Villain Is on Vacation

There were two parts to the entrance exam: 

1. Theoretical knowledge: Written exam (100 marks) ✏️

2. Practical knowledge: Combat exam (100 marks) ⚔️

As anyone could think, you have to fill bunch of papers with answers in the theoretical exams. 

While in the practical xam, you have to show your skill against the mana puppet - which is programmed with stats.

After you fight against that mana puppet with your full power, AI will make a detailed report from the data it collected during the fight. 

The entrance exam for the region\'s best academy was a highly anticipated event, attracting a wide range of influential people from various backgrounds.

Among the attendees were several heirs of wealthy families, including Kaya and Emma.

The children of high-ranking individuals, such as CEOs, politicians, and diplomats, also arrived to take the exam.

Despite the excitement and buzz surrounding the event, the absence of one notable figure caught the attention of many.

Rain Holmes, known for his cold demeanor and striking good looks, was a well-known and admired figure in the region.

With over 1 million followers on the popular \'connect\' app, he had become a social media celebrity in his own right.

As the attendees noticed Rain\'s absence, whispers and speculations filled the air.

Some attendees murmured that he may have been sick or injured, while others wondered if he had personal issues preventing him from attending.

A group of students gathered around, discussing how strange it was for such a prominent figure to miss an event like this.

One group of attendees huddled together, wondering if Rain had already been accepted into the academy and didn\'t need to take the entrance exam.

Another group speculated that he may have decided to attend another academy, despite the prestige of this one.

Yet, other attendees suggested that Rain was simply too arrogant to attend an event where he might not excel, and that he may be avoiding the exam altogether.

As the rumors continued to circulate, some attendees began to discuss the possibility of a secret party for Rain\'s birthday, leading to further speculations and excitement among the attendees.

Which some moron (Kaya), who spread the rumours didn\'t bother about anything. 

And the second & third moron kept their mouth shut (Emma & Arya) about it.

Because only these three were close to Rain, people started to ask them,

- Why he didn\'t come to his birthday party?

- Why he changed his name to only Rain?

- Why he blocked everyone?

- Why didn\'t he come for the exam?

- Will he come to Academy? 

So more rumors started to spread, with people connecting the dots and speculating on what could have happened to Rain.

Whispers and suggestions were exchanged among the attendees, each one more dramatic than the last. 

Kaya and Emma were irritated by the questions and decided to leave the exam center after completing the exam.

Meanwhile, Arya, who was unaware of the situation, was overwhelmed by the barrage of questions and eventually fainted.

Regardless of the reason for his absence, Rain\'s reputation and social status only added to the intrigue surrounding the event.

As the students waited for the exam results to be announced, many remained more curious about the sudden absence of Rain than the exam itself.

***

After three long days, the results of the entrance exam were finally announced, and they were a mixed outcome for the students who had taken it.

Unfortunately, only a small percentage of them had passed, leaving many others feeling disappointed and frustrated.

While, others were happy to get in the class they wished. 

The academy offers different classes based on the student\'s academic performance, ranging from D, C, B, A, to S classes.

Aristeia (S class) has 50 students.

Proteus (A class) has 50 students.

Meson (B class) has 100 students. (2 subclasses)

Telos (C class) has 150 students. (3 subclasses)

Anoikis (D class) has 250 students. (5 subclasses). 

Kaya\'s heart skipped a beat as she stared at the results of the entrance exam.

It wasn\'t because she had a lower ranking than expected.

What truly shocked her was the glaring absence of Rain\'s name among the successful candidates.

"Rain... not coming to the academy?" The words escaped her lips, tinged with disbelief.

When she initially heard that Rain hadn\'t appeared for the entrance exams, she speculated that he might be taking them somewhere else. But that turned out not to be the case. Rain was nowhere to be found.

Kaya wasn\'t the only one taken aback by this revelation. Emma, Arya, Charles, Carla, and all the others who knew Rain were equally stunned.

They were left bewildered and curious about his absence.

As the realization sank in, a wave of questions and concerns washed over them.

What had happened to Rain? Why hadn\'t he taken the exams? Their minds spun with possibilities, and the once-familiar future suddenly seemed uncertain and incomplete.

At the same day the entrance ceremony was held, casting a veil of anticipation over the academy grounds.

Students filled the halls, their voices a mix of excitement and nervousness. 

As they entered the grand auditorium, adorned with banners and emblems representing the academy\'s esteemed history, the atmosphere buzzed with an electric energy.

The vice headmaster, a distinguished figure with a commanding presence, stepped onto the stage, and the room fell silent.

"Hello, My name is Alex Brownie. I\'m vice headmaster of this academy." 

His voice resonated through the hall as he welcomed the new students, emphasizing the significance of the journey they were about to embark upon.

"As you begin your time at this prestigious institution," the headmaster declared, "remember that the true measure of success lies not solely in individual accomplishments, but also in the strength and support of the community that surrounds you."

Kaya couldn\'t help but glance around, her gaze trying to find Rain. 

She expected he might have got at least admission before the entrance exam. 

The vice headmaster continued his speech, highlighting the academy\'s values of camaraderie, determination, and integrity.

However, Kaya wasn\'t least bit interested in boring speech. 

She knew she had to uncover the truth behind Rain\'s absence. 

Soon, the student who scored highest marks in the entrance exam was called. As usual, he also gave a boring speech. 

After the ceremony, the students dispersed, each making their way to their assigned classrooms.

As they left the hall, still talking amongst themselves about Rain\'s absence and other rumours. 

It was then that an unexpected person stepped forward, offering to clarify the rumors.

To everyone\'s surprise, it was Rain himself.
