Seirei Gensouki : Spirit Chronicles

As a reward for saving Princess Flora, Rio gets to leave behind his life in the slums and enroll in the Royal Institute! However, the story of a seven-year-old besting an assassin draws the eyes of the adults, while the other students don''t look kindly on a commoner mingling with nobles. Rio has to contend with Charles Arbor, who has fallen out of favor for failing to catch the culprit behind Princess Flora''s kidnapping, as well as Alphonse, a student with sway who refuses to accept a commoner among their ranks. It''s up to Rio to demonstrate his worth in a practice match against Charles and in an outdoor drill with Alphonse. Will Rio be able to graduate safely, or will the pride and prejudice of nobles be too difficult to overcome?
