Red Queen Academy

'one step and you'll die... DIE' Lith clenched his fist so hard his nails dug into his hand making him bleed. "do you expect me to give up on the only chance at a future like ill ever do that because you threaten my life you have no power just like me. all you have is your family going for you and they can't help you once you start climbing."

but Jack had already left for the entrance leaving Lith yelling at nothing.

LIth then started walking as well with a few gazes from other people around still, but this didn't bother him as he's had to deal with people's gazes his whole life even unseen eyes.

as he got closer the more majestic the castle-like structure seemed to become and the entrance/reception become visible. upon entering he was directed to a small room with a look of disgust coming from the receptionist guiding him. this was likely because of the clothes he was wearing.

after entering the door shut behind him and blue rays of light scanned his body from top to bottom. then mechanical arms holding clothes and scrubbing tools came out. the arms proceeded to cut the clothes off his body and scrub it down until squeaky clean. still, in shock, the arms put clothes of Lith and placed a pile in his hand.

a screen opened up in front of him on the wall bringing LIth back to his senses.

"what just happened"

some text appeared on the screen

[academy clothe have been given the floor number your on will automatically appear on your back. the uniform must always be worn on academy grounds and has a tracing fetcher. If you touch the crest and say "I request a duel with { name of opponent }" you will start a requested duel. if you've been requested to duel you can do two things touch the crest and say "I accept" or "I decline".]

[ your home class has been assigned, you are in class 11064. to get to the classroom head to one of the large teleporters and tell the standing guard "to classroom 11064" and step through the portal.]

after reading, LIth looked at the clothes he was wearing. he had some kind of skin-tight suit fitted together from hexagon patterns. most of the suit was white except under the armpit down the side of the legs. both feet and hands were covered and it went up his neck leaving only his face bear.

that's when his eyes lad on the round orange tablet in his hand "so this will help me with my skinny body hmm... THEN WHY DIDN'T THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO STOP MY BODY FROM GETTING LIKE THIS TO START WITH AAAAAA." he calmed himself down and steered at the tablet before swallowing it

the door opened up after that letting LIth go to the portal

it wasn't hard to find where the portals were as there was a sign saying portals seen plain as day. he walked over there and some random girl ran striate at him pushing him to his ass.

"oww, I'm so sorry about that I wasn't looking where I was going" the girl was breathing heavily while giving a hand to Lith.

Lith ignored the hand got up and continued to walk 'that girl is bad news, she wasn't walking toward anything, the portals are behind her she already changed and is a newbie like me. not to mention there was a huge amount of space around me. I think I need to stay away from her.'

the girl was left with her hand out, dumbfounded at her rejection only snapping out of it when Lith was already stepping into the portal.

going through felt wired it was like every particle was being dismantled and split apart it wasn't painful nor relaxing it was just strange.

it didn't last too long as his body was put back together in some kind of classroom. there was a board and a stand with a seat half surrounding it, enough to fit around 1000 people.

there were many already in the room but still, so many seats left. so he ended up finding one at the back corner and waited.

after a short time, many more people had exited including the girl from before. in an act to not be noticed he ducted behind the desk. luckily she didn't see him and took a seat in the front

after a few more minutes thunder stuck the podium leaving behind a young blond-haired man. "hello, fresh meat, I'm your teacher but you can call me Mr Bont, and ill be introducing the basics to you."

"well start with talking about your inner self, you may have heard your parents talking about this but now that you're 16 you'll finally find out."

"It starts with a large marble in the center with two forces encompassing each other called the spirit one crimson and one almost coral blue. the two forces are your representations of mind and body."

then there are the 8 circling spheres which represent your attributes like strength and speed with the glowing particles expressing how much you have. strength is red, health is orange, speed is yellow, health regeneration is green, intelligence is light blue, wisdom is dark blue, dexterity is grey, and senses are purple.

"one of the most important things in the middle of your center spirit is soul weapons. these are the only things that can defend and hunt monsters. there can be many varying in size and shape most have 2-5 and these are your lifeline. these weapons can be handed down genetically and can even form mutated weapons. you will also have weapons that tie to your personality or destiny."

"lastly is how you get stronger, there are yellow stars that will appear in your spirit when you kill beasts. when you hit a certain amount they dissipate and create particles in your tribute spheres. this amount increases by 50 percent each time this level up happens".

now how to enter your inner self,
