As I took a taxi to reach Nova Academy, my thoughts swirled like leaves caught in a gust of wind. There were moments when I entertained the idea of not coming, of retreating to the comfort of my familiar life. But I knew that I couldn't afford to miss this opportunity; this was where the main plot of my story would unfold.
The cityscape outside the taxi window blurred by, a symphony of lights and shadows that mirrored the complexity of my emotions. The anticipation was palpable, a mixture of excitement and trepidation that painted the canvas of my mind.
The vehicle finally came to a stop, pulling me out of my contemplation. I paid the fare and stepped out onto the bustling sidewalk. My gaze lifted, and there it was—the grand entrance of Nova Academy, a portal to a world of knowledge and adventure.
Back on earth, I had my fair share of experiences back in high school. But now, as a reincarnated individual with prior knowledge, I understand the gravity of the situation. The academy's instructors were known to be strict, particularly towards those with lower rankings like myself. Their attitudes often bordered on dismissive, as if we were expendable pawns in their grand game.
I desperately wanted to avoid falling into their dismissive perception, lest I become trapped in a cycle of insignificance. There were far too many things I needed to accomplish within the confines of Nova Academy's training grounds before I could safely venture beyond the boundaries of human territory.
First on my list was participation in a series of crucial events that would transpire within Nova Academy. However, I couldn't shake off the nagging thought—would my participation in these events alter the plotline? The answer was an unequivocal yes, but that answer came with layers of uncertainty.
After all, my reincarnation might have triggered a butterfly effect within the story, causing ripples of change that could lead to unexpected outcomes. With this daunting possibility in mind, I had resolved to keep a vigilant eye on the unfolding narrative, ready to intervene if any deviation threatened to disrupt the original storyline.
As I halted my train of thought, the sight of the Academy gates came into view, casting aside my musings like clouds parting to reveal the sun. The colossal entrance stood as a sentinel of opportunity, a gateway to the uncharted territories of my new life. With a deep breath, I stepped forward, my heart echoing the rhythm of my determined steps.

Nova Academy stood as a beacon of enlightenment within the confines of the Academy City—a sprawling island sanctuary, ensconced within the embrace of Sylvanwood's lush, vibrant landscapes. This enclave of knowledge and aspiration was a marvel of architectural fusion, blending the intricacies of advanced technology and the harmonious weave of mana-infused structures.
The Outer Grounds, encompassing the periphery of the island, housed the dormitories and training facilities for the cadets. Towering trees formed natural canopies, imbuing the air with vitality and serenity. In contrast to the towering spires of the other Academy, the structures here harmonized with nature, incorporating energy-efficient materials and utilizing living greenery to establish an intimate connection with the environment.
Moving toward the heart of the island, the Inner Precincts unfolded—a marvel of ingenuity that drew inspiration from the artistic elegance of elven aesthetics.
Pillars of ivy-clad stone, intertwined with shimmering mana-infused patterns, greeted visitors with an air of dignified charm.
The cadet accommodations here exemplified a harmonious blend of comfort and functionality, replete with modern amenities.
A centrepiece of the academy was the Astral Nexus—a colossal, crystalline observatory that reached toward the sky like a beacon of dreams.
A fusion of magic and technology, this dome allowed cadets to peer into the cosmos, igniting a sense of wonder and exploration. The atrium surrounding the Nexus was a hub of activity, with holographic displays and interactive panels fostering a culture of discovery.
Enchanted spires rose from the grounds, housing lecture halls, laboratories, and libraries—the very essence of academia. Unlike the expansive and imposing grandeur of the Global Academy, Nova Academy's structures emanated a coalescence of ethereal elegance and pragmatic design, echoing the cadet's pursuit of knowledge unburdened by ostentation.
Spanning the island, a network of mana conduits intertwined with tech-infused pathways, facilitating swift travel and communication.
Crystal-clear waterways meandered through the grounds, their gentle currents inviting contemplation and reflection.
Bridges of translucent materials connected diverse sections of the island, metaphorically embodying the interconnectedness of knowledge and camaraderie fostered within the academy's walls.
And at the island's centre, the Grand Nexus—an immense luminescent crystal, pulsating with ethereal light—stood as both the heart of the Academy City and the epic epicentre of Nova Academy's teachings.
It was here that cadets congregated for assemblies, competitions, and moments of shared triumph. The Nexus symbolized unity, illuminating the path to greatness for all who sought its guidance.
We'll That's how I describe the Nova Academy I know that I exaggerated a lot of things, but give me a break I want this academy the best of the best so I did what all novice authors do.
Let's not talk about my dark past.
Sigh-
I stood at the entrance of Gats, The gates were still closed but they would be open soon.
I'm sorry I made a mistake I'm not alone here.
With me, there are at least thousands of students who are standing with me.
As I said this academy accepts all of the races so there are many Elves and drawers I can see.
This Academy was built after the war between demons, its main purpose was to show symbolic unity to show others that they are united and that they can take care of all problems when everyone is one.
Well that what it's says but the hidden meaning is that they are trying to check each other who has more powers.
At the right moment, everything is at peace but in future. Who knows what can happen?
I couldn't help but sigh again after thinking about what path lay ahead of me.
It was going to be difficult to survive past the final war.
Just a mere thought of that sent a shiver down my spine.
Screech—!
A cacophonous metal screech reverberated across the expanse where eager cadets of the academy stood, their anticipation palpable.
In an instant, the colossal obsidian gates of the academy began to glide apart, capturing the undivided attention of everyone present.
"Nova Academy had opened its get," I muttered to myself as students around me started to head inside Nova Academy.
"Let's do this," I said as I also walked into the Nova Academy.
