Chapter 26- Cloud Academy

“Cloud Academy was one of the largest Academy in the world of Fantasia. Their base of operations is located in the Cloud Kingdom but the actual academy is on a separate island, protected by layers of layers of concealing spells and barriers.

Students are protected from monsters roaming the skies, seas, wilderness etc... The Cloud Academy do not use the normal currency such gold, silver and copper. They use their own currency which is the form of points, or formally called as Academic points.

This Academic points can be achieve by doing quest or missions posted in the Quest Halls. Different rank missions, will give out different amount of points. For example a G rank mission will only be worth five points but a D rank mission can be worth five hundred points or more.

G rank missions can be done on your own without any team mates, but missions higher and above are usually very difficult and will need a team to complete. Students at the Academy will usually form a team to complete higher level quest but the points will be divided between the whole team equally.

You can also achieve points by fighting at the Academies arena. You can get there by using a teleportation circle located in the quest halls and it will automatically send you in the reception area, where you can organize a fight. Academies Arena is open to all of the Academies in the whole of Fantasia.

So Cloud Academy students will not be the only one there competing. Academies such as Varia Academy, Vongola Academy and many more. Anyone can battle in the area, even Enforcers.

You will be able to gain points by betting with an opponent. In the arena, battles consist of one versus ones or a team battle between two different team on the same rank.” I read the pamphlet out loud. I look at the pamphlet again see if I miss any vital information.

“I want to fight in the arena!” said Dean excitedly. Looking at me with sparkly eyes.

I simply rolled my eyes “You have to get stronger first. You need to use your points to buy some good spell books or skill books. Which path are you going for anyway? The light mage path or the light warrior path?” I ask him. Learning skill books and spell books at the same time is not advisable because the amount of time you need to learn one higher rank skill book or spell book. Learning both will just make you a jack of all trades master of none. Meaning your essentially just a clown with parlor tricks. Useless!

“I’m going for the warrior path. I like to get down and dirty.” Smirk Dean.

“Whatever man. Do whatever you want. How many points you got anyway from that exchange thing?” I ask, a bit curious.

Dean then look at his ID card “About 3200 points.”

“Man you’re rich. I only got 500 points.” I jokingly whined.

Dean then snorted “If you wanted all the cores in the island, I have no doubt that you are able to do it. The only problem with you is that you are unbelievably lazy.”

“Not true! I do some stuff that interest me!” I justified.

“Yeah. Only once in a million years.” Dean rolled his eyes at me.

Our ID cards then glow brightly for a second. “Looks like we have been assigned to our student groups. I reckon you should be in the Light Element group? And you will be living in their compound?” I ask him. After confirming the group I was assigned in.

Damn it! That head master wasn’t joking, I was assigned in the enforcer group. Oh well it’s not like I’m going to do any work. I’ll just laze around in my expensive house.

Each Enforcer is given their own house which is located in the special compound made especially for us. One of the privileges they get as well as the authority to teach a lesson to those not obeying the Academy rules. The Enforcers are basically the police in this Academy.

“Yeah! I should be going now. Have fun being an Enforcer.” Grinned Dean as he set off to go to his assigned room.

“Whatever, I am not doing it. I’ll take the house though!” I shouted back.

After Brooks the head master left as he set off to take care of other duties that a head master have. Dean saw us talking and was curious so I told him.

At first he was shock and hysterical but he just shrugged it off as ‘If it’s Vectre anything possible’. Didn’t even ask how or why. Sigh, I might have desensitized my friend.

My ID then glowed again and I received a voice message in my head from the Headmaster. The student ID can be used as a medium to send messages mentally, which makes easier for students to contact friends or ask for help when they’re injured and can’t move and in need of rescuing while doing a dangerous mission.

“Damn it!” I lightly cursed. The message was about tomorrow’s official welcoming ceremony for the students and introducing the new Enforcer. The Sixth Enforcer to be in fact. But in order for the other students to recognize my authority, I will need to fight other Enforcer’s to display my strength. This also helps establish the strength order within the group.

“Oh well!” I grinned evilly. I will totally thrash the other Enforcers, it will be a good warm up. If I’m being force to join a group. I might as well be the leader of it. That way, I can still get on with being lazy.

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I laughed manically inside my head.
