Chapter 3: 3

Jane had taken care of the bed problem, and when she returned to her room, it was empty. She told Arthur to get out and explore if he wished to do so, but she never expected him to do that. He did not know anything about the academy, and it was already late at night.

“Where were you?” Jane said.

Arthur would not tell her what happened, so he gave her only a part of the truth.

“I needed food, so I went to a restaurant,” Arthur said.

“Hm, but why did it take you so long?” Jane felt that something was amiss, but she could not figure out what.

“You know that I don’t have money, so I went to different places begging for food, and eventually, someone gave me.”

“Really?” Jane got closer and grabbed both of Arthur’s hands.

“Why didn’t you tell me? Money is not a problem for us, okay? I’ll give you all the money you need to buy food.”

.

Arthur could feel that she was telling the truth. Maybe being her familiar had more behind than what the eyes could see. Putting that aside, Arthur saw the newly acquired bed. It was the same as the other bed in the room, and Arthur felt glad that he got the same treatment as the students.

The soft bed was something he could not resist. So Arthur decided to lay there and sleep. Arthur used some of his energy with Annen and Evel, so it was time to recharge for tomorrow.

“I can watch the class with you, right?” Arthur said as he lay under the blanket.

“Of course. Good night,ehhhh,” Jane remembered that she never asked his name.

“We talked for an entire day, and you did not remember to ask my name?” Arthur said.

“Don’t laugh, okay? You coming from the Dream Realm scared the shit out of me. The summoning of a familiar is the first step for a wizard, and I thought I messed it up.

“It’s okay. I’m Arthur.”

The beds were close, so Arthur performed the same move again. He grabbed Jane’s hand and kissed it.

“Good night, Jane.”

Jane quickly hid using her blankets and said, “good night, Arthur.”

All of the room’s lights went out, and Arthur finally got the chance to rest.

The sun shone brightly. It was a new day and one that made Arthur excited. Jane had classes to attend, and all familiars followed their wizards. He wanted to see if he could learn magic or see if there was another subject that got his attention.

“Fighting melee would be nice. I’m guessing that I need to be close to absorb the mana from others,” Arthur thought.

They got up early in the morning, and Jane showed him the way to the class. Just like in the dorms, the classes were separated based on the year of the student. Jane went to a building where all of the first-year students went.

The classroom had many chairs for students to sit, and most familiars were small, so they all had a place to stay. But Arthur was a human, so Jane had to put a chair beside her for him to sit. Everyone gazed at them when they entered the classroom. There wasn’t a single student within the academy that did not know about Arthur’s existence. And it was a fact that, in the future, everyone would know about the first human from the Dream Realm.

There wasn’t a schedule in the academy. All classes were random. It was a tactic to prepare all students for whatever problem they faced.

All of the students inside the classroom chatted happily before the professor arrived, but once it did, everyone was silent.

A red-haired woman entered the classroom. She had a sword attached behind her back and wore an outfit that looked more like armor.

“This woman is gorgeous and also imposing. She looks more like a valkyrie than a wizard,” Arthur thought.

Based on how the students reacted when she entered the classroom, Arthur knew that she was a rigorous teacher. Perhaps all of the teachers were like that, but that was something Arthur could not confirm.

She stopped and sat behind her desk. Once she noticed Arthur’s presence, she knew he was the one from the Dream Realm.

“You must be the one from the Dream Realm, am I right?” she rested her chin on her hands and said, “I’m Wisa. I’m in charge of the combat classes within the academy.”

Wisa had the looks of a combat teacher, and she was indeed the one in charge of it.

“All right, class. Seeing that all of you now have your familiars, today we will have a test to see your coordination,”

“You’ll face each other in a match. You can use everything in the fight as long as it is not lethal. And you have to use your familiar to fight. So it will be a two versus two in the end.”

Arthur was excited about that. It was a golden opportunity to test his body limits, and also see if being level 2 was good or not. All of the other familiars did not look strong, and all of the students were rookies. So, Arthur guessed that both he and Jane had the advantage.

Wisa guided them to the courtyard. The fights would happen in an arena built outside of the building. Arthur still did not know what weapon to use, so she asked Wisa.

“You can choose any type,” Wisa said.

She gave him a few basic weapons to choose from. A sword, a greatsword, a spear, a mace, and a bow.

Arthur liked all of the weapons, so he wasn’t sure what to choose. But then, he gave up trying.

“Why choose if I can master all of the weapons? Let’s start with the basic, a sword,” Arthur thought.

The weapons Wisa gave him were not particularly good, but it was a start. Arthur grabbed the sword and stayed close to Jane, waiting for his time to fight. And of course, they would be the first ones to fight.

“Jane, come here. You’ll be facing Lene,” Wisa said.

“Are you ready, Arthur?” Jane was worried that Arthur had zero fighting skills.

“Always,” Arthur said.
