Elphida RA. Dynami
Hardly anyone noticed the silver haired teen when she descended the steps to attend the ceremony. Hardly anyone paid any attention to her as well. Almost as if she was invisible.
That was because this girl seemed to lack a visible aura that were otherwise the identification needed by humans. Even without looking, any aura could be felt by any pro efficient Magus and locate the person. But it seemed that Elphida's almost non-existant aura was unable to be detected by most of the greenhorn students, and even the higher ranking ones. It worked well for her though, since she really didn't enjoy being stared at with mocking eyes.
Yes. She wasn't a Guardian, wasn't a Magus, she was just nothing. She had no strength, no magical power either. People just couldn't leave her alone without drilling that into her mind.
Elphida had her arms crossed and was tapping her finger as she waited in line with her squad.
'First Platoon under Leader Daniel Williams, Squad Two, Class E, Rank Cadet, Squad Leader Rey Vandelion.' she repeated over in her head, after memorizing it in her head the past few days when she was alone in her room. Which reminded her... when was her roommate arriving?
She took a glance at the members of her squad, a white haired male with what seemed to be a gauntlet in his hand and two black haired males, one looking rather wirey and unkept, the other was just as slim and had a sword by his belt. Although both of them seemed weak, but Elphida would bet her virginity that they were far more capable than she was. That was an easy victory, seeing as how Elphida could hardly do anything with magic.
Inspection was carried out by a seemingly happy-go-lucky man...who was in fact their General, Daniel Williams. She watched him go around inspecting each student from the squad, a few smiles here and there and a short moment with a Lieutenant ranked student, speaking as if they'd known each other for years.
As expected, the General walked right past her without giving her a second glance. Her presence was totally diminished by the fact that her aura was non-existant. She sighed and tapped her fingers again, glancing down at herself to make sure she seemed presentable despite not being examined.
Elphida had chosen to wear the uniform with a slight adjustment to the pants. While most other students tucked their pants into the inside of their boots, Elphida decided to loosen the edges of the pants, making them fall straight down as if like a smaller hakama. This allowed her to wear her knee-high boots without feeling uncomfortable.
'Just a minor modification. It feels tight and restrictive.' she went through her lines if she was ever questioned about it, though is was partly the truth. She ran a hand through the sheathe of the Archon Academy standard issued sword, hopefully that would prove enough...unless they made her fight.
After waiting, finally the Headmaster arrived. Listening intently to the Headmaster was one thing to Elphida, but hearing those last lines shocked her to the very core.
'No...No way.'
“I regret to inform you all that our beloved Emperor Augustus VI has passed away as of 0617 this morning of apparent heart failure…”
