I walked through the gates and into a wide, tree-lined path that wound through a courtyard. The road was paved with limestone, giving it a plain and unadorned appearance.

Sister Dia grinned.

I immediately realised, thanks to this sister's introductions, that the academy was not as simple as I had first assumed.

The academy's school building was placed on the campus's east side. It was a large structure with a total of twelve levels. Upperclassmen would be on the top floors, while freshmen would be on the lower floors. As a Elite first-grader because of my early manifesting, I would be attending classrooms on the separate building located in the north.

"Over there are the administrative offices. Go ahead and report in. Your dorm should be located behind the school. Come find me if you need anything in the future. I'm a first-grader in one of the academy's western classes." Sister Dia said.

"Thank you so much, Big Sister Dia." I expressed my gratitude.

She couldn't help but laugh and smile as she glanced at me. "There's no need to be so reserved. The atmosphere at the academy is excellent. I wish you the best of luck Lil bro. If you do well on these tests, you will receive some advantages. oh right! You are in the Elite first grader, Good for you, you can attend the classes, on my level. okay! Seeya later lil bro! byee!" She replied.

My gaze followed Sister's disappearing figure till I couldn't see her anymore. Only then did I enter the administration building.

The enrollment procedures went down without a hitch thanks to Sister's recommendation.

Two pairs of school uniforms, as well as a dormitory key, were provided free of charge. I wouldn't get any study materials until my first class.

The Registration paper says that, I have been assigned to Elite Junior class. Sister Dia also told me, The prince is also attending the academy, i wonder we could meet sometime. You know, just a Prodigy to Prodigy, haha!

I walked towards the dorm.

I picked up the key, that I received and struck it at the door, opening it.

I had never experienced the dormitory life. It was an entirely new experience for me.

Upon entering the dorm room, I was welcomed by three high beds that required ladders for access with desks and a cabinet beneath them. The entire dorm room was roughly 20 square meters and was extremely clean. The inner two beds were already covered with bedding, apparent that there were people staying there while the remaining one was left empty.

I also saw a note pinned as important on the desk. It said, "You guys from the Elite Junior class live in different dorms. Although everyone is still separated by gender, all of you are allocated at this level. The ladies are on the opposite side while you guys are here. Your rooms are as big as the ordinary junior class six-men dorm, but you have it three to a room. The outer bed and cabinet belong to you. The Student ID's, that contains your identification details, there is a Spatial Ring powered by Spatial Aether Rune and Wrist Band, a internal communications device, powered by Telepathy Aether Rune. These are kept in the respective Desks. We have Be it returning to your dorm, entering classes, utilizing the various school facilities or going to the cafeteria to eat, you will need it. As your situation is rather unique, your communication device has a higher extent of mana. All the facilities in the school will be free for you, including lunch. Best of Luck Young Mages. we have very high hopes for you, By Headmaster Simon Riviera."

So this class consists of a total of 20 boys and 10 girls. I will receive the timetable at noon. I should do my utmost to join everyone according to it. The Elite Junior class will go through at least three tests a year. If one fails to meet the mark and starts falling behind. There is the possibility of being dropped out. After all, this Elite Junior class consists only of the geniuses.

There will be countless representations and competitions for all of you to demonstrate the strength of the school. The only thing the academy wishes, is the youth class to succeed and earn our own reputation to become the elites amongst elites.

And additionally, all of us will enjoy the best treatment in the school, which means all of us will bear the biggest responsibility. well, that's a bummer!

All of these are within the school's plans. When all of us move on to Intermediate grades, the probability of eliminated students will be above 75%, and another half upon moving onto Advanced grades.So, If I do well here, I can graduate and go to the best school in the Continent, Esterrora Academy. Awesome!!

In the end, even a conservative estimate of 10 becoming true elites is considered great!. So all of us will undergo extreme hardships in the following years. Well, I best mentally prepare myself."

Ah! Now that I'm staying in the dorms, I will have to rely on myself for everything and also to maintain good relations with my classmates as I will most probably be staying together for the next few years studying and living together.

So, good or bad, I might as well get along!

I'm hungry! When is the lunch! I need to gobble as many food as possible.

I started to explore my room alone. After unpacking my things.

"Lets see how is my bed feels like!" I climbed onto my bed and spread out my own bed sheets. On top, I discovered that my roommates' beds had tents to separate the two beds, allowing both beds to have their personal spaces. The two tents were identical.

Despite being made of cloth, it gave me a sense of privacy. The school really thought of everything well!

And The letter said something.....Ah! here they are. My ID, Spatial ring! Wow! it is cool!. It had a Silver color. and the last, The Wrist Band! Is this really can be a communication device?

The letter says it and the spatial rings are powered by Telepathy Aether Rune, and Spatial Aether Rune.

According to the book I read in my house, Runes are Mana-condensed Stones that are naturally created by the Mana in the atmosphere. When mana condenses into a stone, it experiences a variety of transformations with the regular elements such as fire, water, earth, and wind. However, after a long period of condensing with mana, the stone takes on the form of Aether rune. Aether runes had different colors based on the element to which they evolved. However, it is said that Aether runes devoid fire, water, and the other two general elements, instead attaining highly uncommon and peculiar Deviant manas. Such as Spatial Mana, Telepathy Mana, and a variety of unknown Deviant manas.

Oh well, I went upon spreading the bed sheets, lying on my own bed felt rather pleasing.

It might have been the excitement over a new environment and the coziness, but me? I actually fell asleep in a moment.

hahah! Talk about tiredness!
