The entrance ceremony is over and the orientation has begun.
In addition to the Basic Course, the Royal Academy has elective courses.
The basic courses include Japanese, math and history, which must be selected.
There are several elective courses to choose from: Aristocracy, Adventure, Commerce, Domestic Politics, Magic, Martial Arts, Magic Tools, Pharmacy, Home Economics, etc. Students must choose one or more courses to suit their needs. Some students choose three or four courses.
By the way, the Department of Aristocracy requires students to learn about domestic politics, diplomacy, and etiquette as a nobleman, so only noblemen are allowed to choose it.
Cain nodded his head while looking at the form with a list of courses.
''It's the adventure department after all, isn't it!
"No (sir)!
Cain was the first to be denied by Telestia and Silk.
''Master Cain is already the head of a noble family, you know? You will now have to learn a lot about the nobility. You must choose the nobility department.
Telestia knew that Cain had registered as an adventurer, but as expected, she couldn't compromise there.
''... yes ...''
Cain nodded emphatically.
''You could have taken the adventure department in addition to the nobility department.
Silk's words energized Cain.
'You're right! There's more than one, right? The nobility department is unavoidable, but the adventure department and ... the magic, martial arts, and magical tools departments are hard to get rid of.
Cain crossed his arms and was troubled.
'I think I'll be fine with four subjects. Anything more than that and it's going to be tough.'
Teres was indeed dumbfounded and advised me.
'It's settled! I'll make it a nobleman's department, an adventure department, a magic department, and a witchcraft department.
You don't like the martial arts department?
Silk comes to visit.
'I'm an adventurer in martial arts, so I'll learn it by practice. What will you two choose to do?
Cain asked them both.
'I'm thinking of choosing the Aristocracy and the Internal Affairs department: ...
Telestia replies with a stain on her cheeks.
''I understand the Aristocracy Department, but why did you go to the Internal Affairs Department?''
Cain asked Telestia curiously.
'It's ... of course, for the future management of the territory with Cain-sama ...?
Telestia's face was as red as an apple and she covered her face with her hands as she said it.
''Oh my goodness, Teres. I guess I'm in the nobility department and the commerce department. I wish I could study for the territory that Cain-kun will rule in the future.
Silk replied to Cain quickly. While his cheeks flushed a little.
''Thanks both of you. I can't say anything about managing the estate yet, but I'll do my best for both of you.''
Cain thanked them both for their feelings and thanked them honestly.
After all the subject orientations for the next few days were over, he decided to write down the subjects he had decided on and submit them to his homeroom teacher.
That's it. By the way, I haven't been going to church lately. Do you think the gods will complain about you if you don't show your face once in a while?
As I said this, I stopped by the church on my way home from school.
I entered the church, handed him an offering and knelt in front of the statues of the gods.
And as usual, Cain was wrapped up in the white light.
Cain, it's good to see you. First of all, congratulations on your enrollment.
Where the white light had subsided, the gods were sitting, as usual.
'It's been a while. And thank you.'
With that said, I sat down in my usual seat.
'We've all been enjoying ourselves,'
On the screen, he had just unleashed the magic that destroyed the training grounds during the entrance exam.
'You're watching me again!
Cain! Why didn't you just use the imperial level from the magic book I saw the other day instead of saying beginner level!
The one who said that was Reno, the magic god.
''As expected, the imperial class is a bad idea .... What would have happened if you released the imperial class over there?
Hmm, not only the training grounds, but the school building was completely destroyed. Maybe the whole thing was ruined for a mile or so?
'Why the question mark? And if I had done that, the royal capital would have been in trouble!
Cain! Forget that kind of magic, how much of that swordsmanship is skimpy? You could take down a guy like that in one hit, right? With your status and blessings, you should have little problem with that.
The one who interrupted was Tharnos, the god of war.
''I did it within the bounds of humanity! How would you feel if a ten year old beat an A-level adventurer in front of everyone at the entrance exam in one blow? No one will be scared to come near you when you get to school! And if you really swing a sword, the wall will break again with sword pressure: ...
Already an outsider in both status and blessings, Cain was struggling to keep it within the bounds of common sense.
''Well, let's not kid ourselves, Cain, there's a place I'd like you to go.
With that, Zenom hands Cain a map.
The map was centered on the Kingdom of Esfort, with the surrounding countries such as the Byssus Empire, which was adjacent to the Gracia territory, the Marinford Church Kingdom on the other side of the royal capital, the Tumbleton Kingdom in the highlands of the mountain range, and the Republic of Illustin, the main commercial city.
'I've never seen a map this detailed before,'
Cain was enthralled by the first time he had seen a map other than his own that he had been given, and he looked at it.
'This is where I want you to go, Lord.
The place where Xenom, the creator god, pointed to was deep in the Demon Forest next to the Gracia territory.
It was even deeper than the place where he had defeated the Red Dragon when he was five years old.
''What's here?''
Cain asked Xenom.
'You'll know it when you get there.'
That was all Zenom said.
''As expected, we can't go this distance right away. It's a few days further back than where the Red Dragon was, you can't rest that much since you just entered the school.''
You won't be gone long, will you? Two days off should be enough time for you to get home.
'You need to go that far: .... Okay, I'll go.
Cain nodded at Xenom's words.
'Mm, nice to meet you. Then I'll see you around.
After hearing those words, I was engulfed in light again and found myself dressed in the temple praying to the seven gods.
I got up and left the church as it was and went back to the mansion.
Free.
Welcome back, Master Cain.
It was Sylvia who greeted me.
'I have a few errands to run this coming weekend. I'll be away for a couple of days, so look after me.
Cain told Sylvia that and went back to his room.
And in the blink of an eye, it was the weekend.
He put his bags and a few meals in the item box, dressed as an adventurer, and left the room.
'You never know what's out there, so be careful,'
Yeah. I'm not going to push myself, so I'm fine. I'll be off then.
After passing through the gate, Cain cast a long distance instantaneous movement (Long Warp) and transitioned to where he had defeated the Red Dragon next to the Gracia territory.
'It's been a long time ago here too. It's been five years already.''
When Cain had confronted the dragon himself, he had fired a series of spells, leaving him with nothing, but after five years, the grass and trees had grown.
'It's in this direction,'
I checked the map Zenom gave me and made sure we were headed in the right direction.
''We don't have much time this time, so let's just go at once without a fight.
Fly.
As he chanted that, Cain's body floated away from the floor, his feet leaving the floor. His body was already high above the trees.
'I think this is about right, I just need a bit of protection from the wind.
After casting a wind shield, he flew at once.
Cain flew at a speed of up to two hundred kilometers per hour.
He flew for two hours, looking at the unchanging landscape of trees, until he saw a field and a house a short distance away.
'I wonder if that's where it is, but then again, I didn't know there was only one house in this place: ...
We entered the Demon Forest from the side of the Gracia territory and have already come hundreds of kilometers deep into the woods.
Even if he looked ahead, the forest continued forever to the full horizon.
Cain unlocked his magic and landed on the doorstep.
He looked around and saw that there was only one house, surrounded by fields that seemed to be self-sufficient.
'Who the hell lives in a place like this: ...'
Cain stands in front of the front door and takes a breath before knocking.
'Excuse me, is anyone here?'
I'll be there in a minute.
I heard a man's voice from behind the door.
Then footsteps came closer and the door opened.
'Oh, welcome. Welcome to this remote place, well, come on in.
The one who came out was a dark-haired young man who looked to be in his twenties.
Cain did as he was told by the casual young man and went in and sat in the chair he was led to.
'Coffee?'
The young man approached Cain.
'Yes, it's okay, ... yeah yeah yeah !!!!'
Cain was surprised, he was trying to accept the coffee naturally, but there was no such thing as coffee in this world.
The young man in front of him didn't particularly care for it and offered him a cup of coffee.
The tension in Cain's mind was palpable.
'Well, don't be alarmed, reincarnator, I've heard from the old man of Xenom.
'What ..., you talked to God!
That's the way it is. Those old guys call on you every once in a while when they feel like it. That's why I heard you coming.
He placed the freshly brewed coffee in front of Cain. I sat down in the chair facing Cain, taking a sip of my own cup of coffee.
Cain took a sip, enjoying the aroma he hadn't had in a long time. It was truly the first coffee he had had in ten years.
Well, let me introduce myself first. Cain von Silford-kun or Shiina Kazuya-kun?
The young man in front of him said.
'I'm Yuya. You're Yuya Terra Hirasawa Esfort or Hirasawa Yuya. You're a transmigrant, but I'm a summoner, or should I say a transmigrant?
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah: !!!!'
The young man in front of me was unexpectedly the first King of Esfort.
