I could use this class to further my information about this world. I know that the Twelve Star mages and The Seven Overlords are important to its history.
We stand in front of the door. As we slowly open it. We were greeted by a bunch of eyes, the eyes of the students who stood there waiting. Checking at everyone who walked in. The first thing I noticed was this girl who had pointed ears, long beautiful light green hair, with a piece of it being a front piece of her hair being a light purple, with green eyes to match her hair. "Is she an elf" I began to think.
I realized I was staring at her for too long and took a glance as we made eye contact. She quickly shifted her gaze away from mine.
BUDUMP
"Was my heartbeat?" I thought to myself.
"Hmm, Vale you okay?" Eriko asks as she tilts her head and looks at me.
"Oh n-nothing I was just amazed by this room" That was half and lie as I was I was surprised by the setup of this room it was all white as if nothing was there—a giant room filled with no chairs, no windows, just pure white.
"Are we in the right room?" Eriko asks.
"It's so .. empty," Ezekiel says.
"Yes, this is it. This is the professor's ability" Faith says.
"Is it professor or teacher?" Ezekiel asked.
"It's the same thing either way," Faith says.
DING DONG DING DONG
WHOOSH
"Welcome!" a loud enthusiastic voice says.
POP
A man dressed in a very vibrant multicolor shirt appears out of thin air.
"What the hell?" Ezekiel says.
"I am your history professor Randall Deximer" a middle-aged man who wore a beard, curly messy hair, a multi-color button-up shirt, white pants that had paint splatters on them, a paintbrush, and big circle glasses.
CLAP CLAP a slow but awkward clap from the class.
I looked around the class everyone didn't know what to do. The girl I saw earlier had her hands clamped together waiting patiently to what to do next.
"Ohh cmon everyone where's your ENERGY"
As he pulls out a paintbrush.
WHOP
"Let us begin," Randall says.
He swings his paintbrush and paints the floors and ceilings as if they were a canvas. They were painted with black ink with speckles of white across when I looked at it closely it was the universe. With us being in the center of it. It was as if we were there.
"In the beginning, there were the stars. Stars were then made into planets, planets create life, and so on. Life on Earth The human race thought they were the only beings that ruled." Images of the planet Earth with depictions of humans living in kingdoms and kings and rulers as if they are being told in a storybook.
"Humans developed a world with their wealth, wars, death, and famine. Amongst the humans, there was also greed and pure evil. A select few mages sought nothing more than power and complete control. Wrath, Envy, Lust, Greed, Sloth, Pride, and Gluttony were filled within these humans. Soon after demons rose from below attacking all of humanity. Seven Demon Lords of hell rose from the depths of hell the lords of hell that represented the sins of humanity"
Wrath
Envy
Lust
Greed
Sloth
Pride
Gluttony
The images shown were a fire battlefield showing 7 demonic silhouettes decimating the area around them. "Demons?" I said softly to myself. "Valerus you didn't know about them?" Ezekiel whispers. "No I only knew of the Twelve Stars and Overlords," I said to Ezekiel.
Randall continues to speak as he swings his paintbrush around creating another scene "Otherworldly begins that commanded great power and connected to their deadly sins. Wrecking havoc, destroying cities, and splitting the continents. However, with all hope lost humanity had Seven empowering mages that could stand against these foes the Overlords"
The images show Seven mages being followed by a light glow amongst the humans.
Overlord of Weapons
Overlord of Curses
Overlord of Time
Overlord of Death
Overlord of Understanding
Overlord of Illusion
Overlord of Love
"The two sides wage war with one another. With their, power equaling one another and both being perfect counters their encounters did more harm than good. Many innocent lives were lost were spent battling this war. As a last resort humans looked towards the heavens for their blessings. The stars began to shine as Twelve mages were bestowed Twelve blessings

These Twelve Star mages ultimately changed the tide of the war between the humans and the demons. Together they were able to seal the demons away with the combined efforts of the Overlords and Twelve Star mages the 7 Demon Lords were sent away along with their god He pronounced that they would return one day. "That's the reason why," I thought.
"As time passed the Twelve Star Mages made a pact to create a better new world hence the creation of 4 regions. Aiz in the south, in the east Zellar, North in cold mountains of Falos and lastly in the west region Boundera the scorched land.
As for the Overlords, they taught mages their techniques and ways. "So Marko was a student of the Overlord of Weapons. That's what that bastard Deadman meant by getting taught by someone. He must've been studied under the Overlord of Death" I thought to myself as I continued to listen.
However, Boundera wasn't always like that it was a friction and separation of the 7 Overlords that caused it to be like that. The Battle of the Overlords. Overlord of Curses and Overlord of Death thought the humans were mere reflections of what they were fighting the wars for. They thought if the world began a new with a new order it'll be all for change. The Overlords fought one another in a war they pitted against one another leaving the beautiful grasslands to a scorched desert" Randall flicks his brush as it shows a beautiful land with grass and life turned to a scorched fire desert.
"Ceaser didn't miss a beat telling us about this" Ezekiel remarks.
"He's the most intelligent amongst the five of us," Faith says.
"After The Battle of the Overlords. Their locations are unknown. They went into hiding or they are just living normal lives amongst us. There have been rumors that The Overlord of Death wonders the lands of Falos hence the reason the weather is so different from the south."
"Falos, that's where we will be going after the Magus Exam correct?" Eriko asks.
"Correct" Faith responds. "Just giving you three a heads up the Magus Exam is tough. Myself, Luna, and Axel fought hard to pass it."
"What happened-" Eriko gets cut off.
VRMM
The room returns to a white room.
"Ah chatting while am in the middle of an important history lesson?" Randall asks.
STEP STEP STEP STEP
"Oh, my assistant Ms.Alexander please try to refrain yourself from talking. You should know by now"
"Yes sir sorry about that " Faith responds as she fixes her hat.
"Aaaand you two" Randall points at Eriko and Ezekiel "Virgo and Leo it is very important that you pay attention, especially since this regards your purpose."
"Alright," Eriko and Ezekiel respond.
"If you didn't know Twelve Stars are replaced once one dies or they have rightfully given it up. That is why over the years there have been many iterations of the group some years with no activity. However, this year is the most active we've seen the birth of multiple. Is that the reason why the Phantom Order is active now??" Randall questions as he takes a pause.
"Nonetheless, you" he turns in my direction.
"Mr.Valerus Marina correct?" Randall asks me.
"Y-yes"
"Are you perhaps the son of Marko Marina?"
"He was a good mage. A good friend as well. I have known him since our academy days when we were in the same homeroom. We grew apart as he joined The Federation and I went to become a professor" Randall speaks to me.
"Wow, I guess my dad knew a lot of people," I thought to myself.
"Yes he was quite popular but anyhow I shall continue with the presentation" Randall swipes the air as he continues where he left off.
As that happened I could feel someone staring at me from behind who was it.
I turned around to be met once again with the elf girl as she quickly changed her focus in front of her.
"I've got to talk to her after this," I said.
