Two days had passed since the argument, and Rivan's footsteps echoed down the corridor. The atmosphere in the dormitory was tense because neither he nor Noah was willing to back down.

Rivan stopped in front of the library, determined to earn first place on the monthly exam. He picked up a few books and sat at a table in the corner.

"Well, Rivan the bookworm is back," he muttered softly, full of spirit.

"Isla said the exam will be divided into two parts: Comprehension and power," he mumbled, opening a book.

"The power exam is a combat test between students, while the comprehension exam is a test of brainpower—in other words, a test for smart people. As a smart person, I should take the comprehension exam too, but to defeat that arrogant Young Master, the power exam is enough," he said, nodding his head.

He seemed to be trying to convince himself. Rivan's finger paused, and he whispered softly. "To increase your power level, you must understand the meaning of power."

  • "You're so annoying."

    "Channel your power into the crystal orb," said Mr. Dante, the instructor of the training class.Rivan drew a slow breath as the orb floated before him. He poured his power into it, but the crystal remained still.Even after several attempts, the orb didn’t budge. Disappointed, Rivan turned to the side and watched Isla’s crystal dart around in every direction.He walked over to her and asked, “How did you do that?”“It’s easy. You just need to go swoosh, then swish, and blam!” Isla replied, waving her hands around.Who could understand such an absurd explanation? Talia rolled her eyes, certain that Rivan wouldn't understand."Look! Mine is glowing. You were right, Isla. This is easy. Thank you,” Rivan exclaimed enthusiastically.Talia reflexively whipped her head toward him, her eyes widening. Her calm expression cracked instantly. Without meaning to, she shouted, "How is that possible?"They both looked at her at the same time, making the girl’s face flush red with embarrassment over

    “Do you want to go together?” Rivan asked his roommate, Noah.Noah only glanced at him briefly before looking away. The earring in his left ear swayed with the turn of his head.Without responding, Noah walked off."...Maybe not," Rivan murmured quietly.A faint, heavy sigh escaped him as he closed the door and made his way to class.For the past three days, since he first met Noah, Rivan had tried every possible way to get closer to him.Throughout these three days, Noah had never been seen during the day. He only returned at night. Not that Rivan cared.He simply didn’t want to spend four years of school in an awkward atmosphere.Room D2.Rivan paused for a moment, staring at the sign. This would be his classroom for the next four years. Unlike ordinary schools, Aegis Academy divided its classes into several categories:Room A was for geniuses.Room B was for Resions with notable potential.Room C was for ordinary Resions.Room D was for Resions with unique abilities—or rather, thos

  • Aegis Academy

    "Remember to contact Mom at least twice a week. Okay?”Rivan nodded in understanding.“Why not every day?”“Do you think your mom isn’t busy? She can’t listen to you ramble every day,” Elena replied without thinking.Rivan narrowed his eyes and a smirk formed on his lips."You're jealous, aren't you? Because I got accepted to the school of your dreams?”“Hmph.” Elena huffed in annoyance."Just wait. Once I become a Resion, I’ll get into this school and surpass you.”"Yeah, yeah. Keep dreaming, little lady,” Rivan teased, poking Elena’s forehead with his fingertip.I hope you stay an ordinary human, Elena.Rivan chuckled softly at his sister’s irritated expression."Enough! Stop arguing," their father said, massaging his temples. He was exhausted by his children’s constant bickering.He patted Rivan on the shoulder and spoke firmly.“Go and chase everything you desire. Don’t be afraid. Remember why you chose this path. Rivan, I’m proud to have you as my son.”Their mother stepped close

    The pale white ceiling had faint patterns, and a dimly glowing chandelier hung from it.Rivan turned his face away when he heard the soft whisper of the wind seeping through the window cracks."Where am I?"A sharp pain throbbed in his head. He vaguely remembered a man claiming to be from the Aegis Division coming to that place. If Rivan recalled correctly, his name was Nathan Leonce."I think it's best if you lie back down," a voice said.Startled, Rivan turned and saw a man sitting beside his bed, reading a book."Who are you? Where am I?" His muscles tensed, ready to strike. His blue eyes sharpened.The man held up an insignia—a deep blue, round shield with three curved lines across its center. Beneath the shield was a pair of silver wings spread open, guarding a small globe.Without looking up, the man replied calmly, "Nathan Leonce, Aegis Division. You’ve been unconscious for three days. We’re in a hospital right now. So relax and focus on recovering.”Rivan slowly lowered his gu

    Cycle 3Rivan ran through the ruins of the houses. His breathing was ragged and his eyes darted around frantically as he searched for his family.His whole body froze, caught between heavy breaths and sheer terror."Ahhh...!" A scream of anger and despair mingled with the Echoes' growls and delighted roars.Red blood slowly trickled through the cracks of a fallen wall and dripped to the ground. Beyond the rubble, black-scaled monsters with gleaming red eyes and grotesque shapes feasted.The wind blew softly, clearing the dust and revealing the gruesome scene before him. Six Echoes growled in delight, celebrating their fresh meal.Rage flared in his reddening eyes. Rivan sprinted forward, gripping tightly onto an iron rod he had picked up from the ground."Why?! Why do you keep taking them from me?!" he shouted, swinging the rod.BANG!Rivan’s body flew backward and crashed hard into the rubble. He coughed up blood. His pajamas were filthy with dust and cement and smeared with red stai
