1 Prologue

"That guy… did he actually manage?"

"Shhh! He might hear us!"

"I'd be more surprised if he didn't get it. He's a freak."

"To become one of the best 20,000 geniuses in the country… I wish…"

"You sure did!"

"You—!!"

"Silence, it's starting now."

The frail-looking middle-aged man walked to the front of the audience and grabbed the mic.

After a good twenty minutes of useless marketing for the Preparation School of Luo Barony, the dean finally got to the point.

"And now… I would like to give my thanks to the two students who managed to get accepted into the Federal College of Talents this year. After a somewhat short journey, they made several contributions to the school, and are now departing to the capital for a wider point of view. Please, a round of applause for… Aaron Braun and Leticia Seinfeld." His voice trembled a bit at the end.

""*Claps!*""

"Come on, Leti. It's time."

"Ah, y–yes." She was meek. "I really think we should have prepared a speech."

"Nonsense."

The fourteen year old boy with short blonde hair walked into the stage, pulling a blonde girl by the hand. The dean hurriedly left the stage. Once Aaron got to the stand, he released her hand and grabbed the mic.

"Ahem."

"*Uwooooom!*" A loud noise echoed.

"Dear friends and faculty." The boy gave a devilishly fearless smile. "Thank you all for the opportunity, I shall make good use of it."

He properly put the mic back where it was, and turned to the nervous girl. He grabbed her hand and left the stage, and then the school, to never come back. An uproar followed in his wake.
