Novara was ancient its stones laid thousands of years ago, atop the ruins of a forgotten world
The city had survived wars, plagues, and the passage of time itself
At its center stood the Cathedral of Origins, the oldest church known, a symbol of faith and power
In Novara, people did not just worship godsthey worshiped history
The city breathed with the weight of its past, strong yet unforgiving
Life here was harsh but ordered, and behind its walls, every soul played a part.
Orion Academy:
Nestled within Novara's bustling middle district stood Orion Academy an ancient institution as old as the city itself.
Its stone walls, worn by time and countless storms, hid halls where young minds were forged not only in knowledge, but in power
Here, students learned the usual lessonshistory, language, and science but also something far more vital:
the art of understanding and harnessing their own inner energy.
Every day, the academy's classrooms buzzed with lessons on control, focus, and defense-skills necessary to survive in a world shadowed by monsters.
It was a place where strength was tested, patience taught, and destinies shaped.
For many, graduating from Orion was not just a rite of passage; it was the first step toward becoming a hunter-a protector of Novara's fragile peace
Education System:
In Novara, children take a test at age three, administered by the Church. This determines whether they attend regular schools or specialized academies like Orion. The choice shapes their future path from an early age.
It was a quiet, normal day at Orion Academy. Milo stood with his friends, talking calmly as the day began
Milo: 18years old had a medium build not too big, not too thin. His brown hair was slightly long, reaching his neck. His brown eyes held a sharp, determined look, Milo is a calm and brave young man who avoids unnecessary conflicts. He values those close to him and is usually open and friendly with them.
Milo had five close friends at Orion Academy. Each of them had their own personality, making the group balanced and supportive. They spent most of their days together, sharing lessons, training, and the usual school life challenges.
Hirax (milo best friend): was eighteen years old.
He had a strong, solid build, slightly bulkier than most students. His thick black hair hung just above the top of his neck, giving him a look reminiscent of ancient warriors. His brown eyes held a sharp and serious gaze, and his silence alone was enough to make those around him realize he was not someone to be underestimated Hirax is fiercely loyal and protective, especially toward Milo, whom he considers like a brother. He is brave and determined, never backing down from a challenge. Sometimes his boldness makes him act before thinking, but his strong sense of justice and strategic mind guide his actions. Despite his tough exterior, he cares deeply for his friends and values their safety above all else.
Sally Lyn: was eighteen, a bit short with an average build. Her soft pink hair and calm blue eyes gave her a quiet, gentle presence Her soft pink hair gently fell over her shoulders, adding a touch of elegance and uniqueness to her simple appearance Sally was a bit vain and cared a lot about her appearance. She disliked fighting and conflicts, and saw herself as slightly better than others just enough to be confident but not arrogant Sally considered Milo, Hirax, and the other friends as just friends no more, no less.
Solir: was seventeen years old.
He had bright blond hair and deep brown eyes,Solir was shorter than Milo but slightly taller than Sally, with a build similar to Milo's neither too slim nor too bulky, Though he was considered a friend, he wasn't very close to the group, carrying an air of mystery around him Solir was somewhat calm and very serious, He rarely joked and disliked heavy joking. His trust in others was almost nonexistent, and he hated sharing his personal things and information.
Lilithia: eighteen years old, Her long, dark hair and quiet demeanor gave her a mysterious air. She rarely spoke, preferring to think deeply. Though serious most times, she showed a gentle playful side to trusted friends, She loved dark, strange things and often lost herself in music. Independent and private, she kept only a few close friends, Lilithia was somewhat close to Milo and Solir, She was perhaps the closest person to Solir, who was more open with her than with others.
Ryo: seventeen years old
He had black hair, often dyed blond, and brown eyes. Known for his confident and flirtatious nature, he had a particular fondness for girls, frequently trying to win over Sally and Lilithia especially Sally but usually failed, Among the group, his closest bond was with Herax, sharing a strong friendship despite his playful and sometimes vain personality.
This is the relationship between these friends, who spend most of their time together at school as they near their final year before graduation.
The school courtyard was calm in the late afternoon, with students winding down after a long day.
Among them, Milo and Herax stood together, their easy friendship clear in the way they spoke and joked.
Milo smiled and said, "Are you really sure you'll do it?"
Herax grinned confidently, "Watch me!"
He crouched, focused, then tried to balance on a single finger-but his body wobbled, and within seconds, he tumbled to the ground with a heavy thud
Milo smiled, offering him a hand. "It's not easy lifting that heavy body of yours with one finger."
Herax laughed as he rubbed his head. "Yeah, yeah... next time, I'll get it"
As Herax stood up, brushing the dust off his uniform, Milo glanced to the side.
Across the school courtyard, Ryo leaned against a wall, smiling confidently as he tried to get a girl's number.
Milo sighed quietly, "Look, it's Ryo. Doing his usual nonsense again."
Herax looked at Ryo and said, shaking his head with a smile, "That idiot will never change."
Sally called out from across the courtyard, "Hi there, guys!"
Standing beside them "Why are you still standing around like that?"
Ryo called out to Sally from a distance,
"Sally, miss meee???"
Ryo looked at Sally with a happy smile, his cheeks flushed red.
Ryo was surprised to see her looking at him with a disdainful expression.
While the four were talking, Solir appeared beside them with Lilithia, who was wearing headphones
Solir greeted them warmly as the four turned to look at him.
Milo smiled and nodded in response.
Herax held Ryo, ruffling his hair annoyingly while laughing.
Sally asked, "Is my nail polish nice?" then looked over at Solir and Lilithia, waving and greeting them
During their long and lively conversation, Sally grabbed her phone and took a picture of them all, saying, "Cheese!"
Milo glanced at the phone shyly and quietly.
Solir showed no interest in the photo.
Herax was still teasing Ryo.
Ryo laughed, his cheeks flushing slightly as he smiled for the picture.
Lilithia kept her eyes closed, still listening, but she smiled softly, showing her interest in what was happening.
After that, the scene shifts to them leaving through the school gates, talking with one another as they walk.
This is Milo's life before graduation and becoming a monster hunter
living a normal, happy life, ignoring the disasters happening around him.
Milo returned home and opened the door, saying, "I'm back."
His older sister Milina greeted him warmly.
Milina: has long brown hair and long brown eyes, She resembles Milo slightly in features, but her face is kinder and more beautiful, She is 24 years old, six years older than Milo, and carries a maturity and calmness that reflect her life experience
Milo and Milina live together in their home because their mother passed away some time ago, and their father has been away on a mission for four years,
Milo's father, Arthur, is also a very famous hunter, known by many in the city as a hero. Because of him, their family is somewhat well-known.
Milina takes on the responsibility of the family during their father's absence, so she is often busy.
This is the life Milo leads before the trials ahead a life filled with ordinary moments, friendship, and quiet responsibilities. But beyond the walls of Orion Academy and the familiar streets of Novara, a world of danger and destiny awaits him, ready to change everything.
On the other side…
The adventurers fought fiercely against the monsters.
A girl with long black hair stood at the front, skillfully swinging her sword against their enemies.
A large man with a scarred face looked at a timid young man who was almost attacked by a monster and said angrily,
"Focus, you idiot!"
The young man replied shyly, "I'm sorry."
Far from them, a person wearing glasses with red hair was firing beams at the monsters, defeating them.
Another girl attacked the monsters with knives, swiftly cutting their necks and protecting the back of the one with glasses.
The others continued fighting fiercely against the monsters, the clashes ongoing and intense.
