???: "Sensei. Wake up."
The protagonist's single functioning eye blinked open a few times as wakefulness returned to him.
In front of him was an older teenager, around 160-165cm in height from his guess, with glasses that rested in front of sharp blue eyes.
Her ears were unlike that of a normal human's, stretching out to a point much like an… Elf, was the term wasn't it? A circular blue halo, with 3 lines near the front side of it, rested above her ankle length dark hair that flowed down her white upper uniform, composed of a form fitting inner half with several golden buttons and a jacket, and black pantyhose.
Resting at her waist was a holster for a pistol.
???: "Urg, Rin?"
He mumbles weakly as he pushed away the last remnants of sleep.
Rin let out a quick, exasperated sigh. There was a detectable undercurrent of frustration within her words.
Rin: "I understand you were asked to wait, but I didn't think you would fall asleep. I even had some troubling waking you up… I didn't expect you to be so sound asleep that quickly. You must have been having a dream."
Huh, was it all just a dream then? That'd explain the foggy feeling, trying to remember everything from a dream when you got jolted awake was always a dice roll at best.
Rin: "Anyway, gather yourself and focus. You seem a bit preoccupied. Do you need the situation explained again?"
Rin spoke up, clearly seeing your uncertainty.
You shook your head.
They had, apparently, just talked and gotten you briefly familiar with the situation before Rin had walked off to attend to something.
She was a General Student Council Officer for Kivotos, a massive academy city...
Kivotos was made from the union of thousands of academies.
The academies are divided into mostly independent districts.
The General Student Council (GSC) acted as a governing board to manage the academies before their President's disappearance.
After that, the city became an anarchist society.
Kivotos is home to thousands of different academies with the most notable ones being the Nine Schools and S.C.H.A.L.E.
Students in the city carry guns and cellphones openly on a daily basis.
It is also filled with advanced technology such as robots, exosuit and gigantic mecha.
