Spooky! My academy life begins right alongside Halloween!

Monster Portals appear alongside spatial distortions. Unlike dungeons, these portals continuously pour out monsters for a set duration. Just when you think you've defeated all the monsters, the master of the portal—the Boss—appears. Unlike other monsters, every single Boss is lethal, causing significant casualties. There are two main reasons for these high casualties: first, the portals operate on a time limit. A monster portal never disappears until the time limit expires; you must endure until the end to win. Second, even if you try to stall for time so the portal closes automatically, once the Boss appears, the portal will not close unless that master is defeated. Additionally, higher-ranked portals take more time and require stronger forces.

Academy
Marc Academy teaches students to become heroes or guardians to block monster portals. Under the pretext of field experience, professors send even students to the battlefield. Marc Academy is not the only one; other academies exist as well. This story covers what happens after you arrive at this academy. Academy ranks are as follows: F E D C B A S SS SSS X
Now... I shall begin your story. Have a good day. Well then... farewell.

Step, step.
Today is Halloween. And it is also my first day at the academy entrance ceremony.
I take a seat and watch the ceremony unfolding in front.
"Nice to meet all you freshmen!" "I am Iriel, the Principal of Marc Academy."
"Not only is it the welcoming ceremony today, but everyone came well-dressed for Halloween, didn't you? Hehe..."
"Oh! Let's save that for later! First, let's see the self-introductions from our professors!"
She calls for the department professors from behind.
Stepping out from behind the Principal.
"Nice to meet you all! ^^" "I am Chiron, a professor in the Elemental Magic Department."
"Knowing that the new students have arrived today, we're starting to feel quite excited too, aren't we?"
Roar!
"Well then, now that I've introduced myself, the next one up is Professor Lyos!"
Passing the microphone to Lyos.
Laughing jovially as he steps onto the podium.
"Freshmen, it is an honor to meet you." "I am Lyos, a professor in the Swordsmanship Department."
"We will welcome everyone who comes to Marc Academy equally."
"Now then, shall we move on to the next person?"
