The Mana Magician

"In the 30th century, human kind should have been prospering. However, the sudden emergance of "Aliens" drove the human race to the brink of extinction. Desperate, the human race migrated to another planet, while "Aliens" ran rampant on earth.

Despite being invaded countless times by these "Aliens", the human race still managed to survive, that is due to the emergance of Mages!" The old professor exclaimed in front of a group of extremely bored students.

"Tch, why do we have to study this bullshit, I'd rather go to practical class and learn to beat up some aliens." A ginger haired student cried out.

The old professor pretended not to hear.

"We are currently living in planet Xers, the planet which is 20 light years away from earth. Due to the improving technology, humans have already crafted light speed spacecrafts on the 26th century. These spacecrafts were used to transport the human population to Planet Xers to escape extinction. Spacecrafts can also be used for other things such as space exploration or to battle against the aliens." The professor continued non chalantly.

"Professor, where did the Aliens come from?" A student asked.

"Even after studying for several centuries, we still have no idea. The records left behind by the ancestors were unclear and fragmented. All historians know is that, one day they suddenly appeared on earth out of nowhere." The professor answered.

"Are aliens strong?" Another student asked. When speaking about Aliens, all the students aroused from their drowsy state. After all, the reason they came to Star academy is to join the battlefield and help the human race retaliate agaisnt the aliens. Aliens were the common enemy of all the humans.

"You are only 1st years, don't worry about that. You won't be sent to the battlefield. Star academy is located deep in the capital, the aliens would not dare to invade here. Rather than that, you should worry about Savage beast."

"Savage beast?" A student asked in confusion. They were here to fight aliens, where did savage beast come from?

"Indeed. Savage beast are the natural inhabitants of Planet Xers. They are devoid of intelligence and will attack any human they see. As first years, you will be sent to forests to hunt savage beast and collect their cores, which are abundant in mana. That's enough for today, you are dismissed." The old professor left the class.

"Jamie, what do you think about the history class?" A student with auburn hair asked.

"Useless, there is absolutely no use. How would knowing the history of our race help us kill aliens, I'd rather meditate and increase my mana." Jamie replied.

The students in the class all heard the conversation and they silently nodded to themselves.

"I can't wait for the practical class!" The auburn haired student exclaimed.

Jamie nodded, seemingly agreeing with his statements.

A figure stared outside the window, not moving an inch throughout the entire lecture. If one did not intently find her, her presence would not have been noticed.

"Lia, hurry up!" Nana shouted as she saw her friend approach the cafeteria. "How was your first lesson?" Nana asked while shoving her food onto her mouth.

"Good." Emilia replied

"What was it about?"

Emilia gave a blank look in reply. Her expression plainly stating "I don't know"

"You should listen carefully to the lecture next time. It will be beneficial to you.

"Ok." Emilia replied blandly.

Seeing her expression, Nana slapped her forehead. "You are not sincere at all!" Nana exclaimed in her head but knew better than to argue with this air head.

"What class do you have next?" Nana asked.

"Basic magic."

"Good. That's extremely important, you should listen." Nana reminded.

Emilia nodded.

"I still remember the first time I attended basic magic class. I could not even materialized a single mana ball....." Nana continued reminiscing about her past.
