Chapter 44: Opening Ceremony (1)
The morning of the third day has arrived and Elysia wakes up once again from her sleep in the reserved room which is provided such as a hotel room.
She got up from her bed to do some light stretches. After she felt good, she looked for a moment at Vanessa who was curled up on the bed and went to the bathroom to enjoy a warm bath in her fresh morning.
Elysia is much more accustomed to her body now than before. She came out of the bathroom clad in beautiful new clothes to attend the academy opening today.
"Vanessa, wake up. Come on, we have an opening ceremony at the academy. " Elysia shakes Vanessa"s sleeping body.
"Ehm... Is it time for that, master?" Vanessa is still half-conscious, she rubbing her adorable face with her little paw.
"Yes, it is time."
Elysia grabbed the cute white cat"s body and hugged her then they walked out of the room. When she left the room, she looked again at the large hall in the library on the fourth floor, where she spent three days and two nights just learning things.
She has entered frenzy mode several times by using her advanced perception to read much faster which is aided by magic when no one is paying attention to her.
From history to some advanced magic she has read based on existing written records and almost all the information from important books that are useful has been stored in her memory.
The three days and two nights it took Elysia to do all of those feats, starting from getting up early and sleeping late.
After that, she sighed and left there until she came out of the Holy Library which was never empty of visitors and continued her steps towards the Deterry Academy of Magic.
"Oh yes! I forgot to see where my dorm is located! " Elysia muttered excitedly in her mind while taking out a silver card with her academy school insignia.
Elena still hasn"t awakened from her beauty sleep in the Soul Realm at this point and simply can"t respond to Elysia if she hasn"t been awakened.
"Uh? 9AA? Does this mean room 9 in building AA? As I remember, the platinum card is 1A. Eh? I will have a roommate? Hmm... this isn"t the same as the platinum card. Does that mean that the platinum card provides a special room for its owner?"
Elysia muttered blankly with questions that she answered herself without any definite real answers. Then she sighed and didn"t want to wrestle with that thought because she just needed to ask the more knowledgeable ones when the time came.
She put back the silver card and continued her steps until she finally arrived at the academy area.
There can be seen many students in white uniforms heading towards the main school building which is in the center of this area. Magnificent buildings adjacent to each other with a neat and artistic arrangement are the main buildings for students to study.
Elysia also walked towards it because the venue for the new student opening ceremony will be held in the main hall of the main building soon.
She doesn"t need to be afraid of the uniform she doesn"t have because the guidebook states that the uniform will be given after the opening ceremony and new students are officially enrolled in the academy.
"Vanessa, you can go play around while I attend the opening ceremony, but remember the distance between us. Keep a distance of no more than 200 meters if you"re worried that someone will find you."
Elysia placed Vanessa under an obstructed tree when she got close to the main building and no one was looking.
"Yes, master. Because of your energy blanket, I can use my camouflage ability with the help of the wind element without worrying about anything. I think I"ll be fine." Vanessa nodded her head.
"Good girl. We are connected with a spiritual connection, let me know if anything happens to you. See you later." Elysia left there and headed towards the main building.
The lone Vanessa looked right and left before activating her element camouflage. Her existence is already thin due to the energy blanket of her master, and now she can barely be detected by anyone because she is just like any other air.
Vanessa"s current state is an existence that cannot be found if other people don"t pay much attention or touch her directly.
Then the little white cat camouflaged in the air trotted to follow her master to the main building guided by her spiritual connection to her master.
Elysia headed to the main hall which had been prepared by the academy and she followed the other students to confirm their entry permission to the guards by showing her silver card.
The grand main hall with a special stage and rows of chairs neatly arranged in front of the stage which can accommodate thousands of people, there are already many new students who arrive early and sit while waiting for the event to start.
She is a little overwhelmed by this luxurious and bustling sight, she remembers for a moment the time when she first enrolled in the new school year while still on Earth.
After that, she headed for the seat in the middle, a place where some of the girls who looked quite nice and friendly enough to each other at first glance.
"Excuse me, is this seat empty?" Elysia greets the girl who is talking about her life experiences to her friends while pointing her palm on the chair in question.
"Oh! That chair is empty, you can sit there." The girl smiled along with her three friends who were sitting in a row at Elysia.
Elysia rechecked the chair she pointed to make sure it was safe and a.s.sumed that the smiles from the girls were not mischievous smiles but just cheerful smiles.
"If so, thank you. Greetings, my name is Elysia Avery." Elysia politely took a seat and went into a friendly mode for information.
Hearing that the beautiful girl who just introduced herself had a surname and based on the dress she was wearing, it was certain that she was an aristocrat. The four of them were quite happy that their potential new friend was a friendly aristocrat.
"Wow! You are an aristocrat? I"m Joanna, nice to meet you!" The girl Elysia greeted first introduced herself cheerfully.
"I"m Lana."
"Greetings, I"m Maggie."
"My name is, Betty."
One by one they introduced themselves with friendly smiles on their faces.
"I"m a new student here and don"t know much, are you new students in this academy too? Em, you know each other?" Elysia is still smiling, trying to be friendly.
"Yes, we are also new students at this academy."
"We"re dorm friends too."
"We just got to know each other because we were put in the same dorm room."
"This is proof of our ident.i.ty hehe..."
They replied to Elysia"s questions in turn and one of them showed a bronze card with academy insignia.
"Woah... That"s fun. I haven"t come to my dorm yet. Because of you, I became curious about my roommate. My room is 9AA, do you know where it is?" Elysia took out her silver card and double-checked her room name.
"Did you get a silver card? You must be talented! 9AA is room 9 in building AA and that area is not far from our dormitory building." Betty was amazed to see the silver card that Elysia presented.
Elysia didn"t even know their dormitory room or building, but at least she knew that 9AA meant exactly what she expected.
The five of them then continued their light conversation until the seats in the grand hall were filled and the opening ceremony was about to begin.
