Atticus and the rest of the division youths once again stood, each of them facing the massive black terminal.

But unlike before, where they had been waiting for their first division battle with all of them armored up, today was Monday, and it was time for each of them to attend their assigned classes.

They were all wearing their regular clothing, with many of them wearing brooding expressions on their faces.

None of them liked the thought of having to go to school and sit down in class, listening to lectures for hours.

But amongst the many who were sad, no one in the area looked as down as Nate. 𝑖𝘦.𝑐𝘰𝘮

If anyone should see his bulky form and his expression currently, it would be a major irony.

He was currently wearing a profoundly sad expression, so sad that should there be just a single drop of tears on his face, it would melt the heart of many.

One would think that someone had just died if they saw his current expression, but each one of the Ravenstein youths all around him knew better; he was only feeling this way because he really didn’t want to go to school. 𝑖𝘦𝑎.𝗇t

“Oh, would you stop acting like a child, Nate!” Lucas turned and said to Nate with a frustrated expression on his face.

Ever since they found out about the fact that they would each have to attend mandatory classes, Nate had been down cast the whole time.

The boy truly hated school.

Nate didn’t even respond to Lucas; his face still downcast, he turned his gaze to the side.

Atticus shook his head with a chuckle. “Are you ready?” he turned to Aurora, who was by his side, and asked.

“Yeah, I am,” she nodded her head in response. ‘It’s just a few hours,’ she thought, trying to cheer herself up.

Ever since they got closer in the Raven camp, this was the first time Aurora would ever do something without Atticus.

Of course, personal things and other normal and trivial things excluded, every single time they went out of the estate, it was always with him.

She was just so used to his presence it felt so odd attending classes without him.

Seeing Aurora was feeling better than before, Atticus nodded to took his gaze away. The rest of the students all waited, with many of them making small talks with each other.

The time passed quickly, and as soon as the time struck 10:30 AM, each one of their artifacts suddenly lit up, and everyone received a notification.

Atticus clicked on his artifact, displaying the notification.

Good day, Atticus Ravenstein. Your class LDSP- 001 scheduled for 11:00 AM is starting in 30 minutes. Please report to your camp terminal to get transported to your designated location.

As each of them read the notification, the ground around the black spire, made with the same material as the terminal, suddenly lit up in a bright golden glow.

They exchanged puzzled glances, uncertain about what to do.

Suddenly, Atticus sprang into action. Moving at a swift speed, he grabbed Nate by the collar.

Before Nate could react, Atticus effortlessly lifted him from the floor and threw him onto the golden light, leaving his scream echoing behind, “Not schooooooll!”

“Pfft,” and the rest of the Ravenstein youth burst into laughter at the sight of Atticus tossing Nate. They had anticipated that they would have to force him to enter the teleport and were glad to see that Atticus had done it already.

Atticus turned towards Aurora and flashed a smile, “See you later.”

“See you later,” Aurora responded with a small smile.

He then faced the rest of the group, nodding at them with a smile. Following the sparring session from the previous day, the other Ravenstein youths had grown more comfortable with Atticus.

“See you later, young master,” they all greeted back.

Without hesitation, Atticus stepped into the bright golden light.

By now, Atticus had grown completely accustomed to the surreal sensation that came with teleportation. He welcomed it even, especially after finding out that it helped him with increasing his numbers to unlock his space element.

After the few usual seconds, Atticus opened his eyes to find himself inside a… room.

‘Hmm?’ Atticus swept his gaze around.

The room wasn’t that large, only about 24 feet by 24 feet. But the room was completely pristine white, exactly like the advanced training room back at the Ravenstein estate.

Atticus’s gaze landed on the door just directly in front of him and instantly walked towards it, the door sliding open as he approached.

As Atticus stepped out of the room, he was met with a breathtaking scene.

Elevated within a towering structure, he found himself surrounded by transparent walls, offering an unobstructed view of the sprawling surroundings.

The colossal building he occupied was intricately linked to others, forming a circular pattern around an expansive garden.

The garden below was a vibrant tapestry of life. Various students walked around, engaging in animated conversations, laughter resonating through the air. Couples strolled hand in hand, adding a touch of warmth to the lively atmosphere.

It was truly like a campus.

If anyone unknowledgeable saw this scene, they would all completely believe that this was a normal school. But, of course, Atticus knew better than that.

‘Never allow what you see fool you.’

After a few seconds of admiring the view, Atticus turned his gaze away from it, instantly clicking his device and navigating to the oracle section.

He had no idea where he was and how to even get to his class.

Seeing the prompt come up, Atticus quickly inquired, “Where am I, and how do I get to class?”

It instantly responded,

You’re currently at the academy main campus inside the first year leader’s building. Your current classroom is on the second floor in a room with a door tag, 001. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the academy’s geography, I would suggest you walk to the end of the hall, where a full map is displayed.

Listening to the AI, Atticus started walking forward towards the end of the hall, intending to see the map of the academy.

The hall was quite long, and as he was walking, Atticus couldn’t help but notice many of the same doors he had come out of.

The interior walls of the building weren’t made of glass; only the exterior wall was made of see through glass.

But the hall was completely empty, with no other students or even adults in sight.

Undeterred, Atticus kept on walking, and after moving for a few seconds, he finally got to the end of the hall.

Instead of the dead end he was expecting, he was met with the hall continuing to his left.

But that wasn’t his focus; his focus was on the massive, large, detailed holographic map that was displayed on the wall.

It completely displayed the map of the academy or rather sector one in its entirety.

Atticus’s eyes quickly scanned the map, swiftly understanding the layout of the academy in just a few seconds.

The academy in its entirety was truly massive.

There were a total of five major areas in the academy, each forming a circle around the other.

The outer most layer of the circle, the area one would enter immediately upon entering the academy, was the forest. ‘Damn, they have an even worse naming sense than me.’

It was as though his katana could hear his thoughts; it immediately vibrated in intensity, clearly showing its dissatisfaction with the bad name.

Although it wasn’t directed at him, Atticus could also feel that the katana was subtly directing it towards him too, clearly for the useless name he gave it.

‘I really should come up with a better name,’ Atticus thought with a wry hint of humor, and the katana vibrated with intensity as though supporting this decision.

‘I’ll do it later,’ Atticus decided and focused his attention on the map, causing the katana vibration to weaken in sadness.

Atticus shook his head with a smile and continued looking at the map. The forest, which was the outermost layer, was extremely massive.

It was the area with the largest landmass and was the same place they had each done the entrance test when they entered the academy.

After the forest was the ‘first year region.’ It also had a massive area, and exactly like its name, this was where the first years were situated.

The next layer was the ‘second year region.’ Just like the first, it was where the second years were situated. The second year region had a smaller land than the first year, but it was still incredibly massive.

The layer after that was the third-year region, where the third years were located. And then the last and final layer was the academy’s main campus.

This campus was basically a city on its own and housed all the important facilities of the academy. This had been where the coliseum was located.

Atticus was currently in the leader’s region and the first-year leader’s building.

‘I see, so there’s basically a separate location focused on training only the leaders of each division. I wonder where the rest were transported to.’ Just as Atticus was about to check his device, suddenly it rang out and notified,

You have 10 minutes left for your scheduled class, LDSP- 001, to begin.

‘I better get there early,’ Atticus took his gaze away from the map and started making his way towards the elevator at the end of the hall.
