Chapter 22 - Choosing a Dorm II

When they arrived at the branch road leading to the second year classrooms, they were intercepted by people wearing uniforms with the Salamander, Sylph, Undine, and Gnome symbol on their left chest. The uniform consists of a black shirt, a white blazer and white pants or skirts, and ties according to the color of the symbol on their left chest pockets.

"Hello… You're the second year, I presume?" One of them who wore a uniform with the Gnome symbol asked them.

"Yes, we are," Selina answered for all of them.

Looking at Selina then blushing hard, the one which just asked them clearing his throat then asked both of them again.

"*Cough… Cough…* All of you are members of Class 1, right?"

"That's right!" This time Alexa answered.

"My name is Noah Smith, a fifth-year student Prefect from Gnome dorm. Do all of you already decided which dorm to enter?" Noah said while pointed at his 'P' badge.

Both Selina and Alexa shook their head, while Arthur, Daniel, Jackson, and Christian nodded. Noah smiled then give them an introduction to each dorm.

"Salamander dorm represents the soul, they specialize in combat strategy. Sylph dorm represents the mind, they specialize in movement magic. Undine represents the heart, they specialize in healing magic. As for my dorm, Gnome represents the body. We specialize in the smith of Soul Weapon. Many of our dorm graduates are famous Soul Weapon craftsmen. Soul Weapon is a weapon which crafted based on the shape of one's soul, so only that person can use the weapon. Each weapon is unique to their owners. Though you must already know about that. You can get your Soul Weapon after you graduate."

"I… I want to enter Gnome dorm. I want to become a Soul Weapon craftsman," Christian said even though he stuttered a little because of excitement.

Following Christian as an example, Jackson also made his choice known to Noah.

"I want to enter the Sylph dorm."

"Prince Daniel and I will enter Salamander dorm," Arthur told Noah his and Daniel's decision, but strangely he seems more distant than usual.

"O… Okay," cold sweat slid down from Noah's forehead.

Selina, Alexa, Daniel, Jackson, and Christian confused at Arthur's behavior just now. Arthur usually always be polite to anyone except for Selina. So, if Arthur treats someone like that there must be something that makes him upset with that person.

'Why does Arthur treat senior Noah coldly like that? Has Senior Noah ever done anything wrong to him?' thought Selina.

Selina pays attention to Arthur's face. Not understanding what was wrong with him, she shrugged.

'Healing magic is a priority in carrying out missions, but so is combat strategy and movement magic, unfortunately, I only have a choice between Undine and Sylph. Hmm... Which one should I choose?' Selina still confused about which one to choose.

"Can I ask one question?" Selina raised her hand.

"O… Of course. What do you want to know?" Noah stammered.

"Can we take the private class of combat strategy even if we choose a dorm other than Salamander?"

"Yes, you can. Every two weeks there is an exchange of students between dorms. In this exchange of students, you may choose which class to enter, whether it's combat strategy, movement magic, healing magic, or Soul Weaponsmith."

"That is a relief."

"So have you decided?"

"I will enter the Undine dorm." Selina decided in the end.

"I will enter Undine dorm too," Alexa told her choice after Selina.

Noah smiled then hurriedly said, "If you are already sure about your choices, take this form paper, fill it according to your choice and give it to your Homeroom Teacher. Tomorrow, you can take your room key from your Homeroom Teacher and take your belongings to your room."

As Selina and other members of Class 1 took their seats, they realize there is one big magic device in the shape of a big ball approximately around one meter in diameter.

"What is this ball-like device?" Alexa asked no one in particular.

"It is Rafí if I'm not mistaken. It is a magic device for sewing clothes instantly according to a predetermined design. But it still needed Métrisis as without it we have to measure the body manually."

"Good morning!" Teacher Albus entered the classroom.

"Good morning, Teacher Albus."

"Have you filled out the dorm's form paper?"

"Yes!"

"Please put the form on the table, I'll collect it."

After all Class 1 members placed the forms they had filled on the table, Teacher Albus moved his hands and the forms that were on Selina and other Class 1 members' tables floated into Teacher Albus's hands.

"So Daniel and Arthur decided on Salamander, Selina, and Alexa on Undine, Chris on Gnome and Jack on Sylph dorm. All Class 1 members spread to four different dormitories." Teacher Albus smiled.

"For your uniforms, please come one by one to the front so I can get your body measurement," Teacher Albus then took out a gadget from one of his pockets.

Selina knows what it is, it is Métrisis, a measurement tool which is used to measure people's body measurement. Even Diana, Selina's mother has this magic device. The magic device shaped like a baton in white color with a button on it in red.

"Alexa, let's begin with you." Teacher Albus said.

Alexa came forward then Teacher Albus pushed the red button on Métrisis, whispering 'Undine' on the Métrisis and hovering it above Alexa's body for about thirty seconds. The Métrisis then let out a small 'beep' and Teacher Albus knock Métrisis on Rafí. The Rafí let out a humming sound and one minute later it let out a perfectly sized uniform with Undine emblem on its left chest pocket. After Alexa, one by one they got their body measured and got their uniform with their chosen dorm's emblem on its left chest pocket.

"Remember to bring the items you need to live in the dorm tomorrow." Teacher Albus gave his instruction before dismissing the class.
