As Hiro and Kyren made their way through the bustling streets of Arramaya's City, they couldn't help but be taken aback by the sheer grandeur and diversity of the place, The city was a vibrant tapestry of different cultures, races, and magical energies—a true melting pot of life and magic, tall spires of ivory and marble adorned the skyline, reaching for the heavens, Elven arches and intricate human architecture coexisted in perfect harmony, a testament to the unity that could be achieved despite their racial differences.
"WOAH! What an incredible sight," Hiro whispered in awe, his eyes wide with wonder, "It's like stepping into a whole new world."
"So that's magic or roots." Kyren thought, while looking at one elf from the distance performing his roots.
As they wandered through the streets, they encountered an array of fascinating sights. Humans adorned in elegant attire went about their tasks, showcasing their tools and creations. Elves practiced their magic, some for entertainment while others taught how to properly wield it, adding to the mystical atmosphere. Every corner of the streets bustled with people engrossed in their own businesses. In the center of the city stood a tall statue, surrounded by different guild aligned in their uniforms, pledging their allegiance to the statue.

As they made their way through the corridors of the Sky Academy, they encountered a man named Carlos, who appeared to be in his early thirties with a friendly demeanor, He wore the emblem of the academy staff on his robe, and his eyes sparkled with wisdom.
Carlos noticed them and approached with a warm smile. "Greetings, young ones," he said in a warm and welcoming tone. "Are you a aspiring warriors trying to enroll here at the academy?"
Kyren and Hiro exchanged glances and nodded "Yes, we are."
"We just arrived in Arramaya's City and are here to enroll in the Sky Academy." Hiro replied.
Carlos nodded approvingly. "Ah, that's wonderful to hear. The academy is a place of great learning and growth. However, I'm sorry to say that this entrance is reserved for enrolled students only." They looked puzzled, unsure of what Carlos meant.
"Then where should we go sir?" Kyren asked.
Carlos chuckled softly. "No need to worry. You're in the right place, but this entrance is typically reserved for officials and major guests."
"It's our pleasure to be guided by you, Mr. Carlos," Hiro said with a grateful smile.
"Being new students, you should head to the main administration building, but this Academy is huge, and it's quite a distance to walk. So, we'll need to take a caravan trip around there," Carlos explained as he led Kyren and Hiro.
Relieved by the clarification, Hiro smiled. "Again, Thanks alot for guiding us, Mr. Carlos. We're a little overwhelmed with everything, but we're excited to start our journey here."
Carlos nodded understandingly. "I can imagine. The beginning of any new journey can be both exciting and overwhelming. But fear not, once you settle in and find your way around, you'll feel right at home." He then gestured to follow him. "Come, let me take you to the administration office. I'll introduce you to some of the staff there, and they will help you with the enrollment process."

He spoke of the diverse classes and courses available, each designed to cater to students' unique talents and interests.

As they progressed in their chosen paths, new tactics, abilities, honed their skills and unlocked greater potential.
"You must carefully consider your strengths and inclinations before choosing your path," Carlo advised them.
"Mastery is not merely about power, but about understanding yourselves and the line or path you wish to play in this world."
Hiro and Kyren exchanged glances, realizing that this was a crucial decision that could shape their futures.
"Thank you so much for the information, Mr. Carlos. We haven't enrolled yet, but we've gained a lot of valuable information from you," Hiro gratefully said.
"In addition, are you curious about the reasons behind the distinctive titles given to renowned figures, such as Rezhura being known as 'The Perfect Knight'? The Arramaya's Legacy Guild is dedicated to cultivating strength in you, aspiring warriors and sorcerers." Carlos is looking at Hiro and Kyren if they are still listening.
"To accomplish this, they establish a classification and tier system based on your documented power levels after each mission. As part of this initiative, they have introduced the concept of incorporating a tier list into the process."
Carlos started to explain the Tier list to get a unique title.
"In the initial and beginner section, your power level that based on the activities and quest you accomplished given from the Arramaya's Legacy Guild is approximately around 1000 activity points in record. At this stage, you possess a basic understanding of utilizing combat and real weapons.
"The subsequent stage is the Forum Section, where your PL reaches approximately 100,000 activity points, enabling you to undertake missions ranging from D to C class independently.
"The third tier is characterized by the Expert Section, which comprises the majority of our population according to our data. In this section, individuals possess a measured of PL approximately 1,000,000, enabling them to assume leadership roles within guilds and undertake High-Risk Missions ranging from B to A level.
"This is the place where you can attain your exclusive title known as the Savior Section. When bestowed with this section by the Arramaya's Legacy Guild, you likely become one of the guardians of our realm, enabling you to directly communicate with the Guild Leaders. Your power level reaches approximately 100,000,000, a rarity possessed by merely 3% of our entire population, marked by their distinct titles.
"The following level is the Legend Section, a distinction bestowed upon individuals who have either halted wars, made significant impacts within our domain, or achieved major goals throughout our realm. Several individuals, including Rezhura, have attained this esteemed tier, and their power level scaled up to 500,000,000.
"The final tier might seem like a mere myth, but achieving the God Section is truly within the realm of possibility. Within this section, one could either ascend as the global dominator or attain a power level reaching up to 1,000,000,000."
Hiro listened intently, feeling his excitement grow with every word.
The academy was even more magnificent than he had imagined, and the prospect of learning from the finest instructors filled him with determination to make the most of his time there.

But for Kyren, his instincts began to stir.

Kyren couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't quite right. He sensed that Carlos was dragging the conversation on longer and longer, perhaps to distract them. As he glanced outside the caravan, he noticed that the air seemed charged with an unsettling energy, and a shiver ran down his spine.
"Hey, Hiro," Kyren whispered, glancing around cautiously.
"Be quiet when I say this, but be cautious and hold your sword."
As they continued their travel, they found themselves in an unfamiliar part of the forest, the trees towered above them, their branches intertwining to create a canopy that filtered the sunlight, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor.
