Toby Magic Academy is one of the ordinary magic academies for nobles and commoners on the continent.
At the opening ceremony, commoners carried small stools and sat in front, while the area behind was reserved for nobles.
Each nobleman has a small private space where his attendants and maids stand.
Talented individuals are rare, so commoners can also enter magic and martial arts academies. Of course, there are also academies on the continent of Oran that are entirely for nobles.
The true nobility reside in the high-rise buildings where talent is tested.
They had special seats there, overlooking everything below, for attending the opening ceremony.
High-ranking nobles such as royalty, dukes, and earls should rightfully enjoy this treatment.
But, little princess, Shirley…
Why did you sit next to me, Ron, on the first day of school?
\(◎o◎)／！
Since there were no extra chairs in Ron's private space, Princess Sherry's head maid brought out an expensive chair.
In addition, the princess was accompanied by three bodyguards who were specifically assigned to protect the royal family.
One of them, a master swordsman, was sent to protect the youngest princess of the royal family.
Above Princess Shirley, there is a second princess, and then a prince...
The little princess and the fourth prince share the same birth mother, which is why they came to Toby Magic Academy. The little princess is favored by the king, who specially sent a great swordsman to protect her.
I can't afford to mess with them. What if I accidentally get chopped down by the Greatsword Master Myron?
Were there any mishandling of the situation in the past few days?
Oh no! It must be because I was too honest about refusing Master Jon the other day, which aroused Princess Shirley's inappropriate interest!
It's really over.
Because of everything at this time...
The nobles and commoners present gradually turned their attention to this place.
Occasionally, one could hear one or two bold nobles or commoners talking about:
"Princess!"
"Princess!"
"..."
"Why did she come down?"
"Who's that person next to her?!"
“A nobleman, but this nobleman only has two servants. He shouldn’t be a viscount’s heir, or even a baron’s heir!”
"His outfit was rather ordinary yet expensive, wasn't it?"
"..."
The princess was naturally the center of attention, and incidentally, Ron became an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.
Regardless, he had to maintain his aristocratic manners, so Ron rose and bowed.
"Your Highness."
"Yes, Baron Ron, please sit down. This princess will attend the opening ceremony with you."
Ron was inwardly frantic, but at least outwardly he remained calm.
Sitting quietly, finally, the opening ceremony began.
The teacher above gave an opening speech...
With the attention of his classmates, both nobles and commoners, diverted, Ron couldn't help but ask the little princess beside him a question.
"Your Highness Sherry, has Ron done anything inappropriate?"
"What? You should feel honored that I, the princess, am near you?"
Greatswordsman Myron let out a timely snort, the warning couldn't be clearer.
Ron was speechless and could only say, "It would be my honor!"
I thought to myself: I hope someone else gets that honor!
Sigh, life forces us to keep moving forward, and Ron had a bad feeling about the little princess's behavior on the first day of school.
A princess is a princess. The speeches of the teachers and others above made the students below drowsy, just like in her previous life, but the princess at least pretended to listen attentively from beginning to end.
Ron, without even realizing it, closed his eyes for a while.
The long, empty speeches on stage had such a strong hypnotic effect that I didn't realize it at first, I really didn't realize it.
Seeing Ron dozing off with his eyes closed, Princess Shirley playfully kicked him.
Who is it?
There weren't many people around, so it was obviously Shirley's doing. Ron just had to put up with it; she was a princess and he couldn't afford to offend her. Couldn't he just be serious?
At this moment, because Ron shouted "Who's there?" loudly, the commoners and nobles around all looked over. The teacher on the stage had noticed Ron dozing off earlier, and now he felt even more disgusted.
Princess Shirley, why are you sitting next to this guy?
No one knew what the beautiful teacher was thinking, but the opening ceremony still had to go on.
The beautiful teacher mentioned some important points about Toby Academy.
"School rules must not be violated. Final exams will reassign classes. The Warcraft Forest training is imminent. All students, please prepare..."
Ron listened to these instructions briefly, then thought, "Hmm, they skipped over the assessments and such. Oh, so there's this monster forest training too! How troublesome."
Time passed slowly, and finally, the opening ceremony ended, and the class assignments were completed.
Wait, when was the class assignment completed? Oh, it turns out that at the opening ceremony, the teacher mentioned a list of students in the gifted class. The idea was that if the other students worked hard, they would be able to push the gifted students out of the class by the end of the semester.
Ron was fortunate enough to become a member of the genius class because of his good affinity with the four elements.
Vivian, who was standing to the side, finally seemed to care more about Ron's situation.
"Young Master, you've been assigned to the genius class. You truly live up to your reputation."
Ron whispered, "Of course!"
After the opening ceremony, it would finally be time to part ways with the little princess. With anticipation in his eyes, Ron quickly said, "Your Highness, Ron will take his leave now."
The princess subconsciously waved her hand, agreeing to Ron's request to step down.
However, at this moment, the princess revealed a teasing smile.
After going around in circles, Ron was led by his servant to the location of the gifted class.
The gifted class is a separate building with a small practice area in the garden outside, and the flowers outside are very beautiful.
The environment was nice and pleasant, but when I sat down, there was a little person next to me.
It's you again... Your Highness!
Suddenly, Ron became unhappy.
The so-called genius class in aristocratic academies is not based on talent, but on comprehension and strength, which allows other noble children to find loopholes to exploit. That's what aristocratic and commoner academies are all about!
And there are always so few like Ron, who, because of their outstanding talent, are not notified of practical tests and directly enter the junior year genius class.
With its unique back door, at least in the first year, the academy gives face to the great nobles, and the sons and daughters of dukes, the heirs of earls, and others gather in the genius class.
Most of the powerful and influential people suddenly took notice of Ron again.
How could this happen? (。＞︿＜)
That's not fair!
