Chapter 9: New Life

Darell walked through the door and was immediately transported to another realm.

He looked around and saw the whole realm was filled with darkness but this darkness was invaded by small orbs of light that consisted of different shapes and sizes. 

Darell wondered why he had a feeling of comfort enveloping his body but he didn't reject it and enjoyed the euphoria he was feeling.

"Beautiful, isn't it? "

Darell didn't take notice of the voice that he heard behind him and just subconsciously nodded his head.

A split second later, realization dawned on him and he instantly turned around and took a fighting stance.

He tried to look at the figure but all he could see was a giant orb of light glittering in front of him.

" Not a bad response speed for someone your age. "

The giant orb glittered as it spoke and after a slight pause continued.

"You are a lucky lad to have met me."

Darell scoffed at his statement.

"Do you know who I am?"

Darell shook his head and said," Well, all I can see is the orb of light in front of me."

The orb glittered as if it was nodding.

"Even if I show you my real figure, you wouldn't recognize me."

Darell said," Is this part of the test?"

The orb of light dimmed and after some seconds it shone.

"Test?....Oh!"

Instantly, another orb of light appeared and from it came out an unconscious middle-aged man.

Darell realized it was the examiner responsible for the test.

He said," What do you want?"

Darell clenched his fists and was ready to attack it at any time. He knew the person hiding behind the orb was an extremely powerful person as his skill failed to work on him indicating that this individual was far stronger than anyone he met in his life.

Even though he couldn't win against him if the person decided to finish him he could do it by lifting his hand, he wouldn't go down without fighting back.

The orb glittered as it noticed Darell's expression and spoke.

"Perhaps it was Fate for us to meet here, young lad.

Don't be afraid as you don't have anything valuable enough for me."

Darell scoffed at his words and rebuked him.

" There is no such thing as Fate. A crippled person with no hope may become a powerhouse if he/she stumbles across a supreme treasure. Such encounters change a person's 'fate'. One must work hard enough to overcome their problems."

"hahahahahahaha"

The orb laughed magically which irked Darell.

"You are indeed the old man's legacy."

Darell was surprised and decided to inquire further.

"Who?"

However, the orb remained silent.

"When the time comes, you will learn the truth."

As the orb finished speaking, it engulfed Darell whole.

Darell panicked and tried to get out but he couldn't do so.

"I hope you succeed in what you are trying to achieve."

Darell could feel a ton of knowledge flood his brain. It was overflowing with knowledge. He grabbed his head as he was experiencing unbearable pain.

It went on for a few seconds, but Darell couldn't bear it. His eyes rolled upwards and he fell unconscious.

Darell woke up and found himself in a room that had a table and chair. An old man was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed.

Darell got up and checked himself. When he found nothing was wrong, he sighed in relief.

After a few minutes, the old man slowly opened his eyes and looked around. When his eyes fell on Darell, he smiled.

"Ah! Darell Rogers. You have passed the test. You can go and meet Instructor Walter on your way out. He will explain further details."

Darell was looking at him with a curious gaze and understood that the person had wiped his memories and replaced them.

He didn't know what he wanted from him but he didn't feel anxious as he didn't feel any hint of harm from him.

Darell nodded and went out of the door. He was greeted by Emma's cheerful face. She had a bright smile that could make any man's heart tremble.

She excitedly hugged his arm and proudly declared " Now we can live together as newlyweds in the academy."

Walter poured cold water over her dreams as he reminded her.

"Sorry to say but members of the opposite gender can't stay together in one room."

Emma's reaction was priceless. She looked at Walter with utter disdain.

Walter noticed her expression and coughed a bit.

"Ahem...Let me remind you of the rules and details about this Academy.

We have different dorms for girls and boys. Of course, as per your parent's instruction, we have already settled Emma, Ariel, and Lilith in one room together while Eric and Darell will live in one room together.

The students are divided based on their year in the Academy with third years being the senior most and first years being the freshers.

Also, there are different types of tournaments and events that will be held for the students. Each of these events will be held with strict rules and these rules must not be broken by any of the students no matter what position their family holds in the noble hierarchy. If anyone breaks the rules, they must expect strict action from the Academy.

You will be given special status cards with which the teachers will monitor your progress and grade you based on your performance in the tournaments and events.

You will have magic classes from morning to afternoon and combat classes from afternoon to evening.

Perform well in these classes and you might get a special badge for your performance.

You have different halls where you can get your necessary items and types of equipment.

Lastly, don't forget that even though we have so many rules in the Academy, there are always some students who think they are above everyone else. So, stay away from them as much as you can."

Everyone listened to his speech with utmost sincerity and nodded their heads.

Walter clapped his hands and said " Alright, it's time for you to check the Academy.

Good luck as you will need it."

He walked his hands and they went out of the hall.

Another Instructor brought them to their respective rooms where they put their belongings.

Nobody wanted to lie down and rest as everyone explored the Academy with reverence and couldn't help but be excited.

Darell smiled as he looked at the Academy and he mumbled " A new life ".

High up in the sky, was a figure with jet black hair that looked majestic, his body was covered with total darkness and small orbs of light glittered as though they were stars in the night sky looked at Darell and muttered to himself.

" I have kept our promise, old man."

The figure dissipated and vanished without a trace.
