There was a young girl.
She is a true genius, but because she was born in the Eltram family, she has been discriminated against by people around her since she was born.
The Eltram family was once a leading aristocratic family among magicians, and had a strong influence in the Giant Cellar Atlas Academy, one of the three major departments of the Magic Association. In the heyday of the family, there was even a magician named "Atlasia", which was the highest honor of the Atlas Academy. Those who held this name would represent the will of the academy.
However, no one expected that this prosperity would vanish overnight. A magician named "Atlasia" degenerates and violates the rules of Atlas. He becomes a vampire through external research. As a result, the authority of the Eltram family plummets. They become a declining noble family, carrying a sin that cannot be erased in their lifetime, and are discriminated and rejected by the Atlas Academy for generations.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have gone crazy long ago if they had been in such an environment for a long time, or they would have been left with a deep psychological trauma. But the girl did not do that. While enduring the strange looks, she studied hard, proved herself with excellent grades, and silently atone for the sins of her ancestors.
Just like this person, she worked hard and advanced alone, and finally reached the height that countless alchemists dreamed of but could never reach in their lifetime - Atlas. Like her ancestor who fell into the dead, she was named "Atlasia" and became the only candidate for the dean.
Yes, the only one. If she wasn't the only one, she wouldn't have gotten this title. Because discrimination and exclusion of the Eltram family has become a political correctness, a unique "culture" of the academy. From top to bottom, from instructors to students, they have long been accustomed to looking at people through tinted glasses. In a sense, the atmosphere of Atlas Academy is worse than that of the Clock Tower.
However, God played a huge joke on this group of magicians. In the huge Atlas Academy, she was the only one who had the necessary ability to inherit the academy. It was extremely ironic.
No one expected it.
Students, instructors, and other people related to the academy all lost their composure because of this impossible thing. Everyone's eyes were filled with protest and the gradually spreading panic.
"Atlasia" is not just a title, its authority is second only to the dean. It can grant others the qualifications of instructors and enjoy the same treatment as special envoys.
I really didn't expect that.
It's surprising.
I can't believe it.
It's doubtful.
Can't be forgiven.
Unspeakable accusations filled the girl's surroundings like a curse, but she was not surprised because she was already used to it and just found it boring.
Everything is the same as before, nothing has changed.
Exclusion, isolation. Although she is now in a position where she has the power to exclude others, she will not do so.
The girl was proud, and the Eltram family was also proud. Even if they were called sinners, the Eltram family was a family with noble blood. She would never abuse power for personal reasons. Moreover, the girl had no feelings for these mediocre people, even though those who had rejected her did not believe it.
The girl's relationship with her surroundings is still distant. In the past, it was those around her who distanced themselves from her, but now she is the one who takes the initiative to distance herself from those around her. There is no essential difference.
The girl continued to live alone, as an excellent student, in her own laboratory - let me correct it, there was a little change. After getting the name "Atlassia", she had her own laboratory and could better distance herself from the people around her.
Because no one is necessary to her, there is no need for her to be involved with anyone.
That's what she thought. However, she would occasionally feel a little confused.
Is this really the right thing to do? What is right? What is wrong
With such worries in mind, she accepted the invitation of the church to join the action to fight against vampires. The target of the action was her ancestor - Zepia Eltram Oberon, the thirteenth seat of the "Twenty-seven Ancestors of the Dead Apostles" "Night of Wallachia", the culprit that led to the decline of the Eltram family!
That was three years ago, in 1998, an abnormally hot summer.
The girl's name is Sion, a name that sounds nice both in the East and the West.

"Shion Eltram Atlasia."
Shinji, who is already 13 years old, quickly browses the information in the computer, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
"It's actually her wanted poster. This is really interesting."
In the summer of 1998, the "Night of Wallachia" reappeared, and the church specially organized a group of knights to fight against it. However, the result was horrific, the knights were completely wiped out, and only Shion escaped.
The church and the Atlas Institute are eager for Shion to go back and explain everything. However, the last survivor not only did not go back, but kept avoiding the search personnel sent by both sides, and even violated the taboo of Atlas in the process - exchanging his research results with others. In the Atlas Institute, you can study everything you are interested in, and there are no restrictions on any secular ethics. The only taboo is that you cannot touch it - the liberation of imagination is prohibited, and your own results can only be disclosed to yourself.
Therefore, the Atlas Union Church issued a wanted order. Since the Atlas Academy and the Clock Tower belonged to the same Magic Association, the Clock Tower also provided some cooperation.
The latest news shows that Shion has come to the Far East and is likely to enter Japan. So Lorelei sent an email to Shinji, asking him to help find someone, and attached a document provided by Atlas Institute.
Judging from Lorelaia's attitude that she didn't even make a phone call but only sent an email, she actually didn't care whether Shion could be caught or not. It was just a routine matter. It seems that the relationship between the three major departments of the Magic Association is indeed very ordinary.
but-
"If you knew what kind of state Shion is in now, you wouldn't be so indifferent."
Shinji is relatively familiar with Shion, because she is also one of the heroines of Type-Moon, appearing in the game and the comic of the same name "Melty Blood", which is translated into Chinese as "The Battle of Lost Blood". Although she is the most invisible passerby heroine, and her popularity is not even as good as many supporting roles, she is still the heroine of an independent work after all, and has a comprehensive portrayal.
"Although I know that this world line incorporates all the special elements, I really didn't expect that elements from this fan game would also be incorporated. The story of "Tsukihime" has obviously changed beyond recognition, and one of the key characters of "Blood War" did not participate. I really don't know how the old man of the gem manipulated the timeline..."
After thinking for a while and finding no clue, Shinji simply stopped worrying about it.
"It's fate that this wanted warrant has landed in my hands. I'll go back to Japan. If I don't go back, they may not be able to deal with 'Walachia Nights'. At most, I can protect myself. If I'm not careful, I may be cheated... When I talk about 'Walachia Nights', my right arm hurts. I'll collect some interest first. Elquet, Elquet?"
"Hmm?" The princess, who was dozing on the sofa, turned over in boredom.
"Let's go kill the gangsters."
"who?"
"One of the twenty-seven ancestors, 'Wallachian Nights';!"
"good."
Hearing this name, Elquet felt a little motivated. It had been nearly two years since he woke up, but he hadn't done anything serious.
"But aren't you wanted?"
"They are just a bunch of idiots who are obsessed with the 'flame of the sun'. They have good vision but poor strength, and their greed is so ugly. I really want Karna to see their ugliness. How dare they say they are the descendants of Surya?"
Shinji snorted and closed his laptop.
"If you get in the way again, I will clear the door for Karna!"
PS: Here's a little science. "Melty Blood" is the same as "Melty Blood War", a fan fighting game that was released after "Tsukihime" became popular. Unexpectedly, it also became popular, and was later officially taken over by Tsukihime. This story is a parallel universe to "Tsukihime", but more people are willing to regard it as the continuation of the Princess Goodend line. The story itself is very simple, it's about "Walachia Night" causing trouble, Shion comes to settle things, Jian Shao's side is written in a little more detail, and by the way, I'll show off a bit after a long time, so stay tuned.
