Nexus Academy was the number one academy in the human continent and its chancellor being one of the strongest esper. Due to the chancellor, Nexus Academy students were out of reach for the most powerful families and the government.
Nexus had created the best espers in the last one hundred year. So people wouldn't go after Nexus Academy unless they have a death wish.
Nexus Academy being ruled by strength, as long as someone had enough strength, they will be protected by the academy.
Lucas was somewhat gifted, so his family pulled some strings and put him in the academy. As long as he survived the academy for four years, by that time his family will regain their lost strength.
After that they won't have any problems.
Lucas needed to survive in the academy for four years.
No one from outside could touch Lucas without angering the academy.
But,
Lucas being a spoiled brat, he couldn't keep himself out of trouble. He tried to harass another girl in the academy.
Because of this, within the first month of the academy he got into a fight with one of the most talented students in his batch.
Which he ultimately lost and he lost his ability to fight.
The academy won't keep any needless students. So they expelled him.
And right after being expelled, he lost his life at the hands of the maid's sister he assaulted.

Now, Noah was in the body of Lucas, if he didn't change anything and everything goes as before he would die within two months.
"There are many people who want to destroy the Lockhart family, they won't miss this chance when the Lockhart family's patriarch, Lucas's grandfather is absent."
"I guess I don't any other choice but to enter the academy"
Noah knew to survive, he must join the academy.
Just as he was planning what to do next a screen started floating in front of his eyes.
[You have a new message.]
Huh!
'What is this?'
Noah clicked on the screen. A message came in front of him,
[Hey, Noah or should I say Lucas. How are you doing? I hope everything is up to your standards.]
'Standards?'
'I am in someone's body that will be killed for the shit they done'
Noah was pissed what the message said,
[I know, you might be angry or grateful to me. I put you in a body that will be killed soon but before that you have some questions. You remember when I asked you, if you were given the chance to rewrite the story will you do it?]
[You without hesitation replied yes. Now I'm giving you change to rewrite everything. I hope you will reach the ending I couldn't reach.]
[Good Luck]
[Also I gave you a little gift, say 'Status Window' it will be helpful]
Noah read the message, he was angry, disappointed.
'So, I'm stuck here and I need to reach a different ending'
Shit!
Noah was picked up from a peaceful world and thrown into a war. He knew crying over it won't change anything,
For now, his primary goal is to survive and make sure he won't get expelled from the academy.
'Let's see what kind of gift you gave me Ace'

'A status window'
'Not bad'
Noah was surprised with the status window. Knowing his exact strength is always a good thing.
"What a shit stats"
Noah was disappointed with Lucas's stats, Lucas came from a very wealthy and powerful family. If he wanted he could have gotten lot of skills that was helpful instead he got two low rank skill.
Noah had nothing to say.
Whatever, lets just go. I can't miss my ride to the academy.
*******
Noah got himself dressed probably and shortly after he left his hotel room.
He went down to the lobby and get in the car that was waiting for him.
The car ride was quite.
Noah looked outside as the car was going down the city.
The city was a mesmerizing blend of glass and steel. There were skyscrapers that reaching the skies, each one of them featured intricate designs.
The streets were lined with bioluminescent streetlamps that flickered with both electric light and magical glow.
It looked like a city straight out of a science fiction movie.
Soon Noah reached the docking area, from there he will be in a helicopter that will take him to the academy that is in the sky.
Noah board the helicopter and soon it started to takeoff.
Soon it started it's journey to the Nexus Academy.
****
After an hour or so Noah could see the Nexus Academy from his helicopter window.
Nexus Academy is a flying fortress, it's more like a giant floating island in Noah's opinion.
From its obsidian spires to the colosseum it's a monument of power.
The entire academy gave a cold chill down to Noah.
As soon as Noah landed in the academy. He along side with many other students was escorted inside the academy. He found his class information from a nearby helper.
And not surprised, he was in the same class as the rest of the main cast.
'I guess, I don't have any other choice.'
As much as Noah wanted to avoid all the main cast, he couldn't skip today. Today everyone will know each other and they will meet their respective advisor.
Noah already got a bad reputation, he was no interest making it worse.
He managed to find his path in the massive academy.
He finally managed to locate his classroom Class-1A, Noah entered the classroom, he could see many students talking to each other, introducing themselves.
Noah kept his head down and sat in a corner, hoping no one could identify him.
.
.
.
Whoosh!
Soon, the classroom door opened and a beautiful red haired and venomous red eyed women entered the classroom.
Noah knew her. She was Aria Frost. An Ascendant rank esper and she will be the future master of the main character of The Last Horizon, Arthur Nightingale.
Noah listened her speech with very high attention.
Soon Aria left the classroom.
Right after that, an figure stood up and started speaking, he got the entire classroom's attention.
Noah managed to remember him, he was Dean Winchester one of the main casts.
Soon one after another along side others all the main casts introduced themselves.
Soon it was Noah's turn. He was thinking should he introduce himself, his reputation was already bad anything else he might die.
With a little hope he got up form his seat, hoping no one would remember or recognize him,
"Hello, I am Lucas Lockhart. I am a Reaver and I like to.."
Before Noah could finish, one of the students from the back said with a loud voice,
"I like to sexually assault womens"
Everyone in the classroom was silent, Noah could feel many peoples glaze on him. His little hope shattered,
'I am very fucked'
To change the atmosphere, Dean stood up and said,
"Okay, Everyone, let's not jump him. We are all classmates, we should keep going with the introduction."
Noah sat down, his life is in a very thin line now.
'I need plan everything now, I need to survive first than I need to change the story outcome'
As everyone was introducing themselves, Noah quietly left the classroom,
After Noah exited the academy building, he started planning,
'Lucas was somewhat gifted, if I work hard I might reach Savant or if I'm lucky even Ascendant rank'
'But that is for the future, first I need a skill that will me from any dangerous situations'
Noah remembered there were some hidden skills in the academy library.
His current goal was to get one of those skills.
