7 – Orientation
I was guided by Becky and moved to a large lecture hall.
In front of the church. And a wide fan-shaped lecture hall facing it.
The appearance itself is rather ordinary.
It was a very spacious place, but after it was filled with students, it seemed a bit cramped.
I didn’t like having someone on either side of me, so I sat with the wall to my left.
It didn’t matter who sat on the right, but Becky squeezes in and sits down.
I only found out now, but Becky smelled pretty strong of perfume.
She opened her mouth.
“Phew~ But today is an orientation, so I feel a little more at ease.”
“Orientation?”
“Yes. What will be taught in the future, how the evaluation will be conducted, and only that, and that’s it. The first day is like this!”
Having a lot of free time is not a bad thing.
I haven’t even looked at the academy’s situation yet.
Becky continues to stretch.
“Tomorrow we will be divided into classes according to rank… I really need to get some rest today.”
“Divided in half according to grade?”
That word is a bit jarring.
It’s not that I don’t understand how people with similar skills are grouped together and educated.
However, the problem was that the boy was assigned an F grade.
If possible, I want to spend time with the most sophisticated guys.
Of course.
In order to know the level of a certain group, you have to look at their representative.
What level of skill do the best players in this academy have? What are you looking for
I hated spending time with guys who were interested in those things, but had no motivation.
“Is it divided based on the currently assigned grade?”
“No? I’ll do a new test tomorrow.”
If that’s the case, that’s fine. The corners of my mouth go up slightly without even realizing it.
Becky tilts her head.
“It’s just cumbersome. Yes?”
“What.”
“As you said, it’s convenient and good to divide based on the grade you’ve been assigned. It’s an A anyway.”
“Are you A?”
“It was close, but I got an A. Than no, what was the reaction? You are also an A.”
Becky looks this way with a puzzled look on her face.
“No.”
She shook her head. I was F, and there was no reason to lie.
Becky opened his eyes wide and pursed his lips, but he ignored them.
Because I was more interested in the noise around me.
“What did you pass the exam with?”
“Enchantment.”
“Illusion? And that difficult one.”
“Don’t talk. I was so nervous that I thought I was going behind. Failed twice and finally succeeded…”
The inside of the classroom is lively. I didn’t hate this noise that I hadn’t felt in a long time.
“What do you want to do after orientation?”
“Think for yourself.”
“What do you want to do after orientation?”

“…… “
I especially enjoyed these stories. It was fresh because it was usually a conversation of their age.
“What grade did you enter?”
“What am I… not ordinary you?”
“I’m kind of normal too. As you do you?”
However, the lively and welcome emotions soon cool down.
As expected, there were more students engaged in exploration and war of nerves rather than enjoying the friendly atmosphere.
I can’t say it’s bad. Actually, that’s not normal.
Then all of a sudden, Becky pokes me with her index finger.
Then he smiled and tapped his ear with his index finger. It’s like listening to this.
Come to think of it, there was a conversation that could be heard exceptionally clearly.
“Oh, that’s right. By the way, did you see that?”
“What? Ah, I see what you mean.”
“Yes! Agora board!”
Agora board.
An ember lit by someone soon becomes a fire and spreads quickly.
The whole classroom started to be filled with stories about the Agora board.
“Who the hell solved it and how?”
“There was talk of a war of nerves among the professors.”
“I’m getting discouraged for nothing.”
“Everyone please take a seat.”
Then, suddenly, a calm female voice caught my ear.
A woman appeared in front of the classroom.
Her fire, which seemed to never be extinguished, is extinguished by her sudden appearance.
It was literally all of a sudden. It really happened in an instant.
‘Is it a projection?’
It looks like teleportation, but it’s not like he actually came.
It seemed to be a way to reflect one’s own vision and project it in front of the classroom.
In other words, the image of that female professor is projected in front of the freshmen inside every classroom.
After all, a professor is a professor.
Sharp eyes with dark circles.
Long white hair and a cone hat bigger than my head. And even a wide robe.
To be honest, my first impression was more like a witch than a professor.
She looked very strict even when she looked at her.
“This is Violet. I will hold an orientation today.”
There was also a bit of annoyance in her tone.
Then, all of a sudden, she tilts her head on one side and points in one direction with her index finger.
“…… Aren’t you taking off your hat?”
Then, the students who were wearing hats hurriedly took off their hats and put them down.
“Wow, a real old man…”
Becky murmured very softly.
Ugh, after sighing, Violet continues the orientation.
“Tomorrow’s evaluation will be put aside for a moment, today I will look at a few basic things.”
The clutter from earlier has disappeared.
All the students pay attention to her words with their eyes shining.
No, to be precise, I felt like I would get scolded if I didn’t concentrate.
Her clear explanation follows.
“Like this, the achievement of magic is great only when you are equally absorbed in various fields. However, there are several types of magic in total… Was this too basic? You don’t even have to explain.”
Students nodding their heads in perfect order, concentrating on each word of the professor.
A professor who silently does his part.
It’s a little nice to see those movements in perfect order, but also a little unfamiliar.
“Just as reading should precede writing. Before using magic, you must understand the magic formula… “
As I already know, I am not very interested in what the female professor says.
She wants to think of a higher dimension than she does.
Students wearing the same clothes, the sound of spells being written on the blackboard, and students answering in perfect order.
The static of students taking notes, small exclamations as if they realized something, sighs and moans of those who did not realize…
There are no rules, but it seems as if certain rules do exist.
Couldn’t this be expressed in a formula? I think it’ll be pretty fun.
Attribute is nothing.
The number of strokes in the spell is equal to the number of people.
Is the series toward harmony?
Then, mix a little bit of destruction.
Get drunk with thoughts in your head. Swim the endless flight of imagination.
And at the end of it.
Tak.
I accidentally snapped my fingers.
“…… !”
At that moment, the professor disappeared in front of his eyes and all the students were shocked.
This is a mistake.
I was too absorbed. I didn’t even intend to actually interfere, but I disconnected Violet’s projection.
I draw a spell in my head. Quickly restore connection.
“What, Professor, where have you been?”
“Ah, surprise!”
“Is the orientation over?”
After a while, the professor’s vision reappeared.
She looked around at the students with a slightly subtle face.
Then at some point.
“…… “
He puts his eyes on me and stares at me.
When I tried to spit something out of embarrassment.
“… Let me explain.”
She continued the orientation again.
◈
After orientation, students leave the classroom like the ebb tide.
Isn’t today the first day after the welcome party for freshmen?
But even so, they make a lot of noise in groups of three, three, five, and go out of the classroom.
Anyway, play well.
Even if flan fell to another world, he still had no affinity.
Of course, I have no intention of raising it.
He sits still in his seat and thinks about what happened just before.
“Hmm.”
I accidentally cut off the professor’s projection magic, so I’ll have to be careful from now on.
This is not Plan’s personal space. It is a place where many wizards live together.
Anyway, what should I do now?
When he thought of walking around the academy and taking a look at it.
“Don’t you go to class?”
I was puzzled when I heard Becky’s voice all of a sudden.
Rather, I wanted to ask from the plan side.
“Why didn’t you go out?”
“Um… That, because I have something to ask you.”
Plan looked at her quietly. I meant to tell you.
“Did something go wrong at home?”
“Something special?”
“Yes. Because I didn’t get scolded too much. What is that, I think you misunderstood a little bit.”
“Nothing happened.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Saying it was okay, Becky felt embarrassed as he had nothing to say.
You seem like a very strict family, but how can things go wrong?
A moment of silence fell. This time the silence was broken on the flan side.
“Aren’t you going out?”
“Ah, I have to go out. I am going to lunch.”
“Do you eat alone?”
“Then, if you eat alone, eat with someone. You also eat well. See you again.”
Becky hurriedly bowed and left the classroom.
Maybe it was because the action was a bit noisy.
Some of the girls who were chatting in groups stared blankly at Plan.
Plan doesn’t particularly avoid those gazes.
A snowball fight ensued for a while, and soon one of them approached the flan.
“Hey, what are you doing with him?”
“It’s nothing. Why.”
Instead of answering, the girl exchanges glances with her group. And soon burst into laughter.
“He is a commoner.”
“Commoners?”
“Didn’t you know? He is a complete beggar.”
I don’t really care.
But she must have felt more frustrated with the calm face of the flan, so she sat down on the seat next to her and continued her words.
“You wore a lot of perfume at the freshman welcome party. To show poor tea.”
“You talk only to boys. The intention is too obvious.”
“Everyone hates him. Because I don’t know the subject.”
“Hmm.”
It seems that the caste system is widely established in this world as well.
Rather, I became more interested. Because Plan was also born and proved that he was born in a pitiful place.
“I don’t think there will be any problems. I heard that she entered with good grades.”
“The boys would have done it again. Her queen bee. What is that?”
I don’t think it’s that kind of personality.
With serious faces, the girls gossip about Becky.
“Don’t hang out with commoners. If something happens and you find out later, you must be a commoner.”
“Yes, even your family won’t like it very much.”
While listening to those words, she suddenly remembered her promise to Scarlett.
From noble mtl dot com
“… I am not an aristocrat either.”
Plan said with a small smile.
Then, the girls’ expressions hardened in an instant.
“I-Sir… “
An expression as if he saw something dirty. A face that seems like a waste of time.
Around that time, a girl whispers to another girl.
“Hey, come to think of it, that’s him… She confessed to Hailey and then dumped her… “
“What? Oh, is this him? No wonder.”
“Let’s just go.”
Looking at her rapidly distancing girls, Flan shrugged her shoulders.
Originally, he doesn’t care too much about rumors.
After all the girls left and I was left alone in the classroom.
“Shall we take a look?”
He too got up from his seat.
No, I just got up and walked past the back door of the classroom.
“Student.”
Someone stopped him in the hallway.
Violet. Earlier she was a professor.
The man really got his boredom ahead of him HAHAHAHA
