Artirian would walk back to his position but as soon as he went back the gazes turned down. And the looks would go to the second placer and which was Arthur Rom. Artirian was a bit shocked as he did not see Arthur when he entered the Academy.
The 4th year class man would repeat Arthur's name. Arthur would walk to the podium and throw the pin of a silver one. Artirian didn't know that Arthur had taken the exam as he did not see him earlier. The third name would be Theo Arvund Thornwind the grandson of the famous General Thornwind. And as once all the proctors would then give praise to Theo but he would rather ignore because he knows that they only give praise because of his grandfather.
The known strategist Conrad Thornwind who was the bravest and one of the excellent strategists in the known Empire. Soon the fourth would be Rhea Angelica Thornwind whom Artirian knew as Clara. Artirian would look at Rhea while walking towards the podium once again they would get gazes of each other but Rhea would flip his hair and tilted his head in another direction.Artirian would really get confused and wanted to talk to Rhea which he wanna asked if she was Clara that he met in the scouts guild but Artirian has doesn't have that kind of appeal to walk to her as she is also being surrounded by teenage noble boys who is part of the Tell heaven generation.
Soon the following names came from the Tell heaven generation. Those names are Rivero Guinevere, Blake Dragon Heart, Augustus Elder moon, Vrea Elder moon, Sienna Blazing, Kaliente Bloodstone. The Tell heaven generation was formed due to the 5 council high noble families. One to add that one of the Tell Heaven generations was crowned princess Sienna which was the strongest core among all the Tell heaven generation.
After the ceremonies of saying the names of the passers. Rommel would be the last one who was able to pass the entrance exam as he was ranked as the top 50 of the batch. After the ceremonies of the names the 4th year class man would then greet them with a smirked face "Welcome new freshies as I call you now as cadets and plebes''.
Soon everyone who is in their vicinity would look at the cadets that will enter the Academy. But for those who did not pass the academy entrance exam was ushered out of the Academy. Some were furious but some accepted that they did not pass such a rigorous test. They thought that power and money can easily get in the Academy and they were wrong.
Soon the Academy would throw a small party for the passing 50 teenage boys and girls that passed the entrance exam. The room would be filled with food and exotic chandeliers. It was small but it was like a party of the royals. Some 2nd-year class man would enter the party to crash it but there are some Academy Discipline Corp and they were easily put down. While the music was being played some waiters would roam around and serve some drinks. Some nobles would already ask other ladies to dance with them for a moment. Artirian would be at the party at the back.
Soon enough Artirian would be noticed by Arthur who was walking around and finding Rommel. "Artirian!" Arthur said in a high pitched voice while smiling and reaching out his hand he almost saluted Artirian but Artirian quickly grabbed his hand and then put it down. Artrian would then say looking at Arthur "Don't salute me in the open. I think none of these people knows about me and knows about my background and I don't like being favoured by these people. They are just power-hungry people who want to suck deep into power and soon backstab." Arthur would be startled and awoken by the certain words that Artirian said.
He would then come closer to Artirian and then said with a serious face while looking left and right "How come you can conclude that all while observing in the back." Artirian would smirk and laugh a bit while he sips from his champagne glass that is filled with wine. Artirian would then state as he opened his lips he would be cut by Rommel who was going to tap him from the back with a sudden jolt of his body Artirian would grab Rommel's hand. The three would look at each other and then they would look at Artirian.
Rommel and Arthur would feel bit weirded out by Artirian sudden movements and they think that Artirian has evolved to become a different person over the few months they all got separated from each other. Rommel entered a Blacksmith apprenticeship in the Moon Scar City and it soon grew he was able to wield different kinds of weapons. Meanwhile, Arthur invested his time in reading and doing research on some stuff regarding the academy and its doctrine and teachings mainly in command of infantry and cavalry.
But the tension would soon drop down as Artirian the same as Rommel would both hug in in a friendly way. They would give their hands and hugs but as they did that some of the people around them would look at how they were hugging each other. Artirian would always receive the tightest hugs because Artirian always leaves the group and rather not give them any messages when Artirian is going to journey without them.
But they still did not know that Artirian had travelled to the Coalition kingdom and became a Baronnett and he also met the famous General Thornwind and fought in many different kinds of battle. Then in a sudden change, the chandelier would low the light down the music slowly faded and the room became dark. Artirian who left his Bokken sword clenched his fist and he whispered for both Rommel and Arthur that something exciting would happen. And that is the "Reception"
Soon screams would "WAAAAAHH" and "RAAGHHHH" would be heard the place of the party has 5 huge windows and all of them would be shattered by unknown masked people. Soon everything changes into a good party into a mess and chaotic place to be therewith. Because the cadets did not expect something like this would happen. They forgot to bring one of the most essential things that a cadet has and that is a weapon to be able to fend off enemies in case you cannot bring the said main weapon.
Artirian, Rommel and Arthur would be some of the few left who were fist fighting the enemy. Artirian would be able to predict the enemy movement because of his core. He would feel the heat that was coming from his enemy so he knew where the enemy was and where he could punch and land a direct hit.
Meanwhile, Arthur would then be knocked over by a few punches and was tied and put a sack on his head. He was unconscious so he was not able to say help to Artirian. Rommel would be still kicking and punching the wind as he doesn't feel any presence then he would be knocked by someone giving a hard blow at his head. He was then tied and put a sack on his head.
The screams became silent. The room would only be filled with the sound of the slow music that died down earlier and now getting more exciting. Artirian would then try to give some few punch blows at the enemy in front of him but it was flexible and the enemy was able to block his jabs. Artirian would then be knocked by a sudden attack on the back because he was too focused on fighting what was in front of him. His hands would be tied and then the enemy would then put a sack on his head.
