Conquering The Novel

Today is the day that we will be appointed to our respective Advisor, I thought to myself while getting dressed in my new Academy uniform.

It was a White shirt, black pants with a black tie, and a black blazer, while on the left side of the blazer was a symbol of the S'oreh Academy which was a golden shield "Svalinn". The legendary shield represents that it stands before the sun to protect the Earth.

And beneath the shield, there was the Academy's name embedded in gold on my uniform.

And the Irony is that the shield color for different classes differs from each other. The Alpha class has a silver shield and the Beta class has a Bronze shield...

We were also given our Academy badges, and for special class students, it was made with gold in the shape of the Academy's logo which had a small button at its center, pressing that button a small holographic screen materializes that shows our Rankings, achievements, and our other information like titles and rumors about us as well. As our Academy encourages rumors of the popular students building fame for themselves as well as for the Academy.

The information on the batches will automatically be updated by our performances throughout the semester.

These badges will be quite helpful outside the Academy as well, as it shows the prestige of the academy.

After dressing up, I left my room and went towards the Academy building, while on my way I thought to myself about my request to Aegis, the portions will not be ready until the next week and I just have to be patient for now and continue attending the Academy and improve my strength.

As I don't know if that demon will help me, as it's as Aegis said, never trust a demon, as they will bite the hands that fed them. Because it's only natural for them. If the worst comes to worst, I will have to kill it myself,

As I was pondering to myself, I was already in front of the academy. As I went ahead, I saw a huge hologram in the center that shows the information of the advisors appointed to each student.

After seeing my name and the ones that have the same advisor as me, I chuckled inwardly,

Advisors Name: Bianca 'Blaze' Blue

Appointed students :

1) Ares Von Rothstaylor

2) Ziona Madlock

3) Kevin Cedric

Seeing Kevin's name I don't know if I should laugh or cry as he was the one that was supposed to be Mika's disciple.

He was like a delinquent at the start of the 1st year, and he was quite strong as well because he was Mika's disciple.

And he used to bully many other students before he met Lucas who was good friends with Ziona, Kevin had a bad impression of him as he always liked Ziona, and seeing Lucas close to her made him envious and sore, hence their rivalry became well-known around the academy, later he joined Claude's faction to win against Lucas but failed as they both were defeated.

Nevertheless, both Claude and Kevin got a huge character development after 1st year and they even fought alongside Lucas to deal with the demons and eventually joined his party.

After pondering to myself for a few minutes I arrived at the training ground which was allocated to our advisor Bianca.

As soon as I arrived at the training ground I was met with two students, of course, they were Ziona and Kevin.

Kevin was a red-haired and black-eyed guy with a handsome face and a well-trained body.

Actually, in the novel, Bianca only chose the two of them but now I am included.

Seeing me, Ziona greeted me with her huge evil smile and Kevin just nodded timidly towards me, what's with him I thought to myself and greeted both of them with a nod.

As we all stood there with an awkward silence, soon we heard footsteps from the entrance of the training ground, as we all scrutinized it, Our eyes were met with a beautiful woman,

She had light blue hair and light blue eyes with a beautiful face and sharp eyebrows that gave her a mature look, she was wearing blue battle armor which covered her figure while a sword was hanging around her waist.

Her real name was Bianca Blue but she was given the title of 'Blaze' for her unique element blue fire which holds more destructive power than a normal fire.

She was born in a witch community that specializes in witchcraft, Witches are quite hated as they are people suspected of practicing, either deliberately or unconsciously, socially prohibited forms of magic,

But Bianca uses a sword as her main weapon and didn't indulge herself in witchcraft, her story is similar to that of Ziona's as she was similarly disowned by her family, That's also the reason why she liked Ziona very much.

And the most important part is that she is Mika's rival, That doesn't mean she is hostile towards Mika, as she respects Mika for her power and swordsmanship very much. Because Mika is more vigorous than her.

As I was pondering myself she introduced herself,

"My name is Bianca Blue and I will be your advisor from this day forth"

Hearing her introduction we spoke in unison,

"We look forward to training with you."

She carried a smile on her face after hearing our enthusiastic answer. Then she glanced at each of us, but as her gaze met mine, suddenly her smile grew large as she spoke,

"Ares Von Rothstaylor right? I have to fight a whole lot of professors to get you under me as every professor was interested in you, So you better not disappoint me"

Hearing her I answered back,

"You better not disappoint me as well, because I have huge expectations from my advisor as well"

Listening to me Bianca quelled her smiling, while Ziona and Kevin widened their eyes in shock as they began staring at my arrogant face,

But after a few seconds of silence, the whole training ground was engulfed with laughter.

Of course, it was Bianca who was laughing out loud while holding her stomach after hearing my answer,

'That's a score I guess,' I thought to myself while seeing her reaction, I deliberately gave her an arrogant answer as I know her personality better than anyone in this room.

Finally, Bianca ceased her laughing and spoke again while rubbing her tears of laughter,

"You are more interesting than I thought, I look forward to what you will become in the future."

After speaking out, she brought us to the arena in the center of the training ground and asked us to demonstrate to her our every sword skill and technique so she can assist us more precisely.

The first one to display his skills and techniques was Kevin Cedric,

Seeing his display of skills and techniques honestly, I was disappointed, his attitude was the opposite of that in the novel and he lacked confidence as he was intimidated by me and Ziona and became quite anxious.

Was it because he isn't Mika's disciple now? I thought to myself,

Bianca's expression didn't change much after seeing his exposition as she just indicated to Kevin that he can now move down.

As soon as Kevin came down, Ziona went up to the arena and did the same, she improved quite a lot from the spar we had yesterday.

After displaying her sword skills and techniques she came down as well and beckoned me towards the arena.

It was finally my turn, I went up the arena and showed my only sword skill fell crescent which improved quite a lot and became a lot more powerful as I increased its Mastery.

Seeing my skill Ziona was stunned as I didn't use my sword skill in our spar.

But soon as I took my sword stance to perform my technique, Bianca who had a neutral face until now, widened her eyes in shock as she recognized my stance, and soon after I performed my sword techniques Bianca exclaimed in stupefaction,

"Y-You, you're Mika's pupil?

After hearing Mika's name both Kevin and Ziona were shocked, especially Ziona... as the wandering Adventurer that helped Ziona to choose the path of the sword was no other than Mika Amami...

It could be said that she is a half disciple of Mika, as Mika helped her in building a sword foundation.

But later Mika refused to take her in as her complete disciple, as she didn't want a disciple at that time.

And if I an anomaly wasn't here this would have been a perfect scene as this was supposed to be the meeting of people connected to Mika.

A Rival, a Disciple, and a rejected half Disciple...

"...." ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

What a good storyline it was supposed to be.

After pondering for a few seconds I replied to Bianca's question,

"Yes, I am the only disciple of an SS-RANK Adventurer Mika Amami."
