The Adventure Academy, Cytus

Lead colored clouds brood in the sky. Under that sky is a boy named Chrono, with black hair, and bangs coming out. The clothes he is wearing is a long sleeved black attire, almost seem like a uniform of some sort, and pants to match it.

Chrono let out a little sigh while holding a bag of coins.

"What should I do now?"

Chrono looks like a kitten that was abandoned by his mother.

Chrono looks to the right and sees something like a stone wall covering a bunch of buildings in the distance.

"Guess I should just go there."

After walking for quite sometime Chrono finally reached his destination. Infront of him is a large door. Chrono knocked at the door, and it suddenly opens.
Chrono backs away with his hands Infront of his face, thinking he did something wrong.

"E-eh? W-what?"

As the door opens, horses that are carrying carriages, walks across. Chrono, who has never seen a horse before, hides behind a tree near him, and watches as the carriages move.

"What kind of creature is that? Is it one of the races Ezza mentioned?" Chrono mumbles to himself

After the carriages goes away, the door slowly closes, but before it closed, Chrono sneaks inside.

The door slams behind Chrono, but he was too distracted by the view in front of him to notice. The view he's seeing is a view he has never seen before. Stalls selling various ingredients of food, and children running around the place. Before he can react, a food merchant reaches out to him.

"Hey you there! The kid with the uniform! Are you new here?"

Chrono points his index finger at himself to clarify, and the merchant nods in response. Chrono walks towards him.

"I saw you enter the town, but after taking a closer look," The merchant holds his jaw with his leather gloved hand, and thoroughly inspect my clothes "You ARE a student at Cytus academy, but what are you doing at the outskirt of town? I thought students aren't allowed to go outside of town." the merchant asked him a question he knows not the answer.

"Uhm, I was, uhh..."

While thinking of an excuse, Chrono remembered the time where he heard a student walking in the street besides him saying about a transfer student.

"I'm a transfer student! I just arrived here today so I don't know the way to the academy, do you mind telling me how to get there?" Chrono smiled to get rid of the suspicion

"Oh, rare to see a transfer student at this time of year. Welcome to the town of Cyrus, if you want to go to the academy just follow the road your standing on, and go left infront of the magic shop, from there you can see the academy."

Chrono thanked the merchant, and goes to the academy, not like he has any choice though.

After taking a left at the magic shop, Chrono saw the academy, even in the distance the academy looks big.

After arriving at the academy, one of the guards walks towards Chrono.

"You there, what are you doing outside of the academy, class is about to start, get inside now!"
