One More Time: Rebirth

Chapter 30: Tirnanog

We, at last, reached the school grounds. At first, I thought we were on some road outside the capital in a wide-open field. But the coachman told me otherwise, he said this huge area was part of the school grounds.

So when I saw the school building I wasn't surprised, I wish I could say that. The school was a castle a freaking castle town. The school can already be compared to the size of a city. It even had its own shops and stalls inside its walls. The students were wearing different colored uniforms was that perhaps tp discern their class? Well, will find out later after meeting the principal.

Tsukiyomi and I looked around and saw many other things. We saw a lot of students practicing spells on one side. We could hear the distant sound of explosions happening here and there. The smell of different concoctions was in the air.

"TAKE MY STRIKE! 'ETERNAL ICE PRISON!'"

"THAT'S NOTHING TAKE MY COUNTERATTACK 'FLAMING HEAVENS!"

I saw two people that look like they were in a duel, shouting some impressive spell names. But then I saw that it was a normal Ice arrow and a fireball that were used. What the hell happened to the Eternal Ice prison, and the flaming heavens?

As I looked around not one person was bothered by what the two were screaming and doing. That would mean that this was a normal occurrence in this school. I then saw someone holding a sign.

'Looking for someone willing to drink trial drug. Will be rewarded with two intermediate spell scrolls.'

There was a lot of activity happening, and it was kinda getting me to feel a bit more excited than normal. As I was thinking about this, we finally reached the building where the Principal was waiting for us.

I thanked the coachman and then looked at the building before me. The building was old it had some moss here and there, but that didn't make it ugly it actually made it look ancient and magical. The stone walls of the building stood proud and tall as the sun shone down upon it. Before I could appreciate its more, I saw Tsukiyomi was already at the door.

"Come on Edge."

Tsukiyomi and I where now in front of the principal's office. It was quite easy to find since it was the room with the biggest door. I then knocked on the door. Somebody from the inside spoke, his voice sounded a bit familiar

"Come in."

Once we entered a familiar white-robed man was sitting on a chair in the middle of the room. I thought that Tsukiyomi would attack him the moment she saw him, but instead, she seems calm like usual.

So she doesn't care anymore. The white-robed man looked at us with a frivolous smile on his face.

"Oh, you've finally arrived Edge-kun, Tsukiyomi-chan. Welcome to my beloved school Tirnanog. I'm the Principal Harold Wolfstein." This guy was the principal?

Well, he does have the power for him to be the Principal of this kind of school. Also, somehow he does seem like he possesses knowledge as well.

While I was assessing him the principal took out two uniforms that were pure black. One uniform was a black blazer and jeans the other was a black blazer and skirt. On their blazers was the school crest, it was a griffin, the school symbol was a golden griffin.

The Principal then handed us a pin with the numeric number one.

"Here are your uniforms... As for Tsukiyomi, this uniform doesn't match your figure, but one look and you can change into it right?" Tsukiyomi without answering morphed her clothes into the black school uniform.

So he knows things about Ethereals. He passed me my own uniform. I was a bit surprised that the uniform fits perfectly. How much does he know and how does he know these things.

"So from today onward, you two shall become black-clad students. Also, the pin I gave you is to help others identify your year level wear it at all times."

"Black-clad students? What is that?"

"Like the Rankings of sword and magic, the students here are ranked as well. Rankings go from Grey the lowest, Green, Blue, Red, and Then Black being the highest. Usually, we would commence an entrance exam to determine your rank, but with you two that would be useless. The moment I saw you Edge-kun I could determine how strong you are. I was able to determine this with the way you walk, how you talk, where your eyes look, and even this feeling of your mana. All of these prove to me that you are strong with enough potential to become the top of this school. Tsukiyomi-chan as an Ethereal, she is more than worthy to become a black-clad student. Being a pure-blooded Ethereal she has the potential to be ranked as one of the top one hundred strongest people in this continent."

"I see..." I looked down and started to "So then what do we do now?"

"Since you two are black-clad students you may choose to join any class you want. As long as you attend two classes in a month it doesn't matter what you do. That is how special black-clad students are."

"Alright, so can I have a list of all the classes?" The principal handed me a piece of paper. The classes are numerous from sword arts, smithing, archery, cooking, and all kinds of things. I bowed and was about to leave but the principal called me back and spoke in a grandiose manner.

"Edge-kun, Tsukiyomi-chan. Welcome to Tirnanog, May your pride, courage, and power lead your way to the very clouds themselves!"
