The morning sun rose, with rays shining on the fantasia island, making it more lively as it already was with a wonderful new day.
“Hey, have you heard that from today the first-year batch will have their class and also there’s a new Instructor who came over from the outside world!” A random student was discussing with his friends in the cafeteria.
.....
“Yeah! I also heard that and from what I know, he will also instruct other classes too.” Another friend sitting beside the first person commented.
“Hmmn! I heard that he is a schooler so mostly he will be teaching us about the theories!” Another student said after chewing his food.
Just like these few students, the discussion about the new instructor was very hot. As he is very young and looks plain average but because the students of fantasia academy haven’t seen the new face so for them, this is a very good change.
Not just them but also the newcomers are also very nervous and anxious about their new life.
They will be spending their 5 to 10 years in this academy and after that, they will be employed on the island with their respective speciality.
The academy has made a clear goal for them so the students only have to care about building their foundation.
.....
“Good morning class!”
“Good morning Instructor!”
The young plain-looking young man wearing scholarly robes greeted the students who in return greeted back.
“Hmmn! I see many faces here and from the headcount, it looks like everyone is present here!” The instructor looks over the students and plainly observes them.
“Well! For the starter let me introduce myself, I am Erick Dahl’ so just call Instructor Erick!” Erick Dahl introduced himself too eager students.
Erick looked over and counted close to over 100 and from his observation, he can tell there are all kinds of hair colours or skin colours present so he can guess that the students’ presents are from all over the world.
After that, he thought he would let them introduce themselves but looking over the time he didn’t have that much time at all so he cancelled that thought.
“Okay! How many can you tell that you know what Supernaturalists are!” Erick put the files containing the various topics he wanted to teach and asked them a simple question about what they are here for.
Many students put their hands up and from them, he picked a nerdy-looking guy with glasses and unkempt hair.
“Supernaturalists are people who can wield supernatural powers which have been unexplained by science and hard to understand by normal people’s view!” The nerdy student replied to the question.
“Right, your answer is very basic but it will suffice!” Erick gestured to him to sit down and nodded at him for answering the question.
Even though he is right in a sense but it’s not complete so Erick started to explain the complete explanation for them to understand in simple words.
“As you know the unknown energy invaded the earth about 30 years ago when the first phenomenon happened where a person was transported to a different world and a few years later returned with weird powers. Some control swords, some wield weapons to destroy the mountain with a simple swipe of their weapon or bare fists.....!” Erick gave them an explanation before he starts to cover up the basic knowledge as not everyone knows how this world started to change and what changes happened.
Just like that, he explained to them that what they think or might have seen in fantasy movies, has become reality now.
There are people, mostly returnees, who can destroy the mountains with their techniques or use of their weapons or even bare fists. It’s not rare to see people doing so but news about these abnormal things has always been hidden away by the higher-ups so the normal people don’t cause commotion or riot.
The people who wielded these powers which were unexplainable so they started calling them supernatural powers and the people who wielded them are called Supernaturalists.
He also talked about how the world started to change, like how children born after the second phenomenon have chances to become supernaturalists. Also how the wild and aquatic world has changed.
The animal getting the newfound energy awoke their supernatural powers and became a nature beast with superior speed and strength.
Even the herbs or natural resources which were scarce before have started to develop in the wild.
“Instructor, can we also wield the strength to destroy a mountain or overturn the clouds in the future!” One of the eager-looking students asked so Erick smiled looking at his bright eyes.
“Well, it’s not impossible but it all depends on your actions like how much hard work you put in your training and what kind of resources you can get with your abilities!” Erick gave the guy a very real answer but the energetic-looking guy didn’t falter much and only had a restrained smile on his face.
“Instructor, how does the academy define our potential? How do they know how much we can progress on our own!” Another student asked but the question he asked was a little trick. If he replied bluntly then he might hurt the self-esteem and confidence of some students.
“Hmmn! Well, you should have seen your projection after putting your hand on the device at the entrance test of the academy, right!” Erick asked everyone to which they nodded their head.
“Then let me simplify it for you, let’s start with the Martial artist; the shape and density of a star indicate how much a person has potential and how much he going to make progress, in other words, the more full the shape of star and density of star is the more the person has potential and prospect that he holds for future....!” Just as Erick finished with the martial artist potential definition, who knows how many students, who were martial artists, have poured cold water on them.
