Chapter 166: 162

"Now it is time to announce the class placement. The names and student ID numbers of each class are posted in front of the entrance, in the yard, and in front of the main gate. The meeting time is 11:00. Then, please disperse."

'I'm so tired,"

　I muttered to myself as I stretched out in the waiting area below the stage. I'm sure the people around me can't see my sluggish state, so I can safely yawn. Thinking back on the exhaustion of the past few days, I was finally able to catch my breath after the big event of the greeting by the valedictorian of the new students.

　As one might expect, the person at the top of the class seems to attract a great deal of attention, as it does every year. Not only from students, but also from teachers and people outside the academy. In addition, in my case, I am from the famous Hokusho family and I am a "silver comet. I was the center of attention just by walking around the town every day because of my many attributes.

It was not only spectators. Store clerks, newspaper reporters, minstrels, and others were all watching my every move, so much so that I was prepared to not be able to walk around outside properly until the heat had cooled off.

　Soon after, I realized that I could just "change my hair," and I have been able to walk around town normally ever since. It was a great thing that I had learned the " transformation and henge" spell under Marie's guidance. I thought it would be a useless and meaningless piece of trash magic that would be instantly recognized by someone familiar with magic, but it's perfect for making the average person disappear from the paparazzi's sight. I was able to reconfirm that I had not made a mistake by sticking with the unidentified adventurer "Comet" after all.

"Well, it can't be anything but S class, can it?"

"But class divisions only make sense in homerooms and at events."

The fact that the Department of Magical Research and the Department of Magical Science are in the same division of classes is a mystery in itself. What is the point of having separate classes?

The academy of magic has classes. However, there is no system of "study for each class" as there was in Japanese schools in previous live. The Academy of Magic is a credit-based school where students are free to take classes within a set curriculum for each department.

Therefore, except for a 20-minute homeroom period every morning on weekdays and class activities during the first period on certain days of the week, students basically go to the classrooms of their respective classes separately. In other words, the class divisions are almost meaningless. That is why Lily and May are giving a hard time about the mysterious system.

'According to the course guidelines, it seems that the classes you can take vary depending on the class you are in. Especially in the case of the seminar classes where the number of students is limited, it seems that you have a good chance of getting in by lottery."

It seems that the trend of a society based on merit is also prevailing here. However, there is no way to complain about the fact that people who do not have the necessary skills cannot get any benefits from taking high-level classes. The system of gradually changing the curriculum according to the level of ability of the students, in order to further develop the students with excellent grades and at the same time to improve the bottom line of the entire student body, was a system that one could not help but feel that this is a top-class educational institution in the empire.

 

'I see. ......"

"So that's how it works. It is an efficient system, isn't it?"

I was so happy to see her nodding her head, as if she was satisfied with the system of classification. s that it's a very efficient system.

"Well, fortunately all three of us are now in the same class, so let's head to the classroom. We can't stay here forever, we'll just get in the way."
Right, let's go.

"Let's go."

　I'll just note that Mei's cheeks were very soft and comfortable to the touch.

　　　　　I'll just say that Mei's cheeks were glutinous and very comfortable to touch.

　The homeroom classroom of the first grade S class was located at the far end of the first floor of the building. It was nice not to have to go up the stairs. It would have been a hassle to go up and down three or four floors in the morning. However, it was only a comforting thought, since I still had to move every time I went to class.

　When I entered the classroom, several students had already taken their seats. If this was a school in my previous life, it would be normal to have a group of acquaintances, but this is the most prestigious magic academy in the empire. It is not the kind of academy where it is so easy to pass the entrance exam among acquaintances. And since this is an S class, the highest class, it is even more so. On the first day of school, everyone in the S class seemed to be meeting each other for the first time, and there was a scene in the classroom.

"We were the only ones standing out, weren't we?"

'We're the only ones who know each other.'

'We're being looked at like crazy.'

"The three of us are me, the top student, Lily, the duchess, and Mei, the top student in the class. It would be strange if we didn't attract attention."

"Oh, Hans."

While we were sitting in the right seat and chatting away, Hans entered the classroom. He was ranked fifth in the entrance examinations and was also, of course, in the S class.

"Eberhard!　I heard your speech. You are a genius. I was inspired to do my best. "

"Hello, Lily. I haven't seen you in a year.　We've been together during the trainig in the demon forest too. Nice to see you."

"Yes, it's nice to see you, too. So, how are you?"

　Hans asked, recognizing Mei Mei wasn't at the training in the Demon Forest, and it's the first time she's met Hans. Unlike the overall head of the school, the head of the classroom alone doesn't have a widely known face, and Hans didn't seem to know her.

'I am Meir Arendahl,"I am a childhood friend of , Hal."

"Arendahl, you say ?"

"Yes. Arendahl Workshop is my family home."

　The Arendahl Workshop has been rapidly expanding in recent years and is well known throughout the empire, as some of the weapons and equipment made by the Arendahl workshop are used in the imperial army, including the court mage division, and Hans, whose father is a member of the court mage division, knew the name.

"So the three of you have known each other since childhood.'

'Yes, we are.'

　It is a blessing to be able to sit at the same desk in the same class as these two, who have been together since childhood.

　After the four of us had been talking for a while, the atmosphere in the classroom suddenly changed. It was not tense, but I felt a presence that I could not ignore, as if my back was naturally straightened.

"Hal, it's His Highness Friedrich. ".

'"What?"

　I looked at the entrance of the classroom and saw a face I had seen at several social parties I had attended before .

　Shining blonde hair. A slender nose. A relatively small but charismatic, intelligent and kind face. His Imperial Highness Prince Friedrich, the third prince of the Highland Empire, is here.

This is His Royal Highness Prince Friedrich. This is the first time we have exchanged words like this, right ? I am Eberhard, the heir apparent of the Farenheit frontier count family, who has been given the rank of maturity officer by His Majesty the Emperor."

"I am Henriette Lily von Bernstein, Eberhard's fiancée and the eldest daughter of the Dukes of Bernstein.'

　She greeted him with the perfect distance and tone of voice, without being overly familiar and yet not too distant, so as not to be rude. Since my family is a noble family, this kind of etiquette has been drilled into me since I was a child. While everyone else was frozen by the sudden appearance of the prince, I was able to respond to him in a way that was desirable, and I want to congratulate myself for having done so well.

　His Highness, who received Lily and I's greeting, replied cheerfully with a gentle smile.

"Hi, u. I have heard rumors about you. Thank you for all you do for the empire. I would like to thank you on behalf of my father. Bernstein, your father's work has also been of great help to the country. Since I cannot thank the Duke in person, I will say it here."

'You are too kind to say so, Your Highness."

"I am sure my father will be pleased to hear you say so."

Although this was our first conversation, I felt as if I had already been taken in by the warm atmosphere that His Highness was exuding. Is this the royal family by birth? It's amazing. ......

"f possible, I would like you to treat me as a friend."

"I'm sorry."

I don't even need to use honorifics. I'm the same age as you, and you're making me uncomfortable."

But, ..."

"I want to be your friend. You're ...... a little taller than I am?"

　The first time I saw him, he looked up at me and asked me if I was a good friend of his. Oh, God, I can't help it!

"I'm ...... , all right. Is this okay?'

"Yes, thank you!　I will take care of you from now on.'

　His Highness Prince Friedrich holds out his hand to me . I looked at him with doubt

"It's nice to meet you, too."

"Nice to meet you, Your Highness."

　'I'm the same age as you , and it's making me uncomfortable."

But, ..."

"I want to be your friend. You're ...... a little taller than I am?"

, he looked up at me and asked me if I it was a good fine to be friends with me . Oh, God, I can't help it!

, "I'm ...... , all right. Is this okay?'

"Yes, thank you!　I will take care of you from now on."

　His Highness Prince Friedrich holds out his hand to me happily saying so. I also greeted him back, holding his hand.

"It's nice to meet you, too.

"Nice to meet you, Your Highness."

　Lily, beside me, has also dropped honorifics and greets His Highness Frankly. His Highness seemed very happy to get two friends at once. I never thought that the true identity of the "Noble Lord of Running Water" was such a cute little guy's daughter. ......

　Up to this point, I had only been watching from afar, so I was shocked to see His Highness's appearance, which was totally different from what I had expected. The "Nutritional Disease" is a problem that is usually a lot more difficult to deal with than it is to deal with.
