The Binding Fates SEASON 1: The Past

Chapter 29: The Academic Students of Rahania Empire

[Elyse's POV]

The gushing of wind came into me when I swiftly swung and dodge all of Arbor's attacks on me. With my long-tied hair swaying grace with my body, I swung and dodge all of his attacks.

I pant, catching my breath as my sweat keeps dripping from my face and neck down to my body and arms.

Arbor's attack is too fast that I question myself is Artemis's Descendant? He's more of Lewis's Descendant because he's great at using swords. Not only does he can use the bow as a weapon but swords and daggers too.

As my mind went everywhere, I accidentally slipped my toe into the rock which made me slip and lay down on the ground. Arbor found an opening and I manage to dodge it before he could kill me.

Since we're using real swords.

"Hey! Don't kill me!" I said but he just glares at me with his eyes glowing. I tremble. Scary Arbor is hot but also scary.

"In war, we don't do that, Elyse." He said and starts to attack me more. I couldn't help but continuously dodge his attacks.

He became way faster than earlier. Shit, I can't find an opening. Suddenly, he disappeared when he jumped right above me. The surrounding became quiet. I freeze, trying to trace him using my powers but my mind is still wandering on who knows where its Lord went!

Today is the day for the students of Rahania to visit our Academy. Rahania was once an Ancient Empire from the world of Olympia. It is an Empire filled with dancers, politicians, and military power. Both Rahania Empire and Olympia Empire were on the opposite sides. The relationship between them is kind of complicated because of their equal power.

When the world was destroyed and the old Master ruled the world that Hiro created, she splits the Empire into three. One of them is an Empire that we're friends on and the other is the Empire that we're in conflict with. The Empire where Lousiette Hildegarde entered.

If the Empire I live in is known to be home for Alphas and great District Leaders name "The Aracnia". The Second Empire where Louisette went is "Rahania", the Empire was known to be home for "Beta" and the third Empire we're friends with is called "Iona", is known as the home for "Omegas".

In ancient civilizations, each person is determined by ranks. The highest rank is Alpha, the second highest in Beta and the lowest is Omega. Omegas are the commoners in the Ancient Civilization, Betas are the aristocrats and middle aristocrats like Count and Baron. The Alpha is the Royal Family, holding the most powerful authority in the world because they believed they were chosen by the Gods and Goddesses.

Until now the ranks are still alive, but you as a person determining where ranks are are no longer alive. Because of this in the past, Omegas were mistreated and were often sold as sex slaves for the aristocrats and Royal Family. Everything was inhumane in the past.

So, the old Master banned the law and divided the Empire into three so that everyone will be treated equally and so she succeeded.

But there are still conflicts between our Empire and Rahania Empire.

That's what I don't know.

Suddenly, I heard a rustling sound coming from the wind. I quickly open my eyes as I could feel it coming straight right into me. Luckily, I blocked Arbor's attack and swung my sword into him. He jumped and he smirked, "not bad." He commented.

"Come on! We're practicing, not killing each other!" I scream out of frustration.

He chuckled, "Well you should focus on fighting Elyse. Until now you still suck." He says and I can't help but clench my fists.
