Arthur's POV
The first day of school finally arrived. After weeks of preparations, I'm finally ready for the academy. Of course, before leaving, I made sure to say my goodbyes to my parents, to Banther, to Hoshuka, and to everyone in the house as well. Even though it's only been few weeks, I got to know everyone in the house and got even more closer to them.
Banther was already fully recovered. Meanwhile, Hoshuka was still giving off an awkward aura whenever she is near me, but I know that someday she'll open up to me. I just have to wait. That is assuming if that day comes around.
"Always humble yourself, Arthur." Benedict said after we both embraced each other.
"Never let them bully you, my baby. If they do, just give me their names and I'll deal with them!" Christina said amidst her sobs, hugging me so tight that I felt the air in my lungs escape.
"Easy, mom. And don't worry! I'll take care of them. Legally." I added the last part just in case.
After my mother finally calmed down, a floating vehicle the same size of a car descended in front of the gate. A zolgarian driver stepped outside and opened the door for me, gesturing me to head inside while giving me a bow so low that I thought he has a scoliosis.
"Please relax." I said awkwardly.
"Thank you, young master. I hope you enjoy the ride." He said and we took off, heading to the academy.
On the way, I got to watch the outside world for the first time since I was born. It was packed to the brim with zolgarians and some races that I don't recognize while the city was busy and beaming with lights 24/7. This world is similar to Earth. The only difference is that there is an element called Force, and we are not human beings. We are zolgarians.
We drove through the thick clouds and when we finally passed through them, I found countless floating vehicles driving as well in every direction in the sky. Of course, there were also traffic enforcements to ensure that there will be no accidents happening during the traffic.
This world is beautiful. It is filled with unknowns that I find amusing. And I am thankful to my Creator that He has given me a chance to live another life and to repent.

The journey took almost a day. I finally arrived in the academy as well. I watched the entrance of the academy with awe as my eyes wandered around the place. The front entrance was packed with zolgarians around my age that were also puzzled at the scenery.
The front entrance had countless flags displayed that were attached in the flagpole, flapping around due to the wind passing by. Each flags have different family insignia, while their family names were carved under their symbol for zolgarians to see and know which family they belong to.
My eyes saw the Luminosity's insignia. Below it was written "Luminosity". The writings were carved with golden ink, and it was sparkling under the light due to the glitters in each letter.
After staring at the entrance and memorizing the family names that were in the flag, I walked inside the reception to get processed and receive my room key as well. That didn't take a while. It was fast. They asked my name and which family I belonged into. Then they searched it in their data and quickly found my name afterwards. With that, I was already processed in, and they gave me my room keys.
"Goodluck, Arthur Von Luck Luminosity. I pray to our Creator that wonderful blessings will be bestowed upon you throughout your journey here in the academy." The receptionist said with a sweet smile plastered to her face.
"Thanks." I said and began to walk into my room.
From the outside, the school looked small. But in the inside, it was the opposite. The hallways were wide and stretchy. They were breaming with bright lights as well even though there were no light bulbs in the ceiling. However, under the walls and floors, were countless, differing runes that are always active in case an emergency happens.
I got to my room and set my luggage off. As much as I wanted to explore more of the school, I was feeling so tired. So, I decided to take rest.
I'm excited though. Let's see what this academy will bring to us.
