A laugh from an old man was heard from a group that currently in the northen gate of istara academy. "So in the end only this much that can join the field trip. Hahahaha". The old man start to laugh bashfully again.
"Those stupid musclehead that start it first sir." an a student with a red square emblem said while she point her gaze at an group of an armored teenager. "Just because they the one that get brawling techniue they act like they're the most best from us."
While the istara academy is renown for its scholar and its chivalry, the academy itself is consisted from a lot of departement that focus on its own subject, the departement itself then divided more within its own speciality. But mainly theyre divided into four general study.
The first is the knightly order. This order is focus at teaching civalry, the code of ethic from a knight. they teach what will makes a knight differ with a murderer. aside from their weapon handling and fighting technique. Their badge is a blue coloured shield that later have a weapon that each resemble their own choice weapon drawn inside. For example. A knightly order student that specialize using a sword will have blue coloured shield emblem with a sword inside as a badge.
The second is magus and artificier order. This second order is focusing on refine and finding a new way on using a special energy that called mana wheter using a device or using their own capabilities that few people blessed with. Their badge is a yellow coloured circle with a pentagram or a crystal inside. The colour of their pentagram or circle is resembling their main element study focus.

The two last is a general society research order and general science research order As like the order name, this both order focus is wide, the first is focusing on society. Like diplomacy, economic, history, and racial relation. While the latter is focus on machinery, weapon manufacturing, and anomaly in a world. Both of this departement have a red square emblem with a pic of a book inside. The only different is one have a pigeon pic atop the book and the other have a sun atop the book.
While each departement have independent structure, the still have relation and completing one with each other for they still need the knowledge of the other departement to perfecting their own focus.
"Ahahaha, please pardon my student. I bet he's just wanna show off some muscle to get to know your name. A female is a rare sight on our daily life" the old man says bashfully while he's wink-ing at his own student. " go apologize or a month of "special" training, choose now." An emphasize on the word "special" was feels strongly on the oldman tone.
"I... i... i... i..." a brown haired guys mutter an unclear stutter. With a raising up and down nostril. Seems getting more red as time passes.
"I'm sorry for the behavior of my friend" cut a blond haired guys. "My name is michael, please safe us from the special training. I'll make my friend says his apology properly later, and youll have a favor from us". He quickly add.
"No." The lady speak flat and quick.
"Uh come on, resolve this matter, just an apology. Not much loss". The old man add quickly.
"But sire..."
"What but?" Its easy right just one w..." the oldman suddenly stop while he sees the girl glare angrily while starting to tearing up at the brown haired student.

"Okay-okay, anything, no apology is fine, but, but can you at least tell my wife a "good" version of this little accident for me while we back" The old man says while look a little panicked and bashfull
"Uh,...."
....

After sighing the lady says "okay sire, its my own fault too, to get angry over an kid tantrum like this." the lady emphasize the kid word while looking at the brown haired guys. "So please pardon me too, and hope we get along for the rest of the trip". The lady continue while she bow a little.
"Thank you miss" a colour start to back at the oldman face. "You hear kids, Dont make more trouble for me kids" angry old gaze was pointed at the armored group "for now lets start the journey. We can get to know later when we reach the goddess statue to camp. You, arnold, take front guard position for your temporary punishment The old man says to the brown haired guys while he walk toward the back of the group.
Thus the group jurney is begun. Steady. In their way they passes two monument. Each time they pass the monument the group will stop a while. Which the oldman start to explain and the student will take a note
The first is a giant arch, about 6 kilometres from academy, made from a gate that a part of a once mighty wall.
The second is row of an ancient looking trees that planted within left and right side of their road that start to change into a stone pavement. The tree have a twisting complicated golden line. seven meter from this row of trees is a dense forest. A dark and a gloomy. Desolate and eerie.
The last is a female statue in a middle of clearing. This statue is covered with a moss that strangely cannot be removed. But still aura of ancient and magical was emanated from this statue.
"We stop here kids, prepare the camp and share your duty on your own". the oldman says while he move toward the edge of the clearing. "Oh and dont get out to far from the clearing. Remember. No more trouble. I'll go for half hour". The oldman half yell to make sure the student hear.

Macabre Mim
*Note: This story is on hiatus. I intend to pick it up again, but the mood of my life has shifted for the time being and I'm going to be working on a side project for a bit.* What would you give to live the life of your dreams? What kind of deal would you make? And when you were there, forced to stare your dreams in the eye and live them every day, how long would it be... before they broke you? Author's note: This is my first excursion outside the realm of villain fan fiction and I welcome feedback. The thing I've loved most about RRL so far is the potential for writing to be an interactive experience with excited readers. That said, also, the primary genre this is intended for is the blossoming realm of LitRPG. Namely, a slice of life tale in the manner of Grimgar or Re:Zero. So, likewise, I don't expect there will ever be a clear beginning-middle-and-end type of pattern to this story. It will likewise always be a bit more of a reactionary, exploratory novel into realms unknown - much like the 1800 travel-novel theme used by Jules Verne. Or, at least, that is my ambition.
