2 Leon Percy

"Leon, Leon!"

A young lady, with a slightly above average features, was yelling. She may not be considered beautiful but she still has a certain charm in her that makes her extremely likable. Wearing ordinary clothes as she was running with all of her might.

Arriving at a small hut which by its looks can only accommodate a single person, without hesitation she opens up the door, only to see a bare-chested young man sitting on a cross-legged.

"Kyaa!" The young lady immediately closed the door back again, her face was bright red seeing that.

The young man inside shook his head upon hearing her scream, he then stood up from his sitting position and wore a shirt to cover his upper body. He then went to open the door and looked at the young lady whose face was red as a tomato.

"You really like watching me naked huh?" The young man smiled.

When she saw the smile of the young man, the young lady's heart raced a bit as her face went red even more. She glared at the young man in front of her and tried her best to act angry.

"Leon, Do you know what day is it today?" She asked him.

The young man, Leon, thought hard for a bit before his face shone with realization, he looked at the young lady in front of her.

"Cicily, is it today?" he asked.

"Yes! And you told me that you want to participate in it also, why are you still here? Everyone in the town is already gathered in the open field." Cicily said.

"They are already gathered? That fast?" Leon thought. It was still very early in the morning as the sun had just risen, for them to be already gathered in the open field, just how early did they wake up?

"Of course, it only happens once every five years!" Cicily exclaimed. She then started dragging Leon, "Come on!"

Leon can't help but just allow himself to be dragged by Cicily, the greatest benefactor of his life and can also be said to be the one who had helped him survive.

He still cannot forget what happened two years ago, he was just a person wandering around the forest. His body was full of wounds, his clothes are tattered and can't be recognized anymore. He had nothing on him that is worth a thing.

The worst part is that he had forgotten who he was before or where he even came from. It was already a miracle that he can still talk properly and even have the general knowledge and understanding of everything around him.

It was like, he had specifically forgotten who he was before and his other memories remained. As he had also forgotten his name, he named himself as Leon Percy on impulse and now likes this name, which is kinda strange.

Cicily was the one who had found him wandering in the Lost Forest and nursed him back to full health. He was extremely grateful for her that he decided to stay in their small town to help her and her family to earn their living.

It was even his idea to live in a small hut so he can have privacy but also won't be a burden to Cicily's family. He just wants to spend his life protecting her and nothing more, though another reason for that is because he likes her.

Anyways, what Cicily meant by the thing that only happens once every five years is the Orgoth Academy's Student Selection.

Orgoth Academy is the number one academy in the continent and is said to have taught numerous influential experts to what they are today. They hold a very large influence on the continent that emperors had to give a face to them and don't cause trouble because of fear.

It had already existed even before the first empire had ever been founded, the deep of its history is unfathomable that it had developed to what it is today.

There are even rumors that the founder of the Orgoth Academy was a great general during the Cosmic War, but no one had any evidence to prove this rumor so, until today, it had stayed as a rumor.

But what really attracts a lot of people's attention to joining the Orgoth Academy is the benefits one will receive when they join.

First, they have the largest library that has numerous books on cultivation technique and many other things. With their long history, some of these books are even a thousand years old or more, which makes it even more valuable.

Second, they have a lot of resources since they possess about 3 Special Space which two are medium-size Mystique Grade while the other one is a small-size Mystique Grade.

Special Spaces are a type of space where it is connected to another place in the void, where, it could be fertilized and can be used to grow valuable herbs, suited for breeding beasts or have valuable ores or materials in it.

The three Special Space owned by the Orgoth Academy, one is used for breeding Spirit Beasts, another one for growing Spirit and some Mystique Herbs, while the last one is where the main source of their wealth comes from.

With these two things, the Orgoth is already a placed to be but the most important thing that attracts most of the people's attention and made them join the academy is the preferential treatment of their students will receive.

That is if you manage to pass their strict test.
