"Tie, check! Jacket, check! Uniform, check! Bag, check! Smile?"
The boy stared at the mirror and smiled, his eyes became soft cresents, his teeth white, a little blush became over his cheeks, he also had cute dimples, overall, his whole being was soft and comforting. Adding with his light brown fluffy hair, there isn't much difference from him and a golden-retriever dog.
"Hehe, check!"
"Eun-Woo~ come eat breakfast, you don't want to be late on the first day."
"Coming Pa~."
He quickly went down to the kitchen just in time to eat together with his fathers and little sister.
"I'll take you to school today son, so we can get there fast."
"Okay dad~."
His dad chuckled patting his back, "Don't eat too fast or you'll choke."
"Mm."
"You have been in such a good mood ever since you found out you were in the top ten, Eun-Woo."
His Pa said while feeding his little sister.
"Honey, anyone would be in a good mood if that happened to them."
"But this means Eun-Woo would probably be tasked with many useless things. And maybe he will push himself too hard."
"Don't worry Pa, I won't."
"Hear that? He won't."
"But what if someone will bully you."
"Noone will bully him."
"Dad, it's getting late! Let's go."
"Okay, okay, gotta kiss your Pa and sis first. Muwah(っ˘з(˘⌣˘ ), bye guys~"
‡‡‡‡‡‡
Eun-Woo looked at the mighty silver building that stood proudly behind the huge silver gates lined with vines of green and flowers.
He gulped, he can't wait to make new friends and have a joyful highschool life. He became excited and since there was still plenty of time until the opening ceremony, he just leisurely walked along the road to the venue.
A strong gust of wind blew, making the purple petals from the trees dance.
"Oh, so prett-"
He saw, standing beside the trees was a boy his age, black hair as dark as the night, it gleamed under the morning rays making you think there are stars living in them, skin as fair as can be, lips lush, pink like the roses he loved, his eyes like gems that shines in the treasure chest they are trapped in, there were little to no emotion contained in those eyes, it gave Eun-Woo shivers when those eyes focused on him.
He realised that he was staring, he shyly smiled and waved at him.
The black-haired boy looked shocked, then confused and tilted his head at him, it looked like he was in thought for a second then waved back at him.
Eun-Woo blushed. 'Eh? Eh? Hah?'
He covered his face, feeling the heat he was radiating, 'Ehh??? Wh-what...? Why am I blushing??!!!??'
The black-haired boy looked at him in confusion, he started walking towards him.
Eun-Woo panicked, 'Waaaaaaahhh.. why are you walking towards me?! Don't come!!!!'
"Umm.. excuse me, are you okay?" The black-haired boy looked at him worriedly.
"Oh- Oh, y-yeah I'm perfectly fine!"
"I see."
"..."
"....."
"So I'll be going now?"
"O-oh, yes, yes."
After the black-haired boy left, Eun-Woo smacked his forehead thinking, 'Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Aahhhhhh!!! Now he will think I'm weird! I also made a floppy first impression!! Aahhhhhh!! I can't blame myself!! He was so beautiful!!! That boy was really beautiful!!! Aahhhhh!! How embarassing!!'
Eun-Woo silently wished they would meet again so that he can clear up any sort of misunderstanding.
He gasped, 'Waaaaahhhhh!! I forgot to ask for his name!!! I'm such an idiot!!! ༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ༽'
† ‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡‡†
'That boy looked kinda cute.'
Taffeite thought, walking to the venue.
'Though his body was tall and quite muscular, his hair was fluffy, and his green eyes were like emeralds. He was cute.'
"I wonder if we can meet again."
The opening ceremony started smoothly, there was a long boring speech made by one of the teachers making some new students doze off.
'They won't be dozing off once the main character arrives.'
A teacher climbed the stage and took the microphone.
'Oh, there he is.'
Taffeite spotted the main character climbing the stage, he looked really nervous as he clutched a piece of paper that would change his life forever.
[Mika Sakura], the main character of this story. He had no abilities, so his parents threw him out not knowing that he had infinite mana in him. He then ended up in an orphanage where the principal of this school sponsors, the principal had a son and a daughter, but they both said they didn't want to have children, so the principal went to the orphanage and Mika immediately caught his attention. After some convincing, a sob story and some crocodile tears, the principal succesfully adopted Mika. The principal knew about his potential but didn't tell him yet, hoping he would find out on his own. In the novel, Mika had a great school life, with a lot of ups and downs, some sad character arcs, a bit of comedy, some fighting here and there, and he graduated with all his classmates, and a few years later, he became the next principal of the school resulting in a happy ending.
'I can't remember minor details of the story, but I knew I loved this novel.' Taffeite thought as he smiled at Mika who was shivering from all the attention.
The teacher didn't help and said gleefully, "This is Mika Sakura, the grandson of the principal!"
Some teachers' mouths gaped open while students started muttering, "Ohhh.. so does that mean he's really powerful and strong?"
"That's only natural since he's the principal's grandson."
"I wonder what his abilities are."
"Maybe his abilities are really powerful, like one of the four elements."
"Hush! He's about to say something!"
'He's gonna chant a spell that would release one's aura then scare everyone because he has a very powerful aura.'
{Quick class!}
Question: What is an Aura?
Answer: An aura is something a person releases to make other people aware of their rank and how much mana they have! When this was first found out, many bad people used them to bully innocent citizens! So the government and many powerful people sealed the use of one's aura at free will! So people now need to use a spell to release it!
{End of the first quick class!! See you next time!!}
'Mika was not yet taught about this spell because he was kicked out when he was just four years old so he might be really scared and confused as to why his adoptive grand-father gave him a note with only one word written on it.'
Taffeite watched Mika, preparing himself for what was to come and unconsciously gripped the arms of his seat whilst shaking.
Mika was now in front of the microphone, shivering from all the anxiety. "Uhh- Umm- «Evelanche»?"
All the people in the venue including Taffeite gripped their seats hard as a strong and cold aura swept over them in invisible waves.
"Huff.. huff.. haa.. haa.."
It was all over in just seconds, sweat dripped down Taffeite's temples as he tried to catch his breath. He gripped his chest trying to calm his loudly beating heart.
'If I hadn't known better, I would have jumped from my seat and charged him head-on for what he did since I feel threatened because we are the same rank.'
'.....'
'Why does that sound so fammiliar? I think I forgot about something.'
BOOM!!
Dust and debris flew all around the venue as everyone stared shock at a particular student.
'Ah, I forgot about this.'
Since it has been a long time, of course, one would forget some important and unimportant details in a novel.
'This was the time Mika sparred with his Frienemy and who he's always shipped with.'
As the dust slowly settled, gleaming baby blue hair was swaying slowly from the wind in the venue. He stood high and mighty upon all the pebbles and boulders of the broken stage. He held a beautiful and sharp sword inches from Mika's neck as they met eyes, Mika's was full of fear and confusion, while his blue orbs held none, it only held anger in them.
'Aster Fortaflight, he likes attention and glory, he likes it when other people fear him. So it's explainable why he's angry with Mika right now.'
"Student Fortaflight!! put down your sword right now!!"
A teacher shouted at him while just standing their, watching the show just like every other teachers.
'They want to see them fight.'
'This is an expected reaction from this school, if it was any other school, they would have stopped the fight before it even happened. They don't care if you lose an arm or leg since a lot of A-ranked and even an S-rank healers reside here, they believe that giving a student experience will help them grow rather than letting use AI simulations and making them sit and learn boring long classes of useless things. That's why I chose this school, firstly I don't have any family here, and secondly for their teaching style.'
'Right now the teachers are wondering if someone will also join the fight.'
Aster did not lower his sword, Mika did shiver, but there was no panic in his eyes. He knew that this person would not kill him. That was also a special thing about Mika, he can tell if someone has evil intentions towards him or not.
'Maybe that's why they ship them?'
Taffeite watched with the crowd as Mika chanted a few newly learned spells to protect himself from Aster, Aster swung his sword with ease and power towards Mika.
Aster may seem like he has the upper hands here, but a normal person wouldb't be able to chant that many spells at a time, so he's cautious of Mika and is holding back to protect himself just in case Mika will retaliate strongly.
The spar lasted a few minutes, and people watched in awe as the two boys looked like they were dancing.
Clap!!
A teacher clapped and got everyone's attention.
"Okay, okay, that's enough~ get to classes everyone, including Mika Sakura and Aster Fortaflight."
The students looked at each other and slowly went out of the venue heading to their classes.
Aster and Mika stopped and glanced at each other before bowing in apology to the teachers.
Taffeite glanced back at them before heading towards the exit.
Out in the hallway, Taffeite opened the paper that contained his schedule and which class he was in.
'Hmm... class XX. Why does this sound so familliar? Which class was the mc in again? What if we ended up in the same class? Hmm... I wonder how that would go. I mean, it can be fun too.'
He finally arrived at Class XX and opened the door, 'Ah, speak of the devil?' he saw Mika sitting in the middle row of the seats.
'Huh, butterfly effect?'
