Arpious of the Planes

I wave mom goodbye as both of my sisters follow me. We were walking along the bottom of the cliff that Mom's castle is engraved on so we shouldn't be spotted by anybody.

Luna and Freya seemed excited but also sad at having to leave their moms. I was slightly sad as well but made sure not to show it since that would be pretty embarrassing. But what I need to do, is work hard and pass going to this… Academy? Is that what the maids called it?

I was confident in my skills since both of my moms taught me how to use my skills efficiently such as [Necromancy] and [Forbidden Magic: Medusa]. My favorite would probably be [Necromancy] since it seems the most natural and I can create an entire army if I wanted to.

Though it might've just been a quick session this morning, I got the hang of it pretty quickly and my sisters did as well. Luna's session with Auntie included various chains and utilizing spider legs that protruded from the ground.

Freya's session with my other Auntie was one of the longest since they barely had any skills in common besides a blue fire and some really sharp claws.

I do wish Freya's mom was my mom, she seems much nicer than my actual Mom. My bedridden mom is really nice but can be quite strict compared to my other mom who is just strict all the time.

I subconsciously started to glare at Freya which made her kick me in the leg.

"OW! What was that for!?" I shout.

"Stop glaring at me! It makes me uncomfortable!" Freya shouts as she continues to kick my leg.

"OW! OW! I'm sorry! It was by accident!" I shout, running ahead.

My sister chase after me with Luna joining in on the fun. For some reason, they were both much faster than me so I had no choice but to hold them down with [Summon: Basic Skeleton]. I'm pretty sure they had high strength, but if they didn't know the skeleton's weak point, they would never be able to kill it.

I used this chance to run as fast as I could, leaving my sisters behind.

…

As soon as I arrived near the massive white building, I released the skeletons but for some reason, my sisters were already right next to me.

"Alright, I give up… you win…" I say, raising my hands in the air.

"Good, t-that was unfair," Freya mutters.

"Yeah, don't ever do that again…" Luna says, giving me one last kick in the leg.

Where did my cute little sisters go? Now they are so aggressive… it might be because they just learned how to use their skills but still…

More and more kids start to flood onto the massive green field. Some had parents with them while some were starting to already make friends. I was going to wait until I chose my classes so I can make friends within those classes…

"I would like to welcome you all to the Academy of Twilight! My name is Aito, please call me Headmaster, Mister Aito, or Headmaster Aito! Please pick the one you prefer!" A high elf shouts from across the field.

I think I've seen him before… I can't remember when though…

"Once you enter the building, you will be greeted by all the teachers who will give you a sheet with the rules of this school. Then at the end of the hallway will be a place where you can register your classes! 3 classes per student and you will be given a dorm number once you receive a piece of leather with your classes on it!" Our headmaster shouts as cheers are heard from across the field.

"Now please line up in a single file line! Parents, we will have to ask you to leave!"

All the parents hugged and kissed their children goodbye as we lined up neatly. It took us a while to start entering the building, but when the line did start to move, I couldn't contain the smile that crept onto my face.

The line moved very slowly but eventually, we entered the grand white entrance that led to the inside of our school. Headmaster Aito kept the same smile on his face even as we walked past so I assumed he didn't know who we were.

That's great though since that means we don't have to stand out. I think all the attention might weigh down on my sisters so the least attention possible would be great.

I turned my head away from our headmaster and looked down the massive hallway filled with chandeliers and a red carpet. Everything was made from a white stone that practically shone in the sunlight. Many open archways allowed sunlight to flow in, warming the building and us.

Finally, there was a line of teachers on both sides of the carpet, greeting us. A dryad that glowed warmly was handing out a piece of white thin leather that had black writing on it. I was able to read most of it, but some letters I didn't understand so I had to use context clues to try and fill in the rest of the word.

At the end of the hallway were 2 other hallways that split off in opposite directions, but what we wanted were the 3 desks at the end. It took us a long time to get to the desks and when we did, I picked three of the 12 given classes.

"Swordsmanship… Hand to hand combat… Leadership… Thanks," I say after receiving the thin, white piece of leather with all 3 of my classes on it.

At the bottom was my room number which said "Boys Room: 5 - Shared Room."

My sisters were right behind me so it didn't take much time for them to choose their classes.

"What did you pick?" I asked both of my sisters.

"Magic Training, Species Logging, and Leadership," Luna says.

"Magic Training, Archery, and Leadership," Freya says.

"Wow, what's with the change in attitude. I thought you would be acting hyper as always,"

"Mom said we should act as civilized as possible," Luna says.

"Yeah," Freya agrees.

"Alright, just remember what mom told us, don't stand out," I say, walking to my dorm room.

…

I finally arrived at my dorm room. I don't know how many other students are going to be in there but I hope they give me an easy time… Mom said first impressions are necessary.

I take a deep breath in and open the door.

"Oh, our last dorm mate. Hello, my name is Luke," A student about as tall I said.

He had yellow hair and white eyes. His skin was pale white with his race being a fire harpy. He seemed like a cheerful kid so being friends with him wouldn't hurt.

"Hello, my name is Hades, I hope we can be friends," I say with a smile.

"I hope we can be friends as well… this gloomy guy over there is Noah," Luke says, pointing at a student a tad bit shorter than me.

He had wavy black hair and grey eyes that seemed bored. He was playing with an arrow in his hand and didn't even glance at me.

An amazonian huh… I haven't seen one until now. I guess I didn't pay enough attention to the students in line.

"Yo," He says and continues to play with the arrow.

Our room was massive and even had a second floor. The first floor was decked out with a kitchen, living room, and bathroom. The second floor is where we had our beds all lined up in a straight line.

tsk

No private room… whatever.

Noah who was lying on the couch grabbed his thin piece of leather with his classes. He then checked a black box that lit up into a white glow. Both Luke and Noah saw the glowing white box and exited the room.

"You should get to class as well," Luke says, speeding out of the room.

I looked at the rule sheet once more and saw some writing near the corner of the sheet.

"When the black box lights up into white, that means your class is about to start. All classes start at the same time… I guess I need to find my class now," I mutter, shifting my eyes to my other sheet of leather with my classes on it.

Room 25 for Swordsmanship…

…

I arrived at the swordsmanship classroom which was filled with about 30 students. Some were nervous while some seemed confident in their ability.

The classroom for swordsmanship wasn't a classroom, but more like a giant open dirt field. It was still within the school but this oval-shaped arena seemed a bit much for 30 students and a teacher.

I didn't know anybody here so I decided to try and make some friends while we were waiting for the teacher to arrive. It was a mixed class filled with boys and girls but I decided to aim for the boy groups since making friends with them should be easier.

"Hello-,"

"Welcome everybody to this academy's swordsmanship class. All of you are aspiring swordsmen and swordswomen so I hope you enjoy this class and maybe even learn something from it!"

I got cut off by a big burly amazonian who was tall and well built. He had black hair and his tattoos went all the way to his cheek. The final touch that obviously made him a swordsman was the massive greatsword resting on his shoulder.
