Aquatic: Wake up Albion.
Aquatic said softly as water slowly trickled from Aquatic's hand and drops of water fell on Albion's face. He slowly shook his face as he woke up. Yawning as he stretched out his arms.
Albion: Morning. {God they're all still here aren't they?}
Everyone: MORNING!
Albion looked around hundreds of spirits looking at him. His school uniform which was a shirt with the school emblem and comfortable trousers on his desk. The school emblem was a bright light coming from a sword and staff that crossed over each other.
As Albion got out of bed he took a shower. Going into a wet room that was made of ceramic tile, pressing the blue stone above his head. Water trickling down. The only reason he knew how this worked was because with the timetable, map and uniform there was a small booklet. The booklet telling you how certain doors and equipment worked and what magic equipment was here. Albion brushed his teeth with the given supplies.
Walking out as he dried. The spirits still watching him. Even when he was naked besides a towel.
Albion: You're not going to cover your eyes or turn around if I ask are you?
Everyone: Nope.
Albion looked at the spirits as he sighed. He just hung up the towel and dressed. A small blush on his face that he had such an audience throughout his life. And that they now decided to become visible because they wanted to "help more."
Albion: First lesson issss… a test? Then the next. Another test? And another.
Albion looked through the timetable as he had tests throughout the entire day. All for different subjects. Some he didn't really want to do.
Albion: All lessons today are tests! *Sigh* At least some are in the sword and magic areas of the school. I've also got some time to kill. Let's see.

Albion: {I don't need to use it as I'm already pretty good at healing. But it could be useful.}
[Body Mana (A)
1. A skill that uses mana to exponentially increase physical ability and durability.
2. The skill also provides a powerful domineering aura around you.]
Albion: So this is what I've been using. It's basically what Mrs Winchester used, isn't it? Maybe I unconsciously tried to copy her. Is it due to my accelerated learning and development? {Another thing I need to thank Mrs Winchester for if I ever see her again.}

Albion: {I can increase my speed? Cool.}
Lily: Pretty cool indeed.
Lily appeared behind him looking over his shoulder.
Albion: LILY?! Your back!
Albion quickly turned around to see Lily. Albion smiled widely as his smile brought a soft one to hers.
Lily: Like your spirits, I never left. Though… you and your girlfriend need to learn to control yourselves. You're worse than horny animals… Actually, I can't blame you. She is a goblin so she quite literally can't control herself. {Will I need to teach him? I guess that's something a mother and son should do. But how will I teach him?}
Albion: Mommy? {I should really start calling you mum.}
Lily: Awwww. Is my baby getting too old to call me mommy? Don't worry sweetheart. Call me mum if you want. Also, I need to think for a second. I'll still be here just not visible. Go back to what you're doing.
Lily disappeared. Albion was confused but he shrugged it off. He was slowly learning to get less and less embarrassed and have no shame. He was pretty sure that wasn't a good thing though.
[Gluttony Level 2 (E)
1. You are able to eat easier and digest easier.
2. When you digest extra food you can store it as a dense fat. This gives you extra energy reserves as well as improves your durability.

Albion: {More skills is never a bad thing. And I can eat a lot without getting fat. So good job eating skill. You're growing well… ha. Get it. Eating skill, growing. *Sigh* I miss Eve already. She would have told me how bad that joke was.}
[Peering Level 2 (E)
1. You can see a lot clearer and a lot further.
2. You can see basic information of things or people you look at.]
Albion: {I knew you would grow well eye skill.}
Lily: Don't you mean Mr Eye skill?
Albion looked around and heard a little giggle. An embarrassing memory being dug up. Forcing him to remember again with a small blush on his face.

[Resistance Level 4 (E)
1. You have a resistance to poison, paralytics, toxics ext.
2. You have resistance to physical attack.]
Albion: {I think I got this skill from the poison. And then more when my mum was crushing me.}
Albion looked around as he felt his environment change. Instead of sitting on his bed, he was in a large lecture theatre. Pieces of paper in front of him. A pencil beside that piece of paper. He was sitting on one of the many chairs. He then saw the woman at the front of the large hall and rows of seats. All with students in.
???: Welcome to your first and long line of lessons of which are tests. Today we will not be teaching but assessing what you already know. Placing you into classes that show how well you did. These classes come in the regular ranks. However, you will not just stay in the same rank for everything. For example, if you're a lot stronger and an oaf then you may be in the A rank class for swordsmanship but the F rank class for mathematics. Now the test in front of you has several pages. You will be given 2 hours. Remain quiet. Do not look at others' test papers. Stay in your chairs. And if you cheat don't get caught. If you violate these rules for the test and any test forward there will be immediate expulsion.
Some people in pyjamas complained and immediately disappeared. Albion looked straight down at his paper. No longer looking around or at the woman at the front of the lecture theatre.
???: Take their expulsions as examples. You have two hours and can start now.
Albion picked up the pencil next to him. Following the paper. Writing down his name. The flipping the page. The first page was mathematics. The next was language, then history, then science.
Surprisingly to Albion, he didn't find the test all that hard. Besides the history part, Albion knew the other topic to a good enough degree that there were no questions he hadn't already been asked or tested on by Mrs Winchester. And with his perfect memory recalling it all was easy. However, Albion spent the two hours working on it. Making sure he wrote clearly and neatly. Understanding the question and answering it in great detail.
The female lecturer who was sitting on a chair looked up from her watch. Her red hair swayed as she stood up. Blowing a piece of hair that went into her eye.
???: Your two hours are up. Place down your pens and stop writing.
Albion followed what the teacher said to the T. Not wanting to be expelled.
???: Please all walk to your next lesson. Which is another test.
Everyone stood up and slowly walked out. Heading towards their next test which was a swordsmanship test.
