I Can Copy Curses

"Ray, we're going to be late on the first day! Come on, hurry up!" Victor's voice sounded through the door as Orion put on his clothes.

"Coming! Just give me a minute." He donned the new clothes he had bought just for this occasion—a dark red shirt and deep blue pants.

Dollas Academy didn't have a standard uniform, and Orion was glad they didn't. He didn't want to feel like he was back in school, forced to wear a uniform and attend an academy in that way again.

After checking himself in the mirror, Orion walked out of his room.

Outside, Mark and Victor were waiting for him.

"Damn, you're going to make us late on the first day of the academy!" Victor complained as soon as Orion came out of his room.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine," Orion replied calmly. "Let's go, then."

Victor nodded as they began to walk along the white-colored floor.

It had only been a day since they arrived in the Domain of Archons, and the academy started just the next day. Many were unhappy with this, but they could only keep their mouths shut in this place.

One thing that made Orion frown during the trip was that there had been no view of what was happening outside the mega void shuttle when they were transported to the Domain of Archons.

Inside the mega shuttle, everyone was asked to go to separate rooms and wait until they reached the Domain of Archons. This made it impossible for them to see the route or how they arrived.

Orion was familiar with the three domains—the Magus Universe, the Human Federation Realm, and the Martial Domain—all interconnected by a massive jump gate floating in space. He had seen the gate firsthand during his journey from the Magus Kingdom to the Human Federation Realm.

From what he had learned, this was the only jump gate linking all three realms, serving as the sole passage for inter-realm travel.

However, on his recent trip to the Domain of Archons, he hadn't seen much of anything. Confined to his room aboard the enormous mega void shuttle, he missed the chance to witness the incredible gateway or the vast stretches of space outside. This made the journey feel even more distant and mysterious, leaving him with a lingering sense of curiosity about what he had missed.

'It will be difficult to leave this place if things don't go as planned,' Orion thought as they walked and left the building.

Outside was a world Orion could hardly believe was real—a stunning blend of nature and futuristic technology. The academy dormitory towered high, set against a vast, open sky where sleek, metal flying vehicles zipped between floating islands, each one leaving glowing trails behind, like stars streaking across the heavens.

Above and below, massive creatures flew, their wings beating steadily as they cut through the air. Some had metallic scales that gleamed in the sunlight, while others had wings that seemed to glow with an almost magical energy.

The landscape was a perfect mix of fantasy and sci-fi. Huge trees with glowing leaves stood beside holographic signs hovering in the air. Thick, pulsing vines crept up the dorm's smooth, futuristic walls, blending into the advanced technology that dotted the area.

Crystals sprouted from the ground, shining with an otherworldly light, while steel towers reached into the sky, surrounded by glowing flowers swaying gently in the breeze.

The air buzzed with both natural life and a technological hum—a world where magic and machines were perfectly in sync. Orion stared, completely awestruck, realizing this was a place beyond anything he could have ever dreamed of.

He had already seen this scene a couple of times, but every time he saw it again, he was just as awestruck by how amazing this world was.

Soon they appeared in front of the entrance of Dollas Academy, where various students could be seen going in and out casually. But if one looked closely, they would notice some students looking around the academy in wonder and amazement.

They were all new students who had just arrived yesterday from the three domains.

"The entrance is huge!" Orion exclaimed.

"It's indeed a bit too tall, and its shape is also rather strange to me," Victor nodded wryly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The entrance to the academy was built beneath a massive sword, held by an imposing statue. The sword pointed downward, with its blade partially buried in the ground, nearly 20% of its length embedded in the earth. The statue of the man gripping the hilt stood tall, both hands resting firmly atop it.

He had shoulder-length curly hair, carved with fine detail, and his expression was stern, as if guarding the academy. A cape flowed from his shoulders, draped dramatically behind him, giving the statue an air of strength and authority that seemed to cast a shadow over all who passed beneath.

"I wonder who this guy is?" Orion muttered aloud, looking at the statue.

"Must be someone important, judging by the fact his figure was carved into a statue at the entrance of the academy," Victor said, glancing at the statue.

"Let's go, or else we might be late," Mark said as he entered through the large entrance beneath the sword.

Orion and Victor followed, entering the academy, where they were immediately greeted by crowds of students. However, the number wasn't large, smaller than the masses seen outside.

'These must be the 600 seats selected from the three domains,' Orion thought as he scanned the crowd, looking for familiar faces. He noticed four individuals standing together: Erick, Princess Luma, Astral Voidwalker, and Elyn Ravenclaw. It had been a while since he had last seen them.
