Welcoming Ceremony pt2

Welcoming Ceremony pt2

Mar 02, 2022

"Alright, you've heard what the old geezer said right? I understand your complaints but as long as you attend this academy, you must always be prepared for the strange things he does. I am Laura Hilene the Academy Secretary. Before we disband I would like to call the student council president to give a speech.”

Hearing that, I inadvertently turned my gaze towards the sound of approaching footsteps. A silver-haired girl stepped forward onto the stage. My gaze was instantly fixed on the girl, her beauty was like magic itself. Her smooth white skin as if made of Pearl, her soft and graceful steps like she is dancing, I can't think of anything other than calling her the Goddess herself.

“Thank you, Professor Laura, introduce me Camelia Von Historia, here I am serving as the Student Council President. I am a second-year student, I hope you all can study and practice your skills as well as possible while in this academy for the next 3 years. On behalf of the senior students, we welcome you, the new batch of this year.

After a few moments of silence, applause began to sound from the stands.

I know this person, I've only seen her from a distance at the royal banquet a few years ago. She is the princess of this kingdom. The princess of the kingdom became the last human gathering place against the cruelty of the Demon King. The girl then bowed and walked to the right beside Shimon. The girl's gaze met mine, but soon her gaze shifted to the man beside me. Seeing that, I tried to look at Shimon's expression but nothing seems to have changed from the look on his face he didn't even look at the princess at all. If I were Shimon I'm sure I would faint near a divine being like her.

"Well, that's the ceremony from the academy, even though it's not like the general welcome. After this, you can search for your name and class displayed in the corridor there, and immediately enter the classroom. The orientation will be held 30 minutes from now, so please disperse”

After that, the students who were in the stands then left the auditorium while we 9 people on stage were detained by Professor Laura

"Well, as the old geezer said, you guys from today will be in the main class. Don't think that you are special, because you will face the hell on earth."

This beautiful teacher suddenly put on a scary expression while fixing the position of her glasses.

"Well hopefully this year's class won't be like last year's trouble maker class"

"Ara Prof Laura, what are you talking about… my classmate and I are good kids, you know"

Another voice interrupted our conversation.

"uh…. Are you still here Camelia?”

“Hu’um, hehe I just want to see my knight here”

Princess Camellia's gaze turned to Shimon whose expression didn't change, it seemed that Shimon was once Princess Camelia's knight.

“You are so cruel, Shimon…. Even though I was deliberately beside you you know….”

"Uhhh…. Alright, what do you want princess?”

Shimon bowed politely in front of the girl. If I say, this is a very unusual sight for me, probably because I've never had a knight or bodyguard before. Hmm or I've had it, I forgot.

“Ufufu no, I just want to see you, it's been a while right…”

“Camelia, you better go back to your class now” (Laura)

"Ahaha, don't be so scary, ma'am…. I get it, have a nice day you all”

The girl then walked gracefully leaving us on the stage.

"Uhhh…. I can't stand being with her."

"Haha I think I found your weakness, Shimon"

"Please don't talk about it..."

I laughed a little seeing the other side of the blonde-haired guy

“Ahem, since the disturbance is gone, let's get back to the point. Your class is a selected class so the lessons you will receive are different from the usual classes. You will be guided based on your magic type, combat style, and magic attributes. So you could say you might have a private mentor here. More details will be explained when it is in class. Your homeroom teacher seems to be waiting there.”

We then followed Professor Laura to our classroom. Surprisingly our classroom seemed to be separated from the grand academy building.

"Hey, Rika..."

"Tia…. Congratulations, I didn't expect you to be chosen too."

"Are you praising or insulting me anyway?"

"I praising you haha"

"Lie"

"I'm not lying..."

"Well then, I was able to pass knowing it was an illusion because the air vibrations produced by the black-cloaked people were different from humans though."

"Ah, I see, you have wind attribute mana anyway..."

"Well even though it's not strong enough to fight anyway..."

"Hah? Are you sure you said that?” (Laura)

"Ehh..." (Rika & Tia)

Suddenly Professor Laura cut off my conversation with Tia. While walking she then told us things that we could never imagine

"What do you mean professor?"

"Have you ever heard of La Verjin?"

La Verjin, when that word was mentioned, I suddenly felt a jolt, I felt I had heard it somewhere, but I didn't know anything about it.

“La Verjin, a title bestowed by the King on a young man 4 years ago. The young man managed to survive the attack of the demon army 8 years ago. He walked from the Tunica region which was far beyond the walls to the capital. Since then he was given the title La Verjin, that's all I know.”

The one who spoke was a brown-haired man, he was slightly taller than Shimon, with a slightly dark complexion. He is Raju. He seems to have quite a broad knowledge.

"Precisely. I can't explain it in detail, but his power is real. He managed to survive for 3 years alone outside the walls, without anyone's help. After crossing the wall 1 year later he arrived at the capital. And the other surprising thing is that he had a duel with the director and it ended in a draw.”

Impossible…. That's impossible, right? I was shocked and couldn't believe what Professor Laura said, nor did everyone else here. I could tell that the director wasn't an ordinary person from the radiance he gave off, so it was impossible for an ordinary person to be able to draw against him. But there was someone who didn't seem surprised to hear that. Shimon looked down and started to say.

"No, that's the truth, I was there when the fight happened"

"Shimon?"

“It was a fight I could never even have imagined. At that time, I, who was 11 years old, went to escort Princess Camelia who was with His Majesty the King to see the person who had come from outside the walls. Director Augusto seemed to want to tease him so they ended up getting into a fight. Such a terrible fight, I don't understand what they were doing during the duel. It was very fast, and scary. And another thing that gave me goosebumps was that person, La Verjin was as if he wasn't in the fight, the air of his existence had completely disappeared. The movement is very fast and unreadable. When he paused for a moment, our gazes met accidentally, it was like I was looking at death itself. I can't imagine that coming from a kid who looks the same age as me. Although the principal also seemed happy to enjoy the fight, several times the principal seemed pressured by him. I was scared and frustrated by the fact that he was a kid who was only a year different from me at the time.”

“Exactly, I was also there when the duel happened. I can't believe someone as strong as the director could be pushed around by a 12-year-old boy. I don't have enough confidence to go head to head against him. I'm sure I'll have to give up one or both of my arms against him. His ability stems from the survival instinct he has after traveling from his devastated territory. He had been out there, a place filled with monsters and demon armies longer than anyone else. He had single-handedly survived there, which even an elite 20-man squad wouldn't be able to hold out for more than a year. Well, maybe that's why he's a very secretive child. Luckily because there is Camelia, we can get to know him a little. He currently attends school here and is in the same class as Camelia. He is the Battle Mage with the wind attribute that you underestimate, His name is Yuora” (Laura)
