[Raven\'s POV]

June 30, 2080.

Tuesday, 2 P.M.

.....

Ting-!

I recieved a text from someone after meeting a certain individual outside the academy.

The place we held the meeting was not that far away from the Lunar, and I\'m already on my way back.

So I took out my phone and checked the text...

It was from Alec\'s crush, Lillen.

======

[Lillen]: You\'re request of a new room has been approved by the headmaster, and considering your strength and written scores... The room that was given to you is in the same dormitory as Alec and your other friends.

[Lillen]: And about your request to access the Lunar\'s dungeons, it\'s still in process, even though the headmaster approved, the other professors\' approval are also needed.

=====

"Looks like I would sleep in a different room tonight."

I mumbled with a smile after reading the texts.

Then I replied to Lillen.

=====

[Raven]: Thanks, I\'ll pay the favor back when I can.

[Lillen]: Then why don\'t you attend the welcome party we prepared for you guys tomorrow?

[Raven]: no

=====

After replying to Lillen, I started running my way back to the academy.

\'I\'m so excited to move.\'

I thought as I started circulating more mana in my legs and feet!

Bam-!

Swoosh–

***

I ran so fast continuously that I arrived in my dorm in under 15 minutes!

"Yuki! Levina! I\'m back!"

I exclaimed as soon as I entered my room.

-Kyuu!

-Welcome back!

Then Levina and Yuki flew toward me excitedly.

But they suddenly stopped and looked at my face.

-Why does it looks like you\'re excited?

-Kyuuu?

Then they asked me.

"What? For what reason do you think so?"

-Because you\'re grinning ear to ear like an idiot.

-Kyu!

Then Levina ans Yuki replied with a smug on their faces.

I immediately touched my face and realized that I really am smiling.

[Like an idiot.]

\'Shut up Sariel.\'

Anyway, I immediately calmed myself and looked at Levina and Yuki again.

"It\'s because we\'re gonna move into a different room."

Then I casually told them the reason why I\'m excited.

-Oh! Really?!

And it was Levina who immediately responded, she seems as excited as me!

-I hope it\'s bigger, so I can have more place to move!

She exclaimed.

"Yeah, I hope so too."

-Kyu!

Me and Yuki agreed on her.

"Anyway, we\'re gonna move immediately now so you guy, help me out."

-Kyu!

-Okay!

And with that, I started packing up with the help of Levina and Yuki.

Anyway, I might be excited, but I already predicted that my requests are gonna be approved, so I already packed my belongings last night.

And because of that, all we need to do is put my packed things in our spatial storage.

Ting-!

As we were doing that, I recieved another text, I don\'t want to stop from moving so I made Sariel read it for me.

[The text contains the location of your new dorm, and the academy\'s congratulatory.]

\'I see, ignore it for now and just send the location to Ruby and Keara. Tell them that I\'m gonna be moving.\'

[Got it.]

...

...

After less than 10 minutes, we finished packing everything up.

And I\'m currently headed to my new room!

Yuki\'s on top of my head, while Levina is in the chest pocket of my black polo t-shirt.

And after some time, we arrived in the dormitory where my room is gonna be!

I didn\'t ride a rapid train \'cause Levina might get found out, so I ran all the way here!

Being cautious is good from time to time.

Anyway, back to the dormitory...

-This is awesome...

"Yeah..."

-Kyu...

We were dazed when we saw it face to face, I always run all around the academy but I didn\'t actually try to appreciate my surroundings and the structures.

So looking at the huge dormitory now in front of me, I was quite overwhelmed for a second.

It was big, I remember describing the size of it as half of a football field, or roughly about 3,500 square meters!

The dormitory... It\'s a massive dome made of mirrors, giving it a futuristic appearance!

But I had enough looking, so I went inside... Or that was my plan.

"Stop."

​ A guard stopped me from entering.

"What is it?"

"Only high rankers and special individuals are allowed inside."

He said.

"Oh, I\'m gonna be moving here."

I replied and flashed my phone to the guard, making him read the text of notice I received from the academy about me moving to a different room.

Then after that, the guard looked at me from my head to toes.

Then with a scoff...

"You\'re good, but I don\'t like your eyes, are you disrespecting me?"

He unreasonably stated, acting all high and mighty.

\'Fuck... Another extra trying to mess with me.\'

I thought.

Looks like he doesn\'t know me yet.

[He\'s <B-> rank, so he\'s basically stronger than the main characters right now.]

Sariel said.

"I\'m a guard on training, I\'m your senior."

"So always wow your heads when you meet me."

Then the guard said to me with a disgusting grin.

\'He\'s annoying...\'

I thought.

\'Levina.\'

Then I called out in my mind.

-\'Yes?\'

\'Let\'s announce our arrival.\'

-\'I would gladly just for you.\'

Then after that, looking at the smiling guard in front of me.

"Now."

I mumbled.

Swoosh–

Swoosh-

And right after that, I activated <Monarch\'s Presence> to the max!

I also let my mana run wild and now I\'m releasing a raging mana all around me!

And at the same time, Levina let out all of her majestic presence!

She didn\'t use mana though as she might get found out because we have different mana colors.

"Keuk...!"

Levina is <A+> rank, and I\'m currently <E-> rank.

Also, the effect of <Monarch\'s Presence> gets stronger as time passes by.

So the pressure me and Levina is releasing together is equivalent to someone <S-> or <S> rank!

And the guard in front of us couldn\'t endure it as he immediately lowered his head while sweating like a dog!

Looking at him...

"Move, bitch."

I commanded.

"Y-yes sir!"

And the guard immediately obeyed my words.

I looked at him from head to toes.

Then with a scoff...

"Good dog."

I muttered.

***

[Eden], the dormitory where Alec and other main characters are staying.

This dormitory is named after a paradise, because it\'s actually a paradise for students!

But it\'s only accessible for high rankers and special people in the Lunar.

All the students staying here are strong as fuck!

They\'re all within the top 15 of their respective grade level!

And most of the tenant here is competitive, they\'re always eyeing on the other tenants!

Most of them are also arrogant as fuck!

And this place, is where Raven is moving in!

"Boring... I hope something interesting happen."

Adelle mumbled.

"Yeah..."

And Curtis replied.

They\'re currently inside of Alec\'s room with Aoi, Eve, and Blake.

"Are you sure it\'s okay that I\'m here?"

Then Blake asked.

"Yeah, you\'re my guest."

Alec replied to him with a smile.

"But the guard earlier hates me."

Blake responded, he\'s a bit down.

"He\'s just an asshole."

Eve then said.

"Yeah, he\'ll get in trouble because of that sooner or later, don\'t worry about it."

And Aoi followed.

Their words made Blake actually happy.

"Thanks guys!"

So he replied to them with a smile.

"Though, imagine Raven meeting that guard."

Then Blake jokingly added.

"Then Raven would be in trouble because he\'s arrogant too."

Curtis casually replied.

"Why?"

Blake asked him.

"Both of them are arrogant, so they\'ll be fighting for sure, but Raven is weaker."

"Yeah."

"Yeah..."

"Haha..."

Curtis explained, then Aoi agreed, followed by Eve.

While Alec just awkwardly laughed.

"Fair point..."

Blake then mumbled.

"But for some reason..."

He added, then...

"I think the guard would be in more trouble..."

Adelle finished his words

"..."

"..."

"..."

Which made everyone silent, they don\'t say it, but they also think the same.

"Haha, just jokin–"

Swooosh–!

"!"

"!"

"!"

Adelle was about to laugh the idea off.

When a sudden familiar presence crept up to everyone!

Making them flinch!

Everyone looked at each other for a while...

"The fuck was that...?"

Then Curtis mumbled and ran to the door.

The others silently followed him.

And when they all got out...

They noticed that all tenants of the dormitory are outside of their rooms.

They saw Lillen, Lana, Cooper, and Cenric.

They saw some familiar people and strong seniors.

And all of them are frowning while looking at one another.

"Everyone felt it..."

Eve mumbled.

And the others agreed on her silently.

Swoosh–

""!!!""

And that\'s when everyone, inside the dome, felt the presence once again!

Everyone got wary and they looked at the direction where they felt it was coming from.

And as time passes by... The presence is getting stronger!

"Someone is coming..."

Lillen mumbled.

"And they\'re strong..."

"Yeah..."

Cenric and Lana responded.

While Cooper is getting nervous for some reason.

And that\'s when...

TAP!

Swooosh–

An audible step echoed throughout the area!

Everyone heard it.

And it was followed by a stronger wave of the presence they\'re sensing!

After that...

They saw a figure walking forward confidently with an overflowing elegance!

And that person is...

""Raven Obadiah?""

Alec, Blake, Curtis, Eve, Aoi, Adelle, Lillen, Lana, Cenric, Cooper, and the others who know the figure mumbled one name in unison.

Raven heard it...

He looked around and saw everyone paying attention to him.

That\'s when everyone noticed that there\'s someone behind Raven.

That someone walked forward and everyone saw him.

"It\'s the guard..."

"..."

Blake stated in disbelief, while the other just silently looked at the guard.

He looks nervous and quite scared...

Then, the guard opened his mouth.

"A NEW TENANT HAD ARRIVED!!!"

And the guard announced with a loud voice.

After that, everyone saw Raven smile and waved at them.

"Hello."

Then he greeted.
