34 First Day
"It's okay, Ein? Have you forgotten anything?
"It's okay. I've checked many times, and Chris will come with me to the school."
"Dear Olivia. Don't worry, I'll take care of anything."
"... you don't trust Chris because he's missing too, do you?
"Aww..."
Winter dawned, making it the first day of long-awaited school for Ain.
There were a number of events until the dawn of winter, for example Ein's 7th birthday.
Ein's birthday took the form of gatherings only within her body, not in a party-like fashion. On Ain's birthday like that, Krone gave him a silver bracelet as a gift.
Even though I wear a gift from Ein, what Ein wears is the red ball of the earth, a provision from the country.
Given that, I regretted it a little, so I decided to give you a bracelet.
And one more thing. Finally, Ain's revelation took place.
Instead of a revelation about running through the Wang capital, it took the form of presenting himself from White Knight, the castle, to the people.
Pre-aged disclosures are made just in case, and are disclosed a little distance from the public for safety reasons.
From the people's point of view, the first impression would have been that Ein's appearance was difficult to understand.
Nevertheless, the revelations of the new future king were also greatly boiled down by the people.
"As, well, mother. Whatever it is, it's okay."
"Okay. If it's true, your mother would like to send Ain with you."
"No, dear Olivia. Definitely going to be a fuss."
"Right..."
Unlike Ain, Olivia's appearance is well known to the people.
Olivia, such a second princess, is a densely populated area of school called the school city. It was only natural to make a fuss if he showed up at such a place.
"Speaking of which, mother. Krone already left, didn't he?
It's been a while since Krone and Graf came to Ishtarika.
Graf bought a solid mansion, though a few steps smaller than before. Of course Krone lived there, but most of them stayed at the castle because of the many challenges from Warren and various other efforts that seemed more convenient to be in the castle.
"Yep. Reebe Women's School starts early. It's a great place to grow up with strict rules."
Likewise, Krone, whose first day the school was in, had already left. As for Ain, who was confirming that he was staying at the castle last night, I'm a little sorry.
"Dear Ein, it's time to leave."
"Excuse me, Mother! It's time for you to go because it's dangerous!
"Come in, Ein. Chris, please tell me about Ain."
Ain't agreed to Chris' suggestion. Even as Ain, I wanted to avoid being late from day one.
Then he takes his luggage and leaves for the station White Rose to catch the water train.
Depending on the station and the inclusion on the train, we managed to reach the school, although Ain was already tired before we got to the school.
Though we left a little early, the school city is busy with many people. I finally took a breather when I arrived on the grounds of the Royal Kingsland School.
"Mr. Chris. It's disgusting to think about it every day."
"... don't worry, I'll send it to you."
Nico smiles beautifully Chris. Ein didn't mean to skip, but I can feel the firm will that Chris's smile won't allow him to skip either.
"Nevertheless, the Royal Kingsland School, to which Ain goes, can be slowed down once you arrive."
The more easily the premises of the Royal Kingsland School were compared to those outside the premises, the more idle and quiet the space was.
The reason was in the number of students. Although the Royal Kingsland School boasts some of the top property areas in school cities, it is quicker to count them from below when it comes to the number of students.
The educational philosophy of the Royal Kingsland School is that it trains people who can entrust the future of Ishtarika.
For this reason, the number of students is designated at considerably less than 1/3 to 1/4 compared to the National Kingsland School and other schools.
They want a high level of education and as much strength as they can do it.
"Dear Ein. I've been waiting for you."
"Dill. He picked me up."
"Of course it is. Dear Chris, more dill than this. I will take over the task of escorting Mr. Ain."
"Thank you, I did take over. Until then, protect Ein with your life."
"Ha."
Although it was somewhat tough, it was necessary for Chris and Dill. Finishing taking over Ain's escort, Chris will be returning to the castle.
"Then Dear Ein, I will return to the castle. I'll pick you up when you get home, so never try to go home on your own, right?
"Okay. Be careful, Mr. Chris."
Chris returns to the castle in thanksgiving. And from here on out, Dill serves as Ain's escort in exchange for Chris.
"Then Master Ain, let's come. I'll show you to the classroom."
"Oh, okay. But it's huge. I'm tired of just moving around this school."
"This vast lot of premises allows us to do a lot of training and research. That's not a bad idea."
"I see, well, it's nice to have a wide range of places to use it"
Beautifully maintained school based on nature, but some buildings are visible. Ein thought that was probably the facility that could be used for training and research.
By the way, the Royal Kingsland School doesn't exist like an admissions ceremony. It says in the dossier to think of it as enrolled from the day of passing, and freshmen will suddenly take classes from the first day.
"Dear Ein. I hope you will let me guide you through the school as soon as class is over. We'll pick you up at lunch, so come to our exclusive lounge."
"Okay, well, I'll wait for you in class, so say hello."
Take Dill's guide to the classroom.
I got a little excited to think about what people were like.
"Uh, here?
"Yeah, here it is. Ain't no doubt about Ain's classroom here."
The place where Ain arrived is a classroom with a high and splendid luxurious door that will be as high as 4m.
I couldn't hide the surprise because it was too different in making from the classroom I had passed by then.
"Why are the doors so different? I feel so unequal."
"The Royal Kingsland School is divided into five classes a school year, in order of grades. Classes change only once a year, but are favoured in several respects as close to 1 in classes 1 to 5. The same goes for classroom building, but there are numerous perks such as priority use of research facilities being allowed."
"If you want something, you can win it on your own."
"That's what I'm talking about"
It turns out that only the king runs it, and it never means equality, but there is a fierce competition for survival.
Though I was able to pass a rigorous entrance exam, I don't seem at all willing to let it soak in warm water.
"Five pairs (Fifth) and four pairs (Force) each have 25 people. Three sets (third) and two sets (second) of 20 people each. And there's a set of 10 people for Ein."
"I heard it wasn't much, but it wasn't that much"
"There will also be a description in the admissions guide. But we don't really know how many people we have."
"I was checking the class form and stuff. Well, listen... Dill, thanks for the guide. Then I'll be in the classroom."
In the meantime, I decided to go into the classroom. Ein. Though I heard it was less, I never thought of myself as a quorum of just 10 people with myself in it. However, I was interested in knowing what kind of people were there.
"I'll pick you up later,"
Dill, who said he was coming later, smiled well at the beautiful boy's appearance from whoever he saw him, and after thanking him, headed to his classroom.
And Ain also opens the classroom door, there were only five of us in the classroom.
"You're spending a lot of money on classrooms, too."
The classroom was so stunning that I spoke to myself about it. Although it doesn't look extra luxurious, desks and chairs are artisans at a glance. The Tables are also sculpted objects of love.
The desk has only one semi-circular object made as if surrounding the table. The desk is long on the side and is built to allow 10 people to sit together.
Ein, who did not know where to sit, also did not like to sit in the center, so he sat in one inner chair from the edge.
Ain was added, and six students took their seats.
I don't even speak from Ain because there was nothing I could talk to, although I was blinded by some people before I sat down.
Eventually, the time passed as it was, and a little while later, the seats were filled and the 10 people were all there.
"Morning, it looks like we're all here. Most importantly, it's bad luck to have a vacancy from day one."
Then came the person who seemed to be in charge a little later. Quality suits, glasses, polished leather shoes. A well-styled middle-aged man dressed like a businessman who can work.
"In this class, acting on a class basis is only a small opportunity. I want you to understand that and inspire the rest of your school life."
And words by office that begin abruptly.
"Let me tell you something first, this class is special. That's why I don't often ask my class for it as a position of office. Oh, and I don't need to introduce yourselves, and if I have to, I suggest you do it personally after this."
I guess even more heterogeneous are the words of his tenure, the meritocratic school, as if he had been poked into the void as Ein.
"What I ask of you is even quality. You guys won some exams and were able to get into this class. That is why I ask for that high quality to be maintained, and I pray that none of these 10 will be replaced until the end if I wish, so that I can graduate. That's it, I don't mind breaking up."
Put it in your head. 'Huh?' Only the word kept turning.
Is it over for the first day of face-to-face meetings? Ain't felt like we talked too little.
"Oops, I'm sorry. Be sure to attend when it comes to the six-monthly exam, which you still have to tell. If there's an inevitable reason, let's talk about it. Other classes, etc. don't have to be in special attendance, I don't have to complain as a school if they even gave me results. If you fail to attend this exam, be careful because you will be demoted unconditionally."
Word that you don't have to attend until class. It makes me feel like I'm no longer in school.
But what I want is the result, which means if you're out of class, but you're trying hard, but you're of low quality, you're demoted.
"Exam subjects are similar to other classes and multiple subjects, and become elective subjects. Make great use of faculty consultations and questions.... I'm late, but I say Kyle. I will be in charge of magic engineering for some time to come. [M] So that's it. Dismissed."
Although there was only a little more information, it ended up being a carriage to dissolve.
An arrowhead event that I thought would begin by introducing myself one by one or explaining the school. I can't deny the fact that I was a little confused, but I understand that it's a stance that I'm finally very free but I can get results.
"Hey, that was quite a personalized greeting."
In the meantime, one boy speaks to Ain.
With a refreshing face, he was a boy who could be confident that he would look good in the future.
"I'm glad someone's thinking the same thing. I didn't think you'd even let your students introduce themselves."
"Ha. I heard it was more of a meritocracy class in meritocracy school, but it wasn't like that until I said hello."
"I'm surprised it's a stance to find out where the facility is."
He seemed to have a nostalgic personality, and it felt good talking to him as Ain.
"Whoa, I was doing the same thing as my teacher. I'm late for my name, but I'm Loran, and I passed my exam in magic engineering. What subject did you pass?
"I guess I'm swordsmanship. So I passed and I came to this class."
"Huh... then it was the boy you were talking about"
Ein wanted to hold his head when he was told he was talking about it and there was a verse that came to mind.
Probably hurt the examiner.
"... what a conversation, by the way."
"Examiners of swordsmanship are famous people. He used to be famous there as an adventurer, because there's no way we can talk about someone like that getting hurt by a seven-year-old exam."
The other students who were around introduced themselves, including a little conversation.
In the meantime Ain was reflecting on what he had put out.
"I lost my provocation and I did it. I wonder if they can help me laugh."
"I think it's like laughing and respecting nothing. I'm seven years old and I can't believe I'm just proud to knock down a famous examiner. Maybe he's got a reputation among his senior students, maybe he'll sign up for an arms test."
Ain't strengthened my awareness that I've heard that and done even more. I was also reflecting on my mental weakness, but one visitor comes to the classroom.
"It's the 6th year dill, excuse me"
The one who showed up was Dill, who just broke up a while ago. Ein wondered that he had come at this hour because he said he would pick him up around lunch.
With Dill in the classroom, the air in the classroom wandered off.
Apparently, Dill was a celebrity, and there were several who spoke his name.
"Huh... it's Mr. Dill. Royal Kingsland School's strongest corner, no way to sign you up for an arms test."
"Hey, hey, I don't think so."
Loran was also one of those people who knew Dill.
But his thoughts would be wrong. Dill's probably just picking Ain up, so Ain't sure he won't have it.
"No, it could be! Like I said... can I ask your name if I'm sorry?
Ein noticed that he was fiercely late. I'm sorry, but I try to tell you my name.
"Sorry, uh, what's my name?"
"I am so sorry, Dear Ein. One group (first) lost sight of the fact that they were free classes in the first year. I think I'm done greeting you, so I'm going to show you around the school."
"It wasn't just the first year. That format. I'm a little relieved. Sorry Lorraine, I'm going to have to show you around the school now... yeah, good. Want to come with me?
"Oh, oh... no, I'm sorry. I'm fine. Actually, I already know some things in school. So it's okay, you just have to take a good look."
"Oh well, okay. Then let's talk slowly this time, see you later!
Ain't going to take a look inside the school when Dill comes to show me around.
Loran was losing his mind a little bit. If I thought the celebrity Dill was here, I said I would bow my head to the person I was talking to and guide him inside the school. And when I heard the name Dill mouthed, I was surprised again.
"A, Ain't. His Royal Highness Prince Wang...... Huh?!
Loran wasn't the only one who was surprised by Dill's appearance, many students in the class were equally surprised.
And the other thing is, it's never just Loran who was hearing the name Ain, everyone in the class is going to hear it.
After that, the classroom was left with an unbelievable silence for dozens of seconds.
