Chapter 302: Ch 305: Starting School Life
On the very first day of the academy, Rein was walking toward the academy ground with two little ladies hugging his arms from the sides. One of the little ladies had a cheerful and happy smile on her face while the other lady had a shy and contented smile on hers. For the other young boys, they were getting extremely jealous of this scene.
But Rein or the ladies did not mind this at all. After becoming high ranking mages, they had already stopped taking these little boys and girls seriously. With a higher level of power, their dimensions had improved and they were unwilling to waste time fighting with these little kids.
After spending the last two years with Rein, both of the ladies were influenced by him and their personality had changed quite a bit. Lopas had stopped acting like a brat and had actually turned into a well behaved lady. Her pride was still as high as the skies but now this pride was making her to look like a dignified lady instead of an arrogant prick.
The same was the case for princess Luna. At first she had a very low opinion of her own self and her confidence level was very low. But now she had become confident in herself and with her high intelligence, she was extremely good at hiding what she was thinking. She was also turning into a schemer who was extremely ruthless.
Both of the ladies had a little bipolar disorder. To the outside world, Lopas was acting like a domineering queen and was looking down on everyone. But when she was with Rein, she looked like a little puppy who was always hungry for Rein's attention.
As for Luna, she was not really looking down on outside people but she did not value them either. For some reason, after developing her self confidence, she had started seeing everyone in this world as insignificant. It's not like she looked down on them or anything. But to her, everyone who was not Rein or his relatives was as important as a roadside rock.
But again when she was with Rein, she was a shy little girl who was feeling embarrassed even when holding hands. If an outsider saw this change in attitude, they would probably lose their mind.
...
After reaching the academy ground, Rein and his two fiancees found a shade of the tree and started waiting. There was a large stage built at the middle of the academy ground. The teachers and the senior students would welcome the new students there. There was still some time left before the beginning of the welcoming ceremony, so Rein, Luna and Lopas started waiting while chatting with each other.
In this academy, all the awakened children needed to study for 7 years. After turning 15, only the capable mages would get the chance to go for higher education. Almost 70 percent of the students would even not be able to reach the realm of rank 1 mages and 20 percent of them would have to stop in the rank 1. Those people would not be able to continue with their studies. So in these 7 years, almost 90 percent of the students would be eliminated from the chance of doing higher studies.
But Rein and his two fiancees did not need to worry about it. Rein was already a rank 4 mage to the world while actually he was a rank 5 mage. Lopas was also a rank 3 mage and had been in that rank for quite some time. She was confident in reaching the fourth rank in one more year.
As for Luna, she was also doing very well. As she did not have the insane god given talent of Rein and Lopas, she had still managed to reach the rank 2 and was not too far away from rank 3. Rein believed that if she continued like this, she would be able to reach the third rank before Lopas could reach the fourth. But Luna's real talent was not in the field of magic but in the field of governance. She was extremely intelligent and was able to managed territory and people very easily. His Empress wife from the main world was the only one who could outmatch her in the field of ruling a nation.
So both of his lovely fiancees were great in their own fields. Rein was extremely proud of them. So for them, regular classes were not really useful at all as most of the teachers were at the same rank as them or lower. So they did not need to attend all the classes like normal students and instead they were allowed to do self study and they had all the resources of the academy available to them.
So attending the welcoming ceremony was just a formality as none of the seniors had managed to reach the third rank so far. So Rein and Lopas had nothing to learn from them. As for Luna, even though she was still not definitely above them but when she would reach their age, without a doubt her rank would be higher than theirs, so she was not too interested in the other students.
...
Soon the ceremony started and the headmaster came to the stage first. He was someone no one could be disrespectful toward so even Rein and his lovers greeted him politely. As a seventh rank magus, he was worthy of this kind of respect.
After reaching the sixth rank, the mages would be able to utilise the power of arcane essence. Arcane essence was stronger than Mana by a few levels so sixth rank mages were on a whole different level. For that reason, to differentiate them from the other mages, they were called Magus with respect. This nation only had five magus and the head master was one of them. His name was Andreas.
He did not take much time to address the new students and after encouraging them a little bit, he was done. After that a few other teachers and some of the most brilliant students came up on the stage. But none of them were able to generate as much hype as the headmaster so the whole ceremony ended with no notable moment for Rein, Lopas and Luna.
After the ceremony was over, Rein was planning to go to the library with the ladies as they did not need to attend the classes. But then one of the teachers came to them and told them that the head master was calling for them.
Now what might the head master want to tell them ?
