“Riyata Academy; The school for the Exiled and Exilers. At the early age of 15, students are enrolled into this academy if they have been found with the potential of using “Elemental Magic”(EM). Their EM levels are measured to see exactly how strong each Exiled and Exiler is, the numbers of EM crystals they produce then rank them.

To determine an Exiler’s EM Rating, they are asked to “Virtualize” their limiter, an armor that is attached to their arms the instant they were born, which size adjusts as you age. The color of this EM limiter is the determination point of what element the user is able to use, this is also shown by the corresponding colors of their blazers. (And stockings for girls) The EM crystals are basically the gems encrusted on the armor itself, for each crystal, the Exiler is given one Lv, and they can range from Lv0 to Lv10. Corresponding to the number.

For Exileds, it’s a more difficult process. Since the EM crystals are actually internal and not external, it is then determined by the amount of EM control a person has. No control is Lv0 and full control is Lv10.

…de!”

With a swoosh, the huge screen of text on the board vanished and revealed the Academy logo, A shield with wings and the letters “R” and “A” in gold bold casing on it. The one who removed the text was a teacher. Her name was Mariette Mariana-Sensei. Wearing a black suit and white shirt (which barely can cover her skin…) black stockings and dark blue highheels. She was the teacher for history for class 1-A.

“That’s about it for the method to enter this school. Now are there any more requests?” she asked.

Turning around, she looked at the rows of students all listening attentively to the lecture. A hand shot up. The girl who raised her hand stood up and asked.

“The history about “The White Beast” please.”

A huge uproar in the female students suddenly began.

“Really? About him?”

“Kyaa~ I really want to know now.”

“Ee. To become his Exiled has been my dream.”

Seeing the uproar, Mariana-Sensei coughed and cleared her throat. The room instantly silenced.

“Ok then. Since you are all so eager.”

“‘The White Beast’, as you should know from the 9th Elimination that happened from 1 year ago, is an amazing Exiler who can wield various EM types.”

Mariana-Sensei tossed an image from a small screen she made in front of her onto the screen. It enlarged and showed a blurred picture of a person with a white cloak that cover his face to toes.

“Gender: Male, about 16 years old. And has been involved in all Eliminations since the 5th one which occurred 5 years ago. All that is known about him is that he always appears at the “Elimination” group’s darkest hours and immediately defeats the Judgements and leaves without a trace. And for those who can’t remember, Elimination is the event where our school’s top students will go and defeat these Judgements.

Well although there is this picture and it is said that he goes to this school however…”

Mariana-Sensei sighed.

“The only people to actually see him here is the principal and his personal teacher. So it is said he doesn’t have an Exiled. But no one can confirm it. Even your Sensei wants to be his Exiled as well.”

Mariana-Sensei started blushing and fidgeting. In response, the entire class started to go silent again.
