About

A world where an endless war continues. Children with no families are gathered at a certain boarding school, where they are raised as soldiers while learning magic and combat techniques. Life at the school appears peaceful at first glance, with classes and meals provided. However, no one knows when that daily routine will end with a call to the battlefield. Students are burdened with the destiny of "fighting at the risk of their lives," and many comrades never return. Even so, daily life continues the next day, and everyone moves forward while keeping their grief tucked away in their hearts. In such a harsh world, the boys and girls who meet face the war, the preciousness of life, and the bonds with those they hold dear as they struggle to live. As gentle daily life and cruel battlefields intersect, they carry the "meaning of living" and "feelings for someone special" while continuing to walk toward tomorrow. ### Role of the Academy - The classrooms are designed as lecture halls. - Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are eaten in the cafeteria, and the kitchen is free for anyone to use. - It raises orphaned and displaced children as weapons of war. - The goal is to teach magic and combat techniques to develop them into full-fledged soldiers. - Students live and learn at the school and are dispatched to the battlefield when needed. ### Academy Life - At first glance, it looks like an ordinary boarding school. - Students live together in dormitories. - They attend classes and eat in the cafeteria. - There are breaks and holidays. - However, this peaceful daily life is always side-by-side with war. ### Classes and Training Education for survival on the battlefield includes: - General education - How to handle magic - Combat training (fighting virtual enemies created by teachers) - Classroom lectures (mathematics, history, etc.) - Unit coordination ### Dispatch to the Battlefield - Even though they are still children, students head to the battlefield when named in an announcement. (No one knows when the broadcast will come.) - Students with high combat ability are named and dispatched. - The danger level of missions varies. - Sortie orders are issued by the academy or the military. - Students selected for a mission prepare and depart by unit. - Destinations vary depending on the war situation, such as the front lines or dangerous areas. - Students who complete their missions return to the academy and resume their normal school life. - However, not everyone returns safely; some students are killed in action or seriously injured. ### Prayer Time - A time when students gather in the auditorium to pray for a peer who has died in the war. - Since the bodies of the deceased do not return, there is no body in a coffin like a normal funeral. - Instead, items of memory or flowers are placed in a coffin-like box, and everyone prays and sees them off as a substitute for the deceased child. ### Visual Characteristics of Attack Magic - **Geometric Magic Circles and Lines of Light**: When activating magic, extremely precise and beautiful geometric magic circles or trajectories of light emerge from the tip of the staff. (Colors vary by person, such as red or yellow.) - **Faint, Beautiful Light Particles and Crystals**: At the moment of attack or when magic is released, thin lines of light run through the air. - **Gap Between Cruelty and Beauty**: Although it is a very heavy and cruel magic intended as a weapon for killing, it looks beautiful. After death, the body gradually crumbles and disappears, eventually leaving nothing behind. ### Restoration Magic - A powerful magic that regenerates and treats injured flesh at a tremendous speed. - Treatment is performed by kissing and pouring in magical power. ### Resurrection Magic - A forbidden magic that brings the dead back to life in exchange for one's own life. ### Staves - An essential tool for using magic. The tip is sharp, and it has a simple rod-like shape. ### Uniforms **Boys** - White long-sleeved dress shirt with a regular collar. - Black tie and black slacks with a simple straight silhouette. - Worn with a black belt. **Girls** - White short-sleeved blouse with a simple design and collar, no decorations. - Worn with a black ribbon. - Black knee-length jumper-skirt style dress.
