When a prestigious academy becomes the center of terrifying rumors and a teacher is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the entire kingdom trembles in fear. Northern Light Academy-once a shining symbol of honor and privilege-has turned into a place whispered about as haunted, a school where lights flicker on their own, footsteps echo down empty halls, and shadows move without bodies to cast them.
Prince Rayyan, heir to the Araminta Kingdom, refuses to sit back and watch panic spread. Disguised as an ordinary student and armed with nothing but courage and curiosity, he steps into the academy alone-determined to uncover the truth behind the death, the rumors, and the darkness crawling behind the school walls.
But the deeper he digs, the more the truth twists into something far more dangerous than ghost stories.
Students vanish without explanation. Memories are erased. The school hides secrets buried so deep that even the royal council fears them. And something inside the academy seems alive-watching him, waiting for him.
There's only one rule whispered among the terrified students:
"Don't walk alone. And never look into the dark."
Rayyan thought he came to solve a mystery.
He didn't know he was walking straight into his destiny-
and that once he enters, there may be no way out.

Villain's diary
I died a pathetic death, a corporate drone crushed by overwork. Imagine my surprise when I woke up in a fantasy world, not as the prophesied hero, but as the notoriously weak and despised 'Demon Lord's Scapegoat'-a figure destined to be sacrificed to awaken the true Demon Lord. Except, the 'Demon Lord's Scapegoat' has a hidden ability: 'Absolute Mana Absorption,' allowing me to drain and master any magic I encounter. The original story had me dying ignominiously. My version? I'm going to absorb every single spell, every divine blessing, and every forbidden curse in this world. Let the heroes come. Let the true Demon Lord awaken. They'll just be another source of power for my ascension. This diary isn't just my survival guide; it's my manifesto for absolute magical supremacy.Complete
Loner of the Vanguard
In a shocking twist of fate, an ordinary school is transported from the familiar world into a vibrant, fantastical kingdom brimming with magic and mythical creatures. Unbeknownst to the students and staff, this realm is plagued by an age-old menace: a powerful demon king bent on conquering the land and casting it into eternal darkness. Stripped of their routines and comforts, the bewildered group soon learns of their urgent mission: to aid the kingdom as its last line of defense. With courage and resilience, they must rise to the challenge, leaving behind the ordinary lives they once knew. In this world, a mystical system has awakened within each of them, bestowing the ability to unlock and harness hidden powers that reflect their unique potential. This system offers new paths to greatness, empowering them to forge alliances, master unfamiliar skills, and confront their deepest fears as they prepare to face the demon king's unrelenting forces. However, not all the students are blessed with equal opportunities or strength. One student, an unlikely hero among them, discovers he has been assigned a lower-tier class-a position with few benefits and even fewer options. Unlike his peers who wield swords, magic, or other mighty abilities, he finds himself restricted to a limited set of skills and weaponry, with only a shield at his disposal. Despite feeling the weight of these limitations, he becomes a symbol of determination and tenacity, relying on strategy, resourcefulness, and an unyielding will to prove that strength isn't always defined by power alone.
Detention
We held our breath as we heard footsteps enter the dark room. My heart raced and I covered my mouth to keep from screaming as tears ran down my cheeks. Caleb sat next to me, with obvious fear in his eyes. I knew that the desk couldn't hide us for much longer and that's what scared me the most. The footsteps came closer and they grew louder by the second. I held my breath once I heard the man's footsteps stop. Caleb and I exchanged looks as we sat frozen under the desk. I looked up, trying to listen to the man's actions. Then a gloved hand grabbed the edge of the desk and the man's bloody mask appeared in front of me. He stared at us and chuckled, "Found you." · · · Seven classmates find themselves in detention from breaking the rules at their school.

Gemstone Academy
My eyes finally adjusted and I got a good look at the guy. Holy shit, he was HOT. He rivaled Lazarus, and that's saying a lot. He might even be more attractive than Elridge, wait no, I wasn't so sure about that one. Anyway, he had blonde wavy hair, milky skin that was clear from any imperfection, and he was tall. He was wearing a black long sleeved shirt that was fitted so you could see his muscles. There was something off about him though. Oh, I know what it was. His eyes were bright purple. Then he blinked and they were sky blue. What the...? Maybe it was just a trick of the light. ----- Elizabeth Huntress is only second in line for the crown for her country, but she wants to be queen bad.
