22 Entering Limitless Academy

Standing in the bathroom, admiring his appearance, Bellator, dressed in his school uniform, wore sleek blue pants. He also had a blue blazer with golden lining on the edges, complementing his golden eyes.

'B-rank charm is no joke, is it?' Bellator thought, smiling.

"Bellator, hurry up; you'll be late," Beatriz said as she knocked on the bathroom door.

Leaving the bathroom, Aurelia, also dressed in her school uniform, sat and ate breakfast.

"Aww... My babies look so cute; let me take a picture," Beatriz said, using the Z-Watches camera.

Aurelia and Bellator took multiple pictures as a jovial energy filled the room.

After finishing breakfast, Beatriz gave Bellator a kiss on the cheek as she said goodbye to her children.

'I won't see my family for a while; I'll be really busy with school and getting stronger,' Bellator thought, feeling sad.

As he walked Aurelia to the bus stop, she looked sad, tears visible in her eyes.

"When will I see you again, big brother?" Aurelia asked as she looked at Bellator.

"I'm not so sure myself, but as soon as I get the chance, I'll be here before you even know it. I'll even buy you a present," Bellator said, kissing Aurelia on the cheek.

Aurelia's bus picked her up, and as another bus approached, a different air could be felt. This bus was way more modern than the previous one, bearing the insignia of Limitless Academy.

Getting on the bus, it was empty, with Bellator as the only passenger.

'Figures; most people in that school are filthy rich. Why would they take a bus?'

As the bus flew to District 0, the district solely for Limitless Academy staff and students, a look of amazement could be seen in Bellator's eyes.

'This whole place is my school,' Bellator thought, surprised.

The school was as big as a whole district, with fewer than 40,000 people living there. Malls, swimming pools, amusement parks, mansions, gyms, training grounds, gravity rooms – Limitless Academy consisted of everything.

Students could be seen arriving in expensive vehicles, all trying to make a grand entrance.

'Well, school is certainly going to be interesting,' Bellator thought as he watched everyone enter.

Getting off the bus, Bellator instantly attracted attention – both from the girls who blushed at his appearance and the guys laughing at the kid on the bus.

Heading towards the auditorium, Bellator took a seat as a huge stage came into view.

Sitting on the seat, the principal, a man in his early forties with short, neat, night-black hair and glasses, wore a black suit that complemented his hair. His purple eyes watched over the students, uninterested – an SS+ rank named Rectrix Virens, 303 years old.

'Wow, looks can be deceiving,' Bellator thought.

Next to him was the student council president, a world-shattering beauty with the same black hair and purple eyes as the principal. A girl with a beautiful figure, boasting an A+ rank in only her third year, the strongest student of Limitless Academy and the great-great-great-granddaughter of the principal, Livia Virens.

Next to her was the vice student council president, with white hair complementing his grey eyes. Boasting a height of 6 ft 2, an A- rank student in only his third year, and hailing from the 7th ranked guild in the human continent – Bellator's half-brother, Lucius Arctic.

'So that's him, my brother. Well, I give it to him; he's definitely good-looking, but he can't compare to me,' Bellator thought as the entrance ceremony began.

'None of the main characters are here; they just got here and are already abusing their privileges,' Bellator thought, knowing the main characters were chilling in their dorm rooms.

As the principal began the speech he had repeated for the past 200 years, his monotone voice filled the air. Even without a speaker, he could be heard talking.

"I welcome you, new students, to Limitless Academy, a place where your potential is limitless. We have gathered prodigies from all over the human domain and..."

At first, the 2000 first years listened with keen interest, but after half an hour, students started falling asleep as his boring speech continued.

"Hey, doesn't he look like Lucius?" a girl said, looking back and forth at Bellator and Lucius.

"You're right; I see the resemblance. Isn't he cute?" a girl seated next to her spoke as a red hue covered her cheeks.

Ignoring all the gossiping, Bellator watched the entrance ceremony as it finally came to an end.

Endless ringing could be heard as, at the same time, all the students received a notification on their Z-watch.

[All students head to the reception to add your biometrics to the system and receive your new watches.]

Hordes of students started walking to the reception, and Bellator, not knowing where he was going, followed the crowd.

After 30 minutes of walking, the students all arrived at the reception.

"This school is unnecessarily huge," a student said upon arrival.

As a long line of 2000 students stood in line, some tried to cut by using their family name to move forward.

One student, after cutting through 300 students, finally arrived by Bellator as he spoke.

"Move," the kid said, expecting Bellator to move quickly like the others.

"No," Bellator simply responded.

"Don't you k-" the kid spoke, trying to flex his family name before being interrupted.

"Nope, and I don't care. Didn't you listen to what the principal said? Your family name holds no power within these walls," Bellator responded without even looking at the kid.

"How dare you," the kid said as he raised his fist.

'I've only been here for a few hours, and the third-rate villains already appeared.'

"So what, you're going to hit me? Then what, we get called to the principal's office, I walk away scot-free since you instigated, and mommy and daddy hear what a bad son you've been. I don't care what family you're from, but they can't have a higher reputation than Limitless Academy itself," Bellator said, not batting an eyelid.

The kid, hearing Bellator's reasoning, scoffed as he silently stood behind Bellators.

Grunts and moans of anger could be heard now and then, but Bellator just ignored them as he finally reached the front of the line.

A beautiful receptionist spoke as she looked at Bellator.

"ID," the receptionist asked, giving her his ID. She looked at it as she took his biometrics.

"Room 305, 4th floor," the receptionist responded.

"Your Z-Watch and storage ring," she asked, taking out her hand.

"Don't worry; you will get it back every time you leave the school premises," the receptionist said as she took his Z-Watch, replacing it with a different one.

"Just know it operates as both a Z-Watch and storage ring; everything inside is monitored by the school, and we can see everything you do on there," the receptionist said, throwing him a sidelong glance.

"Yes, thank you," Bellator said as he used his new Z-Watch to find directions to his room.

Finally arriving in his new dorm room, Bellator sat on the bed as another notification came from his watch.

[Student: Bellator Arctic]

[Class: D]

'Fuck, I should have seen this coming,' Bellator thought as he got undressed and went to sleep.
