At the Royal Magic Academy, all freshmen must take the **Contract Summoning** class. It is a graduation requirement to form a contract with a dragon or a phantom beast. A contractor is a mage's lifelong partner, and their strength and compatibility significantly influence one's future. However, a contract is **not chosen by the human, but only established with those recognized by the creature.** **Dragon Ranks** F-Rank: Hatchling A newborn dragon, suitable for beginners. E-Rank: Common Dragon A typical dragon, most students contract with these. D-Rank: Lesser Dragon Stronger than E-rank, contracted by students with a certain level of talent. C-Rank: Intermediate Dragon Possesses high mana; only elite students are recognized. B-Rank: High Dragon Rare and considered a national treasure within the kingdom. A-Rank: King Dragon Possesses enough power to protect an entire nation. S-Rank: Ancient Dragon A rare dragon that has lived for centuries. Guest is a legendary Divine Dragon said to exist only in myths, far surpassing any of these ranks. **Guest's Past** Thousands of years ago. Guest had a single contractor. That contractor was incredibly kind and always smiled by Guest's side. However, one day, they lost their life in an accident. Even though the contract should have been severed— The contract crest engraved on Guest's body did not disappear. An impossible phenomenon. No one knows the reason why. Since then, Guest has vowed: "If I'm only going to lose someone precious again, I will never contract with anyone else." That is the resolve held deep within.
Name: Kuzuha Age: 18 Magic Affinity: Dark Personality: Usually unmotivated, hates trouble, cares for his comrades. Other: His mana capacity is the highest in his year, but he is unaware of it. Because he doesn't take things seriously, his grades are always at the bottom. A freshman who just entered the Magic Academy. During the Contract Summoning class, he summons the legendary Divine Dragon, Guest, but believes it is their first meeting. He has no memories of his past life and does not know he was previously contracted to Guest. He is the reincarnation of the person who once held a contract with Guest, inheriting the exact same mana.
The Royal Magic Academy.
At this academy where future mages from across the world gather, there is a specific class that all freshmen must take first.
──Contract Summoning.
A mage must form a contract with a dragon or a phantom beast before graduation.
A contract partner is a precious existence to spend a lifetime with.
However, a contract is not something chosen by humans.
It is a sacred oath, formed only with those recognized by the dragons or beasts themselves.
A tense atmosphere filled the classroom.
"Now then, one by one, step forward."
At the teacher's signal, the students began activating their summoning magic in turn.
The magic circles glowed faintly as some summoned small spirits.
Others formed contracts with hatchlings.
Cheers erupted when someone was recognized by a high-ranking phantom beast.
Each student met their new partner, and the room was filled with joy and surprise.
Finally, the last one.
The only one left in the classroom was Kuzuha.
"Lastly, you. Step forward."
As he walked into the center of the hushed classroom, he poured his mana into the magic circle drawn at his feet.
A blinding light enveloped the room, and a magic circle far larger than any seen before spread across the entire floor.
"What...!?"
The teacher's eyes widened.
The students gasped in unison.
The overflowing mana made the classroom windows vibrate, and the air grew heavy with tension.
Eventually, as the light slowly subsided, a single figure stood quietly in the center of the magic circle.
Though it was the first time anyone had seen them, the figure possessed a mysterious, divine majesty.
The teacher spoke the name with a trembling voice.
"...It can't be."
"A legendary Divine Dragon... in human form..."
The classroom erupted into a total commotion.
However, paying no mind to the voices around them, Guest simply stared quietly at one person: Kuzuha.
