7 – Entrance Ceremony

The entrance ceremony, like all entrance ceremonies, was boring at first.

Why do you make things like school songs that can only be used at entrance ceremonies or graduation ceremonies?

I was very curious about the face of the person who created the school song in the first place.

I was already worried about Adele right next to me, but I was dying to sing a school song I had never seen before.

Is that the end of singing the school song? Nor was it.

The principal’s admonition that all students hate the most in the world remained.

By tracing the memories of this world, which have not been long, I somehow remembered the memory of the academy principal.

‘His name was… Lapis Lazuli.’

To match the name that comes to mind of any blue jewel, she was a blue-blue person from her hair to her clothes.

‘He’s one of the few remaining 6th circle wizards… I think his main magic was water.’

As if the headmaster of the academy is not for everyone, the headmaster of Lapis was one of the few Archmages of the 6th Circle that currently exist.

“Oh my God, you are the real Lapis.”

“So cool…”

Unlike the other 6th circle archmages who don’t do much, he was an active archmage as the principal of Selenium Academy, and accordingly, the principal’s fans were quite large among the students.

It is said that there are students who enter the school only by looking at the principal, Lapis, so I can feel how popular she is.

However, she had one major flaw even for her seemingly perfect appearance.

“Hello! Everyone! Nice to meet you! I’m Lapis Lazuli, the principal of this academy, and speaking of our academy…”

That means he has a very talkative personality.

‘As far as I remember, I think he said that he only spoke for an hour on the day of the entrance ceremony.’

“Ha ha.”

At the catastrophe of chatter to come, she only sighed.

“······Now let’s talk about the academy, shall we go to the main topic?”

It was 1 hour and 30 minutes after the entrance ceremony started when I really started to tell them the information I needed to attend the academy.

“So boring…”

“Speak quietly, can’t you see there are other teachers nearby?”

It wasn’t until the other students got sick and bored that they couldn’t stand it, and finally they showed signs of getting to the point.

She wondered what she was trying to do by dropping the students on the first day of school.

‘Adele… Is she all right?’

I expected this to be unbearable even for the main character of the novel, but she looked very cheerful when she glanced back at the seat next to her.

I wonder if she is the main character after all. How can you endure such a boring training?

Just like the academy principal isn’t for everyone, the main character isn’t for everyone.

Actually, it was because he didn’t listen to the training and kept staring at Lian, but Lian, who was concentrating so hard in case important information about the academy came out, didn’t know.

“As you may know, our academy is made up of 10 classes.”

“Your first class will be determined by the entrance exam you will take after the entrance ceremony.”

“And the assigned class will change with each semester of the academy, so don’t be disappointed if you are assigned to a lower class, and I hope you will work hard in the academy life.”

After the principal’s explanation, a student who looked impatient raised his hand and asked a question.

“How is the entrance exam going?”

From noble mtl dot com

“If you’re not in such a hurry, don’t worry, Hector Divine.”

The student who was called Hector seemed a little surprised that the headmaster knew his name.

“Are you surprised? As a principal, it is natural for me to memorize students’ names.”

Of course, there are some people who are famous enough to memorize their names even before entering school. The headmaster added, and I could feel the eyes of the nearby students turning to me and Adele.

No, even though Adele is like that, why am I?

‘······Isn’t it, am I worthy of staring at it?’

It was a bit unfair the first time I looked at it, but thinking about it again, it was worth looking at.

Because I didn’t do one or two stupid things until I regained my memory.

Unlike Adele, who has been rumored to be a genius since childhood, I have been rumored to be an idiot since childhood.

“Oh, I didn’t point to a specific student or anything like that.”

‘······Isn’t it too late?’

I feel like I’ve already been exposed to countless gazes and have been stripped naked.

The principal continued to explain, whether he knew how I felt or not.

“Then, I will tell you about the entrance exam that Hector student asked about. The entrance exam is a measure of your magic power.”

As soon as the principal’s words were finished, the students’ murmurs were heard.

“Measure mana? I’m only in 1 circle…”

“I’m in the 2nd circle… But I just got into the 2nd circle.”

It was embarrassing for me too.

Because he didn’t remember anything about the entrance exam.

‘I have only used magic once after awakening my unique magic.’

The circle, which is the realm of magical power, must use a lot of magical power to become stronger and move up to the next level.

The main character, Adele’s ability to rise to the 3rd circle at a young age is not without the influence of her talent, but it was the fruit of her efforts as much as her talent.

I knew Adele’s hard work as I sometimes watched Adele practice and study when I was young.

On the other hand, what about me? After absorbing Adele’s disease, he hadn’t used magic once.

To make an excuse, ‘I don’t know how to use it properly.’ It was, but in reality, I just didn’t try, so I had nothing to say.

‘This is not the growth of the Circle, but it would be fortunate if the Circle did not regress.’

I heard that the circle actually goes down after a long time without using magic. It’s not like it already happened.

A glance-

I glanced at Adele, wondering what he was doing, but his eyes met.

Why is he looking at me? Is it because you don’t like being assigned to the same class?

‘Well, even if I were Adele, I’d feel uncomfortable being in the same class.’

I understand.

Even if you don’t like it personally, you’ll have to continue acting out a friendly engagement in front of others.

There’s nothing more irritating than being forced to do something you don’t want to do, so it was understandable that he hated being in the same class as me.

Being hated by such a pretty fiancee was heartbreaking for her fiancée. What can I do, it’s my karma.

After thinking like that, I reassured Adele, who was presumed to not want to be in the same class as me.

“Don’t worry, you and I tend to have quite a bit of a circle difference, so we won’t be in the same class.”

“······ Huh? No, Lian. I’d rather be with you…”

“With me?”

Why stop talking all of a sudden? Curious

However, to disgrace my desire to anxiously (?) Wait for the next word, Adele ended up using a speech that drove people crazy.

“You and… No, pretend I didn’t hear it.”

“…?”

The world’s most irritating way of speaking is to stop talking.

Really, why is Adele like that today? Originally, Adele wasn’t that kind of person.

‘Maybe it’s the aftereffects of the disease disappearing or something like that.’

If that’s the case, I’m sure you’ll feel sorry for taking the bottle.

Actually, I hurriedly interrupted Adele, thinking that if Undine said that, Lian might notice. Since Adele made Undine visible only to herself because she didn’t want to attract attention from the day of the entrance ceremony, Lian had to fantasize about why Adele was acting like that.

“Anyway, as I said before, the class you are assigned this time is not the class you will continue to go to, so I hope you don’t feel sad if you are placed in a lower class.”

Do you have any more questions? At the principal’s words, a female student with a slightly sharp impression raised her hand.

“Oh, yes, Miss Carina. Do you have any questions?”

“Before coming to the auditorium, she met a senior who called herself a mentor. What kind of system is this mentor?”

After listening to a student named Karina’s question, Principal Lapis spoke with sincere regret.

“Oops, it seems the mentor didn’t explain it well. Miss Karina’s mentor is… Alfred? I checked.”

‘·······That’s it.’

I wonder if senior Alfred is starting to lose his score already.

I felt sorry for the senior who didn’t even know her face.

“The mentor system is an academy’s custom that hopes that you will adapt to the academy as quickly as possible. Literally, for about a month, mentor seniors will stick by your side and explain various things to you to help you adapt to the school. .”

As soon as the principal’s answer was over, another question came in.

“If that’s the case, what should I do if the senior mentor doesn’t help me properly?”

“Clid-kun. Didn’t Clid-kun’s mentor help him properly?”

Then it’s a bit of a problem. I was already scared even though I hadn’t taken a class yet.

Fortunately (?) Unlike senior Alfred earlier, the mentor of a student named Clid did not lose his score.

“It’s not like that, but it’s just in case there are seniors like that.”

“You don’t have to worry. The senior mentors will do their best for you, even for your own score.”

As expected, I think it’s correct that I saw the person straight.

That principal… Is no ordinary bet.

Real circle 6 is not for everyone.

“Then, let’s finish the questioning time, shall we go now to take the entrance exam?”

I followed the headmaster and moved to the entrance examination center.

‘I don’t have the confidence to see it well… But I’m sure it’ll be average.’

For reference, I didn’t have any worries until this point.

I just wanted to relax and do things as usual.

Without knowing what will happen in the entrance exam.
