"So the school we're in is called Blackwell's Training Academy and is a rarely seen private-owned school most of the others are Government owned because of privatization in the light elf territory.
She switched the topic? Is it a Zarab thing? To switch topics?
"What about my protection? The text even? I'm going to end up the same way as that guy"
"Oh Eze, you're going to win that fight, because I'm going to help you"
"How?" I was shocked, I hadn't even started training and I was supposed to beat 'that'.
"Training you. But before I start training you… Are you willing to get involved in this war as my inside man."
"We both share a common enemy, and you probably can't do it without my help"
"You've seen the video, it doesn't get any worse than pissing off 'The Imp'" she spoke the last part in a low voice different from her usual high voice causing me to feel a shiver down my spine
"When do we start?" I said eagerly
'I just realized it now, but she's actually strong to be able to casually put Zayn in the hospital 10 times. Both twins must be the main heroine types!
If I could acquire that type of strength…?
"After our last class, soldier. Now, more about school" she started.
We have classes for about three-four hours every day. Training school Education period classes in general don't last long. One-hour classes twice daily, sometimes thrice. But only nerds come here for theory classes" she said making an 'L' sign on her head while grinning.
We have Crafting classes, Rune Inscription classes, and other non-combat classes
On top of that we have theory classes for each of the main five Energies and specialized classes for the sub-classes." After saying all that in one breath she started showing signs of discomfort
"Whoo, staying close to you is pretty irritating, we've only spoken for under an hour but I feel like using my Energy to smack you. But I don't have anything against you personally."
"So what? "
"How about this…" she removed a snow white stone from a pocket and pressed it on her forehead.
The crystal glowed briefly before stopping. She then handed it to me
"Here" I received it feeling its cool and grainy texture
"This is?" I asked
"A raw psychic crystal. You can think of it as a natural computer chip for Psychics. Aside from being unable to cook for you it can be absorbed as Psychic Energy, used as a data bank, and even be used as an external processor apart from the mind."
"Can it also cook meals and clean- oh wait" she did say it could do almost everything apart from that.
"Those are some basic functions of it, but what I did was put my thoughts in the crystal for you to listen to"
"Like an audio book?"
"Yeah, just put it on your head and focus on it"
I placed the white rock on my head
"I'll be over there~" she said "It's getting really hard to hold myself back
"I tried focusing on the Psychic crystal with closed eyes and saw a ball of light appear in my subconscious. After some time I started hearing words explaining the school's culture in a descriptive fashion.
I found that if I focused harder on it I could speed the whole process up and vice-versa so after listening attentively I was done in about 5 minutes, which made me wonder if the explanation I received when I got here could also come in this format?
Anyways, the school, Blackwell's was unknown, and he was just rumored to be a Junior Ranker in some Hero Ranking. That seemed to cover that entirely?
The one leading it was actually a female Light Elf, Eliza Bournemouth who was also final year students' teacher. She taught homeroom, which almost everybody usually attended, hold up!
It says school isn't really necessary since the training that can be done in the institution can be done at home! And the school fees are mostly being charged for the environment where teens from different places can interact with each other! What bull!
Why did I fall into the thought that it was necessary to go to school? Also can I get the school fees back?
The principal was someone unknown? How did that work
Next up the teachers. As I'd hear already it could hold up to a hundred or so teachers but this one was on the average side. Just about 50 teachers, each doing the job their contract stipulated, a normal school, huh.
The school was trying out a unique methodology where teachers are given free materials for Training as Easter eggs sort of events to attract students who would rather stay at home and train.
For example the teacher in charge of Pugilists could decide to have the next class fight each other in a battle royale, the winner gets a beneficial Training tool that is much better than what is on the market and is free!
The method seemed to be working as more final year students came to school.
Aside from that, the subjects seemed to be attuned to your particular Energy, with some other subjects that seemed to be derived from regular earth subjects.
P.E was combat training, Basic Tech. was Crafting and Rune Inscription, Mathematics was Energy Readings and Physics was a subject named Energy Applications.
Alright, question time! I looked over to Zeina who was tapping quickly on her phone screen
"What is a Junior Ranker?" I needed to know since I've never heard of it
"It's the Top 50 strongest Energy Users under 25" she said without looking away
So it's like a gathering of the strongest and youngest
"But why is it rumored?"
"He/She chose to anonymously found this Training school but to do that without heavy roadblocks from the Light Elf government and to this level it can only be a Ranker. And a ranker's past is almost always shrouded in mystery
