Chapter 214: Detailed Account of College Life
When the thieving boy took out a dozen magic stones from his arms, the air around him became noticeably cooler. Kira felt that the other candidates looked at him with a lot more indescribable meanings. He thought that his college life in the next few years would be very interesting!
Kira couldn't help but smack his lips: "Really, the kid who stirred up the storm in the entrance examination is just like the protagonist in a novel..."
The attack of [Demon's Heart] destroyed most of the buildings in Demisool College, including the auditorium where the reporting meeting was originally scheduled to be held. This forced Conas to temporarily change the venue to a square near the entrance of the valley that had not been used for a long time.
In the square, a few old street lamps flickered with dim light, and there was still some residual heat on the ground. Fortunately, the air in the valley was always clear and clean, and the moonlight was bright and would not interfere with the vision.
The 24 students who were about to enter the school consciously lined up into a 4×6 matrix. After a day of traveling and fighting, they had gained a certain understanding of the people around them and were now whispering to each other.
As for the topics of communication, they were nothing more than "Why does this academy look so shabby?" etc., which made Conas, who was standing in the front, feel a little embarrassed.
There is no other way. The academy has just experienced a great war, and it is not easy to free up a place in such a short time.
"Ahem... I'm Conas, the dean of Demisool Magic Academy. First of all, congratulations on passing the three exams of this year's admissions assessment..."
As the dean, Conas was naturally the first to stand up. Less than two hours after the battle ended, there was no trace of murderous aura on her body. She had regained her original elegant temperament. Coupled with her kind and gentle attitude, she quickly won the favor of all the freshmen and made Kira marvel that she was an actress better than himself.
Conas spoke slowly to the freshmen. Her cold voice quickly attracted the children's attention. As the freshmen were eagerly waiting, she gave them verbal praise and encouragement.
Kira, Haiberion and Gulandoma stood aside and listened silently. The more they listened, the more they admired them.
I have to say that he is worthy of being the dean for more than ten years. He doesn't even need to prepare a draft for a speech on such an important occasion. He speaks fluently and with great emotion and appeal. He is almost as good as Markov.
"In order to reassure your guardians and to prepare you for school, the academy has decided to hold the entrance meeting seven days later. For everyone's safety, you can rest in the valley tonight. Tomorrow morning, the academy will arrange for teachers to take you and other candidates back to Hams City."
The other candidates that Conas mentioned were naturally the failed students. After the sun went down, they were taken to the valley by the teachers of the academy for settlement. They were all children, so it was impossible to let them sleep in the wild.
The next morning, Conas ordered a group of teachers to lead the candidates back to Hams City, and even suspended the reconstruction of the academy for this purpose. Kira and other three invited guests were also on the return journey. Since there was still one month of teaching to go, the three did not leave.
If the academy had not been destroyed, they could have chosen to stay in the academy to play during the seven days of preparation for school. But now, Dean Conas was busy with the reconstruction of the academy and could not accompany them. The magic library was not open to the public, so they could only be supervisors if they stayed, so it was better for them to go back to the city.
After returning to Hams City, Kira continued to eat, drink and have fun all day long, enjoying the scenery of other cities, food streets, amusement parks, magic shops... He visited every place. In addition to the three little ones he brought with him, there was also Rufus.
Although Ika still occasionally had some conflicts with him, the friendship between the two had obviously grown in an unusual way.
On the other side, Zankro, Azuma and Brunotte were taken back to the Council prison by Grandomo and Haiberion. Kira didn't know whether Hades would rescue them, but he was sure that this unexpected development would have a lot of impact on the original plot.
“Hehehe… I don’t know how Urrutia will explain to Hades when she returns. Should she say that she got lost?” Kira wandered around while thinking about the future of [Devil’s Heart]. “Hades is really miserable. Half of the combat power he has cultivated over the years is gone.”
Apart from Hades himself, the only high-level fighters left in the guild were Urrutia, Melty, the concrete man and the fat man.
Among them, the fat man is a brainless one; Melty's magic is not very effective when fighting alone, it will be a one-for-one exchange, and she also has serious psychological problems at this time; Urrutia is busy looking for the truth of "Mom doesn't love me".
"So, if you calculate it this way, the only person in the guild who is of decent strength is this concrete guy whose name is hard to remember. How pitiful! But to be honest, the magic of the Arc of Concrete is still very powerful. If there is a chance, we can recruit him to work for us!"
Kira has been coveting the magic that can create money and metal for a long time!
…
Seven days passed quickly, and nothing happened during this time. On the last day, Haiberion and Gulandoma also rushed back from the Council. According to them, the process of escorting the prisoners was smooth, and no one broke into the prison in the next few days. This made Kira somewhat disappointed. To be honest, he wanted to see Hades and the Council fight.
When Kira brought the children back to Demisool College for enrollment, he was surprised to find that the college had been almost completely rebuilt.
You know, the entire Demisool School of Magic, plus the valley outside the school, covers an area larger than Tianlang Island! This construction speed is incredible.
When I saw Conas again, she had a smile on her face. After asking around, I learned that she was finally able to build new dormitory and office buildings with a legitimate reason.
The buildings were simple and elegant in style, and the decorations were gorgeous and expensive, which made Kira envious.
"Our academy has a history of more than 200 years, and countless famous wizards have come out of here..."
On the first day of school, three invited guests, including Conas and Kira, and 24 freshmen, led by the college teachers, toured the renovated college step by step.
Auditorium, teaching building, housing area, library, office building, various scenic spots, arena , food court, sports field, hot spring, magic shop, farm ranch, and after this renovation, amusement park, cinema and other places were added. Everything Kira could get or could not think of was here. It was almost a self-sufficient town, and it was even richer than Magnolia.
"It really deserves to be the best magic school in the Kingdom of Fiore. It has a lot of funding! The residents here are even happier than those living in the capital..."
Most of the residents in the academy are teachers and students. The rest either run shops or have special talents in the fields of breeding and animal husbandry. There is not a single ordinary person. It can be said that those who live here are the real high-end talents of the Kingdom of Fiore.
Kira sighed from the bottom of his heart: "This is simply a paradise! I can consider living here in my old age in the future!"
Haiberian held the wine glass in his hand all year round and recalled: "Life in the academy is actually not as good as imagined. First of all, it is very troublesome to move in, and there are many troublesome rules here. Even if you have the ability to avoid detection, you can't come and go at will. Once you are discovered, you will be deprived of the qualification to live here."
Gulandoma nodded and continued, "That's right. Even someone like me who has been doing research for many years will want to go out and walk around sometimes. It's impossible for people to stay in the same place forever."
Like Conas, these two people were from the academy and kept talking about this kind of thing, but Kira just felt that they were being Versailles.
"We can't come and go as we please?" Kira was overjoyed. "This is simply the paradise that otakus dream of!"
“…”
After the explanation from the teacher, Kira finally understood the true appearance of the Demisool School of Magic and the general living conditions of the residents there:
The city in this valley is centered around the academy, and the dean and teachers of the academy manage all the residents of the city. Students are the focus of education, and they can only make money to support their livelihood by accepting tasks issued by the academy, which is similar to accepting commissions from magic guilds. For these young wizards, the expenses of food, clothing, housing and transportation all come from this.
Compared to the magic guild, Kira felt that this lifestyle was more like the Hokage next door.
The city in this valley is Konoha Village, the academy is the Ninja School, the dean is the Kage, and the students are the Ninjas.
The biggest difference between Demisol Academy and the Magic Guild is that here, if you don't do commissions, you will starve to death; while in the outside world, you can choose to change careers.
It is worth mentioning that everyone here, from the dean to the freshmen, has an apartment.
Although all students were assigned an ordinary cabin when they first moved in, this has been the lifelong dream of many people outside. Not to mention, there are many successful cases where after years of hard work, they have successfully evolved their residences from cabins into boutiques, or even luxurious villas!
Just based on this point, Kira felt that Natsu, Lucy and others would cry to death when they knew it.
You know, the place where Natsu and Happy live is much more simple than the cabin here!
