Wearing a black dress, long black socks and a pair of black boots with black gloves.........

........ she looked around the place and went to a bench near a tree to sit and read a black book.

While reading her book, a person suddenly sat next to her also holding a blue baggage. She looked at the person who sat next to her, she has super long blonde hair and purple eyes.

She wore a dress that looked like a noble's. She was panting heavily so it's obvious that she was running and hurrying for something

Blonde girl:Your a new student here aren't you?

She looked into the blonde girl and spoke to her....

Black haired girl:Yes I am.

Blonde girl:I knew it, it's my first time seeing you here. Don't worry I'm new here too, I've been here a several times so I've seen mostly all the student's faces here. By the way, my name is Kiarra Larian Citrine Urnea, the super elite rank singer,nice to meet you....

She extended her hand towards her offering a handshake, she didn't have any choice so she accepted it and went back on reading.

Kiarra:Anyway, What's your name? I really want to have friends on my first day.

Black haired girl:Ylona........... Ylona Elainne Ortlinde Deaunville.

Kiarra:Deaunville...... What a unique name you have.......

Ylona:Same to you........

She said while closing her book..

Kiarra:Well, my mom really likes to make unique things such as this bracelet that my mom gave me.

Ylona looked at the bracelet and saw a silver bracelet with a blue five leaf clover inside a green crystal.

Ylona:Unusual your mom was able to find a five-leaf clover

Kiarra:yeah..... I know especially----

~~~Kkkrrriiinnnnggggg~~~

Ylona:You were saying?

Kiarra:I was almost gonna get to that but too bad the bell ring. Anyway, let's go now, the ceremony's about to start.

She said while grabbing her baggage and heading towards the gymnasium Hall. Then she followed her strolling her baggage and holding her Umbrella.

Ylona:Weird.......

They are now at the hall waiting for someone to speak in front. Then a woman arrived in front of the stage,she has short blonde hair with purple eyes, she wores a black coat underneath a white long-sleeved polo, black skirt and black heels.

Principal:Hello everyone to Elistein Academy. I am Alpha Citrine Eurhaile, the principal of this school. I welcome everyone who stands before me, I am so joyful that all of you students decided to study in my school. Before I let you all go, I have here the members of the student Council along with their president Vanessa Alleijon Acanthus. They will provided you all the information you will be needed throughout the year of stay. No need to come in front because they will be the ones who will hand it out to you......

The staffs went down the stage holding papers and passing them to each student in the hall. Then after they give all the papers, they exited the hall and went back to their rooms.

Principal:As I was saying earlier, now that you all have your papers, I will proceed to one more important announcement. Now I know you are here because we invited you all to go here, but not because of your luxury and wealth, but because you are I trusted in an important mission given by the government of Orlandon. But unfortuntely, only few students are allowed to participate in this mission, so later, we will have a assassination test, that will help us to choose who will be the students that will participate our very important mission and will also go to our SE class. Now I hope everyone will cooperate and help us in this event, plus even if you try to hide your abilities, it won't work cause everyone in this school has already the information about your abilities. Now, you may all go, let yourselves explore the while campus, and remember, tomorrow, 1 pm Sharp, don't be late.

~~~Timeskip~~~

At the girls dormitory........

(Picture above)

Kiarra:I wonder if we have the same room....

Ylona:We can't allow that to happen, every student, girl or boy, has their own room.

Kiarra:I know....... But I wish our rooms were close to each other so that I can visit you anytime.

Ylona:But not always, I am busy you know.

Kiarra:I know that, you are a gambler, you are always full booked.

She looked away at Kiarra and started finding her room, her room number is 319, on the third floor. They are now at the elevator (A/N: What? Can an author at least have some imagination? Yes!) of the dorm and pressed "3".

Kiarra:I didn't know your in the third floor also.....

Ylona:Just how long will you stop talking?

Kiarra:Sorry, but you'll have to wait for me to sleep...... Anyways....

Ylona:Shut. Up.

She pull down a card, but not just any card, it was a card made from thin metal and it is able to cut anything. It has a special case that enables you to put it down safely to avoid harming or breaking anything.....

Kiarra:This is final!!! I promise I will stop.

She put back the card on her case and looked at the door of the elevator.

Ylona:Speak. And Hurry up.

Kiarra:I was only gonna ask what is your room number, I'm curious....... Please?

Ylona:*Sigh*319 is m----

Kiarra:Yessss!!!!!!!!

Then she tried to pull the card again but then Kiarra stopped her.....

Kiarra:Sorry, Sorry, but I just happy. Mine is 320. We just near each other's room.

Ylona sighed and continued walking until she reached her room. Kiarra waved goodbye and told her that she will wait for her later, Ylona agreed and opened her door with a key card that was given along with the paper. She went inside her room and closed it. She looked inside her room and explored while putiing her suitcase down.

The room has separated rooms for dining and sofa, bedroom, and bathroom. The living room has a sofa good for 6 people, a large flat screen TV, a small drawer with a picture frame inside, a small table between containing books and magazines below it and a vase full of white roses. There is also a dining table next to the sofa and a small fridge in case of hunger. The bathroom has a bathtub and a shower, separated from each other, then a cubicle of course, a container of shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, soap, etc. near the faucet and mirror. Lastly, the bedroom. It has a queen sized bed with two big pillows, and two small pillows. Near it is a small drawer with a big mirror in front, it contains jewelleries, cosmetics, a white brush, cologne, powder, and a box that has nothing in it except a silver key with blue gems over it.

After she put all her things to where she wanted to put it, she headed outside the dormitory and walked around the place, she headed at a garden full of flowers and tree, she also notice the garden maze on it and the small pond on it. She went to a table and sat on the chair. Then, a maid suddenly went towards her, holding a tray.

Maid:Hello Madame, can I offer you anything on this beautiful day?

She said while giving her a sweet smile.

Ylona:A cup of tea is enough.

Maid:As you wish milady, it will be served in just a minute.

After the maid left, she instantly held a book and read it while waiting for her tea. Just as she flip the page of her book, a woman suddenly arrived and walked in her direction.

Lady:May I?

Ylona:As you wish........

Lady:Thank you.

The lady sat down and it just so happens that the maid already arrived with Ylona's tea.

Maid:Here is your tea milady......

Ylona:Thank you.

Maid:Your welcome, and what would you like, principal Alpha?

Alpha:Ms. Alpha is just enough, I would like the same and add two appetizers to it.

Maid:It will be served in a minute, miladies.

Alpha:Thank you.

The maid left the two of them and while Ylona is reading her book, The woman spoke in front of her.

Alpha:So, you've really agreed.

She put her book down the table and held her cup.

Ylona:Why wouldn't I?

She said then sipped her tea then put it down on the coaster.

Alpha:Well I know you've been busy with your schedules so I thought you wouldn't have time for this.

Ylona:But now I'm here, so nothing will happened, plus, I've already cancelled my schedule for the whole year.

Alpha:Well then, congratulations on your day off.

Ylona:I wouldn't say that a day off.....

The maid arrived and was holding a tray with a cup of tea and two cakes with a silver fork.

Maid:Here is what you have asked, Prin--I mean Ms. Alpha. Is there anything you need to add?

Alpha:No, nothing more, you may go now.....

The maid then bowed at us then walked away........

Ylona:Where did you get her?

Alpha:Oh, you mean Sarah, I got her when I was searching for the gemstones.

Ylona:Sarah......... What abilities does she poses?

Alpha:Well, to tell you the truth, it's just an ordinary ability, she has an ability to sense a person's movement, she can easily know where your location is, that is also the reason why she appeared so sudden when you just arrived here.

Ylona:Hmm......... *Sipping her cup*so, what is that you want me to do?

Alpha:Well......

She said while putting her cup down and taking a bite at the cake.

Alpha:.......The job is pretty easy, all you need to do is to stop Izard and The seven sins of Esaim....

Ylona:Seven Sins...... Let me guess, you want me to find all of them, and destroy them, then the chosen will do the rest.

Alpha:Good guess my dear, but almost the whole content.........you see, we found out that two of them are in this school, we haven't known yet who they are, but we are finding a way to track them. All you need to do is to help us to look for them so we could ask them about the information regarding the unknown phenomenon that we are occurring right now.

Ylona:Always the talker....

Alpha:But also a predictor..... You know my abilities. Remember, Izard is not easy to beat. How else did we do back then if we were not able to open the holy gods and goddesses?

Ylona:I already know that, but then.............. We still have to do it, anything just to stop this matter.......

Alpha:And 'that' is the only way to do it..........

Ylona:..............

Alpha:It's been more than a century since the war happened..... But darkness still lurks around the corner. But remember, we have the weapon to stop them.

Ylona:but there are only a few of them, it's still not enough.

Alpha:That's why we are doing this, to ensure that they will be worthy enough to defeat him.

Ylona:I guess........ Your right.

.

An hour has passed and they have already finished their meal.

Alpha:It's now past 12, well then I should get going, I have more things to do. Remember, tomorrow training's at 1, don't be late?

Ylona:When did I became late?

Alpha:Just reminding Dia.....

(A/N: Dia is the nickname of Ylona as her position indicates "Queen of Diamonds")

~~~Timeskip~~~

The next day.........

They are now gathered at the school fields to start their training. All of the students wore their PE uniforms that was included in their wardrobe.

Alpha:Hello again everyone, I see that all of you are interested in the mission that the government of Orladon has sent to us, but I must say this, only few of you will be joining us in our mission. So I hope you will do your best and became part of this important mission. Our training is composed of five challenges, each challenges will composed of points, the first challenge will earn you 2 points, second challenge is 3 points, third challenge is 5, fourth challenge is 8 points and the last challenge is 10 points, the students with the highest points, will be the students to accompany us with the mission, Elistians, are you ready?

All:Yess!!!!!!!!

Alpha:Well then let the games begin. The first challenge is a challenge underwater, water mages have an advantage in this challenge and can have the opportunity to succeed, but I know the others can do it. So, all you need to do is to find this star right here.......

She said while pointing to her glowing hand...

Alpha:..... But it won't be that easy, one challenge is equivalent to a day, the place that we will be heading is composed of sea monsters and creatures that was sent and captured by the officers of Orladon, it wasn't easy to catch them, some are loose and others are out of control. You have to find atleast maximum of 50 stars and mimimun of 20. The students to finish the challenge until sunrise will move on to the next challenge. Now you may now enter the portal next to me so that we can head to the destination.

The students, along with the teachers, head to the portal and in no time they've reach the destination, it was a large ocean, white sands all over the place, the sun is shining brightly and the trees and wind and flowing in the same movement. The students are starting to prepare for the first challenge, after 5 minutes of exercising, all of the students prepared their weapons and magics.

Alpha:On my count..........

One..............

Two.............

Three.............

~~~~Bbbbaaannnngggg~~~~

The gun fired and all of them went as fast as they can to reach the sea.

Ylona is now at the sea near dozens of corals below. She went through it and luckily, she have found three stars beneath it. She quickly put it one her pocket and continued on searching. While she was finding the stars Kiarra is now in vain in finding the stars.

Kiarra:Oh man, where are they, I won't make it to the next round if I don't have any stars........

While she was looking for the stars, she noticed how the fishes moved, it was like they were running away, she looked at the place and then suddenly her eyes widened.

Meanwhile, Ylona now has 48 stars on her and was still trying to find more. While she was looking around, she notice bubbles coming from her left side, she looked at the direction and..........

Kiarra:HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!

She ran into Ylona and hugged her tightly.

Ylona:What's wrong??

Kiarra:B-b-blood.............. T-there's blood in t-that direction........

She pointed to the place where she came. They both run to the direction Kiarra pointed out and swim further. They've reach the place where Kiarra came earlier and saw blood all over the water. Ylona moved further and further, Kiarra followed her back and landed on an old building under the sea.

Kiarra:Woah....... That's...... A building........ But in the sea????

Ylona:Interesting...

Kiarra:How is that possible?!?!

Ylona:Your breathing and talking underwater, mind asking me the same..........

Kiarra:Oh, your right...... Sorry......

They went inside then looked around the place. From the looks of it, it was a building that falled down because of an accident.

Kiarra:W-what are We doing here, Ylona??I-its so dark in here......

They continued swimming until reaching a d dead end. They tried to go back but they were lost. Ylona pressed her ring and appeared a transparent glasses. She looked around the sea and saw nothing but walls and windows of the building. While she saw busy looking around, Kiarra saw something glowing behind the walls of the building, she went through it without informing Ylona, as she swim through, she smiled in surprise. She found two stars at the bottom of the building.

Kiarra:Wow!! 15 stars, Lucky me!! I just need....... 5 more........

While she saw finding more stars to complete atleast 20 Stars, she saw something moving on her right side, she looked into it and then saw.............

.

.

.

.

.

Ylona is now searching where the track of blood went, when she heard a loud boom, she looked to it and then noticed that Kiarra was missing.

Ylona:Kiarra....... Kiarra..........

Then she remembered the loud bang earlier........ She swim quickly towards the direction where the sound was heard.

She saw Kiarra unharmed, she sighed in relief and saw that she was holding a silver arrow with gold and green highlights. She aimed her arrow at the monster in front of her.

Kiarra:Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!

She let out two shining arrows and pointed it at the center of the monster......

Kiarra:"Dual Strike!!!"

...... Then the two arrows earlier became thousands and then hit directly to the monster, the monster screamed loudly and then falls down. But he is still not defeated, it stood up and started to attack Kiarra. Kiarra dodged it but suddenly, its arm reached her feet, but good thing Ylona swimmed to her direction and slashed the arm with her black and purple scythe with a large amethyst on the center part.

Kiarra:Ylona!!!

Ylona:Go back, I'll handle this.....

She nodded and then swim towards the shore. Now that's left is Ylona and the monster. She held her scythe and was ready to attack the monster, then she let out a loud shout to the monster.

Ylona:"Silent Cross!!!"

Her scythe then slashed the monster x mark style and then finally defeating the monster. The monster turned to ashes and finally leaving her all alone in the sea.

.

.

.

.

She was now at the shore walking near a tree when Kiarra called her..

Kiarra:Ylona!!! Did you defeat it?!?!

Ylona:*Nods*

Kiarra sighed in relief, but her voice turned into a disappointed tone...

Ylona:What's wrong?

Kiarra:I-its just..........

She started crying in front of her,but she was covering her whole face. Ylona understood her and then reached for her pocket. Kiarra looked it It and was surprised in what she saw... It was 5 stars that was added to her so that mean she has already 20 stars....... Kiarra picked it up and then looked at Ylona..

Kiarra:B-but........

Ylona:It's okay, I still have 42 more.....

Kiarra:Thank you Ylona!!!!!!

She hugged Ylona tightly, and then started spinning around......... Ylona tried to let go but couldn't do it so she let her do what she wants....

~~~Timeskip~~~

It was now 3 am and all of the students gathered at the shore, infront of them is the principal with her maid, Faith. Next to them is a large screen that was showing nothing but the school's symbol.

Alpha:Now I now everyone is excited and nervous in who will be the one who will proceed to the next challenge, but before that I would like to thank you all for accepting our offer to join us to the mission. Now here are the results of the first challenge.

The screen then opened and then showed the rankings of the first challenge:

Ylona got 39th place while Kiarra was at...

Kiarra:100?!?! I'm in the 100th,so that means........ Yes!!!!!! I passed the first challenge.....

She was spinning around happily while shouting so loud......

Alpha:I'm so glad that you all did your best but suddenly, there are some who will have to say goodbye:

•Sarah- 0

•Francis- 2

The 10 students with Ms. Lorraine then left the beach and headed to the school campus.

Alpha:As for the rest, we will take a 1 day rest. It is a good time to relax and also to train for the upcoming challenge, you can go now to your tents and have a wonderful rest.

~~~Timeskip~~~

The next day.........

Students:BEACH!!!!!!!

The student quickly run into the beach like wild animals and swimmed into the ocean.

Kiarra:Yey, beach, are you happy Ylona?

Ylona who is busy reading her book while grabbing her black fan and swing it, spoked.

Ylona:Getting all hooked up on our second day of training, no thank you.

She was wearing a black off shoulder dress and black gloves, she has the same umbrella and fan just like on the first day of arrival. She also has a black chocker with a sapphire on the middle.

Kiarra:Hmp..... Your no fun at all.

Kiarra on the other hand..... Was wearing a two-piece swimsuit. Her tops are Green colored with white ribbon on the shoulder part. She wore a green and white skirt with brown and white sandals, she wores a light green hat with three white rose and a green lace on it.

Kiarra:Why can't you have some fun, I don't even care if it's the second day, all of us arrived two weeks early before the current start of the first day. Now come on, let's swim..

Ylona:Not interested...........

Kiarra:Oh come on, Pretty please?

She said while giving her a puppy eyes....

Ylona:No....

Kiarra:Please??

Ylona:No......

Kiarra:It won't hurt swimming in the ocean....

Ylona:No I don't want to go........

Kiarra:Come on now, planes Ylona......

Ylona:Hmmmm....... No...

Kiarra sighed in defeat and then just sat beside her....

Kiarra:At least buying some juice will be helpful, promise I will do you anything you want in exchange.

Ylona:Are you so sure about that??

Kiarra:Yeah, yeah, so please.

She said giving her another puppy eye look.

Ylona:*Sigh*Fine......

The Kiarra smiled at joy....

Kiarra:Thank you, Ylona, You're the best..

Ylona:Whatever.........

She went to a vending machine and picked the juice Kiarra wanted. While she was picking the juice from the machine she noticed a sudden sound from the bushes, she got curious and followed the sound, she ended up in a silver fountain with a beautiful woman statue in the middle of it, it has long hair and a outfit that looked like a goddess. It also has a mask that covers only her eyes and a wing-like accessory on both sides of her hair, other than that, she also has an angel's wings on her back. Suddenly, a weird image appeared in her mind making her shake her head.

While she was looking at the statue, she saw a person hiding in the bushes

Ylona:Show yourself.

She calmy said and then then saw a boy wearing a black cloak, he saw hiding his face so he couldn't see his face clearly.

Ylona:Who are you?

The boy looked at her and then both of their eyes met, Ylona widened in surprise, the person has two eye colors, the right of his eye is a blue colored eye and then the left eye has two colors on it, one is red and the other is violet, it has a crack the separates the colors that made it more peculiar, she cant clearly see his hair because of the cloak. The boy widened in surprise also and then started to run away.

Ylona:Stop right there!

She followed the boys direction as fast as she could but run to a dead end, she had no choice but to go back to the shore....

Kiarra:Where were you, its been 5 minutes already, I'm so thirsty.....

She quickly grabbed the can and drink all in it.

Ylona:I just saw something, nothing personal....

Kiarra:But next time..... Hurry up.

Ylona:I'm not your maid you know....

Kiarra:Whatever.....how about we play cards..

Ylona:Do you even know how to play?

Kiarra:Of course, I'm not just good at singing, but also in playing cards.

Ylona:Well, let's see about that.

Kiarra:Game on..

While they were playing, Ylona can't help but wonder who was that person earlier, he has the most weird eyes she have ever seen, but then she looked at the place where she saw and then focused on what she playing.

"Who is that person earlier?"
