A bloody Zombie appears.

"There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line."

"So my name is Lucien here?"

"That is correct, you are the heir to a small noble in the kingdom of Zeharos, it is a small affiliated kingdom of the Empire of Mateos, we are currently in Baberosi, the capital of learning in the Mateosi Empire. You are here to study magic, as one of the few people capable of this in the empire and its affiliated kingdoms you should command large amounts of respect however the previous host of this body was bad at magic, really bad. To the point where it was questioned if him passing the entry exam was a fluke, he was unable to awaken me and as a result was killed off by his rivals, mages here in the academy are fighting for the right to appear in the courts of the surrounding empires and kingdoms, the lower the amount of your fellow mages, the more resources you have for yourself."

"Makes sense, survival of the fittest and all that, are there rules to the academy? Surely it is bad for them if all of the mages that they teach are killed by one another."

"There are only consequences if you fail to kill your target, it is generally frowned upon to kill another mage however it is not forbidden, after all, the academy understands that it can't supply every mage with the best materials, competitions are routinely held with the winners getting the best gear available. I suggest you follow the memories of the old Lucien and find your classroom, I also suggest you look over the spells you know en route, prepare yourself for whatever may happen when you get there."

"Thank you Lucy, speak to you later tonight, now to find some clean clothes, actually scratch that, I can wear these into my classroom, the memories of 'my' death last night say that it was two of my classmates that killed me off. Should be interesting to see their reactions now."

As he walked towards his classroom, Lucifer took in his surroundings, the structures around him were made out of wood and beautifully carved marble, it was clear that this was a world in the medieval era and the academy was extremely wealthy, well by Earth standards anyway. As he walked towards a small cabin on the far side of the large academy grounds, a large number of students screamed when they saw him, the blood covering his body caused a few of them to faint.

Lucifer ignored this and opened Lucy as he walked, turning over to page three and four, on the third page there was a picture of an embryo that looked a lot like Lucien, there was a passage underneath the picture that read 'The above picture represents the level of your spirit, as you increase its power it will grow until it surpasses even you, your spirit has unique attributes and all mages have a spirit level and unique abilities. You will need to be wary of those who have abilities that can uncover the demonic nature of your spirit, your current spirit abilities are Demon's Desires and Demon King's Aura. The following page has more information;

Demon's Desires- The user can see the targets true desires, as the host gets better at using the ability, they may be able to alter and change a targets desire to suit there own ends. Currently the user can only see base level desires in the target. Rank = F-

Demon King's Aura- An aura of fear spreads out of the user, this is a passive aura that the host will always emit, as the aura gets stronger it will act as a de-buffer for your enemies, making them weaker and easier for the user to kill.

As he Lucifer walked into the classroom, he bumped into a woman, she let out a startled scream as she fell to the floor, looking up a Lucifer she snarled" Lucien what the hell are you doing?"

Before she realised what Lucien looked like, she froze as his blood covered clothes entered her vision, she screamed at the sight as Lucifer walked into the classroom, the room went silent as he entered, everyone turned to him in horror, he simply smiled and said" So I didn't die, Oliver and Mark, it is your time to die in my stead, get out here now...."
