Dabi tell zen and Elena, these Nobel and wealthy people always make others fight.
That why they dint have fighting experience.
"That's typical for nobles. They train in controlled environnts, but when it cos to real combat, they're out of their depth."
Zen says not all Nobel are like that.So have much more battle experience than us. They are few, but they exits.
Don't talk so loud, Elena said!
Dabi you and are commoners, they might cause trouble for us if they hear us talking.
Zens laugh at that statent.
Elena said what do you know zen.
You always had a safe childhood.
Dabi says. Ok ok. Let's wait for teachers.
As they waited for the teachers to give their evaluations, Dabi glanced over at the group of students.
This was only the beginning of the test, and he had a feeling the rest of the day would be just as eventful.
As the sun began to set, the final test concluded.
Dabi watched as the noble students gathered around, their expressions a mix of relief and anticipation.
The teachers were huddled together, discussing the students' performances.
It had been a long day, and the students were clearly exhausted, but the real test hadn't even started yet.
After several minutes, one of the teachers, Professor Miran, stepped forward, addressing the group with a firm but asured tone.
"Congratulations to all of you," she began. "You've successfully completed this portion of the exam.
Based on your performance, you will all be enrolled in Astral Haven Academy."
The noble students murmured among themselves, so smiling with satisfaction, while others remained more reserved, unsure of what was to co.
Dabi crossed his arms, observing the group. This wasn't the usual route into the academy, and he knew many of these students had failed the regular admission process for various reasons.
"But," Professor Miran continued, her voice cutting through the chatter, "enrollnt into the academy cos with certain responsibilities.
As you may already know, every student must have a record of clearing at least one dinsion gate. For many of you, that will be the next step."
Dabi raised an eyebrow. He hadn't been briefed on this part of the process.
It seed the academy was putting a lot of trust in him to guide these students through sothing as dangerous as a dinsion gate.
He glanced over at Zen and Elena, both of whom looked equally curious about how this would unfold.
Professor Miran continued, "So of you may have awakened late, while others may have abilities that are not suited for direct combat.
So of you failed the entrance exam for various reasons.
Regardless of the circumstances, you are now being given a second chance to prove your worth.
But make no mistake, this is not an easy path. You will be entering a dinsion gate under the guidance of Dabi."
At the ntion of his na, all eyes turned to Dabi.
He stood straight, his expression calm and unreadable, though inside, he felt the weight of responsibility settling on his shoulders.
Professor Miran nodded toward Dabi. "He will be your guide.
His task is to ensure you return safely, but make no mistake your success or failure in clearing the gate will be your own."
The nobles exchanged nervous glances. While so seed eager for the challenge, others were visibly anxious.
Dabi could tell that, despite their training and wealth, many of them were unprepared for the dangers that lay beyond the dinsion gates.
Zen leaned over to Dabi and whispered, "Looks like you've got a babysitting job after all."
Dabi smirked but didn't reply. His mind was already racing, thinking about how to handle this new task.
These students had failed for a reason, and leading them through a dinsion gate was no small feat. It required coordination, battle readiness, and, above all, survival skills.
Professor Miran gave Dabi a small nod of acknowledgnt before addressing the students one last ti.
"You will have a few days to prepare before entering the gate.
Use that ti wisely. Make sure your equipnt is in order, your spells are prepared, and your minds are focused.
Failure is not an option."
With that, she dismissed the group, and the students began to disperse, talking among themselves, so already making plans on how to prepare.
Dabi remained where he stood, deep in thought.
He knew the responsibility that had just been placed on him wasn't just about guiding them it was about ensuring they survived.
Zen clapped a hand on Dabi's shoulder, pulling him from his thoughts.
"Looks like you've got your work cut out for you. Think they'll make it?"
Dabi sighed. "It's not about if they make it it's about how many of them don't."
Elena approached, her usual calm expression in place. "Dinsion gates aren't forgiving.
Even with a guide, they'll have to face the reality of what it ans to survive out there."
Dabi nodded. He'd seen what happened to those who weren't prepared.
Dinsion gates were unpredictable, full of dangerous creatures and traps.
These students, despite their wealth and status, weren't immune to the harsh reality that awaited them.
Zen grinned. "Well, at least it'll be interesting. I'll make sure to watch from the sidelines."
"You're not getting out of this," Dabi replied, his tone serious but with a hint of amusent. "I'll need all the help I can get. You and Elena are coming with ."
Elena smiled slightly. "It's not like we'd let you do this alone."
The three of them stood in silence for a mont, watching as the nobles continued to prepare.
Dabi knew that this mission wasn't just a test for the students it was a test for him too. He had to prove that he could lead, protect, and guide, not just himself but others.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the academy grounds, Dabi turned to Zen and Elena.
"Let's get ready. We're entering the gate in...."
