Why is it that no matter how beautiful a women might look, all I can think about is the Imperial Princess.
Haa, I just realised that I no longer call her Serina. I might have accepted reality but the feelings I have for her haven't died down one bit.
Why was I thinking about her right now you ask?
She was currently in the Practical Training Class and I was in the same class as her.
So I get to see her about 4 times a month. And whenever I do, feelings and memories of her just flood in like a tsunami.
But, at the same time... I'm starting to feel like all the memories I had with her might just be a long delusional dream.
Maybe, I was dreaming alot after seeing the imperial princess in pictures and that made me dream about her.
Creating a rift between a dream and reality. I don't know which is dream and which is reality.
But than... What about the scar on my face and a big scar on my Abdomen that I thought I had got it while protecting the Imperial Princess.
Maybe, I was hurt some other way?
But, than who... Was it that hurt me to such a degree, especially the Big scar on my abdomen.
I have no memories of being hit this hard.
But, at the same time...
I don't wanna believe that whatever I had with her were just dreams created by me to satisfy my own agenda.
The agenda of being useful to the One I love the most in the world.
That'd mean, that I really stand no chance of even being friends with her.
Not, that there really is a way for us to be friends.
Even the AS Ranked students treat me like shit, like those 2 women I met about a week ago.
They really despised me. I haven't talked to them since, I've tried greeting them whenever I run into them but I just end up glancing upwards. And downwards repeatedly.
Hoping she'd look at me, only for them to just ignore me and walk away.
I than awkwardly walk away hoping nobody saw the embarrassing display I put on Just Now.
Why is it that every women I interact with ends up either hating me from the beginning or at the end.
Welp, whatever... It ain't any of my concern anymore.
I was just thinking of all this so, it'd be easier to give up on the Imperial Princess.
Because if I don't it'll be very problematic.
Anyway, Tomorrow was the day of the exam and I'd reached 57% of C rank.
It was quite the amount of progress that I just had.
So now, I was very much ready to face off against my opponents and reach the Top.
Let's gooo...
...
And, so... It was the day of the Exam and the Matchups were decided and were put up on the board of each group of 8.
Around 4 Matches take place at the same time, in a group...
And there are allotted different Sets for different groups in this building of 700 Floors.
The academy is pretty much made of modern technology and building tech.
The only difference is that Building Tech is in a whole new level because of mana.
And, Magic tech has just bought up new possibilities to the frey.
So, this academy is the most advanced academy than any academy you'll ever see.
Hmm? What am I actually comparing the academy with?
I don't know...
Anyway, there are about 700 floors in the building.
With each floor having 4 Big Arenas enough to house a game for each pair.
500 floors carry The basic Arenas, 5 Rooms are for warp gates that get you to the main battle ariena that is in a secluded forest which has been cut down and levelled for Tournament Purposes.
These 5 Arenas host the top 10 and the final 10 Tournaments.
That happens after the Groip stage.
Right now, depending on how many people I best.
And their levels I'll get a promotion.
So, if the last person I beat was ranked above 3200 I'll be ranked above 3200.
I'll get the exact same rank as the person I beat last and I'll take his place and go into Class C.
And his Monthly Income will Come to me.
So, if I manage to beat a 3000 ranked person I'll get around 30 Gold coins every month.
This will allow me to eat a Silver coin course meal that will fill my belly.
And I can still spare money for the next month.
I've been living the whole week eating bread, butter and milk so it'll be a huge boost.
Because I'd shared 7 of my gold coins with my mother back home.
I'd have shared more but I also needed some to survive.
I didn't think 13 Gold coins wouldn't be enough to live here without rent or any other necessaties.
If costs 4 Gold Coins for a month's worth of rent for the House which my mother was currently living in.
The fact that it Costs 70 Gold coins every year to study in this academy speaks volumes of how my mother might be suffering right now.
That's why, it became my duty to save as much as possible and send it to my mother so she doesn't feel so burdened anymore.
The fact that the academy allows this is a great initiative from them.
Well, they are the prime gold Producers.
And have a huge mine about the radius of 50Kms spread across an entire small nation.
So, they can exploit Gold coins however they want.
I wish they could use other means of Currency that way, the gold wouldn't be wasted like this.
But, that is way harder than what it looks like.

Anyway, it was time...
