I am currently enrolled in the Battle Academy, which is considered the world's largest and most renowned academy for heroes. I was selected for Class A-1, which occupies Room A-1.
Class A is an important class at the Battle Academy, as it consists of the best first-year students. In fact, Class A-1 is just one of ten classes, from A-1 to A-10, that make up the first year.
Each class has an average of fifty students in their rooms. However, Class A-1 is seen as the most important and requested class at the academy due to the exceptional quality of the students who make it up. After all, it is in this class that the main characters will spend the next three years of their lives.
With a well-defined hierarchical system, each class is directed to a specific topic of learning and training, which makes the Battle Academy a world-renowned institution in hero training.
The Battle Academy is a hero training institution with several departments, each with its own specialization in training and skill development. These departments include the Department of Physical Combat, the Department of Magical Combat, the Department of Special Skills, among others.
Each department is responsible for developing the specific skills of the students, according to their personalities and powers.
Today, we will discover our department, as well as our ranking, which will give us power within this institution.
There are also our dormitories. I can say that the Academy's dormitories are truly fascinating.
Each class has its own exclusive building designed to accommodate all students in a completely safe and comfortable environment. But between us, it's notable that the larger the class, the better the dormitory. In the A-1 class, where I am currently enrolled, we are considered the best students in the Academy and, therefore, can enjoy incredible accommodations, with spacious and luxurious rooms.
The truth is that for students in the A-10 class, for example, which is the smallest class, I have heard that their dormitories are not as large and comfortable as ours. However, regardless of which class it is, the dormitories are designed to encourage integration among students and provide a conducive environment for the development of healthy relationships for the students.

Today is my first day at the Battle Academy, and I feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. A sensation that felt like a roller coaster invaded me as I looked at the majestic building that stood before me. It was huge and impressive, with a modern and futuristic architecture that seemed to come out of a science fiction work.
However, there was no time to admire the beauty of the place, as I was soon greeted by a group of enthusiastic and smiling students who took me inside the building. The interior was as impressive as the exterior, with endless corridors, advanced classrooms, and state-of-the-art technology laboratories.
I felt like I was entering a completely new and exciting world. As I walked through the corridors crowded with talking students, I realized that this would be the beginning of a journey full of challenges and possibilities for which I was more than ready.
Even before entering the classroom, the students inside seemed to feel my presence. A deafening silence took over the place, as if they knew that the arrival of someone important was about to happen. When I finally walked through the door, fear was palpable. My eyes scanned the entire room with a cold and distant gaze.
My steps were firm and decisive, and the atmosphere around me seemed to change, as if everyone knew that I was a Lothbrok. They knew that, despite being just a new student, I represented something much bigger and more powerful than any of them could imagine. My legacy was feared throughout the world.
I sat in the second-to-last desk in the classroom, next to the window. I watched the scenery outside while waiting for my classmates to arrive.
Suddenly, my attention changed when I saw Michael enter through the door. His messy brown hair danced under the light of the bulbs. His cold and sculpted beauty brought an air of mystery around him.
Next, Serena entered, with her little wolf sleeping on her shoulder. Her innocent appearance remained untouched, her white eyes revealing deep wisdom.
Then Andrew entered, with his black skin and curly hair dancing on his face. His sharp and striking gaze seemed to analyze everything around him.
Finally, Alice entered the room, with her blonde hair shining like gold and her icy blue eyes. Her posture was cold and elegant, as if she were the queen of the place.
The other students who were already in the room seemed uncomfortable around them, as if they felt a mixture of awe and fear.
The atmosphere in the room seemed to change with their arrival, as if the air became denser and heavier. I knew that the Battle Academy would be a place where I would have to live with the main characters of the story, but I did not imagine it would be so intense on the first day.
To my surprise, they decided to sit close to me! Look, I was curious about why they had chosen to sit next to me, especially being these guys, the protagonists.
After the admission test, everyone already knew that I had some special abilities, but, man... They seemed to want to discover everything, from the details of my hair to the shape of my shoe. I was a little surprised by their choice to sit with me, but okay, that's fine, I was also really curious to know why they were close to me.
Alice decided to sit in front of me, making it possible for me to see her angelic face in detail.
Michael, on the other hand, chose to sit next to me, making me feel his cold and calculated gaze in my direction.
Andrew decided to sit in the desk in front of Michael, seeming more interested in looking around than paying attention to class. Serena, always accompanied by her little wolf, chose to sit in a chair and desk behind me, seeming curious about my presence there.
The position of each of them seemed well thought out, as if they wanted to have control of the situation. I felt vulnerable, but also anxious to discover the reason why they were sitting near me.
Suddenly, Michael looked at me and said "Good morning." I was a bit confused, since he is the type who doesn't usually start a conversation with anyone. Even so, I replied back: "Good morning."
"Hey, Edward, what's up?" Andrew asked excitedly - "Remember me, man?" I was thinking: what the hell is going on here? Why so much small talk with me? Is it because I'm a Lothrbok? I guess so. Nonchalantly, I replied: "Hey, what's up... I remember you, yeah."
"That's great! By the way, this girl behind you is Serena Astrofiniz, John Astrofiniz's daughter." Andrew said as he introduced his new friend. "Nice to meet you! I've heard great things about the Lothbroks." Serena said shyly as she averted her gaze. When she finally met my eyes, she blushed slightly.
Okay, she's shy by nature, so I'll respond to her casually: "Nice to meet you, Serena Astrofiniz." She averted her gaze timidly to Alice in front of me as she spoke: "The girl in front of you is Alice Hensley! She's the daughter of the world's rank 1 hero! I hope you two get along."
Alice and I exchanged curious glances, as if trying to read each other. But she grew tired of the game and turned her eyes to Michael, seated next to her. In a indifferent tone, she asked: "When is our teacher going to arrive?" I felt a pang of disappointment for not having been able to unravel what was behind that distant expression. Sighing, I decided to ignore them for now.
Instead of Michael answering her, Andrew answered in his place, saying: "It's still a few minutes away...". Before he could finish his sentence, suddenly Kato jumped over him and said smiling at me: "Good morning Lothbrok!"
"HEY! Get off me!" Andrew said as he struggled not to fall off his chair.
Yeah, I forgot about this guy. Kato Miyamoto, with characteristics similar to Alice's, he's a genius of the current era, being part of the famous assassin family in this world.
The history of the Miyamoto family is comparable to that of the Lothbrok family. Both have existed for centuries and are present in every advance of humanity.
In the past, during the first war, the Miyamoto family went to war against the Lothbroks, but due to the extreme power of both sides, they tied without deciding a winner.
At the present moment, Kato, the genius of the Miyamoto family, was talking to me and I? I was talking to him too. "Good morning Kato."
"Good morning Edward, who are these people sitting near you?" Kato asked curiously. "They're Michael, Andrew, Serena, and Alice." I replied and asked: "Which department are you going to choose?"
"I'm really not sure, maybe I'll choose a department focused on precise and deadly arts. And you?"
"I'm not sure either, but maybe I'll go to the Department of Mana Control and Release," I replied with an indifferent tone as I watched the campus through the window.
"You want more Mana Control and Release? You're a greedy person, you know that?" he said in a sarcastic tone and sat down behind Michael.
The other students watched us talking with wide eyes. Never in their minds did they think that a Lothbrok would be chatting amiably with a Miyamoto.
The tension that could be felt before quickly turned into a friendly and peaceful atmosphere. While some students formed their own groups, others tried to socialize with us but were met with a cold stare from Alice, who told them to stay away.
The conversation continued for a few minutes until someone came through the door; it was our instructor who would be leading our class during our stay at the Academy.
She entered, drawing everyone's attention. Her hair was as white as snow, her eyes were as blue as the sky, and her face showed someone determined and cold. Her presence was dominant, with scars and a body fat percentage below 2%. She was strong, made to kill, and her name could be none other than that of someone renowned.
She looked at all the students professionally and said, "Good morning, my name is Ava Lothbrok, and I have been assigned to take care of you, the most valuable students of the first year. Know that from now on, you have taken the first step to becoming heroes."
