Chapter 210 210 Mister Villex
[Lucy's POV: ]
There were Class A to Class L in the academy and depending on the performance of all the students in the entrance exams, these classes were assigned after carefully examining many of the factors. However, in the great academy of Idyllia, it didn't mean that one who has received a certain class would remain in that certain class.
'The classes were reassigned every year depending on the next exams and the students' performance through their previous years,'
Someone from Class A could be demoted to any of the other classes while some from the lower classes could climb up to the higher classes depending on their performance throughout the years, and this happened in all three years.
So, if someone has class A in the first year, in the second year, they might also go down to class B or C, and in the last year, they might also come back to class A depending on their performance or go down to even lower classes.
'The academy structure was set in a way that gave all the students an equal chance to achieve as much as the others, a system where Equality was promoted in true meaning even though it was undesirable by the students and the ones present here.'
On the academy grounds, everyone was equal, whether they liked it or not. They were students, including the two of us.
"I will introduce myself after exactly three minutes. The ones that come after my introductions would recover disciplinary homework so if you know anyone that isn't present yet, I request you to tell them."
We were students, students with some special privileges that we had earned ourselves, we were still nothing more than students.
The rules and regulations that applied to all the other students also applied to the two of us, just that thanks to our achievements in the entrance exam and the things that we earned as rewards granted us some additional privileges.
We knew that we had already experienced all this many times so we understood the nature of these things. And, we were also familiar with the strict-looking Middle Ages man standing before us in his fashionable suit and unique white magic cane.
[ "Does he look a little younger?" ]
[ "Hmm? I do not think so. He was always like this. Oh… looks like he hasn't shaved in a while. His short white beard hides his wrinkles, making him look a little younger sometimes." ]
He was a middle-aged half-elf, a (Master) ranked spirit mage and someone who had contracts with two (Superior) ranked spirits, something nearly unheard of on this planet.
He was quite famous in the outside world as people had known him since his time as an adventurer, but, he was a talented person in the spirit arts even though he wasn't a pureblood elf.
'He looked quite attractive as well, and with the tall, strong looking build, those long tied green hairs, and that small white beard, even in his late three hundred, he looked quite good.'
And there was that usual professional aura around him so, when the students looked in his serious brown eyes, they couldn't help but be intimidated by his presence.
"Alright then, looks like a hundred and seventeen out of you hundred and twenty-three have made it in time. Then, I will introduce myself and we will do little self-introductions.
I want you all to describe yourself in three words, Just three words. Nothing more, nothing less."
He was a good one to be a homeroom teacher in the first year out of all the thirty others who usually run for the positions of the homeroom teachers of all the classes.
'And, since the ones who are going to be the homeroom teachers of any of the classes are decided via a lucky draw among the teachers and the other people present inside the academy, this whole thing of being the homeroom teacher is based on Their luck.'
It changed most of the time with our influence so this time was the same, not that we had anything to do with their play.
The two of us had better things we needed to take care of in the time we were here, and since he didn't actually pay much attention to the ones that weren't paying attention in his classes as long as they knew what was going on and answered his questions, we can do what we wanted.
"Alright. I am Villex Kìrn Perien. A Spirit master with two Basic, three Intermediate, two Advanced, and two Superior ranked spirits under my contract.
I have been a teacher in the academy for only six decades so I am fairly new among the other teachers, but rest assured, I am better than many of them. Good enough to be your teacher.
I will be teaching the basics to all of you. And by basics, I mean basics of all the things you would need to know from magic to weapons, and from skills to special powers not included in the skills.
I abhor the latecomers so, try to be at least a minute earlier than the usual class time or else you will be receiving punishment homework that you must have to complete by the other class.
You hear that? Stand out until I call you."
One of the students who had just arrived flinched visibly at his heavy eyes and stepped back instinctively. And, the other students flinched fearfully as well.
They understood he was serious about this being on time thing, that coming even a few minutes late would mean a serious punishment that might affect their future academic life in the future.
[ "He is the same." ]
[ "Yup. Bastard master of spirits and bullshit. He knows how to bluff well enough to con even the students like Cathy and Nes. The two looks like they have seen the most serious person in their lives." ]
[ "Don't tell them about him, okay? They should figure it out on their own like Ras and Rex already have. Look, even AJ doesn't give a fuck about what he is talking about. Lion seems to have some suspicion as well but seeing Lily and Oak is still funny." ]
[ "Hehe, they are cute as well. Oh! That reminds me, do you know the guy that just arrived?" ]
[ "Kaiser? What about him?" ]
[ "I think he and Lily met during the entrance exam and have gotten a little closer. I should kill him." ]
…
Well…
[ "I don't think that's a very nice idea, El." ]
[ "But Lilly has to be with Lion! They can't be together if there's interference!" ]
[ "El, still. Killing is too much. How about we check if he actually is close to her first, see if they have any romantic interest in each other, and decide what to do with him afterward?" ]
She wanted Lion and Lily to be together just like how I wanted Rex and Cathy to be together.
She wanted both of them on her team, not in the Fool's gambit but in her adventurer party. She wanted them to marry, make love, have children, and when that happened, she wanted their special children.
Children are so special that they have the power to have an impact on the entirety of the Worldline.
She was aiming for that, and to achieve her goal, she would do anything she had to do, going as far as purposefully manipulating both of them. She was serious about this whole thing since the results would be that much extraordinary.
[ "Hmmm. Well, we can do that as well. But if he really is close to her, we will kill him~. And then she will be vulnerable~. And then Lion will help her in her tough times~. And then! They will fuck~." ]
She is crazy… as always.
"Alright, students. How about we start from the very back over there? Introduce yourselves, rank ones." Mister Villex looked in the back, at us, with a smirk on his face.
He didn't care about how we were sitting right now since it wasn't important in the first place, but, he must have seen some of the things that we did during the entrance exam.
He knew we were talented and promising so he must have been excited to meet us. And, this question and that look expressed that much pretty openly.
'We knew he would ask us first but, well, sorry for him, he wasn't going to get anything fun from us.'
El looked at me after he asked the question, I nodded at her, and she stood up, and looked Mister Villex straight in the eyes with a calm expression.
"Uriel," she said with one hand on her chest.
"Lucifer," she said with her other hand on my shoulder.
"One," she finished by joining both her hands, indicating we were together, and then, she sat down without saying anything else.
The others were confused about what she had just said, like, they certainly were only three words as the teacher had asked for, but, they didn't understand what she actually meant by that.
She just said our names and added 'one' at the end, so, they had their own guesses of what it might have actually meant, but still, they did not know how could she say something so ambiguous.
"Good answer, a deep one as well. Next, we should go by rows from back to front and from left to right side.
The one before Miss Uriel, your turn."
They had thought that even the teacher would find her answer absurd like they did but, contrary to their beliefs, the teacher understood what she wanted to say, or at least more than enough to know what he wanted to know about us, so, he was satisfied and moved onto the next person.
He had asked everyone to describe themselves in three words, so, one has to incorporate the main things that make them who they are in their answers, which wasn't easy.
'It was a test to see just how much one knew themselves, and, it was quite psychological so depending on one's answer, we could certainly figure out a lot of things about that person, and about their understanding of the world.'
It was simple from the standpoint of those who understood this activity. But for the young adults who were coming across a question such as this for the first time in their lives, it was a difficult thing to answer.
Even for the protagonists like Nes, Cathy, Lux, and Rex, it was going to be a difficult situation since what they knew about themselves… was not going to be enough to describe themselves in three whole words.
Especially for Nes, it was going to be a difficult thing, or at least, we thought it would be…
