Ace of Spade's Order

Breeden Knights Academy is the most prestigious Academy in the Empire. If you are skilled enough, then you can be a scholar and enter the Academy. Most of the kids who dream to be a royal knight or to earn a title wish to enter this Academy. However, this is not a normal Academy. You will have to fight in order for you to get at least a value of a card. If you graduated from the Academy with a value of Ace, King, Queen, and Jack then you will be able to receive a fortune and the Emperor can grant one of your requests. Obtaining a value of a card is not easy as it looks like, you will need to have a skill and such intelligence to have it. The Academy is a battlefield where you can lose your life if you do not have any rank.   "I-I'm sorry! I didn't m-mean to spill the soup.." the pitiful student muttered while still on the ground and with her trembling hands, she used her handkerchief to wipe his shoes.  A deathly silence followed after that. Everyone is waiting to see what will happen. New students are kind of curious as well while the students who have been in the Academy since their first year just grimaced at the sight. "Fool." Nikola looked the the poor student like she is some bug as he kick her hand away, preventing her from wiping his shoes any longer. "....I command you to throw yourself out of the window." His voice was deep and dark, no one can look into his eyes because of fear.   "B-But w-we're on the third floor…" the student whispered in horror, "p-please forgive me! S-spare my life!"   Nikola chuckled, but his eyes is telling them that he is not amused. "Oh? Why are you not yet moving? Did I not command you?" a creepy smile appear on his face, "or are you planning to defy me, the King of the Diamond?"   Those students who have the value of a card rule the school, after all. It is a place where you just cannot trust anyone. Despite that, will love bloom before their heart stops beating?

First Order

"I sincerely wish you all the best. The Empire is expecting good results after this year." a man with a blond hair and amethyst eyes announced. His voices are deep, and his eyes are cold. "All of the graduating students, try to do your best and earn a rank. For the first years and new students.." he paused, scanning the sea of students and smirked.

"..try not to get yourself killed." The man finished and went down from the stage.

The first year and new students felt a sudden chill at that announcement while the old students just scoffed, already used to the man's antics.

However, a certain young man just stare coldly to the man who just went down from the stage. A young man who have a crimson hair and golden eyes, Claudia Zei Von Girdler, a son of a viscount who decided to attend this Academy to be a knight and have his own title.

A timid girl wearing round glasses, came up next.

"Right. Thank you for the speech, our Academy head." the girl coughed, "Now, before we end this first day ceremony, we would like to call the Bridges here on stage."

Of course, the new students knew. They knew that they would like to announce the Bridges students to let them know who are the students that they should not mess with or at least, students who they need to fight in order to become one of the Bridges as well.

Bridge is the title called to those students who managed to get a value of a card. Ace of Spade being the highest and Jake of Clubs being the opposite. Bridges basically rules the school. They can order any students in the Academy if they want to. Even the teachers are wary of them.

Being a member of Bridge means having a power and strength. The higher your value of card is, the stronger you are.

Claudia, would like to stand on top.
