FULL NOVELXO Chapter 54 Entrance Ceremony
The Entrance Ceremony started at eight in the morning at the Auditorium where all the first-year students gathered.
The Headmaster didn't even attend and it was only supervised by Deputy Headmaster Webclair.
During the entrance ceremony, Vale realized that it was only the Headmaster who doesn't like to be called by his last name for some reason. He wanted to be known as Jean and not Hoffman.
In any case, the Deputy Headmaster explained that the Entrance Ceremony should've been in the gymnasium. Unfortunately, an accident occurred and this has to be held in the Auditorium instead.
As for what accident occurred, Vale had no idea what it was.
The speech was quite precise detailing the Academy's mission to provide students access to quality education aside from the Dark Arts. Not only are they being prepared for the world of mysticism but also for the society.
After the speech, the Deputy Headmaster introduced the Representative of the First Year Students.
Apparently, she was recognized to be the most compatible in the Darkness Possession among all the students. During her "possession", she did not experience any pain or rejection in her body. It means that the higher-ups are expecting her to reach the apex of the Arcane Path…
Vale may have a "special physique" according to Mr. Heinz but it certainly can't compare to the physique of the Student Representative…
He then heard a few people whispering how she only had her eyes turn black for a couple of seconds before returning to normal.
'That was impressive then…' Vale thought as his gaze turned to the young blonde girl standing on the stage.
Perhaps due to the uniform, Vale could hardly see any difference from the female students aside from their hairstyle. The majority of the girls have blonde hair followed by those with red and brown. The minority, on the other hand, has black hair and could probably be counted on one hand.
Maya Featherstar completed her speech by ending it with a promise that she'll be a role model student for not only the first-year students but for the whole academy…
"I wonder if she was attacked recently because someone doesn't want her to be a student representative…" Vale muttered softly but unfortunately, the one next to him still heard him.
"Keke… You're quite behind with the news. Although the benefits of being the Student Representative are quite decent, it's not enticing enough for the other nobles to attack her. It was said that she was ambushed by the Masked Moguls…
Vale shifted his gaze to the young man beside him. Although this young man should only be 13 or 14 years old like him, the aura coming from him was quite different. It was similar to the gangsters around the streets of Melthorn City.
This confused him for a bit as he entered his Phantasm State without being noticed.
As expected, this person had also entered the state and even dared to use some Dark Spell to shroud his body—
'Ahh… It's not a Dark Spell… Is it a Mystical Artifact?' Vale mused as he suddenly noticed that the amulet this person was wearing was causing the problem… He then canceled his Phantasm State as he answered the young man.
"I didn't know about that. It's also my first time hearing about the Masked Moguls."
At the very least, the Masked Moguls shouldn't be a special organization run by the 12 Factions or even the 5 Churches…
"We can talk about it later. I'm Chad Bulmung."
"Vale Chambers." Although Vale was curious about the amulet and the Masked Moguls, he didn't ask further as he simply introduced himself.
The two then nodded to each other and at the same time, the Deputy Headmaster finished his closing remarks as he allowed one of the male professors to get on the stage.
He didn't introduce himself and just spoke clearly to everyone.
"Ahem… I will be calling your names one by one as we will be assigning your class… For the First-Year Class 1 under Professor Saullon. Darryl Crane, Shannon Everett, Sheryl Price…"
The professor called all 120 students. Vale Chambers was sent to Class 2 and Chad Bulmung will be joining him as well. Unsurprisingly, the one assigned to their class was Stella Harwin.
Since there is a total of 120 new students, it was divided into four classes with 30 students each.contemporary romance
Vale was actually surprised at first that there are so many students today considering how deadly the Darkness Possession was.
However, he immediately recalled the various families that received the blessing of the… The Featherstar Family is just one of them.
According to the books he read, the founding members of the Dark Arts received some sort of "blessing" that allows them to see through the mysteries of the Arcane Path.
He's unaware of its specifics but knowing that they have an advantage is more than enough.
After the division of class was completed, the Professors led their students to their study classroom at the right wing building of the Academy.
Professor Stella Harwin appears quite amiable so almost all the students felt relaxed and comfortable as they chose their seats.
"I won't be assigning seats. You can take whichever seat is free. You can settle it by yourself." Professor Harwin said as she waited for everyone to find their seat…
Then she handed pamphlets to everyone.
"It is a complete detail of your scheduled subject and the professors assigned to them… As you can see, I will only be teaching two of the subjects there."
At this time, Vale also received a pamphlet with complete detail of their scheduled classes.
