Chapter 3 - Realization & Acceptance (2)

'I don't know if this is a dream come true or a nightmare waiting to happen.'

Airen frantically rushes to the nightstand beside his bed. He looks through the drawers as if searching for something.

"Ah hah!" He proclaims. His search is successful. He pulls out a scroll with a red tie on it.

'If this is what I think it is, then I can truly confirm my suspicions.'

Airen opens the scroll, and a wave of nostalgia washes over him. What he is staring at is the map of this world. The map is detailed down to the last bits, and the four major kingdoms are outlined.

Ravengarde - The land of the Humans

Elvengarde - The land of the elves

Dwarvegarde - The land of dwarves

and Noctegarde - The land of demons

There is one more scroll waiting for him in the nightstand drawer. This one is quite wet, as if someone had been crying on it. Airen gently opens the scroll and peeks at the top of the text.

Welcome to Ravengarde Academy, Greyphis Sparkfury!

'How did this fool get accepted? Considering his stats-- well, my stats, I shouldn't have ever made it into Ravengarde Academy.'

'This weakling even has a bane that cuts his magic ability in half.'

Airen knew that going to the academy was the best plan of action if he wanted to survive in this world.

'The scroll says that the entrance exam is exactly 1 month from now.'

The first step Airen needed to do was to forsake his name and adopt his new name; after all, it would be weird at the academy if the teachers took attendance and nobody responded.

Authors note: Airen will now be referred to as Greyphis

Greyphis goes to the mirror once again and takes a long, hard look at his feeble body. For once, the decision he makes is swift and final. He needs to get stronger.
