classmates must have been gone into another building where training session lies.
While this is a place where extraordinary abilities existed, I still haven't drawn out mine yet and I don't even know what is it.
I sensed some abilities sneaking towards the written test on the other day. It may be late if I mention this today but it is something that I cannot miss.
As I remember there, one of my classmates was caught red handed by sir Chris by using abilities to cheat.
I was focusing on my sheet so I wasn't able to describe the details. All I know is that my teacher has some sharp senses.
After witnessing some abilities shown makes me shiver. Perhaps I'm facing one soon, my funeral is guaranteed.
"ouch"
I opened my eyes and looked at my foot. There's a bite mark and it stings in the sole location. I assume it's a bug or some sort of an insect. It's something shouldn't be worried about.
But still, I find it unusual. I feel like I missed something.
"what's up?" he leaned towards me
"I don't know, it's just an insect I guess."
"Is that so"
"Yeah yeah"
My foot got bitten out of nowhere ah. Not to mention, it's inside my shoes. i can't afford removing but it sure stings a bit.
"I guess, I'm going to the training area."
"There are lots of first year students in there, you should participate too. You'll gonna lose your CS"
"Yeah, I would" I replied
"Good luck!" he smiled lightly
After Dash went away, the guy who remained still onto that place was making a hard expression. A crimson shadow under his feet slowly returned back to the owner and then was dissolved in an instant.
As he was sitting on the bench, he suddenly licked his sharp tooth like he was craving for something.
"Finally, some good stuff."
"Today is such a great day ahh"
"To think that there are people who meet my needs are staying here. I'll wait for one"
A pure red blood dripped from his mouth and his tongue cleaned up his lips as if he just drank something.
......
......
......
A clanking sound of where there are bunch of students gathering around. Picking something that's useful for them.
there are lots of things displayed in there. Majority are weapons, hybrid weapons from medieval age to modern times.
Here I am in the near entrance spacing out for I don't know what should I do otherwise I would end up picking nothing.
For a gamer like me, it was expected that I am not really good at handling weapons in real life rather than in online video games.
Who knows, I may be good at this.
As there were countless of weapons and equipment displayed. My expression went stiff that I couldn't be able to express what I wanted. i looked there and there to check if I might find something interesting.
Axe, daggers, Japanese swords, spears, bows, etc. I couldn't find a single one.
If I find a keyboard here, it would be my instant pick since I was once a keyboard warrior.
I don't know what are the next process after picking a weapon but for sure it would be another pain in the ass.
Whatsoever.
Some of the students already picked up and chose their main while I was stuck in here having nothing. For a simple thing to do yet it takes a long time for me to make it done.
I might as well go to the modern items section.
M14-EBR, M4, Dessert Eagle, Glock… Assault rifles, Pistols, SMG, Shotguns Hm…. These are the weapons used for school shooting in America.
Ohh way too dark again. Just like my future.
Too heavy.
I tried holding one of the firearms but it seems not good with me. I could just find something smaller perhaps I would go back and get a dagger.
Trips
"uaghhh"
"The heck!!"
A black bar blocked my footstep resulting my butt on the ground.
It was not that long to become someone's weapon.
it doesn't look like one but why is it here?
I picked it up and it was quite heavy. Suddenly it glows with my fingerprint on so I dropped it instantly.
What is that thing? I don't remember that some objects like this existed.
There's a small circular loop of wire above so I picked it up again by holding the thin wire. Not really a wire but it looks like a chain from a necklace or a key chain.
It really is a key chain.
I have doubts with this but my instincts make me wanted to use this and proceed onto the next task.
Some of my schoolmates were staring at me for holding a weird object. But forget all of that, I'm a bit of curious about this at the moment it glowed with my finger print on.
A Female instructor appeared out of everyone's line of sight and gave a word.
"Starting from introduction, I am Elena Whitlock. Encharged of this weaponry
Students, the weapons you have chosen will be your academic driver. Make sure have a correct decision of choosing one.
It's fine if you can't afford to rely on weapons. It's one's choice anyway.
Unless you're strong enough then it wouldn't be a problem"
The students were murmuring and the silence went by for a moment.
"That is all"
While I was listening to what the instructor said. I observed my surroundings as usual. I've did the same thing as what I've done when going inside the classroom.
"I guess weapons aren't necessary"
"Gosh, let me take a break"
"Ren Crimson is so cool!!"
"My ability doesn't need equipment. I guess I won't"
Random thoughts went through my ears that I almost lost sense of myself. Since I was bothered for nothing, all I have to do is just proceed.
But how?
[clicks]
A blonde woman in front of me was testing a gun, she pulled the trigger but it wasn't loaded. Her pony tail hairstyle is suited for her weapon.
Although it is not really relevant but at least it's not a negative one.
[clicks]
She aimed the weapon at me. While I looked at her with a stiff expression, the usual expression of mine.
"Oh, I like this"
"...."
"This gun fits me so well"
She looked at the weapon with slight enthusiasm and ignored me. Damn, they are all so scary. It almost got me.
My face was stiff as usual but deep inside it is much worse. I don't know why but I want to kill myself.
Oh no, it was kind of way dangerous.
I went to a different section for validating this weird object. but sadly, the instructor said that everything you see in there can be used and clearly ignored me when I asked something.
Good thing that I wasn't yelled at.
In a gathering within the training center after choosing the weapons has been concluded, they all proceeded and went to test it all out.
Not in some sort of dummy targets to test with, not a shooting range nor robots to begin with but rather a fellow student in this outrageous academy.
And this is what they call a mock battle.
Even though it's a mock battle it still affects the criteria for you as a student in this academy.
Mock battle ahh. Most these people are outlaws and basically, they are somewhat scary obviously. I mean there are lots of strong people here. If I were to face one, then...….
I would be the first to fall then it would be my absolute humiliation.
My ability hasn't known yet, even me the operator, doesn't have any clue what is it.
How can a computer geek become good at physical combats?
Damn, I think too much.
Mock battles.
The rules are simple.
Head-to-head combat whoever stands up till the end wins. Killing isn't allowed for mock battles but they excuse major injuries or fatality.
Although it may be harsh for a rule. The institution would take precaution of keeping the students alive for a certain reason.
Since there would be mock battles going on, it is likely that my turn in combat will be delayed.
And yes, good news for me.
A battle between two students were now in heat within that field. Those students are my classmates, as I remember in their introductions. I can recognize that it was my classmates fighting.
There some bunch of freshmen watching while the two of the instructors were taking the role as a referee.
The man with a scythe was advancing an attack and was firmly slashing his opponent.
this is one of the guys who stared daggers at me at the moment I went inside of the classroom.
He has a generic Asian black hair and brown eyes. He has some sort of vertical scar in his neck up unto his chin.
With his scythe going along with how he looks, he gave me an impression of him being a low budget grim reaper.
His name is, I don't know.
Hmmm, as for the opponent. She is a woman, a red-haired archer, using her bow to shoot out her opponent as that guy was moving to reach her out.
Her name is some random hoe, one of the students that was able to get along with her classmates.
As for now, where mock battles were settled it was determined that she would intend to win this for her academic benefits.
Now that the two were facing each other, the attacks from both sides went off with a collided metal.
And so, the first mock battle has begun.
