Hearing the words of the students nearby made me a little surprised.
"Is there really such a rumor?"
"There is indeed such a rumor, but I don't know the exact details."
"But rest assured, Your Highness."
"Starlight High School is no ordinary high school."
"Even the five major academies won't be able to do anything."
"As long as Your Highness doesn't want to graduate, there's nothing they can do."
"Is that so?"
For now, I don't plan on graduating too early.
"Your Highness, over here."
I followed Yuna to one of the empty posts, where a woman from the military class bureau stood.
"Miss Demetria, is that right?" she asked.
"Right."
"Your main classes have been determined."
"You can fill out this form if there are any additional classes you'd like to take."
"You can think about them later if you haven't decided yet, of course, you can also choose to not take the additional classes." she explained.
"Then I won't be participating."
If it's not a must, then I won't be participating, besides, I don't want to waste my time with these classes when i can became stronger with my system.
[Ding
Thank you for the compliment, Host.]
'Sometimes I forget you can hear me.'
"Alright, Miss Demetria, next is talent registration."
"This process is to register your power and talent levels after yesterday's awakening, so we can measure each person's growth," she explained.
"I understand."
"Please place your hand on this lacrima artifact and channel your energy into it," she said, she's put a football size lacrima on the table.
After that, I placed my hand on the lacrima.
At the same time, a white light with cold energy erupted, and cracks appeared on the artifact.
"Please stop!" she shouted.
I immediately raised my hand when I heard her scream.
The letters SSS appeared above the lacrima.
"SSS-rank talent, amazing."
"Even though I've heard it before, it's still different from seeing it in person," she said.
I heard a commotion behind me, and Yuna used her body to block the people trying to approach.
"3 Stars??? Y-You've already reached 3 Stars???" she shouted.
And once again, the commotion erupted behind me, forcing Yuna to release a bit of her murderous aura to push the crowd away.
"W-Did you unlock your talent early?"
"Nothing like that."
"I only awakened my talent yesterday, my path of cultivation only began yesterday," I explained.
"B-But this is impossible, ah, I'm sorry, everything has been recorded."
"This is your badge, please inject your energy into it, this badge serves as your identification and location marker."
I accepted the badge she gave me.
It was a gold star with a griffon's head in the center, the official symbol of Starlight High School.
I injected my energy into the badge, the star's color immediately changed from gold to bluish-white, seemingly adapting to the energy injected.
After that i put the badge on my chest.
"Is that all?"
"Yes, Miss. You can go to class now."
I immediately left with Yuna after all the business with the military class bureau was completed.
"What class am I in, Yuna?"
"Your Highness, you are in Class 1-A. This class is on the 50th floor, the highest floor for Class 1."
We both boarded the elevator, which was fortunately empty—or rather, intentionally emptied by the students gathered in the lobby.
Upon reaching our destination, the elevator doors opened, and the lobby appeared before us.
While not as large as the ground floor and military class lobbies, I wouldn't call this one small either, it was at least large enough for dozens of people to line up.
"Another lobby? Why does this school have so many lobbies?"
"This is the third lobby I've entered today," I complained.
In the center of the lobby was a door no less large than the entrance.
Above it was the words '1-A Military Class'.
"Your Highness, this is the classroom."
"I'll wait here. If anything happens, just call my name and I'll be right there."
"I understand. Thank you, Yuna."
After that, I immediately opened the classroom door.
Betrix POV.
"Is sis Demi not in this class?" I asked.
"I don't know," Bella said briefly.
"She should be in this class, right? After all, this is the top class, With sis Demi's talent, there's no way she wouldn't be in here," I said, annoyed.
"You're right" Bella replied briefly.
Bella and I were currently in class 1-A.
Since we have S-rank talents, of course, we were in class 1-A.
I looked around and saw about 20 people, including them, in this class.
"Who would have thought that after sis Demi's awakening yesterday, 17 S-ranks would have awakened"
"You're right, this is a record for the most S-ranks awakened in one day" Bella replied.
We had just finished self introduction to know each other.
In front of us was a very tall female teacher, probably around 180cm.
She had long black hair tied up high, and her eyes were also black.
She was wearing martial arts attire with a black belt, and the top of her shirt was open, and her chest was bound with bandages.
From her appearance, we already know that she was a fighting teacher.
She was the homeroom teacher, and her name was Mei.
"Okay, since today is your first day, there won't be any lessons. You can wander around the school if you'd like."
"And tomorrow we'll also have an introductory match, which will essentially be a fighting class, so prepare yourselves, and don't be late" Ms Mei said.
Before Teacher Mei could leave the classroom podium, the door suddenly opened and a white-haired woman emerged from outside.
"Sorry I'm late" she said expressionlessly.
"Sis Demi" I said, waving at her.
Sis Demi looked at me and smiled.
"Thank goodness we're in the same class."
"It's okay, today is just introductions, so please introduce yourself." said Ms Mei.
"Yes, teacher" said Demi.
"My name is Demetria Northfrost, currently 15 years old, SSS-rank talent: Absolute Ice Sovereign. I'm currently at 3-star level."
" ..... " The room immediately fell silent.
"...did she just say 3-star? We all just awakened it yesterday?" said a male student named Redia, who had awakened his S-rank talent, 'Gale Wind.'
"Amazing! Is this the difference between S-rank and SSS-rank?" he said.
'Bella and I just managed to form a star shape in our cores, we're only one step away from reaching 1-star, and sis Demi is already at 3-star, If we want to keep up with sis Demi, we can't slack off.'
I looked at Bella, and Bella looked at me, It seemed we were thinking the same thing.
POV end.
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
After saying goodbye, Ms Mei left the class.
Not long after, I was immediately surrounded by students, eager to be my friend.
Since this was my first time experiencing something like this, I could only smile and answer their questions one by one before the twins came and stopped them from bothering me.
Honestly, it really helped me; I wasn't used to things like that.
"Thanks for your help earlier."
"It's okay, sis. Then we'll go."
It was strange that they left so quickly, even though I wanted to give them the teleportation stone to my place, It seemed they were busy.
Well, I can give it to them later.
Then, since I have free time today, I'll open the gift I haven't opened yet.
"Yuna."
After I called out to Yuna, she quickly ran into the classroom to where I was sitting.
"Yes, Your Highness."
This doesn't seem good
It would be better if Yuna had a skill that could instantly teleport to my side.
After all, Yuna is my first servant.
[Ding
The host can grant skills to anyone you wants, not just skills, but anything, if the host want, can be granted to others.]
'Oh, there's such a thing.'
'System, open the shop and find me a teleportation skill.'
[Ding
Open Shop > Skills > Teleportation: .....]
'There are so many teleportation skills.'
[Instant Movement, 10,000 Points: Allows the user to move instantly in any direction within 10 meters.]
'This one is cheap and very suitable for combat, but it's not what I'm looking for.'
After searching for a while, there were too many teleportation skills and the ones that suited me were too expensive, so I asked the system for help.
'System, find a teleportation skill for Yuna that matches my current points.'
[Ding
Detecting Yuna:
Name: Yuna
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Level: 6 Stars
Talent: Berserker.
Body: -
Core: Normal Core
Title: -
Note: Very high compatibility with the darkness element.]
[Ding
Due to Yuna's high compatibility with the darkness element, the system recommends a teleportation skill based on the darkness element.]
[Ding
Obtained skill:
Shadow Exchange: 300,000 Points]
[Shadow Exchange: Allows the user to teleport to the shadow of a marked target, and can hear sound around target]
' This is perfect, system, buy this skill '
[Ding
Succesfully buy skill ' Shadow Exchange '.]
'Great, this fits my needs perfectly, but I didn't expect Yuna to have such high compatibility with the darkness element, if combined with her berserker talent, wouldn't it make her extremely powerful in large-scale battles?'
'System, how do I give this skill to Yuna?'
[Ding
Host, you just need to remove the skill from your inventory without using it, and it will appear as a scroll.]
'I see.'
After hearing the system's explanation, I immediately took it out of my storage.
After that, a scroll appeared out of thin air.
I wasn't afraid Yuna would be suspicious.
Besides, she was someone I trusted, storage spaces come in various forms in this world, and that wasn't unusual.
The scroll was dark black with wavy patterns etched into its surface, it emitted a dense black aura.
"Yuna, take this."
"This?"
"This is a skill called 'Shadow Exchange', with this skill, you can teleport to a location whose shadow you've marked, and you can hear the sound around the target you marked"
"There's a skill this powerful, but why did Your Highness give it to me?"
"You're my assistant, so I need you to always be ready when I call on you, and also, because you're my servant, I want you to become stronger for me."
After hearing my explanation, Yuna immediately knelt down towards me.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Yuna will not disappoint you."
"Hmm, then let's go back. I want to cultivate some more."
"Your Highness, earlier during class, Lord Rudolf came and gave you this."
Yuna handed him a beautiful crystal blue storage ring.
"This is the best storage ring in the empire today. Lord Rudolf used his connections to ask the best master craftsman in the empire to create this ring," Yuna explained.
'Looks like I need to give Rudolf a gift later.'
"What's in it?"
"Mr. Rudolf said it's an energy stone to help you cultivate."
"Rudolf has been a great help to me, I can't let him down."
'System, what is an energy stone?'
[Ding
Energy stones, also known as Spirit Stones, are special stones filled with pure natural energy that solidify over thousands to millions of years, depending on their quality.
They are usually used to help the user cultivation by absorbing the energy within.
They are usually found in soil with a high density of natural energy.]
'Amazing, System, is it available in the shop?'
[Ding
Yes]
'Good, I'll check it out later.'
"Let's go back, Yuna."
"Yes, Your Highness."
