BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1 01 - Powerless
"Ryan, it's sad to tell you this, but looking at your grades. You will not be able to hold your own in our institution, your magical power appears to be nil... Are you sure you want to become a wanderer?"
"Yes sir! I've thought about it and if I supply the grades with credit, I can get points in the field activities."
Ryan was desperate, yet his voice held a certain optimism. He believed that he could still find a way to stay in the academy.
Sitting in a large leather armchair was Principal Wu Hao. The head of the great travelers' academy of Neodrazzil. His face showed a complex expression, he was a gentleman and giving this kind of news was not his strong suit.
"I can't get you into clearing portals Ryan... Look, if somehow you can at least raise your combat grades, it might be possible to keep you in our institution"
"Mr. Hao! I not looking into having to bury this stupid brat!" Said a female voice, behind both of them.
It was Elyzabeth, a woman with long red hair, and slightly muscular arms. She was wearing a black social suit, open in the chest, with torn sleeves she was showing her defined body. Her breasts were large but remained kind of hidden behind bandages, yet it was still noticeable, it covered only the upper part of her body, leaving her defined abdomen exposed.
Lyza was precisely the one who brought Ryan into this state, after another tragic starting class in magical combat.
"This kid is going to die if he keeps taking my classes, he has no magic power, no mana, no skills, and he doesn't even have a summoning or combat aptitude! Expel this stupid kid!" Lyza shouted, punching the wall angrily.
The teacher then turned around, swinging her long red hair gracefully. Heading for the door, she continued shouting.
I don't need underachievers in my class, take advantage of it while you still have time, and leave the academy.
Turning her face to the principal and Ryan, Lyza cast a violent glare at both of them.
"Throw that kid out."
She then kept walking.
"Wait!" Shouted Ryan, his face was in a cold sweat and his breathing was a little short. The boy was desperate.
The teacher again turned to the two of them, now with an even more aggressive face.
"If my grades improve in the combat discipline I can continue at the academy, right Mr.Hao?"
"Well...if you prove yourself skilled, it is possible. There are travelers who only use magic weapons, but even they have some mana… Well, unfortunately, Lyza is right, for your safety, it is best that you are removed from the academy" Continued the principal, who shrank down the table at Lyza's aggressive stare.
"Don't get hurry, Mr.Hao! I have an idea, I can prove my ability to you both" Ryan cried out, as he looked from one side to the other, watching the faces of the two teachers intently.
"You have no skill brat, one kick from me and you die. Give up your dreams before it takes your life" Lyza said snorting.
"I've wasted enough time here already"
"That's it! A duel! I will face you in a duel, if you continue to imagine that I am unable to stay at the academy after this, I will sign the papers myself to have my enrollment canceled"
Lyza was a stern woman when it came to battles, known in the academy as the Queen of War. She was a five-star traveler, one of the strongest members of the institution. To receive such an offer from a student as weak as Ryan was something that came close to being an insult, yet she had never denied a request to a duel.
"You stupid brat! Fine, I'll finish you off in our next class!" shouted Lyza, leaving the room. You could hear each of her footsteps echoing down the long corridors of that building.
Ryan promptly turned to Principal Hao, who nodded in agreement.
At that moment, it was impossible for Ryan to imagine that in a few days, he would not only dominate Lyza in the duel but also in bed.

'My next class is next week... so I have 7 days.
Ryan was thoughtful as he looked out the window of the bus he was on. It was on his way home. On the street, several giant signs glowed with items and advertisements for travelers' equipment. Swords and potions, as well as dimensional backpacks and talismans.
Ryan had not yet been accepted into the dormitories at the academy, so he had to take a short bus ride every day to a nearby apartment.
Until a figure caught his eye, Damian Smith was standing on one of the signs. A former classmate of Ryan's, who throughout their entire secondary school tormented him.
'He stood out as a prodigy at the Northern Khalazhan academy. How did he...'
Staring at his clenched wrist, Ryan again felt helpless about his future.
Throughout high school, he had planned to enter a Travelers academy, a student center that was active in teaching combat arts, magic, and portal clearing. Early last year he passed with the highest score in history on the theory exam.
He had narrowly made it into the first year, and now he was a week away from getting kicked out of his dream. Ryan Whitemane had no skills, energy, or even connection to the system that ruled the world. To the view of some teachers, perhaps he was a unique study case, the last human unable to receive XP or drops, the last human without any contact with the second world.
Almost two hundred years ago, two huge portals materialized in the center of the western and eastern largest cities of our world. The two gigantic portals had a strong red glow, turning the sky of the whole world with the color of blood. These two portals brought waves of enemies, dragons, goblins, orcs and titans.
This was later known as the first impact.
As soon as the first warriors managed to enter the portal, they found themselves in a gigantic dungeon. After four months of exploration, mankind managed to close the first impact. Once the last monster in that dungeon was killed, the portal disappeared when there were no more travelers inside.
It has been 10 years since the fourth impact happened, but small portals keep appearing. With this issue in mind, travelers emerged. Warriors that walk between the two worlds, clearing dungeons, recovering items, and collecting skills. When the first human killed a creature, a status screen appeared in front of him, it was later that this same concept was used to create the first computers. This gigantic network of magic is called the system, something that for a long time, Ryan was unable to access.
