Chapter 227

TL: Zimmings

A few days later.

I got out of the carriage and grabbed my knees with a sullen face. My legs are trembling.

Adis Academy is where the children of powerful powers would attend, and the admission procedure was quite tricky.

Teleportation could only be used from 300km away from the academy.

Carriage and baggage checks, along with identification checks of prospective students and porters, at the lookout towers every 50 km.

It is forbidden as a magic tool so that the holder of divine power or magic tool cannot use it.

‘It’s more complicated than the entrance procedure in any country.’

If even one of the students gets hurt, it will be the spark of war, so this kind of procedure would be natural.

I understand, but after spending three days in the carriage to get to the school building, I was on the verge of fainting.

Emeline got out of the carriage one step ahead of me and shook her head.

“Blaine, you lack stamina.”

“You’re a monster, Emeline. Besides, I have more magic tools than you. I feel like my stamina is dropping with every breath…….”

“Get used to it. You can’t use it all the time.”

As we were chatting, the coachman approached.

“I will move Lady and Miss Emeline’s luggage to the dormitory.”

Emeline turned towards the coachman with a polite expression.

“Thank you for your offer. My luggage is small, so I’ll move it myself.”

“But-”

“There are only two luggage bags. I’ve already received more favors. More than that, I don’t want to be a burden.”

The savage Emeline refused as usual and picked up her suitcase.

The coachmen, who my aunt had told him to take good care of my friend, looked at me with a puzzled expression.

“Lady…….”

“She said she’s burdened by it, so leave her alone. I won’t say no. I feel like I’m going to die.…….”

As I let out a sigh, the coachman chuckled and began to move the luggage.

Emeline, holding her luggage, looked at the academy gate and said.

“Be strong. This is not a place where the name Dubblede could protect you.”

“Yes. I know.”

I nodded and looked at the inside of the academy seen through the gate.

An artificial river was flowing through the four huge buildings, numerous students in white school uniforms embroidered with golden threads, and the statue of Neliard in the center.

This was the Odis Academy, where those who could climb to the top of the pyramid gathered.

‘Here lay the foundation of the Dubblede Kingdom.’

It was the beginning of a new life.

***

On the day of the entrance ceremony, I headed to the auditorium, where the entrance ceremony was held with Emeline.

As we were about to enter the auditorium, a long, luscious red-haired girl came up to me and waved at Emeline.

“Hello, Miss Leblaine.”

“Hello, so…….”

“This is Sandra. I was sitting next to her at the briefing.”

“Ah, you remembered.”

“Did you prepare well? I struggled because I was not used to living without servants.”

We had a lot of work to do.

Having a briefing session, getting a dormitory room assignment, measuring uniforms, receiving uniforms…

There were so many things to do even on the day of the entrance ceremony. Most of the first-year students heading to the entrance ceremony were pale.

However, Emeline, who has moved between orphanages since childhood, and I, who had been accustomed to doing everything alone in my previous life, have it easier than the other students.

Sandra sighed, covering her cheek with one hand.

“I think I’m homesick. I miss my younger brother so much. He’s three years old. Do you want to see him?”

Sandra showed me a portrait of her brother.

“Wow, he have the same mouth and eyes as Miss Sandra.”

“Right? There’s a big age gap, so he’s like my child. I really want to hear his voice, but I can’t use the communication device here.”

“That’s right. I want to contact others too.”

“From next month onwards, they will be handing out cpmmunication device to students.”

“Is that so?!”

I opened my eyes wide.

‘That’s great. I was frustrated because I couldn’t use the communication device.’

Of course, I couldn’t contact my family, and the place was too large for me even to meet Henry and Isaac.

Above all, I am concerned about the hope mercenary guild. The chairman and Seria are doing well, but some things are difficult to proceed without my decision, so I have to confirm.

“I’m the only one who entered Odis this year in my home country. Please be my friend too.”

“Of course.”

“Oh, forgive me. Miss Leblaine is so famous that I remember her name, but I don’t know the name of the noblewoman yet. If it’s okay with you, can I have your name?”

Emeline replied,

“I am a commoner without any family name.”

“Well, last name is not important anyway. Here, if we call others by their last name, we’ll get a penalty. So what’s your name?”

At Sandra’s words, Emeline gave a humble expression.

“My name is Emeline.”

“Emeline……. It’s a pretty name.”

‘Miss Sandra must be a good person.’

I smiled and pulled Emeline’s hand.

“If it’s okay with you, would you like to have lunch with us? We get to the academy later than the other students, so we do not know many people.”

Sandra clapped her hands and said.

“I’m happy to. Can I invite other people?”

“Of course!”

“Blaine, don’t you think we’re running out of bread?”

“We can get it again from the restaurant.”

“Great. After the entrance ceremony, I’ll go.”

“Don’t do that, the three of us will go together.”

“Good idea, Miss Sandra!”

We entered the entrance ceremony in a friendly atmosphere.

‘It’s a good start.’

As soon as I sat down on the chair, the entrance ceremony started.

The principal’s congratulatory remarks were followed by the introduction of the faculty and notices of cautions that new students should be aware of.

And some students came up on the podium.

They are the students of . In other words, they were the executives of the Odis Academy, the student council.

The place where I, who received the honorary title, will soon enter.

The place is full of golden connections.

“Blaine. Look over there.”

At Emeline’s whisper, I turned my gaze to where she pointed at.

‘Henry, Isaac!’

Henry was smiling as usual, and Isaac looked very bored. As soon as my eyes met both of them, their faces brightened.

In an instant, exclamations erupted from all over the auditorium.

“Isaac! The ghost of the battlefield!”

“Oh my goodness, Henry…….”

I was excited to see the two of them being praised by everyone.

‘I’m so proud!’

While smiling, the exclamation stopped as the last Elysiano Class student came up on the podium.

His light blond hair, sharp nose, and pretty mouth were in harmony.

He’s a man I saw again after three years.

“…… Adrian.”

As I muttered, he took a seat among the students, and the professor introduced him.

“This is Adrian, who will be acting as the president for the first half of the year in place of the absent current student council president.”

‘President? Adrian, you worked hard!’

Among the students of the Elysiano Class on the podium, there was Prince Andre, the son of Empress Yvonne.

I can only imagine what Empress Yvonne would look like if she knew that Adrian had outshined her son and had the role of a president.

The students of the Elysiano Class bowed their heads lightly toward the new students, and the new students bowed in response.

It was a signal that the entrance ceremony was coming to an end soon.

Just then, a man who appeared to be a faculty member walked up to the podium and whispered to the professor holding a magic tool. The professor looked at the man with a puzzled expression. Soon, the coughing professor opened his mouth again.

“In addition, we introduce special admission students.”

Special admission?

The auditorium was noisy again.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Emeline and Sandra had the same puzzled expression on their faces.

“Are there any special admissions students at Odis Academy?”

“It’s my first time hearing about it too.”

I was curious as well.

Odis Academy is the center of attention from all over the world. Rumors are easy to spread like that, but I had never heard of a special student in my previous life.

Thud, thud.

A woman with dark auburn hair appeared with the sound of footsteps.

It’s a person I know very well.

‘Mina……!!’

Mina walked up to the professor and scratched her head.

“That, Jeong Mi…… ah, didn’t they say I can’t use my last name here? I’m Mina. Nice to meet you!”

How did this happen?

Why does Mina appear here?

Henry and Isaac on the podium also looked at her with a hardened faces.

***

As soon as the entrance ceremony was over, I went to Henry and Isaac to check the situation.

As Henry and Isaac, who were in the Elysiano class, were just about to enter the student council room, I shouted.

“Henry, Isaac!”

“Kid!”

“Leblaine?”

I managed to catch both of them.

“How have you been? I was going to visit you before the entrance ceremony, but you didn’t tell me your dormitory number…”

“No, more than that, you remember that person before?”

Henry nodded.

“We had only heard it just now too.”

“What happened?”

“The Elysiano class had a task to find an ancient artifact, and when they found the artifact, it seems that a door where she came from was opened.”

“Then?”

“They asked the temple to check that girl, and it turned out to have the same divine powers like you.”

It seems that the news was delivered late because they did not have a communication device. As I bit my lip, Isaac looked into the student council room with a cold expression.

“We have to do something.”

“Isaac.”

“If you hide it, it will only make things more complicated.”

“…….”

“Kid, listen carefully. That girl’s divine power is said to surpass the power of the Pope. No, it would be more accurate to say that she is the strongest in history.”

“What?”

“The strongest possessor of divine power in history, surpassing the founding emperor… besides, she was born on February 29th.”

I stiffened as Henry sighed and continued.

“Today, they will announce that the second child of fate candidate has appeared.”
