Advertisement
Hello guys here is the first chapter of The Hallow Order Arc Enjoy :D
Ps: Looking for an editor!
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Van's group made their way to the Warhammer Division, the building had a huge sign, the sign was that of two red hammers that were smashing down on a skull.
The building looked the same as the one they just came from, like a castle.
"Follow me!" Christian said in a laid-back manner as we entered the small castle, the inside was also pretty much the same as the one before but the difference is the people who were walking around, they all had on silver armor with hammer sign on their arms.
We made our way towards a board, Christian pointed at it "This is the mission board, it is here you will pick up you missions so don't forget." he said and moved on from the board towards a room a that looked like a classroom as it had desk and chairs at the back and a huge desk with a board behind it in the front.
"This room will be your classroom from now, starting from tomorrow you have to be here before sunrise and that goes for every other day except for when you are on a mission, am I understood?" he said looking at the people behind him "Yes sir!" they replied in unison.
"Good, now go and pick you desk by placing your emblem on the right side" he said and the people behind him all went towards a desk and placed their emblem on the right side of the desk, this caused the emblem to flow blue before returning back its colour.
"Take a seat, since today is your first day here I won't take much of your time but I would like to use this time to explain few basic information with you." Christian said and stood behind the desk in the front and everyone sat down on their chairs and looked at him
.
"First, let's talk about how many levels there are in Qi. The first level is the Qi User level and it has over 8 stages and it's the level all of you are in right now...The next level is the Qi Grandmaster level, it has only 4 stages and it is also the level I am at right now, this level unlike the first level, will allow one to use Qi energy which allows me to break your skull in a matter of seconds so make sure not to piss me off....*sigh*.....Moving on we got the General level which also has 4 stages but this level will allow one to use the energy to fly or move things using it, the next level is the Lord level and it will be explained to you when you reach the General level so there is not point to think about it right now.

Moving onto the more useful things we have the ranks that will be a big part of your life in the academy and outside of it, I am sure you already know about the Soldier rank and so on so let's just talk about how to move up in ranks. In order to move through rank's you will need to gain merits, each rank can be bought with a certain amount of merits like for example to become a Second Lieutenant you will need 30 merits while you need 8000 merits to become a general, now the merits can be gained by either doing missions which will reward you with certain amounts of merits or by killing evildoers around the country.
The missions are ranked from F to SS and you as soldiers can only do F -rank missions for now but as you move higher in ranks you will be able to do higher-ranked missions. Now each mission will reward you differently like F-ranked missions might give you only 30 merits but the SS-ranked mission will give you 50000 merits. So higher ranked missions are much better way to gain merits but there is also a very high risk with higher ranked mission as they are very hard to do.
Another way to gain merits is by killing evildoers like I just said a while ago, how high the rank of evildoers is the more merits you will gain for example by killing a soldier level evildoer you will gain only 1 merit, but if you kill a Major you will get 500 merits so make sure to kill as many evildoers while you are out on missions that way you can get more merits.
Merits aren't only used to move up ranks but it is also used to buy armor, weapons, techniques, elixirs e.g. so make sure to use your merits on them to help you move up in levels because you will need to be at a certain level before you can get a rank, for example, to become a captain not only do you need 300 Merits but you also need to be at the first stage of the Qi grandmaster level." After talking for so long Christian finally stopped talking and let the people sort out the information they just got.
Beep~ Beep~
Christian's emblem started to beep, he looked at it for a while before looking at his class "You are dismissed for today, make sure to come back tomorrow at first light" he said before he left the room in a hurry.
After everyone looked at each other for while they all stood up, none of them knew each other so there was nothing to talk about so they all left the room one by one the last being Van who was playing with the bird on his shoulder.

Van leisurely made his way back to his room.
After he went in the room he didn't find the young girl anywhere so he just went to his room and jumped on his bed and went to sleep.
After a while, the girl walked into the room and looked at the room where Van was sleeping after she remembered what had happened before her cheeks went red and she stormed into her room.
The night descended and the room became quiet.
In the next morning Van opened his eyes as he stood up and looked around his bed for the bird but couldn't find it anywhere, he went out of the room and saw the young girl with the bird on her shoulder, when she made eye contact with him her ears turned red and she stormed off leaving him in room all alone.
After sighting for a while he went and got changed as it was almost light.
After getting changed and getting something to eat from the hall he made his way to the classroom. When he got there he found out he as the last person to arrive, he went to his desk and took a seat while putting his emblem on the right side of the desk. A few moments later a woman stepped into the room and looked at the students in front of here they all showed a confused expression as they didn't know what was going on.
"My name is Tina Chinoy and I am Christian Aaron's First Lieutenant, today he got an order from his superiors so I am taking over the class until he gets back" She said and wrote her name on the board.
She started to give the students a lesson about most of the things Christian has told them but in more detail, after 5 hours the lesson came to a halt and the students were dismissed.
Most of the students stayed to get to know each other unlike yesterday but Van made his way out of the room, he has already made his plan's for today as he went towards the Mission board and looked at it.
Most of the Missions on the board were at rank F and there were some Rank E,D,C on it and even some rank B but other than that there was nothing higher.
Van took out a Rank F mission and read the small paper.
Justice demands retribution! In this case, it requires death! Hero, a group of filthy miscreants killed some of our farmers without mercy. They also took some of our little girls. We will not let them go unpunished. Hero, be so kind and deal with those miserable miscreants. They'll be no match for you, those miscreants. I'm not asking you to kill all of them, just make sure you do what I ask of you and please get our girls back.
There's no big reward at the end of the line, but I think my reward will be more than fair. Be swift and strike true hero, we're counting on you.
There was also a location on where these miscreants gather as well as how much the mission is rewarded, it was 30 merits just the amount you need to move up on rank so Van put the paper in his pocket and went back to his room.
After he got to his room he met the young girl again in front of the door and looked at her with a smile but she turned around to go back to her room, he moved very fast and got in front of her and she ran right into his chest, she was startled and looked up at him who was smiling at her, she put her head down as her cheeks went red before she took out her sword and thrust it towards him with her eyes closed.
He moved swiftly and moved to her side taking away the sword from "You know, you can't act like this forever since we are roommates why don't get to know each other instead of trying to kill each other, doesn't that sound better?" Van said and she opened her eyes and looked at him for a while, her cheeks were still red and the anger in her eyes didn't seem to be going down, but after a deep breath she calmed herself down and took the sword away from him.
"I don't want to know you!" she said and left the room
"Why is she so hard to get through?" Van asked himself before going to his room and getting his sword, shortly after he also left the room and the academy.
At the exit of the academy, he used his emblem to sign out before he went after the miscreants.
