Ch-14

I apologize for the late chappy I had a hectic week this past week.

I might turn off a lot of people with this chappy.

***********************************************

Melio is now sitting down in front of Esme.

Hera & Diana brought him back with them.

Esme is scolding Melio for not running away with her sisters.

Melio looks at Hera for help; however, Esme gives Hera THE LOOK.

Esme sits on Melio's lap and grabs his head.

"Melio, I need you to take things seriously." Esme looks deeply into Melio's eyes.

Melio stares deeply into Esme's eyes.

"I thought I was. " Melio said.

"Darling, you wield a sword, yet you aren't a swordmaster nor have any sword skills. You have great power, yet you don't know how to bring it out.

Diana has a plan but.

Melio, I want you to know that I love you." Esme kissed Melio; Melio's eyes are wide.

He responded to her kiss, then Melio sensed something.

Esme's lips tasted a little too sweet.

Esme gets off Melio; she looks at Melio and sheds tears.

Diana walks behind Melio; her hands slowly start to glow.

Melio can't move, can't speak; Melio can only watch Esme tear up in front of him.

Then his vision slowly gets dark little by little.

"Melio, I will be sending you back in time. It would help if you had more time to familiarize yourself with your abilities, the killing squad will not only go after you but everyone related to you. Also, SSS-rank isn't the final ranking level; there are two other levels.

The killing squad and I are above SSS-rank.

I can't tell you more than that; it an oath everyone who reaches the SSS-rank peak has to make.

Melio, you will maintain your rank, power, abilities. On the downside, I'll lose two ranks, but that is fine. As long as you reach SSS-rank by the time you are 21." Diana's last words, Melio didn't pay full attention at all.

The last thing Melio paid attention to was his wife.

{The soul of a Monarch Activated!}

"Esme, you'll become mine again." Melio's body disappeared once the white light completely covered his body.

Melio's last word shocked everyone.

He wasn't supposed to talk, move, or anything while under this spell. Yet, he spoke his final words to Esme.

Esme felt her heartbreak once he disappeared, but her heart was relieved that he chase after her once more.

(A/N: Time to fix my story with the famous Plotarmor! Time travel!)

Melio soon wakes up and finds himself in his old room when he was 15 years old.

'Wait, this is where the old me lived at?' Melio thought to himself as he slowly gets up from bed.

'Status check.'

Melio shakes his head.

He gets up, a flash of his memories for today appears.

'So, today is my first day at the academy? Mmm, I wonder if I can meet them again.'

Melio starts to get ready for the day.

Melio Pendragon lives alone in an abandoned manor. This mansion is the house of Pendragon; he is the last of the bloodline. This was the last thing the pendragons had left which his drunken aunt and uncle couldn't sell before their death.

The reason why Melio didn't stay to live here because of a gang called SharkFang.

His uncle was in debt and owed them half a billion due to his gambling debt.

They collected the house & left Melio in the streets.

Melio is going to have to pay off this debut to keep his family home. He has about three months before that gang appears.

Melio is currently wearing the academies all-black suit.

The academy is a good five-minute walk from the mansion.

Melio is walking & many eyes have been checking him out, of course, for different reasons.

Because of his tall, handsome, and cold looks, the girls can't move their eyes away from Melio as he was by them; Melio has the Aura of a Monarch leaking out, making those males stay alert as Melio walks towards school.

Melio arrives at the academy; when he enters right away, he sees the freshmen being lead to the battlefield. At the same time, the other grades are being led away to different areas of the academy.

Melio follows the freshmen group.

Then in the area, there were teachers and squad leaders.

The squad leaders are graduates that return to the academy to help out their juniors.

Many of the squad leaders are hiding their identity under a cloak.

All the freshmen sit down and slowly quiet down for the Academy's Headmaster has appeared before us.

"Welcome to All Elite Academy! I am the HeadMaster Elizabeth Star. I am here to tell you, boys and girls, a few things..." Elizabeth starts talking about the normal school rules.

Then she pauses.

"Now, this where we are different from other academies. If you don't rank up by the end of the school year, you are expelled from the academy; if your grades are below a 2.5GPA, you will be expelled from the academy; if you fight and kill your fellow student, you will be expelled. If you fail three missions/quests, you will be expelled.

We don't accept failures; we don't accept excuses.

Don't be sorry, don't feel ashamed, Be better, Be greater than anyone before you.

We are our gods; we chose our fate.

This is your time to spread your wings and make your own destiny.

The Present and the future rest on your shoulders.

May Kami have mercy on your soul!" Elizabeth was blunt with us.

She didn't sauger code her words; she didn't hype us up or put us down.

Elizbeth gives them the reality of how the world will work once they leave the academy.

Once you become an adult, all the cute bullshit you once said as a kid or teen won't work in the adult world.

"Now, I'll be calling your ID number; you'll place your hand on this white crystal ball and show us your status. If one Squad Leader chooses you, then that's who you are stuck with for the rest of the year.

However, if two or more choose you, then you are allowed to choose between them," Elizabeth said; then she started to call students up one by one.

Melio slowly zones out; the only thing that Melio is thinking about is Esme's teary face.

He made an oath never to make her cry, sad, or hurt her. Yet, that oath he made was broken because of Diana & those after him. Melio believes those who snitch and break promises aren't worthy of being a man.

"ID # 42069666, Please walk up. ID # 42069666 please walk up."Elizabeth keeps on calling that number.

Next to Melio, a person is sitting down who notices that Melio is zoned out and jabs Melio on his arm to bring him back to reality.

Melio looks to his right; it was a bold boy who jabbed his arm.

"Bruh, they have been calling you for the last minute." The bold teen said to Melio.

Melio thanks the guy, he starts to walk towards the arena.

'Show off or not?' Melio is fighting with this inner demon.

Many people will choose not to show off and hide, but Melio needs to grow stronger fast; it's better to gain friends than unnecessary enemies.

Melio arrives in front of the crystal.
