Ark and James entered the auditorium in style. However, there was nobody to see it cause they were the first to enter.

Ark clicked his tongue.

"We should've waited a bit more. It's boring to be here all alone."

James pulled out his phone.

"It's we're only one minute early, why are we the only ones here?"

"Teleportation remember?"

"Oh yeah."

Ark held his hand to his forehead and scanned the room.

"At least we get first dibs on seats."

"True."

Ark headed towards an inconspicuous spot when James tugged on his uniform. Ark turned around and gave James an exasperated look.

"What is it now?"

"Lets go sit up there."

Ark followed with his eyes where James was pointing at and sighed.

"Idiot, that is where the noble sit."

"Why do they sit so high up from us?"

Ark let out a sneer of disdain.

"Because nobles think it is beneath them to be in the same place as commoners. Especially the typical noble ladies. They have bitchy attitudes."

James frowned.

"That's not very nice..."

Ark rolled his eyes.

"Trust me, I work at a part time restaurant as a waiter. The noble ladies come in all giggly and they order their food. After they are done, they wave around their dainty little hands and cry with their nose up to the ceiling. They ask "Now which family do you come from?" I answered them "I have no family" and they immediately turn away and giggle to themselves before throwing a silver at me while saying "Commoners are satisfied with a silver, no need to give them gold." Hmph, the nerve."

James sighed.

"But, not all of them are like that."

"That's true but the majority are like it, so I don't want to sit up there."

James scanned the empty room once more before pointing at seats in the front.

"How about there?"

"I don't want to be in the front."

Then find a seat for yourself, we can split up.

Ark left James and went to the very back of the room, near the stairs leading to the noble floor.

He was about to sit down when the doors opened with a boom and a stampede of students came in.

Ark panicked as the students pushed him away from his seat and into the back wall. Ark eventually got out of the crowd and found peace on the stairs. He was about to take a break when he heard a snobby voice resound out.

"Hey you kid on the stairs, your a noble right?"

Ark tried to answer but before he could the student waved it off.

"Who cares, just go up the stairs already. Your holding up the line. By the looks of it, you are probably some sort of recently promoted Baronet. Hurry up and climb."

Ark felt like crying as he was forced up into the noble floor.

Shit, I'm going to be ostracized if I'm found out.

(Dusk) my eye is twitching, what did you do Ark.

Ark quickly ran to the corner of the floor and tried to act as inconspicuous as possible.

(Dusk) WHY THE HELL ARE WE IN THE NOBLE FLOOR! WHAT HAPPENED WHILE IBWAS GONE?

I might have accidentally been forced up here...

(Dusk) ACCIDENTALLY?

(Dawn) According to the student version academy handbook, while it is not against the rules, commoners should stay away from nobles due to risk of getting attacked by a supremacist noble.

Great, just great.

(Dusk) I'm going to disconnect our minds. What pain you suffer has no more relation to me.

Y-you traitor...

(Dawn) I will begin to shut down system. I bid you the best sir.

Not... not you too...

Ark sat there all alone and hoped that the speech would be over quick.

Finally a tall man with long dark brown hair entered the auditorium and went up the stage. The man was filled with confidence and charisma, as if the world was his best friend. He was also very handsome.

The man put his hands behind his back before speaking.

"Hello everyone, I am your new headmaster, sadly, the old headmaster has died due to an assassination while on his way to visit a friend. That friend was also found to be murdered."

Whispers sprouted from everywhere as everyone discussed the new price of information they received.

"However, do not worry. The old headmaster was incompetent and growing senile. His mistakes will not be repeated in me."

Woah, he must have something against that guy... oh wait, it was because the headmaster seat was take from him by the former head. No wonder the new head has something against him.

"I promise my upmost ability that I will protect you students. I swear on my mid rank 6 power."

The students gasped and Ark couldn't help but join in. The new head was stronger than the old head. At least theoretically.

"In order to do this, I will change a few things about AEA."

The head let out a smile.

"Number one. You will be required to go to a Danger Zone with an instructor two times a week. This doesn't count the ones you do on your free time."

Not a bad rule.

The crowd let out shouts of annoyance at this rule while some kids grumbled about it being a waste of time.

"Number two, combined drills will be abolished."

Yes! No more unfair matching.

The freshmen let out a cheer that echoed through the room.

"In it's place will be tournaments. One for same year students and another for academy championship."

Ummm...

The cheering immediately stopped.

"Rule three is that the different treatment in nobles and commoners will be abolished. Different treatment will only be determined on talent. Any student using their background shall be severely punished."

This caused the most mixed feelings out of all of the rules. The commoners let out tears of joy while the nobles loudly expressed their dissent.

"Lastly. There will be a theory test that is mandatory for everyone to take. Strength is good but knowledge is power."

FUCK YEAH! I LOVE THIS!

However, the rest of the students seemed to hate this abnormally. They got on top of their chairs and screamed. It was one of the rare occasions that commoners and nobles had the same attitude.

Ark sighed.

How is theory hard? It's just memorizing stuff. But then again, I am a genius.

The head let out a snort of disdain and Ark felt as though his mouth had glued shut. He looked around and said with a mighty voice.

"If you got any problem with my rules, then beat me in a duel and I will change it. Any challengers?"

The room went silent.

The head nodded his head as if satisfied.

"Good, now I want to ask, is there an Ark in here? He is a male and has black hair."

Fuck.
