SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

[Sorry for putting this up here, but hey, if you can, please drop a review]

Silva, Lia, and Mike could not stay for the burial of the four who had died, he couldn't even brief the Viscount about what happened, he was only able to tell it to Quin and let Quin handle the issue.

They got into their carriage and left town. Silva looked through the windows, observing Roxy's sad face as he left. He took a deep breath and put that to the back of his mind.

The carriage soon entered the forest. They would be arriving early the next day before classes start, as long as there was nothing to hold them back or waste their time.

"Yesterday, when the abominations suddenly attacked the town, I didn't see you," Mike said.

"I was searching for the person that caused the abominations to appear. I did find him, but he put up some crazy resistance, so I had to kill him. Obliterated him," Silva said.

"I see, it's good to know that you were there to help. Also, was that what you were telling Quin?" Mike asked.

"Yeah, I needed to brief the viscount, but I had to leave, so I left it up to Quin," Silva explained.

After their small chit-chat, they stayed quiet for most of the journey, only talking from time to time.

Silva and Lia finally arrived at the academy. They had dropped Mike off a while ago before coming to the academy. They got out of the carriage and headed inside. It was still a bit early, so they had enough time to get ready.

"I'll see you in a bit," Lia said before heading for her dorm. Silva did the same as well. He got to his room, but Aaron was already out. He quickly took his bath, wore his uniform, and headed for the classes.

He arrived a bit late, even later than Lia, which shocked him. He took a seat at the back quietly.

Miss Elizabeth was up there already, but she was yet to start. After Silva walked in, she began the class. Because of their small number, she could tell when a student was not around. She was also informed as his homeroom teacher that he would be going home for the weekend, so she understood his lateness.

"Alright everyone, before I go on to teach, I'd like to make an announcement that I was asked to. Every year, the royal family hosts the Elite competitions. I'm sure all the nobles have heard of this.

But for those that haven't heard about it, it is a competition that spans first years to fourth years from all academies in the kingdom. The winners of these competitions are given the tag of Elite.

There exist other rewards to it, but those will be decided by the royal family. Blacklight Academy has two Elites in the fourth year; they are both part of the student council. But we haven't won anymore after that.

Hopefully, this year there will be some change," she said and glanced at Silva.

'So this is what that director wants, she wants to use me. Not a bad idea, but I'll have to really think about the benefits of the competition. I'll need more information for this,' Silva thought. -chapter

"So, our academy was given ten slots for every class, from the first year up to the fourth year. That means we can only take a total of forty students from the academy.

The director and the board, with help from the council, have decided that the best way to get those forty would be to have a small-scale competition in the school to choose them as well.

So, the date will be informed to you, and maybe some details about it. You all should keep yourselves in the best state for when the competition starts."

After that, she taught on basic magical concepts. Though most of the students didn't have their minds on the lesson because of the announcement she had made.

Another thing on their minds was the fact that Silva was having a duel today, a five versus one match. When most of the students got this information, they felt that Silva was prideful and needed to be put down.

Others believed that he could pull it off. They had witnessed his fights, and they felt like he hadn't even put his all into it yet.

With the time getting closer, things like bets were being placed.

When it was time, the five second years were already in the arena, but Silva was fashionably late. He walked into the arena like he didn't care. The arena was packed, from first years to third years, even some fourth years.

The reason for the third years being there was because they wanted to see the downfall of the dude that disgraced them.

"It's wise if you give up now. I don't know what made you choose to duel us, but we will not take it easy on you just because you are alone," the boy spoke, but Silva started picking his ear with his pinky finger like he hadn't heard anything the boy had said.

The boy fumed with rage; whatever it took, they had to take Silva down.

"Get into formation," the boy said, and he took out his sword. There were three sword users in their team and two mages with staves. They took a V-shaped formation. The boy was at the front, with the mages next on either side, and lastly, the two sword users behind.

"You guys even made a formation to fight me? Sadly, I have to play with you. I want to show everyone who I am," Silva said.

"System, are there any spells similar to what that man I fought in the alley used?" Silva asked the system. It had been quite a while since he bought spells.

[Dark tendrils, 20,000 SP]

"Purchase it."

[Purchased]

"You five can come at me anytime," Silva said.

The boy frowned and gave the order. "Move forward!"

"Dark tendrils," Silva said in a calm voice. Black liquid-like tendrils shot out of the ground.
