So today is our first day in the academy.
But that doesn't mean today will be our first class.
What, you confused. Let me explain.
So Royal Magic Academy (RMA) has a rule. All students must stay in the academy's dormitory.
And that's why from today onwards we will be living in RMA.
We came to the Academy with everyone except Teach. He had something important to take care of.
Since Mother and Father will be returning tomorrow this was my last meeting with them. Well, we cried and it was hardest to say goodbye to Sylvia but I did it somehow.
Master is going to live in Drachen. He had thought of opening a Dojo of Swordsmanship there. He said the after teaching me he found the fun in teaching others and will be spending his retired life in the dojo.
Anyway, we bid our farewell and went in.
Today there will be no classes. It will be just an entrance ceremony and tour of the Academy and some other stuff.
First, we went to the dormitory office to get the key to our rooms. Apparently unlike I thought every student will give his room. I thought there will two or more students in each room but I think they want to give their own space.
When we reached the office we found Kuril and Cirun there.
|| Hey Cirun
|| Oh! Hey Alven, did you just arrived?
|| Yeah
|| Good Morning Alven and Michi
|| Good morning Kuril
|| Good Morning
|| So you two are going to the office to get the key of your rooms
Cirun asked
|| Yes. Are you also going there?
|| Yes
|| Then let's go together.
The office was not like I imagined it to be. It was less like an office and more like a reception. There was five counter where students were going to receive their room key.
The room key was not an actual key but a card. This was also our ID, it has our information embedded in it using magic.
|| Hey Alven, what is your room number.
|| It's B-01.
|| Oh, mine is B-02. So our rooms are nearby.
|| Well that's good.
Since the girl's dormitory is separated from Boy's Dormitory so their office is also separated. Kuril and Michi also went to get the key to their room.
After receiving our keys we went to our rooms. The room was fairly big, not cramped at all, it has a closet, single bed, study table, a bookshelf. There was also a bathroom. It was very spacious. The closet only had my School uniform and bookshelf had some school books. All my luggage was in the room. There was also a handbook, it had rules and map of the Academy, along with some other instructions.
I wore my school uniform and went out. I saw Cirun waiting for me outside my room. We then went towards the girl's dormitory, we met with Kuril and Michi on the way. It turned out that their room was also next to each other.
We then directly went to the Academy Hall. Many students were already there, and many were still coming.
The sitting arrangements were according to the rank in the exams. As the first four, we got the front row seats. Of
course, not the very front, it was occupied by the teachers of the Academy and nobles.
After 15 minutes, all the students were in the hall and the Entrance ceremony was started.
First, the teacher welcomed everyone. He then invited the Headmaster on the stage. From the front row a domineering figure stod and went to the stage. He was big and strong, the aura he was releasing was very dominating.
|| Good Morning students. I am the headmaster of Royal Magic Academy, Nayakid Volerd.
Nayakid Volerd, of Volerd family, is a great warrior. Volerd family had a contribution during the war against demons, and even now the member of the Volerd family serves the country as one of the strongest warriors of the country. Even, the headmaster has many great contributions. After his retirement, he inherited the position of the headmaster from his late grandfather. It is said that once he slaughtered 100 soldiers all by himself, after that he was called The Slaughter God.
His voice was very heavy and dominating. Even though he was so far in the stage and wasn't using any microphone, but still it felt like he was talking right next to me.
|| Today is your first day in Academy as the students, and I congratulate everyone to pass the exam. Every year we get more than 800 applications but only 100 of them can attend the RMA. You all must have done a lot of hard work to reach where are you today but don't lose your pace Just because you got selected in the RMA. This was just a small step towards the hard work you all will be going through now. Remember to always give your best. You all have the talent and I know that everyone here can reach a great height and accomplish something big. Now I will end my speech here. Once again congratulations to all of you to make it to the Royal Magic Academy. And best of luck to all of you for your time in RMA.
The speech was finished and that was all for the entrance ceremony. Then everybody went out, there was nothing else special, we were free to either roam around the Academy or go to our room. We chose to roam the Academy to familiarize ourselves with this place.
The first place we visited was the Great Library. We were greeted by an old man at the entrance. He is responsible for guarding this place.
|| Oh, you must be the first years, right.
|| We all greet the teacher.
I said as we do the Namaste Bow to show respect.
|| Oh, no need to show such respect to a weak, old man like me.
He was indeed very old, but by no means he was weak. Even though I can't tell how strong he is but it doesn't make sense that the Great Library, which has many precious books of the country, will be guarded by some "weak" man.
|| Anyway, you know the rules right.
|| Yes, since we are first years we are only allowed on the ground floor, we cannot enter upper floors yet.
|| It seems you are knowledgeable then you can go in.
The Great Library is not an ordinary library, this is one of the treasures of the Rajya. It has a total of six floors. First years can access the ground floor, second-years up to the second floor and Third years can access up to the fifth floor.
The sixth floor, however, is not accessible to any student, not even many teachers of the Academy can access the sixth floor.
When we entered, we felt like we have come to an all-new world. It was not like any normal libraries, I have visited in this and past life.
|| Wow, this is amazing.
Michi said.
|| I had heard that because of a special magic, the environment of the library is perfect for reading books, here you feel at peace, and study without any disturbance.
Kuril said.
|| Yes, this is amazing I feel like I can read books here for a half an hour without getting distracted.
Cirun said.
|| Just how much you hate reading that even here you can only read for half an hour.
|| Hey don't make fun of me.
Even though it's the vacation for Second and Third years but still there were many seniors in the Library. There were also some First years like us.
Since we weren't here for studying we got out after some time.
|| So where should we go next.
I asked
|| Let's go to the training arena.
Cirun said
|| Yes master, let's go to the training ground
|| Oh you two are very excited.
|| Of course, it's the training arena. Many great adventurers have practiced there.
Cirun said
|| Then let's go to the training arena.
