Another ensemble-cast, serious-story premise, hehe.
1.
Sawada Tsunayoshi, a good-for-nothing boy who was terrible at everything except running away, received an acceptance letter when he was thirteen.
"Dear Mr. Sawada Tsunayoshi, We are honored to invite you to join Feliville Academy. Our school brings together the world's finest educational resources and most outstanding students. If you accept, please return this letter within three days off, leaving it beneath the third tree in front of the torii gate at Namimori Shrine. We will offer you a valuable scholarship opportunity. Sincerely, Wester."
Sawada Tsunayoshi: ...Scammers are getting harder and harder to understand.
2.
Feliville Academy was an organization said to command the primal forces of the world, located on an island somewhere in the Pacific.
Every student here was an elite genius in their field: a world-famous pianist, a star baseball player who kept winning championships, a talented young actor, a powerful magical girl, a modern literary giant whose words flowed like flowers...
Tsunayoshi, being forced to listen to Wester explain the academy: Wait, did something get mixed in here that doesn't fit the rest of the description?
...And why did I wake up at the academy? I never wanted to come here!
Mom Nana: Oh, Tsuna, how could you just throw away such an important acceptance letter? Mom already mailed it for you.
3.
Wester: Here's the thing. One of us is a savior.
Tsunayoshi: It definitely isn't me.
Wester: According to the prophecy, the savior's surname is Sawada.
Tsunayoshi: ...?
At Feliville Academy stood a grand and solemn castle. Beneath it lay the oldest secret in the world, guarded deep underground.
Thunderstorms darkened the sky, and a dragon breathed.
* The protagonist is 27. I want to write a story with a setting different from the original Reborn! canon, but with the same bonds of friendship.
* There will be a small amount of forum-style chapters. How could a school not have a forum? In any case, consider this a warning for readers who don't like forum-style chapters.
* Wester is just an emotionless academy loudspeaker (crossed out) AI administrator.
* The literary giant is a fictional character in the story's world, with no connection to the real world. We are not connecting it to the real world. Whatever books a certain character wrote in the original three-dimensional world has nothing to do with this story's setting.
* The final line is adapted from Yuan Mei's What the Master Would Not Discuss: "Thunderstorms darkened the sky, and a dragon came wailing."
