I Killed The Main Characters

Chapter 11: Ravenwood Magic Academy [1]

"The introduction part of the game should be ending, which means...

Act I will be taking place after."

Noah was putting on the clothes Alice had brought.

What made them different was that...

"This is the official uniform."

"Today is the day, Ravenwood's doors will be open to first years," Noah said as he buttoned his shirt.

"I'll need to play this safely, to ensure everything goes as planned..."

"Mostly other extra characters would be spouting that they don't want to get involved with the main characters, the plot and what not...

I on the other hand tend to get involved as much as possible, get so close with the main characters that they wouldn't suspect a thing from me..."

"Oh, and the plot?

I'll squeeze myself in it as much as I can."

"Because the game [Beyond Horizons] was developed in a way even the slightest change or added variant would lead to a different route but same outcome..."

"Though there are times some Acts and Scenarios get messed up."

"I've played the game more times than I count...

All I have to do is play it cool and not rush things. The puzzle pieces will fall in place on their own."

And if they won't, I'll manipulate them to my liking..."

Noah concluded as he pushed back his silky black hair.

He then put on the black academy blazer after making sure the red tie looked perfect and took a glance at the mirror.

A small smirk appeared on his face.

"Hmph...sexy mother fucker."

At that moment there was a knock on the door and he knew who it was.

"Come in Alice..."

The door swung open gently.

"Young master, are you ready?"

Alice asked as she took a look at Noah.

"Stunning..."

Was the perfect word to describe Noah.

"As always, you are able to pull off any fit," Alice commented as she smiled.

Her smile was a rare sight and Noah knew it.

Alice was always in 'Serious Work Mode' so it was hard to see her smile.

"Shall we go?

I already put your luggages in the car."

Alice assured.

"Yeah...let's go, thank you once again Alice."

Noah said as he held Alice's hand and then letting go after flashing a smile.

'A-am I getting flattered by a sixteen year old?'

Alice thought as she squeezed her face that was turning red.

"Come on Alice."

Noah called out from the hallway as Alice bolted out locking the door.

"Coming..."

They both stepped out of the house and before them was the car with all of Noah's luggages.

It wasn't much, just two suitcases, the Academy offered more after all so there was no need in carrying the entire bedroom.

'Wait...where's Maya?'

Noah thought.

A carriage then rolled up to the house behind the car.

"Are we late?"

Elizabeth peered out of the window asking.

"No, you're just in time, let's be on our way,"

Margaret replied as they all got in the car, the carriage with Maya and her mom following behind.

The journey to Elderwood was a bittersweet one, filled with moments that would linger in his memory for years to come.

The road wound through lush forests, where towering trees with emerald canopies whispered in the wind, their leaves dancing in the sunlight.

Occasionally, they passed serene meadows dotted with wildflowers, their colors a vibrant contrast to the deep green of the surrounding woods.

As the carriage behind them rolled along, the sound of horses' hooves rhythmically hitting the cobblestone path.

Noah's parents spoke softly, their voices filled with both pride and a tinge of sadness.

His mother, her eyes glistening with unshed tears, talked about how much they would miss his presence at home—the way he filled their days with his energy and curiosity.

His father, trying to mask his emotions with a stern expression, mentioned how quiet the house would be without Noah's constant chatter and laughter.

And as the towering gates of Elderwood came into view, Noah couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension, knowing that once he passed through them, everything would be different.

"The root of everything that happened..."

Noah though as he stared out the window, the Academy's gates getting closer and closer.

"The Magic Academy of Ravenwood..."

They reached it and some guards approached them.

"Sorry, but no vehicles beyond the gate, both horsepowered and...well, horsepowered..."

The guard said laughing on his own.

His comrade just looked away and even taking a few steps away as if saying, "I don't know him..."

"Don't mind him...just leave the luggages here with the students names and student ID and they will be delivered to their assigned dorm rooms."

The other composed guard said with a smile.

"Thank you," Amon replied.

"Tha administration block is just up ahead, meet with the professor incharge of the first years, you can't miss her..."

"Ginger hair and looking like she'll explode with happiness at any moment..."

Everyone looked confused but they just accepted and went in.

Noah was the only one not confused as he knew exactly who the guard had been referring to.

They stepped foot into the Academy and took in its marvellous sight.

The Academy grounds of Ravenwood were breathtaking.

As Noah, his parents, Maya, and her mother walked toward the Administration Block, they passed through an expansive courtyard shaded by tall oak trees.

The cobblestone path was lined with vibrant gardens, where flowers bloomed and small fountains trickled softly.

Ahead, the Administration Block stood tall, its stone façade adorned with carvings of mythical creatures and symbols of magic.

Groups of students in the same attire with silver emblems studied under the trees or practiced spells in training areas.

Noah's parents admired the impressive surroundings, though a hint of sadness touched their expressions.

Maya and her mother followed close behind, taking in the sights with determination.

As they approached the grand entrance, the heavy wooden doors opened, revealing the majestic interior.

"First years right?"

A woman with features that fit the guards description approached the group.

"Oh, hey...are you the professor in charge of the first years?"

Margaret asked smiling.

"Yes that's me, allow me to introduce myself..."

"My name is Professor Sharon Albright."

"Nice to meet you professor Sharon,"

Noah's mother replied.

"I believe everything is in order...luggages left at the gate that we'll be delivered to their rooms, the yearly tuition fees paid and everything required..."

Sharon said smiling so as not to seem that she cared more about the money.

"Uhhh...yes all that is done."

Margaret said looking at her husband as if not sure.

"The receipts were sent to the school's address through mail,"

Amon replied.

"And what about her?"Sharon said looking at Maya.

"Oh...uhhh the school said something about bringing personal staff, atleast one..."

Margaret said smiling nervously.

"Oh, Noble family...I see, my apologies for not realising sooner," Sharon said bowing.

'She can't be blamed, with the many Count houses growing, who would keep track of all of them,' Noah thought inwardly.

"I assume her accommodations were paid for..."

Sharon stated.

"Yes...yes they are..."

Maya's mum said also flashing a gentle smile and looking at Margaret as if screaming inwardly "Thank You so fucking much!!!"

"Very well, you can take your leave after saying your good byes..."

"And the two will join the other new students in that room."

Sharon said pointing at the room with doors so big, the width could fit 10 people at once.

"Aaaawww, I'll miss you sweetie,"

Margaret said hugging Noah and as always, her tight embrace had Noah looking for breathing spots above the breasts.

"I'll miss you too mum, I wish I could stay just a bit longer..."

Noah said.

Though part of what he said was true, he was lying, he had wanted to join the Academy as soon as possible.

"Take care son...and remember allies are important in here and so is your constellation...keep that in mind if you want to succeed."

Amon stated ruffling Noah's hair.

"I will...thanks dad," Noah replied.

"Maya, remember what I taught you..."

Amon approached Maya.

"Always have, Mr Ashbourne, thank you for your help and unwavering trust," Maya replied smiling.

"Pursue your intended field darling, okay?"

Elizabeth said giving Maya a kiss on the forehead.

"I will mum,"Maya replied.

With that they left after Alice rushed to Noah giving him a tight hug.

"Take care of yourself Noah..."

Alice said.

For the first time she used Noah's name and that made Noah feel a different sense of warmth.

Such moments had him sure that his decision of killing the individuals who will bring doom upon this world was necessary and not an insane one.

"Don't worry about me, you know me better..."

Noah replied to Alice smiling, his eyes closed as a ray of sunlight beamed him.

'I'm giving off main character vibes...but Alice has been a great help and I'm thankful to her.'

Noah thought as he got rid of the thought.

"Now then, shall you two head into the room..."

Sharon said guiding them to the room that grew noisy with each step they took.

"It's crazy how just the other day I was sitting in my room looking directly into my monitor where this magnificent world was enclosed..."

"I should be thankful to whoever brought me here...

But my motive still remains the same...I'll kill every last one of those individuals that call themselves the Blessed children of this era..."

"I became a character that was never introduced in the game..."

"All because of a bad review...I was transmigrated here to prove the reality of my words..."

"Fine, I'll show you what a hardcore gamer and possibly the only one who knows this world and its characters in and out...

Someone who has seen the game's multiple endings can do...and what a fucking perfect ending looks like!"

Noah cursed under his breath as he pushed the doors open.
