Reporting In

"Hello elder sister, my name is Gloxinia. I'm here to report," Gloxinia said politely.

Liu Yuxin was a bit surprised when she sized up the little boy in front of her. He looked to be about 7 or 8 years old, but he was actually a new student here to register. Since he definitely had an academy's recommendation, this meant he was actually just nine years old!

Although he was young, he still had a very pretty appearance. That's right. Liu Yuxin had to use 'pretty' to describe this boy's appearance. He had pinkish-red hair and long eyelashes that even made her a bit jealous. In front of this pretty boy, she couldn't help but be at a loss as her face cramped up a bit.

"Hello, my name is Liu Yuxin. I'm a first grader at the Eastsea Advanced Academy and I'm in charge of receiving new students this year. I'm your senior sister here. Come and fill out this form and afterwards, show me your recommendation letter from your elementary academy."

Liu Yuxin passed a form to Gloxinia.

Liu Yuxin watched as Gloxinia filled out the form, and couldn't help but read out loud as he did so, "Gloxinia. Nine years old. Graduated from Glorybound City's Red Mountain Elementary Academy. Rank 28 Attack-Control system Soul Master. martial souls: Basquias, Fairy Wings. Ah! You have twin martial souls? And what's a Basquias?"

Gloxinia nodded and responded, "Basquias is just a blanket. No need to think too much."

Liu Yuxin smiled sweetly, "To be able to reach rank 28 at your age with a martial soul like a blanket, even with twin martial souls it truly isn't easy at all."

Finishing the form, Gloxinia couldn't help but reminisce to a few months ago, when he had used the Head Key to take a look at the different system types so he could know which one he was.

In the end, he coulnd't decide and went underneath 2 of them, Control and Power Attack.

The Control system definition is a soul master that excel in controlling the various aspects in combat, and Gloxinia can do so with Basquias Form: 0.

The Power Attack system definition is a soul master that excel in dealing great damage, and basically has great vitality. He has Basquias Form 1 and Form 2 for great damage and the Fairy King Bloodline for vitality.

Handing Liu Yuxin his filled out form and recommendation card, Gloxinia stopped thinking about things that have already happened.

Liu Yuxin looked over Gloxinia's recommendation letter before stamping it and handing it back to him along with a small metal placard.

"Wear this metal placard around your neck as it's proof that you've been admitted to the academy when you get to the gates. You still need to go check-in and receive your supplies. Get on the bus behind me and we'll take off for the academy once a few more students arrive."

Gloxinia thanked her once again and greeted the others as he walked over to the big bus.

An upper grade student from Eastsea Academy who stood beside Liu Yuxin gave Gloxinia a glance as his mouth twitched. "Yuxin, where did you find such a talented kid? He's already at Soul Power rank 28. He is barely even 9 years old! Even with twin martial souls it's impossible to have that much Soul Power already right?"

Liu Yuxin stared at him wide eyed. "Are you an idiot? I just met him too, how would I know!"

The Eastsea Academy's bus was exceptionally wide and could hold fifty people. There were already some on the bus. Some of them were his peers, while the others were adults. These were clearly parents who had come to accompany their children to report.

A trace of loneliness flashed through Gloxinia's eyes. Even if his mental age is much higher than his peers, he still had parents in his past life! How could he not wish to see his mother and father one last time? Even if this is a wish come true, a parent's love can't be forgotten even after death!

He sat on a seat by the window and peered through to observe the unfamiliar city as he tightly hugged his arms. This was where he was going to live from now on.

Gloxinia closed his eyes and rested.

Gloxinia quickly fell asleep in a dazed state. When the bus began making its way to the academy, Gloxinia woke up and looked out the window.

The bus was already full. Everyone else was accompanied by their parents, leaving him the only one who was sitting alone.

He watched as the scenery outside of the window changed to stores that lined the streets. The bus was travelling amongst an endless stream of vehicles. Urgency and the scent of steel permeated the atmosphere. Everyone on the streets were bustling about. At the very least, it was countless times busier than the streets of Glorybound City.

A lofty building slid into view after the 20 minute long bus ride. In front of them was a high wall.

"We've arrived at the academy. Please get off the bus now, everybody." A familiar voice came from the front, drawing Gloxinia's attention. It was Senior Sister Liu Yuxin who had been sitting all the way at the front. She greeted all of the students, along with their parents, who had come to report in.

When Gloxinia hastily got off the bus, Liu Yuxin instantly recognized him as this junior brother of hers had left a profound impression upon her. "Ah that's right. Gloxinia, come with me in a moment."
