After looking around in the school for a bit we returned home. It was almost 11 am when we entered.
My parents are also not back yet, so I went back to my room and change into some light clothes. It's in the middle of May, and in the northern area its summer time.
Despite Orna being close to the northern area, it's not on the edge of the world meaning it's in the top middle in the whole continent.
That's why, Areas have become the capital of humans.
-sigh
"So tiring," I said while sitting on my bed. In the past few days, this bed has been the most favorite place for me. Almost all of the time I stayed here either reading or doing something else.
It's not like I want to be a lazy person, it's because of my mother. Every time I wants to go out, she stopped me and force me to take a rest. To be frank, it's kind of annoying.
I also want to visit the so-called guild of ours. I am kinda curious about it.
-sigh
"Now that I think about it I am now 15, And I should have to attend an Academy of some short"
"But I don't know anything about academies," I said while rubbing my chin in a thinking manner.
Although I could search on the internet, there is only so little amount of information revealed. It's not their choice though, A couple of years ago an underground organization sends some assassins to kill some rare talents.
And because of that many students died.
After that, All of the academies decide to increase the security and tried to hide most of the information on them from leaking.
And the current time not even 40% of the information is known to the public.
"Should I go and asked Anna?" After saying I turn my gaze to the door, Getting out of it I quickly start to search for her.
--
After almost an hour later my parents came back.
After eating lunch, I was about to return to my room and spotted Anna in the hallway.
'I should ask her' I thought before approaching her.
"Hmm... hay... do you have a minute?"
She was about to enter her room and stopped when he heard my question and turn around to look at me.
"What is it?"
"... Mom said yesterday that we have to attend the academy, But the thing is..." I was about to finish my question but Anna cut me in the middle.
"That you don't know anything about it right?, I know Mom also asked me to tell you about it earlier"
Hearing her response I am lost for words. Blinking a couple of times I started scratching my head with a flustered face.
Seeing me getting flustered she narrowed her eyes and sighed.
-sigh
"You don't have to be like that, We are family, you can just have to ask," She said after a smile.
A smile formed on my face before we entered my room.
Extending the chair of my desk to her I sat on the bed
She also sat on it and started explaining
"Before we start, every year there is an entrance exam that happened in every academy, which decides who has the talent to enroll, and it's applied to all, either they are from some big family or commoners"
"Haa" She takes a deep breath before adding.
"There is a total of five years in the academy and a total of 10 semesters. Etch year, students from different areas come to the academies to learn and polished their fighting skills. Etch year there are tournaments between academies that decided their rankings, and there are also individual rankings for students. Which changes if you scored higher in your exams"
I nodded and keep on listening, but I soon got a question in my mind.
"It's also possible to increase your rank via Dual and other activities, There are also points which are given by the academy to the high-ranking students. Points can be exchanged for weapons, Art books, and many more. This is the information that was given by the academies to outsiders. Inside the academy, there are other rules which they kept to themselves because of safety reasons"
But after hearing her statement about academy some questions rose in my mind. I looked at her and asked.
"Then how will one take the Entrance exam?"
"It's simple, entrance exam is divided into two part's one theory and the other practical. Although practical is the main exam, the theory is there just to check a student's academics, almost nobody answers those" She said with a small smile.
"Oh I see... then that means I have to work hard and prepare for the physical test"
"Yes, although you were a training maniac in the past but you don't remember it right?" She said with a teasing tone.
"..."
"Training what?..." I asked while squinting my brows.
'...'
"Nothing..." She said before her gaze turn serious.
"We only have about a year worth of time before the entrance exam happened, so you have time. the exam will happen in December"
I just nodded slightly.
After chatting with her for about an hour she left the room, leaving me thinking.
hearing the door closing behind her I sigh and turn my head to the object on my desk. My laptop.
I Picked it up I opened it.
I use it to watch some videos to pass the time. It doesn't have that many use to me at least for now.
--
After a long hour of surfing the internet, it was already evening. After hearing my test result my family has decided to eat outside.
"Son get ready, we are about to leave in half an hour," My mother said from behind the door of my room.
"OK, wait"
I got up and get ready. I wore a blue T-shirt and black jeans. Picking up my phone I walked out from my room.
Reaching the living room, there was sitting my father, looking through some papers, I sat beside him and stared at the papers.
It was some kind of bio of some people. getting curious I asked.
"What is this?"
My father on the other hand got startled by my question and looked at me before smiling. He was probably too focused on looking through them that he don't even see me coming.
"Nothing much, It's just some reports of people, who are willing to join our guild"
"Oh"
'If mom sees you are still working at a time like this...' I mutter with a look of pity.
After that, I stayed silent and stared at my father looking through the paperwork.
A while later my mother walks in with Anna by her side. With a blue dress and her hair tied in a bun.
Anna on the other hand wore a white top with her hair tied with a ribbon making a ponytail.
Both of the women stared at Father then my mother's face twitched and a smile appeared on her face but her aura is saying otherwise. Her expression is like that of a devil.
Feeling her aura my father flinch a little and a wary smile appeared on his face. I too got a sudden chill for a moment.
"Honey let's go we are late," Mother said
My father left the work on the table and got up, like a loyal dog.
Watching my descending father I sigh inwardly.
'Poor man' I said sympathetically.
Leaving the house with our car we reach in front of a three-star restaurant.
The restaurant is like a mini skyscraper. Inside had to register then we are taken to an empty space on the second floor. The higher floor is for people of increased money and status.
After we are done eating we stopped at a conventional store, Mother had to buy some stuff so she left and got inside the store, leaving us in the car.
Although I want to go seeing how much I have eaten...
-sigh
After we reached home the first I do is run into my room.
After changing my clothes I fall on the bed and sleep like a log.
--
The following day, After I woke up I had my morning routine, like nature call and break first.
After that, all of us went to the guild. I asked my parent's about my training yesterday. And they agreed.
We left in our car and reach in front of a squire-looking building. radios of hundred meter etch direction.
Normally guild buildings are sized like that, and the bigger guilds like Obsidian or Diamond are even bigger.
Entering the building we are greeted with a lobby, With polished marble floor with concrete pillars and walls.
At the end of the lobby, there was a reception where a single young-looking lady is sitting. And the funny thing is all of us ignored her and walked to the elevator.
After the door opened we entered. Father presses the underground -6 button and the door soon close after.
All of the training facilities are on the underground floors and the main working areas are on the upper floors.
-6 floor is the lowest floor and the place where private training rooms reside.
After we reach the -6 floor the door of the elevator opens up revealing a long hallway with one-sided doors.
Etch one of the doors is away from at least 10 meters.
Reaching in front of a room Father told me the passcode and left with mother.
"If you need any help ask me I will be in the room beside yours"
Saying Anna also fell and entered the room beside me. After she left I looked at the lock.
Beep Beep Beep Beep
After entering a four-digit pass code the room door opened with a metallic sound.
Clang
