On a beautiful sunny day, wind blew softly, rustling the leaves. People going on about their life.
On this day, a particular place was overflowing with activity. Air thick with excitement and nervousness.
Today was the entrance exam of the International Hero Academy. Inside the campus, the Alexander The Great Hall was bustling with activities of the students that came to partake in the entrance exam.
Students ranging from the age 18 to 30 years old. From various races and classes.
The hall was a one storey building. Fifty meters high. White colour with four massive pillars at the front and a gate that had no door.
Students were going in and out while some waited outside.
Inside, the space seemed even bigger. With rows of columns stretching endlessly. The inside was white and the ceiling looked like it was obscured by white mist.
Most of the space inside were empty with how massive it was. Students chatting and walking around like game NPCs.
There was nothing they could do. There was already a batch under examination.
The students mostly sat on the column bench and kept tab of the ranking shown on the board as they chatted.
The atmosphere was lively.
On a specific column bench, from where the gate was visible, three young looking students sat with their phones out. Typing aggressively. And their eyes wandering through the hall. They had messy black hair. Black eyes with glasses over their face.
Their gaze secretly checking out the girls inside the hall. Gazing at them briefly before returning to their phone.
[I'm Cao!!]
[DiddyTrainedUnderMe: Bro!! Did you see that girl from vermilion bird race!? She looks so fucking hot with her feathers and shit!!]
[ImDiddy: Which one? There are many. But did you see the group of pretty girls that just came through the door!? All of them are top tier!!]
[ImCao!!: Idiots!! Your standards are too low!!! The real top tiers haven't even appeared yet!! Did you not see the list of participants this year!? Just how many hotties from big clans are there!? We have seen nothing!! I personally like the heiress of the Sakamo clan bro. Just looking at her gives the vibe that she is my type. Cheerful, mischievous and FUCKING SEXY!!!]
Three students shared their thoughts on girls like sharing secret information of nations. They used their phones to chat because they knew that if they chatted out loud, finding even a dust of their bones would be a miracle.
They weren't stupid perv- I mean gentlemen!! They were smart!
Ren, Itsuki and Tsukasa, three childhood friends came to try their luck and bath their eyes in the Heavenly sight of beautiful girls before they failed and had to leave.
But somehow, they passed the written exam and now were waiting to partake in the physical exam.
They chatted with each other and shared their thoughts on the girls that pleased their eyes.
Suddenly, Tsukasa, named [ImCao!!] In the group chat noticed a group of three coming through the gate. Making his heart skip a bit.
[I'm Cao!!]
[ImCao!!: BRO! SHE ARRIVED!! SHE ARRIVED!! MY SAIKA ARRIVED!!! LET'S GOOOO!!!]
[ImDiddy: Calm down bro. Look. There is that super handsome guy with them.]
Seeing his friends message, all three of them turned to the group and looked closer. There was indeed a guy and another girl with Saika. The girl had flowing green hair like Saika but unlike Saika's bright blue eyes, She had serene purple eyes that had the trio feel like they were being pulled in by some unforseen force.
They stared like hypnotised before she looked their way.
'!!!'
The trio quickly snapped out and looked down. Heart pounding, they were sweating cold sweat.
The moment the girl had looked at them, they had felt as if their head was sliced half.
'Neved again...'
All three silently swore to never look at the women of strong clans.
But they still couldn't help but be curious who the guy in the group was whom, the Sakamo heiress was being overly friendly with. She appeared in public two days ago!! And she already has a boyfriend!? Tsukasa silently cried in his heart in both fear and pain.
The trio looked at each other, nodded then slightly looked up. The purple eyed girl wasn't paying any attention to them. She is just walking behind the duo with her hands on her Katana. Like a vigilant guard.
Then they shifted their attention and looked at the guy.
... and they instantly regretted it.
'Fuck... why is that guy so good looking!?'
'... why is the universe so unfair...?'
'...'
All three of them had different reactions but one thing was slightly clear that the guy is good looking. Too, good looking in fact. So much so that it made them want to cry because of the unfairness.
But they shallower their bitterness because they could do nothing about it.
They just kept their head down and chatted about their creaking heart.

Alex, Saika and Aika had arrived two days ago after a three day travel. The trip was magnificent and full if discovery for Alex.
They stayed in the same hotel. Even shared the same room.
Alex had no complaints. Kept man tells no complaints.
-Said a wise kept man.
Today, Alex and the others had taken their written exams and came to the Physical examination hall to take Physical examination.
'... just as old man Preganos has said, the name Alexander wasn't rare nor common...'
Alex couldn't help but remember Preganos's words. And Alex felt he was right.
"Alex! Let's go sit over there! The ranking board can be clearly seen from there! I wish they showed the battles as well! It would have been more interesting!"
Saika said excitedly. She was practically dragging Alex with her pulling his arm. They both sat in the place, looking at the ranking.
10,000 students were taking test at the same time and this was the 4,567th batch of students...
'Is the time accelerated here as well? Can't say. I'm too poor to buy a Watch... wait! I have a fucking phone!! Damn... I'm so stupid.'
Alex took out his phone. Beside him, Saika chatted with her usual marry expression. Not carring if anyone was listening or not. Aika, who sat beside Saika, seemed like she had activated her Automatic Nodding skill as she was nodding at whatever Saika said.
Alex focused on the time and was surprised.
[Time Diluted Zone]
'Wow...'
Alex couldn't help but marvel at the technological advancements of this world. This kind of little details weren't shown in the anime. Alex also noticed that there were no signals.
'Wait! So this is what the ad mentioned when it said Pokkel 17 Ultra-Super-Duper-Pro-Max can get and send signals from anywhere!... I see... I think I need to get one of those...'
Alex looked at Saika and thought if he really was being treated right as a kept man... she didn't even get him a new phone!!
But no matter! He has his customer of prophecies, so there was no need to worry. Just a bit of time and money will flow in on its oowwwwn~~~.
Thinking that, Alex felt better and focused on the matter at hand. His batch, batch No.4568 is the last batch. And all the world renowned geniuses and some who got through connections are intentionally pitted together. The rest are mobs.
'I'm one of them aren't I? ... doesn't feel so great to he treated as such...'
Alex was not happy.
Since he was treated once-a-century genius back home. But he can do nothing about it until he proves himself otherwise.
He then looked at the three goofy looking normies few pillars away. Chatting on their phone while some times looked up.
'Heh~ pathetic bunch. Using an ancient technique like that to share their perverted thoughts? Insu-? Infusugiabrial? ... whatever that word is. But! They look familiar!'
Alex looked at them intently. Eyes narrowed. Saika still chatting and Aika looked like her brain had already given up on braining.
On of them looked up and immediately flinched, looked down and started to type ferociously.
Alex looked away. They looked like they were about to shit themselves. And he remembered who they were.
'They are the friends of the protagonist aren't they? How did they even passed and made into... wait! This might be different. This is real world! And there was no Lost One in the anime either. Let's just hope that the world doesn't pull any tricks like the author did for comic relief...'
Alex couldn't help but remember how he had felt when he got to know about those three idiots. And in Alex's opinion, they were nothing more them comic relief the author had pulled out of his ass...
(QuantumJester: He ain't talking about me (・_・;).)
Regardless, Alex looked towards the door because the whole vanue suddenly became quite. And he got why.
'So... the main cats are finally here... cliché aura farmers. Can't live a day without validation from the mobs. Pathetic.'
Alex looked at the boy who had just entered. Saika stopped talking and looked despite herself. Aika's brain seemed to have rebooted as well...
