The Elite Academy is not for Me

Examination results

’ You don’t know how to use magic?’’ dad asked, with a dumbfounded face.

‘’ No! I don’t know.’’

I thought it was important to tell him that. Let’s see what his reaction is after this.

He gave a serious face back to me. His shoulders stiffened.

‘’ Now that’s a reason for grave concern. Isn’t it?’’

I was getting afraid of what he was gonna do. But then he was stroking my head, roughly.

‘’ Dad, what are you doing old man?’’ I yelled out of irritation.

‘’ This is what you deserve for playing with me. You are the daughter of both Lindell and Katrina. How can you say you can’t use magic? You must be joking. I don’t have time for jokes at all. Now, pack your things. I have to take care of the paperwork. So see you later.’’

Dad got up from the bed, heading out of the door before I could call him back.

Dad, will you listen to me at least? Why’s he not getting that I’m nothing more than an ordinary human?.

how will be able to use magic in front of so many people? Does he take me for a fool?.

Someone put a little bit of sense into my head. Do I have to go to the magic academy after all? Or maybe I can convince him before the opening ceremony?.

Yeah, I have time after all. I’m a genius. I can do that.

Another world, don’t think that I’m gonna give up so easily. I’m Reina, the undefeated Neet and gamer. Don’t think your tricks will have any effect on me.

After that, I had tried so many ways to convince dad that I won’t be going to the academy. But he didn’t want to agree with me at all.

Like that one day passed by. My clothes and everything were sent to the hostel of the academy.

Now I only have the night to convince him, which I will be doing that at night As he didn’t come home all day.

The maid served the food and called for us. I went to the table with my head held high.

My dad was sitting in front of me with some kind of an article in his hands.

I swiftly take my seat and wait for the maid to bring us the food. Taking this chance, I’ll be talking with dad.

‘’ Dad,’’ I called in a low voice.

‘’ Yes?’’ he replied, without putting down the article.

‘’ I have something important to talk about with you. Do you mind listening to me?’’.

‘’ I already know what you wanna talk about. It’s about the Magic academy isn’t it?’’.

‘’ How do you know?’’.

Dad puts away the article besides him on the table.

Then stare at me, looking for pity back to me.

‘’ Sweetie, I had been your dad even before you were born. So I have more experience than you. In these two days, all you have talked about with me is how you don’t have to go there as you are already educated so much. There’s no need to repeat so much back is there?’’.

‘’ If you already know then why are you still holding onto that matter?’’ I yelled standing up in my seat.

‘’ Why are you bent on sending me to the Academy?’’.

‘’Cause this will help you to go forward in life. Why don’t you understand that all of this is for your good? Why don’t you understand?’’ dad yelled back, slapping on the table.

Our voices could have been heard all around the room. The maid could hear it very much clear as well.

‘’ You are going to the Academy no matter what. Even if the world is destroyed you will go, and this is final. You understand?’’.

He was pointing at me while saying that.

‘’ Do my wishes have nothing to do with you? Do I mean nothing to you? Why can’t I just stay at home instead of going to the academy?’’ I also yelled back.

‘’ Enough! I don’t want to hear anything about this matter at all. Listen carefully.’’

‘’ Unless you go to the academy and graduate without any problems I, Lindell Jordan, will disown you as my daughter. You can live on your own afterward. And I won’t be giving you any money at all to live. In this cruel world, you can live by yourself.’’

‘’ I bet this is the perfect ending for you isn’t it, my daughter Reina? How do you like that?’’ he asked crossing his hands in front of his chest.

‘’ W-what?’’ I could hardly believe what he said.

It took me a minute to process that matter into my head,

The maid brought the food, then dad ate and I just sat on the table watching the food in front of me.

My second dad is gonna disown me unless I graduate from the academy? This may be one of the most unfortunate things that can happen to anyone.

I hate you Isekai! ( Another world).

But even if I hate it, I have to face the reality that I am forced to stay in this place. 

Why did I have to die and have to come back to life once again only to go back to Academy once again? What kind of play is this god that you are playing with me in this place? Will life kill me once again with this stupid thing that it's playing with me? 

Will I have to die again? 

All of a sudden the face of my Dad and Mom flashed into my mind, crying with eyes full of tears. 

My heart almost stopped beating when that happened. No, I can't die, I can't die like this again. I am given a second chance. I need to make good use of it. 

I have to, no matter what.
