《BlackCrown》BlackCrown: The First Year (I) Pt. 3

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Part Three
Within each year, there were three divisions. They were based on the type of EXO abilities a user had, and the professors within each division would help students develop their abilities to the next stage.
They were the offensive division, defensive division, and support division. The divisions were then broken down into grades, novice, intermediate, advanced, master.
Freshman started out in the novice grade and worked their way up until they reached master grade. By the time of their graduation, all the seniors reached master rank.
There are a few cases of freshman being able to skip novice grade classes if they were truly that skilled, but only the very best were accomplish such a feat.
No matter what division you were in, you were specialized in something. An example would be an offensive EXO user who used ice as their ability. They would then study under someone who had the same EXO ability or had a vast amount of knowledge about it.
The freshman were now attending their first and only class.
The thing with normal schools were that they gave you multiple classes which you had to take, usually taking up eight hours of your day. However here, you only had one class that took up six hours of your time.
The teacher you had stayed with you the entire year.
These teachers were highly skilled; some had prestige in the EXO community while others were new. One thing could be said about them all though; each one was strong enough that they were sought after, even by the president.
Yet working for the country and working for an EXO school had two different meanings.
In the support division, the freshman students just got settled into their seats. They were all glad that they did not have assigned seats like their previous school. Here they were able to sit next to someone they may know, or one they previously talked to.

Nick was seated next to the window in the very front row. While his classmates were busy making friends he was silently waiting for class to start.
Seated next to him was a young woman with curly purple hair. Her light purple eyes glanced in his direction.
He seemed to have noticed her gaze as he looked at her.
He never paid much attention to who was seated next to him before, but now that he looked at her he was shocked slightly. She was wearing white framed glasses.
Now it wasn’t unusual for a person to wear glasses, but for an EXO user to wear them was a different story. Generally speaking, an EXO user genes were stronger than an ordinary human causing their body to be tougher as well. They were immune to most diseases, and they could easily have perfect vision.
‘Strong eyesight? She must be able to see the flow in the air, and the glasses must help her control her eyesight. Or it could be something else entirely.’
“Why aren’t you talking to the others? It’s the first day many people would take this chance to make friends, yet you are here being all quiet.”
“There is nothing strange about that; I could just be a loner that enjoys staying to himself. Besides, do you have any room to talk? I haven’t heard you speak to anyone next to you as well.”
“That's different. I chose not to speak to them.”
“And, what if I choose not to speak to you?”
“That’s rude don’t you think so bud.”
A handsome young man butted into their conversation. His short black hair seemed to take on a natural curl, and his green eyes matched him perfectly.
He was sitting behind Nick.
“Ah, my bad I didn’t mean to listen in on your conversation, but with you two sitting so close it is kind of hard not to hear.”
“There’s no need to apologize; it was indeed rude of me to say such a thing. But I only meant it in a teasing manner hopefully the young lady took no offense.”
“This young lady has a name you know.”
Nick smiled gently at her.
“Care to give your name young lady?”
“Freya Smith, and you are?”
“Nick Wilson.”
“Matthew White.”

The Cosmic Interloper
Synopsis: A cyborg transhuman escapes her corporate indenture and through unfathomably unlikely circumstances, she ends up in a fantasy world of full of unique magic, angry people with sharp implements, and the whole flavor-spectrum of divine entities. Hilarity ensues. Features: - No blue boxes or cultivation, this is not a LitRPG nor about martial arts - Hard-ish Sci-Fi meets hard-ish magic - Generally trying to keep this "rational" Rationale: My primary goal with The Cosmic Interloper is to write something that I myself would enjoy reading. Of course, that’s not the only motivation, but I think it’s the most important one for me to keep in mind, especially as the author. In fact, this whole story came about because after consuming oodles of fiction, I found myself craving a very specific type of story which I couldn’t find many examples of. Then I asked myself, “why not write it myself?” and here we are. Disclaimer: In general, while I’m not writing a comedy, I do intend for this story to be funny and a bit wacky or absurd. That said though, I am using this story as a vehicle to explore some potentially dark topics including (but not limited to) slavery, speciesism/racism, and existential questions of self, consciousness, and identity. Still, I’m going to leave the “traumatizing content” tags off, because I don’t feel that what I’ve written so far (or plan on writing) exceeds the threshold that would be necessary for me to tag it thusly. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way she views the world is not the objective truth (if such a thing even exists).

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
