I don't exactly know what you don't understand, so I'll try to resume First, you have Paul's point of view. A soldier leads them towards the academy, but he is afraid of him because he looks like a bandit. Then, the scene takes place in the caravans. Adrien is thinking about his future plans with 3 pieces of information: -he plans to educate his servants into public officers that will help him, and, while building up his strength, maybe recruit more talents. -The talents of one's body are ranked as follows: 1-3 = normal, 4-6 good, 7-9 excellent, 10-12 extraordinary. But, you can also measure a soul's strength or one's understanding. The strength is divided into 5 ranks, and he became a fifth rank soldier, one of the strongest. -he thinks about the Red Star: to escape his past, it had helped him. Legends say it has diffused mana into their world, so he doesn't understand why it wouldn't have killed his enemy and just made him come back, and he theorizes about it. Then, they are being attacked. One rank 1 could kill 70 soldiers' avatars (they don't fight with their bodies but with human-like mannequins. Finally, he reveals that the main purpose of the first year of the academy isn't to train them or give them chance. But because their society needs a small number of elites who will get the resources. And that this year serves to prove they absolutely don't have the capacities or wills to become a soldier.
