Chapter 49: Afternoon Class (1)
"Ely, what are you looking at there? Holy Cathedral?" Evelyn was a little confused when Elysia paused while looking at the majestic building in the distance.
"It is nothing." Elysia immediately shook her head slightly and continued her steps and Evelyn immediately followed her to the main academy building.
When looking at the Holy Cathedral in the distance, a friendly and quite strange grandfather comes to her mind, the same grandfather she met on the first day while at the library who asked her to call him Grandpa.
Who would have thought that the grandparents were the only Pope on the Human Continent, a man who was said to be the strongest human alive. His story is legendary and Elysia discovered the history when she was browsing a story about the church and clergy in the library on the second day.
It has been hundreds of years since its existence has ceased to appear in the public and history only says the Pope was silent in the Holy Cathedral trying to rise to a state of divinity.
'Lil Ely, are you thinking about that grandpa who turns out to be Pope?' Elena also looked at the Holy Cathedral with a few thoughts just a moment ago.
'Yes, I still don't expect that Jovial Grandpa is the Pope. I thought he was an Emperor in this kingdom.'
'Em... So there is more than one person with the power of the Emperor staying here. At least in this Aeddoterra Kingdom, we can feel calm and peaceful. Historically, wars that have occurred are so scary as to be a story. This kingdom and this city were the safest places on this continent. '
Elena shivered a little when she remembered the history book they read together at the library. The wars between the races, especially with the demon races and the human race have been going on so brutally for the past thousands of years.
Unlike other races that still want to make a ceasefire from the large-scale war with the condition that the foreign races don't touch their respective continents, only the devil race and human race remained hostile. They just can't stand still if there's no war between each other.
Although the races still discriminated against each other with enmity and did not accept each other by exclusion, while the hatred between the human race and the devil race had become too deep and way too thick to be melted into a ceasefire from the large-scale war.
The continents in Vrelenia have been separated based on the races of their inhabitants, with Beast Race being the most flexible.
Beasts without good talent would want to establish a spiritual connection with a master of their choice so that their talent would increase and have the opportunity to become Spirit Beasts in exchange for lifelong service to their master.
Because of that, the Beast Race was scattered in so many places without any objections in this chaotic world.
'I'm glad we started here. At the very least, there was no war in the Holy Central Region under this Aeddoterra Kingdom's rule. 'Elysia breathed a sigh of relief at the starting place she had chosen to start her journey in this new world.
'Hehe... That's good for you, I'm happy too. 'Elena giggled a little.
Their return trip to the academy building was quick, then Elysia and Evelyn continued on to the class they needed to attend.
A large room built like an auditorium room welcomed Elysia when she entered the room. Several students are already waiting while talking to each other. Elysia looked at the students for a moment and found four acquaintances she had just made a while ago.
"Hi. The four of you came back here very quickly. I just changed my school uniforms and you've arrived here." Elysia went to say hello after heading to the row of chairs in the middle.
"Oh, hello, Miss Elysia. We're just too excited for the afternoon class." Joanna waved her hand at Elysia.
"We're early." Betty tweeted a short beat.
"Even though this time it's only introductions of new students and guidance from the teacher." Lana added to complement while placing her upper body on the table and stretching her arms.
"Miss Elysia, have you visited your dorm?" Maggie asked with a smile as she looked at Evelyn who was standing right behind Elysia.
"I've visited my dorm. Evelyn, they are new students I just met at the opening ceremony." Elysia sat beside the four girls and Evelyn followed Elysia to sit beside her.
"Greetings, my name is Evelyn Mitchell."
Evelyn greeted her potential friend in a friendly manner. She was quite happy because she made some friends on her first day at the academy after labeling Elysia as her best friend.
The four cheerful girls then introduced themselves in turn to the blonde-haired girl. They also felt happy, on this first day they had friendly acquaintances with two aristocrats.
The long table in the row of seats was filled with six girls chatting lightly about their experiences and the brief information they knew about the academy.
Since the academy banned aristocratic rule and made an equal status for all of the students, it was also the duty of the young blood to find someone they could trust in their nine years of studying at the academy.
New students will be happy to spread their connections without fear of status or rank because what they are looking for are talent and personality. In addition to gaining knowledge, they will choose people who are reliable and trustworthy.
By ingrained customs, students will look for their chosen people to share stories of the future. Whether in the form of soul mates, confidants, partners, friends, or acquaintances. They will actively recruit or join someone to help each other even when they get old.
The most effective method already used by many people and higher-ups in the Human Continent was to search for people they could trust starting from their youth at the academy, the very beginning of their careers.
The six of them chatted lightly in the middle row without caring about their surroundings. The new students who had just come to the auditorium room looked at them with various different gazes. Starting from being amazed, fascinated, and stunned but more focused on the two girls sitting at the innermost part of the entrance.
Elysia and Evelyn who giggled with grace were so charming, especially to Brian who had just arrived with David.
Brian immediately came out of his trance and hit David next to him then gave a hand gesture that indicated to sit near the group of beautiful girls who had two very high-class beauty.
David nodded in understanding and followed his boss to the higher row of seats right behind the girls who were lightly chatting.
"Hello ladies, beautiful day for all of us." Brian brushed his hair back in cool pomp.
"Oh, hi!" The indiscriminate and selfless Joanna greeted him back.
"Mr. Brian and Mr. David, long time no see." Elysia looked at the two men who approached and turned out to be two acquaintances she met at the restaurant three days ago.
"Ah, yes! Long time no see O beautiful girl who hasn't left her name to me. You owe me your name. *sparkle*" Brian blinked flirtatiously then smiled brightly with a gleam from his teeth that got a light reflection out of nowhere.
He had learned a more hopeful approach in the past three days when David wasn't paying attention because he wanted to always be assumed to know many things and be a reliable boss. Since Brian has said he has the technique of flirting with girls, then he has to learn the technique and master it.
