Chapter 12 - Class

It's the next day after the welcoming party and Ken's duel with Louis. Everyone is now downstairs in the dining room, sitting around the table eating breakfast together like a family and getting ready to start their day. Except for Katherine, who was up in her room, doing who knows what.

"Hey Leo pass me the milk," Louis asked

"Hey Drew, can you pass Louis the Milk?" Leo asked

"No, he asked you first" Drew replied

"Stop complaining and just do it you meathead!" Leo yawned

"Look midget, I'm older than you so you should listen to your eldest!" Drew replied annoyed

"Do you two always have to fight?" Mira asked, before handing Louis the milk

"I think I drank too much last night, my head still hurts" Koko moaned

"Well maybe you shouldn't have drunk so much last night" Mira added on

Ken sat next to Hanako, trying out the other apps on his Student Cell. During the Welcoming party last night, Ken added everyone to his contact list and everyone added him back.

Ken clicked on the [I.D] symbol and his entire screen turned into a little I.D card, with a small picture of himself in the corner and a bunch of information about him.

"So apart from a sign of identification, what other use does my ID have?" Ken asked

"It can be used as a license, for in case you want to ride any vehicle on or out of school campus" Drew replied

"It can be used as a student transport card, letting you travel to almost anywhere in Belthon, without having to pay transport fees, altho that only works within Belthon," Said Mira

"It can also be used as a license for magical weapons to be carried and used on school campus. It has many other smaller uses but those are the main ones for the first year" Catherine added on

"So, higher year levels have access to other things?" Ken asked

"Yes they do, Second Year's can use their ID to help law enforcement with crime in Belthon, and third years can use their I.D to join missions with the knights of the Vaevalon Kingdom" Louis explained

"Ohhhh okay, so we first years can't get involved with anything outside campus?"

"Exactly, so when off campus don't do anything reckless," Silva said chipping into the conversation

"Alright, so what's the Bank App for? Because I'm not signed up with any banks, I don't even know how to handle money properly" Ken continued to ask before clicking the bank symbol

"Looks like I'm broke," Ken thought to himself "Am I supposed to deposit money into it through a bank?"

"This Academy uses points as currency, you gain them through your academic grades, selling items, or from winning battles, there are other means of gaining points but those are the common ones. First years will be deposit a limited amount of points after a month in the academy, mainly after the survival camp" Silva explained

"Okay, that makes sense. Are these the only apps on our Cell?" Ken asked

"No, you're able to download other apps, created by students, but they cost points, so as of now those are your only apps" Koko explained

"Then I guess as of now I don't have much use for this student cell, other than using it for the map, and contacting people," Ken said before turning off his cell and placing it in his pocket. "By the way, why isn't Katherine down here with us?"

"She hates being in large groups" Drew answered

"Yeah, she is very anti-social" Leo added on

"That's why we clap whenever she gets involved, it's a way to encourage her" Mira spoke

"Don't worry, I'll drag her out later, we have class together today" Said Koko

"Oh right, how do I start class? Do I need to sign up or something?" Ken asked

"One of you will have to show Ken around" Silva spoke

"Sorry Ken, but I got an early class, I don't have time to show you around," Said Krow

"Neither do I. I also have an early class and another class right after that one" Mira added on

"As I said, Kate and I got class together, so no can do" Koko spoke

"...Th-that's okay…I…c-can…show him a-around" Hanako chipped in

"Alright, you brats hurry up and scram, I need to clean up the dorm!" Silva shouted

Everyone finished eating and headed off to their classes. Hanako led Ken through the academy, showing him around Academy square, which is where academy clubs, classrooms, and study areas are mostly built, as well as where most students hang around. Once they arrived at Academy Square it was busy with students everywhere, socializing and going in and out of classes.

"Wow! It's so lively here, there is so much going on" Ken said with a dumbfounded look

"You really are...amazed by everything," Hanako said looking at Ken with a soft smile

"Why wouldn't I be! Being around so many people my age excites me, it gets me pumped!"

"So, where do you want to go first, Ken?"

"I want to go everywhere! But right now, I think I want to check out the classes, I want to see what subjects there are, so I can sign up for some"

"That's a good idea, follow me, I'll show y-you where all the class timetables are…" Hanako said as she walked in the direction of the timetables

After a couple of minutes of walking and Ken being amazed at everything as usual, they finally arrive at a giant building, built almost like a fortress. In front of the building were three giant mana screens. On the screen were multiple timetables that showed when different classes will start and finish, it also showed what subjects were being taught. It was all neatly laid out, making it easy to read. Just like Ken and Hanako, multiple students were standing around looking at the mana screen.

"Wohhh...so cool! So many classes to choose from!" Ken said with a big smile "I'm going to sign up for all of these classes and learn as much as I can, so I can reach number one"

"Why don't we start with just one first," Hanako said as she admired Ken's eager face

"Yeah your right, okay, let's start with...Ummm...I want to study Enchantments, Forging Enchantment" Ken said pointing at it, on the screen

"...Well now take your Cell out and f-focus its camera at the barcode next to it"

Ken took out his cell and did as Hanako instructed. A small notification popped up on Ken's screen, as soon as it scanned the barcode. The notification read [Click Here to download classroom app for free!]. Once Ken clicked the link below it, a new icon appeared on His screen, the icon was that of a book, and underneath it, said [Classroom].

"Sweet!"

"There, now you have been automatically signed up. W-Whenever there is a class for that subject, you will get a notification ahead of time, allowing you to prepare for said class" Hanako explained

"Ohhhh how very cool". Ken opened the classroom app and it was empty with only one subject being available [World Enchantment class 1A].

"Class 1A?"

"It..s-seems like we are in the s-same class," Hanako said with a smile

As Ken heard Hanako say that, a big smile appeared on his face "wow! Looks like the Goddess of fate is smiling upon me"

*Bing!*

Both Ken and Hanako's cell rang at the same time, as a notification popped up on their screens. The notification read [F.E class starts in 20 minutes, please be on time]

"Sweet our first class together!" Ken said looking at Hanako

"Yeah" Hanako replied with a gentle nod

"Ummm, Hanako I really need to use the restroom, can you point me to the nearest restroom!"

"Oh umm, it's in that building in front of us, it's on the third floor, I'll w-wait here for you," Hanako said pointing at the building

"Thank you!"

Ken quickly rushed off into the building and made his way into the toilet. After he was done, he made his way to the second floor, before he suddenly stopped, due sensing a strong magical barrier from a nearby room. Ken being the curious person he is, decided to check it out, and when he entered the room there was a girl stuck inside an orange barrier.
