To The Sky

The sun will set one day; the darkness will come to the world again, the dim starlight will reveal the shadows of horror that hide in the darkness, the moon will become the expected dawn and the sun will become one of the stories of the past that children hear about it from their elders, fear will become the currency of the world and the hope will be forbidden to talk about it and freedom will be dreams for children and elders they feed on it in a few moments before waking up to cruel reality…

With its feet on the ground and its head staring at the sky, the dragon stands proud, with its voice that shakes the heavens roaring across countless universes and conquering all with its greatness…

This is the greatness of the dragon so kneel in front of it and lower your heads in humility...

Summit academy…

It arose with the rise of the empire after the freedom war that lasted for seven years throughout...

They created many heroes at the time such as the dreamer and the traveler who participated in the War of Dignity before a five hundred years ago and that's why their position in the empire was unshakable.. It's said that the tyrant visited the academy once after the establishment of the empire but this hasn't been proven…

Finally, the examiners realized that they didn't come just for exams but for a purge and few would come out of it…

In this turbid atmosphere in the arena, there were many young men and women watching the scene from a far and even some professors…

Their eyes looked at the scene with a sarcastic smile…

"New class, new purge, I wonder how many will survive this time"

"15% maximum"

"Have you forgotten who is in charge of the test this year?"…

"Oh...it's Professor Jin....so maybe 5% max"

"I'm sure there will be a good show to see this year"

"I disagree with you these examiners don't look special at all, even the one who was killed a while ago doesn't look like anything just that ban looks fairly good"

A soft voice joined the discussion "Are you looking down on the heir of a royal family?"

"Without law it is nothing"

"You are right, he abandoned a law to take an element, his fate in the end is like the others, and he will not achieve anything"…

Many discussions were resounding everywhere and they were somewhat similar about the remaining percentage which didn't exceed 10%...

"Have you heard the rumors?" said the soft voice…

"Any rumors?"

"The Dragon is coming"

"Which dragon?"

"Don't tell me the Terminator is coming"

"No, it's the soaring dragon"…

They were both surprised "Are you sure?"…

"By a small percentage but there are many who have heard this talk"…

"If what you say is true then we will see a good show"…

Back to the arena

"We died"…

One of the young men said…

Despair pervaded the hearts of the testers and their energy began to fade especially as they saw the towers getting closer and closer to them especially the last towers with numbers on them from 5,000 to 10,000

"Get your pieces together" one of the examiner girls shouted and stepped forward "towers may be strong but they can't dodge"…

"Look at these numbers" One of the examiners pointed to the numbers on the towers "They represent power, look at that last one and the number ten thousand above it"…

"We can avoid them"…

"Don't deceive yourself" the young man sighed "the strongest in us his power doesn't reach five thousand and that tower has the double of this power without mentioning the rest of the towers and their strange ability to split, simply be ready for death"…

"Why do you allow yourself to despair?"…

"Why don't you see the truth?"…

The young man sighed took two steps forward and stood at the forefront of the crowd "This is my end, I'm Arkon… I have no regrets in my life except that I didn't join the academy but I learned one thing which is that I will not die a coward"…

He started stepping towards one of the low towers specifically the number three and stood proudly in front of it…

-Foolish courage-...

Words echoed in everyone's minds while the rest of the participants lamented the condition of what would soon be their condition…

Booooooooooooooooooooooooom

The tower exploded and with it arkon flew flying…

"The heir of the Wind Family will not die"…

At that moment, it was as if he had grown wings…

His wind energy exploded and formed a great hurricane that gained strength from the explosion and even flew across the green line...

Immediately after the hurricane disappeared the young man stood under the wide open eyes of the participants…

The boy looked at them as if they were a group of idiots "How was my acting? I know that I am an artist but don't flatter me too much because I...

Crush

The black tower that was in the back appeared at a terrifying speed behind the young man and crushed him with a steel fist that appeared from his metal body and then disappeared again as if it didn't exist..

What was left was some sap and blood mixed with crushed bones…

He wasn't the first to be killed today but his death was the ugliest and reminded the participants of the meaning of purgatory.

One of the participants couldn't stop himself from shouting "Didn't you tell us that if we crossed the green line we would qualify to the second test?"…

"It was only the first stage" the professor replied carelessly "but as soon as the Black Tower appears the second stage of the first test has begun, Now you must not only reach the green line but destroy the Black Tower as well, otherwise you will not only qualify but none of you will survive"…

"But…But"…

The young man didn't know how to speak out of excessive fear, while the Professor Jin's expression didn't carry any concern "Instead of trying to talk to me try to fight and looking for a way to escape sorry I mean to qualify"…

"Garbage" ban who was resting against a wall stand up and said with disgust before turning around…

"Wait" professor Jin called him…

"What's wrong?"…

"The Dragon is coming!"….

"The soaring Dragon"...

"Yes"…

Ban's steps stopped and asked "How strong is he?"…

"He made his own skill"…

"So I'm not a competitor to him and yet" he returned to his position before adding "I will still wait, as a worthy opponent like him you don't meet him every day"…

"Believe me when I say that here you will not find worthy opponents but rather terrifying monsters"…

Ban didn't reply while the voices of discussion rose among the attendees, students and professors of the academy…

"Why is this year's class so rubbish?"…

"You are right, these nobles who rarely faced any difficult situations in their lives are put in a life or death situation with a death percentage exceeding 99% and they see death in front of them every moment, it is really difficult to predict the number of survivors this year"…

"That professor Jin and his strange disease, among the tests he chose only the hardest one, is he so thirsty for blood?"…

"I've heard he is mad from many professors and students and he has strange hobbies and a secret place where he does many brutal experiments on humans and beasts"…

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?"...

"No, but I heard about this from trusted people"…

"Me too "…

"This class is really bad"…

The towers approached the participants who continued to retreat to each other until they formed a giant circle surrounded by towers from everywhere and...

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom

They all exploded

{How many participants survived? 1, 2 or did no one survive in the first place}

{Stay tuned..... Regards, Zero}
