The Author Is Speechless

Chapter 52: First day at school

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Master, I will come in now."

Viktor changed into his academic uniform for the first time. A white coat with silver border, boots and other items of clothing similar to a noble's clothing. The uniform was magical that would fit into anyone's body.

Viktor's hair already reached his chest, so he made a braid to keep them all together so that it wouldn't disturb his face.

"Master, your academy satchel is ready."

"Oh, I see. You looked well dressed. Are you going to escort me today?"

"Yes, master. I bought a carriage yesterday night. Don't worry, I've replaced all the leather seats and put soft pillows so that you can travel comfortably."

"Eh? How much did it cost?"

"50, Gold master."

"You used half of your monthly salary to buy a carriage? You could've asked me for the money you know."

Viktors fixed his hair in front of the mirror and took his classic school bag.

"It is a gift for you master."

What am I going to do with this loyal demon…

"Let's go then, the main gates will be closed at 9."

"It's 8:30 master. Don't worry we can reach the academy in time."

Adonis put back the small gold pocket watch made by Viktor. It was a gift Viktor gave him a week ago for cooking delicious dishes every day.

But when he got out of the house, he became speechless…

"This carriage cost you 50 gold, Adonis?"

"Yes, master!"

Viktor looked at his face and saw a glowing light bulb flashing like the sun.

I wonder if that light can be turned into electricity if I place a solar panel on his face -_-. I think I don't have much time left before I lose both of my eyes.

"Oh, yes. I can see why you were able to get this carriage from the shop."

The carriage he bought was made of expensive wood and golden handles, and strong wheels, even the horses were so healthy and huge. Its real cost was no less than one thousand gold, but Adonis bought it by emitting some flash on the face of the shop owner.

'It's a scam,' he mumbled while shaking and jumping in the running carriage.

There was a huge crowd on the road to the academy. There were people from so many kingdoms who came to see their children going into the academy. Some of them were saying goodbye to their children because they will be living in the dormitory.

The ships from the port were ringing their bell to call for the passengers who booked a ticket back to their country. The students who failed, the reporters who came from a distant land and the parents who came to escort their children will be saying goodbye to the Brinein territory today.

Viktor put his head out of the window and saw Adonis was wearing a hat with a thin black fabric to cover his face to avoid unnecessary attention on the road.

The road was so crowded, but Adonis felt his master's presence out of the carriage. So he looked back and saw Viktor was pointing at something.

So, Adonis looked in the direction and saw the flying firecrackers in the sky. Colourful flyers were all over the sky creating a festive mode in front of the premises.

The academic musicians were playing national instrumental music and so many street performers were playing their tricks to catch foreigners attention.

'I am really in a magical world,' he hushed while keeping his head out of the carriage window and saw a baby girl looking at him. She was surprised to see a silver long-haired boy with shiny silvery eyes.

Viktor noticed her and waved at her with a smile and the mother behind the girl fainted.

"Eh?"

"Ptfff!!! Hahahah!! Ah, sorry master!! I couldn't hold ptffff!!!!! Ahahahah! My…. laughter ...hahahahaha!!!!"

He became speechless by that woman's act.

They barely reached the school entrance at 8:55. So he took his bag and ran into the school by showing his batch to the gatekeepers.

If I compare the crowd today, it's only 10% from the other day. The campus is almost empty. And there are only a few students in our department.

He ran towards the class and saw the teacher was already present.

"Viktor, it's your first day at the academy and you're the last person to get in."

A lady with long hair was the homeroom teacher of Viktor's.

"Sorry professor. My carriage was stuck in the crowd. This will never happen again."

"Since you're the top student, I will let this slide for today. I want everyone to attain this class at 8:55. No objection is granted. Go to your seat."

"Thank you, professor."

This habit of mine will never leave me alone. Getting late to attain every class of my whole life.

Viktor took his seat in the middle of the row and all the elfs around him got a little closer to him.

"Hm?"

Viktor looked back and saw two elfs looking somewhere else. But he was sure they were drilling a hole behind his head.

Why are they? Magnets?

The class Viktor took only had 15 students. On the mana exam, there were 21. So, the rest of them failed to keep up to the academy's expectations.

"Okay, class. I will be your Basic Machinery Introduction this year. Please open to page 4 and listen to my lectures carefully. I won't be repeating anything later on."

"Yes, professor."

Everyone opened their book and the professor began to give lectures.

So, this is the Lyfrone Academy's lecture. And this machinery is really easy compared to our first hydrogen powered engine invented by Issac back in 1806.

This world's energy source is the Mana crystal, a mana circle in a person's body. People don't need gas to run engines, electricity to light a bulb and oil to fly a plane. They use mana to do all sorts of things.

So, thinking about an engine in this world is really interesting. I heard that our neighbour kingdom has trains and airships there.

Hah, now I want to move to that country.
