Ugh
A sudden sensation of pain jolted Rayan awake.
Unable to understand his current situation as he was supposed to have died, his expression scrunched up.
What's this pain...?
His thoughts were in a mess due to having died and then the jolting pain.
Before he could think of anything more, another jolt of pain rocked his mind.
Suddenly, memories came rushing into his mind.
Argh
Rayce Draven... Magic Academy... Honor Student... World of Magic...
Despite getting all the information directly into his mind, Rayan, or now Rayce Draven, didn't get the full picture.
Just what in the world did I experience?
The most recent memories were kind of hazy and blurry in his consciousness, stopping from understanding his current situation.
All he knew was that Rayce Draven had been admitted to the Veritas Nexis Academy of Magic.
Magic...? No way!
As the memories came flooding in, Rayce couldn't believe his situation.
Slowly, he began to organise them despite the mess.
Rayce Draven.
He awakened to mana at the age of 12 just like the rest.
Though not everyone in this world could use mana, or magic.
Even after awakening to mana, he could not get into the ranks of Magi, Magus, Mage, or Magicians.
After all, he was but a distant relative of a lowly baron.
But his magical talent was noticed by the baron, who wrote a letter of recommendation to the Veritas Nexis Academy of Magic.
Under the guidance of the baron and resources for magic available, he did his best with the limited resources.
As time passed, he finally turned 18, the age required to give the Unified Entrance Exam for the Magic Academies.
Leaving his parents from the countryside to the academy was a hard decision but with the baron promising aid to his family, his curiosity for magic couldn't be curbed anymore.
Arriving at the Exam site, he sat together with fellow magic enthusiasts and ended up getting accepted into the Veritas Nexis Academy of Magic.
In one year of studying here, he caught up with the others and even surpassed them with the proper guidance and training.
By the end of his Year One, Rayce Draven became the Honor Student of the academy, surpassing everyone.
As his magical talent overshadowed them, they could only grit their teeth and keep it inside for as long as they could.
Being unable to defeat him one-on-one, even when he held back, was more than enough to hurt their pride.
Unable to take it anymore they began using his kindness and naivety against him.
Asking for help with homework, thesis, exams and everything.
Being the kind boy from countryside, he actually helped them again and again. He couldn't see past their facades at all.
What a patehtic fool.
That was all Rayan could call Rayce Draven until he realised he himself had become Rayce Draven.
Wait... Why are these memories... as if it's me...?
No way, right!?
As the realisation dawned on him, his head ached as he finally opened his eyes.
Only darkness with little to no light came into his sight as he blinked rapidly, quickly adjusting to it.
Argh... Where am I?
Moving about in bed, he accidentally touched something.
So soft... and squishy...
What is this?
Before he could think about anything, a moan interrupted his thoughtss.
"Ahh~"
His mind froze at the sudden moan when he abruptly withdrew his hand
Under the dim light, he realised there was a woman next to him in bed.
Though he couldn't see her face, he could see the sheet barely covering her breast, which he had just squeezed.
Why the fuck is there a girl next to me??
Why was a freaking honors student having a girl in his bed?!
As if answering him, the hazy memories of the steamy night came to him.
That's when he realised it wasn't a woman, but a girl about his age, also a student at the academy.
Slowly but surely his frozen thoughts moved when her identity came to him.
"Fuck! I've been had!"
The first thing he did was curse after knowing who she was.
She was a girl who frequently appeared in his memories, someone who seemed infatuated with the naive Rayce.
Of course, he was dense, not noticing her advances at all.
But worse of all, she was the younger sister of the Student Council President.
Now, that wouldn't be a problem as the students were adults and such things happened quite often.
However, her slightest mention of it being against her wish would be the end of him.
Unlike Rayce, Rayan was no idiot.
There's no way it was with her consent, this idiot, Rayce, was being plotted against!!
But who in the world has the nerve to mess up that guy's younger sister!?
Everyone know how much he treasures her and if this were to leak...
Rayce could gulp in nervousness at the thought, but he wasn't sure of it.
Even if the girl seemed to be infatuated, she wouldn't go to such an extent to get him to notice her, right?
Or maybe all of it was an act and she planned for it?
Unfortunately, the scenes from last night were quite vivid, making him understand it was her first time.
There's no way a noble lady would lose her first time as her reputation would be in shambles, so was it her who was plotted against?
Rayce had no idea about the truth, but the possibilities were endless.
While going through them with his messed up mind, he didn't even get the time to consider how he was alive?
Why was he transmigrated?
That too, in such a shitty situation!
"Hehe~ don't~ slow~"
Rhe sudden gigle from the girl next to him caused him to turn to her.
Luckily, she's still sleeping.
Noticing her closed eyes and mumbling in her sleep, he thought he could leave without any problem.
Not getting caught was his priority when he recalled something.
This is my room, isn't this...?
There was no doubt whoever plotted against him had planned to corner him until there was nothing left.
Being the naive guy, Rayce would surely break and become a fallen prodigy.
