"Today"s your first day of school, is everyone ready?" Kurt asked "Of course," Replied Serena
"No problems here" Said Eleanor
Meanwhile me and Ariel just nodded.
"Very well, unfortunately I cannot go with you as I am not a student, but I"m certain we"ll meet each other soon" Said Kurt
"I"m sure we will" I replied
"Eleanor, you"ll be moving in to the dorm so don"t lose your luggage" He said
"I won"t, we"re heading straight there after all." she replied
All of our luggage was on the carriage, I could"ve flown us there, but it was too risky
"John, take good care of her"
"We will" Replied Serena
"Haha, thank you. Ah, That reminds me..."
Kurt then whispered something into my ear before the carriage began to move
"Wh?!" I unintentionally let out after processing what he said
"Study hard!" He said as he waved from a far

We went through the fields, then eventually entered a district near the shopping district we usually went to and there stood a person waiting for us
"Your names?" He asked
After the exams were over, we put in our names on the sheets that they gave us, it wasn"t a contract sheet, just an identification one.
We told him our names and he confirmed them
"Alright"
After he said that, he turned around and stretched out his hand, before chanting
Unlike that time with Eleanor, I couldn"t understand his chant. Why? Could magicians have something which makes their chant incomprehensible? I feel like I"ve heard of it somewhere but I can"t remember, I"ll have to ask Serena later
When his chant was finished, a blue gate was formed.
"This gate will lead you 4 to the school."
"The school isn"t in the kingdom?" I asked
If it isn"t how will I get to meet up with master?
"It is, but this is the easiest way of getting there." He said
"Ah, thanks..."
Darn, if I miss master"s lesson I feel like I"ll be in trouble, even if I already warned her ahead of time.
Is everyone ready?" He asked
We all nodded
We"re the only students here, either there are other places with portals or there are separate days for other students. Either way, the reason why we ended up coming together was because we asked them after the exams.
When pa.s.sed through, we ended up inside of a really big room. The floor was squeaky clean and so were the walls. The lights on the ceiling were bright and illuminated the whole room.
"Where are we?"
"Oh it looks nice"
"So we"re inside of the school?"
The students around us started talking, it seemed like it was also their first time inside the school.
"Silence" Said one of the teachers
She wore gla.s.ses which covered her red eyes and had red hair which was tied up in a pony tail. She wore a uniform which seemed very well crafted
Everyone quieted down
"It appears that we"re missing one more student, we"ll give him another minute, if he"s late then he"ll have to try again next year." Said the teacher
There was only a single teacher here, and two guards around our group. There were around 60 students here, but It was just a rough guess
Everyone was quiet, they could tell that she was a strict teacher, misbehaving on the first day didn"t seem like a good idea
"10 seconds left... It looks like we"ll move on without the last student"
The instant she said that, a student came out of the portal which was behind us
A boy, he had short brown spiky hair and a band aid on each side of his cheek. His left eye was brown while his right eye was a bright yellow.
His frame sort of like mine, not too big but not small either. He was a bit taller than me and his s.h.i.+rt was a bit slightly unb.u.t.toned
Before saying anything he looked around, everyone"s attention was on him.
"Oh, looks like we"ve already started, sorry I"m late" He said with a smile
Huh? For a moment it looked like he was looking at me.
"Oh c.r.a.p, this guys in trouble..."
"He turns up late and starts acting like nothings wrong..."
"Ah, I"m scared..."
The teacher, seemed p.i.s.sed.
"Tch, let"s begin the tour" She said before she turned and started walking
Did she just click her tongue? If she"s that mad why not punish him? I don"t recall seeing his face in the exam, His appearance would have definitely stood out, maybe he wasn"t one of the partic.i.p.ants? If so... then who is he?
Without saying anything else, the students followed the teacher.
As we walked out of the giant room, we entered a windowed illuminated by the sunlight which pa.s.sed through the windows.
As the students looked outside of the window, they could see a field.
"That is the training field" Said the teacher
Training field... now that she mentioned it, there were a few people who seemed the be practising against each other
"Hey, john?" Said a familiar voice
I turned to see who it was and it was victor
"Victor?"
"Why do you look so surprised?"
After he said that, I looked around. And surprisingly enough, all the alpha cla.s.s members were here, no wait, why wouldn"t they be?
More importantly, was he always this friendly?
"Ah, my bad, I just thought you might have had a grudge against me"
"Why would I?"
"N-Nevermind"
The teacher continued to show us around the school and we didn"t say anything else to each other. Or rather, we could feel the teacher"s pressure.
The school was big, the canteen was big, the cla.s.srooms were big, everything was big. As we were given a tour, the only thing on my mind was "How can they afford all of this?"
That being said, it was surprisingly normal, less futuristic than I imagined, but the technology was just as advanced as atlas, if not more. Being educated here looked like it would be worth it.
