God's Slave: Reincarnated Into an Academy of Heavenly Descendants

Time passed fairly quickly, and before anyone knew it, it was already time for the newcomers to officially raise their classes.

That day, Nolan woke up earlier than usual, around 5:00 in the morning.

What woke him up was none other than Luna, who alerted him of the notification that had been sent to his runic device.

Reading it, Nolan saw that the academy had issued an announcement stating that all newcomers were required to arrive at the school by 8:00 in the morning, or they would face severe penalties.

Nolan didn't know what "severe penalty" really meant, but he also wasn't interested in finding out.

Under Luna's persistent urging, he reluctantly got out of bed.

He had planned to get ready at 6:00, but he had no choice but to rise and dress earlier than intended.

By exactly 6:30 in the morning, Nolan had finished dressing.

He stood before the glass wall in his room, where he could see the reflection of a handsome young man with well combed snowy white hair.

His appearance was striking, more than above average in terms of looks.

He was dressed in a blue shirt, made from high-quality fabric that felt as thick as stone yet light as a feather—something Nolan had never experienced before.

The shirt reached his wrists, its cuffs held by perfectly fitted buttons.

There was a simple one-star emblem on the shirt, marking him as part of the "New Ascendant" hierarchy.

His trousers were sharp and well-fitted, matching the color of his shirt.

"The Ascendant uniform isactually superb,' Nolan thought, even though he wasn't usually fond of uniforms.

Afterward, he grabbed his backpack, which he had already packed two days before and slung it over his shoulder before moving toward the bedroom door.

To his surprise, he found a steaming tray filled with various assortments of food waiting for him.

Opposite it sat Luna, who beckoned him over.

"First days at school are tough, so I'd advise you to fill your stomach before you go," Luna said.

"Don't worry, you still have thirty minutes left."

Nolan, having no reason to refuse, quickly joined her.

Normally, he didn't plan on having breakfast before leaving, preferring to cook once he returned from the academy just like how he usually did in the Newcomer's area.

But Luna had gone out of her way to prepare breakfast for him and he didn't mind twisting his habit for a day for that.

Over the past two days, she had been extraordinarily kind to him.

In twenty minutes, Nolan was done and stood up from his seat, ready to leave.

But Luna stopped him, stepping forward to adjust his shirt collar and zipping up his shirt properly.

"Dress well. You're an Ascendant, not a hoodlum!" Luna chided and Nolan rolled his eyes at her authoritative tone.

"You know, Nolan, you never know who might be watching."

" If you're lucky enough, an instructor might pick you as a personal intern. That would be very good for you and save you a lot of trouble."

"And that actually reminds me, try not to get into any trouble with the Ascendants."

"If you annoy one, you'll be fighting twenty of them soon enough, and you'll likely pay for it with your points and a few broken bones."

"If things go to far, then most probably with your life."

"So don't get into trouble, okay?" she said, concerned.

Nolan nodded half-heartedly but stopped as he noticed her insistence.

"Promise?" she asked with a sweet smile, and Nolan nodded oncr more.

"I'll try my best." He said.

Of course, Nolan himself didn't like trouble but usually, it was never a choice.

"Good. Class finishes at 4:00 in the evening. You'll have me worried if you're not back by 5:00," Luna said.

Nolan nodded obediently, like a good little brother. He knew she wouldn't leave him alone if he didn't. Find more adventures on mvl

"Okay, bye now..." Luna said, stepping aside to allow him to head for the exit.

The glass door opened automatically for Nolan, but before he could leave, Luna called out again.

"Nolan?"

"Yes?" Nolan responded.

"Smile a little. It makes you look more handsome," Luna said.

Nolan couldn't help but smile at that, causing Luna to giggle as he disappeared down the hallway.

The glass door closed behind him.

"I hope everything goes well..." Luna whispered to herself, unconsciously placing her hands on her chest.

She soon forced herself to calm her beating heart. 'He'll be fine. I just know it.'

But no matter how much she tried to assure herself, she was still worried about Nolan.

Stepping out of the dorm building, Nolan checked his runic card, finding that it was exactly 7:00.

He had an hour to get to class, and since he had familiarized himself with the direction a few days ago, he quickly began walking.

Of course, Nolan wasn't the only student heading to class.

Hundreds of students were walking along the road, and unlike him, some had already managed to make friends, gathering in groups and chatting as they walked.

Nolan glanced at his runic device, which displayed a map showing the way to his destination.

Though it looked close on the map, he knew it was farther than it appeared, so he quickened his pace to avoid being late.

Ignoring any conversations happening around him, he focused on reaching class as quickly as possible.

In this manner, Nolan surpassed the majority of the students and soon arrived before the large gates of the Ascendant Teaching Halls.

As he predicted, the barrier that had previously blocked the gates was now gone, and he immediately stepped inside.

Instantly, a powerful wave of Divine Essence hit him, bringing a brilliant smile to his face.

He couldn't use Divine Essence yet, but it certainly made the air in the academy feel lighter and easier to breathe compared to Earth.

It was definitely better.

With a quick look at his map, Nolan located his classroom building among the multitudes of high-rising building in seconds and made his way to the door.
