Blacksmith Volume 2 Chapter 1
Today, ins
I got up early today to make sure my uniform was in order
You see, the uniforn that uses the colour white as their base, while more expensive decorations accented other areas These truly are uniforms created for a school centered around the nobility
I confirmedtall with a skinny disposition, yet still having decent ood on me if I do say so myself
“Yeah, this is good”
Kururi Helan
Today is the beginning of the fate I resolved o
As I passed through the door offora uniform of their own
“Let’s go”
“Yeah,” “Yes!”
Elenoire Academy
When looking at the school building from a bird’s-eye view, it seems to take on the form of the katakana for Russia(ロ)
I heard that it has a vast garden surrounded by buildings If it’s true, it would probablylunch or after school
Truly, a land for the rich!
The east side of the school is where the majority of the classroo out the most
We study the required courses in the base classes, which are divided from letters ‘A’ to ‘J’
The north side of the school holds all of the rooms for the practical electives, while just outside it is the school field used for activities and events
It’s a big field!
I heard that there are even classes where you cultivate your ownschool I wouldn’t be surprised if there were
Since I’m on the topic, the south side of the school holds the library that Iris is fond of, while the west side are rooms that students can use for individual reasons
It’s good to know these things if you want to live a healthy school life
… and once we finally arrived at school, the class roster was there to greet us
As expected, Vaine and I were placed into the A-class
Crossy was unfortunately was put into the C-class
Its feels a little lonely to be divided so soon
The school was created in the arrangement that the first years were on the third floor while the third years were on the first floor
The A class was the one closest to the stairs, while the J class was in the back
There were already a few students in class e entered
I looked around, but neither Eliza or Iris seemed to be here yet
Our seats were already pre-determined, where I was placed in the back left-hand corner, Vaine sat in the back right-hand corner
Vaine couldn’t help but insist that ere intentionally seated this way for some reason
I don’t really think so though
The students eventually started flowing in in droves, all taking their respective seats once class started
Eliza’s in the second seat froht
We’re a bit far from each other
Well, I can still see her during class so it’s not all bad
Eventually so homeroom
“Ah”
It was the Phys-ed instructor fro like that
“Everyone,as your teacher for the next year, nice to uys Its an honour to be the one to teach the outstanding A-class”
Wu-sensei was the slender-but-handso his hair in a ponytail and all that
Although I’ve only seen him twice myself, he seems to only wear clothes made for exercise for some reason
Wu-sensei’s lecture had started, but it was only the schedule for ere doing today
“Before anything else is the entrance cere accepted here is so that you should celebrate, no? After that return to the classrooive an explanation of how the school class system works”
Once his lecture was over, Wu-sensei led us to theplace on the north side of the school
The fresh of A-class to the end of the J-class
We were gathering at the event grounds outside, but I think the entrance ceres like the gymnasium
nobody wants to just stand outside, and it could even be freely decorated if it were held there
For the aristocracy it’s not an exaggeration to say that this is the rand welcome
Two burlyat the entrance to the asseates
“Congratulations on your admission!”
Overflowing cheers erupted froates
A grand welcome created by our upperclassmen
The road to the hall was adorned with the flowers planted yearly, giving off a gorgeous viehile inside the ceilings and walls were all decorated with bright and sparkling ornaments
It’s beautiful Nante
Heart was Odo’ to hospitality that exceed expectations
It is not only I, have the sarade us
It was beautiful
My heart was grasped by the hospitality that far exceeded my expectations
I wasn’t the only onea stupefied face, everyone else in the first-year was too
“Wow”
I turned s
It’s been awhile since I rejoiced so purely
The flower-path continued on inside, leading up to a group of chairs where the first-years took their seats
“Everyone, what a fine day it is today”
The person as talking was an old man who seemed to have lived a splendid amount of years
“I am the principal of this school, Aidan Maurice and I would like to congratulate all of you from the bottom of my heart on your admission
While it s, I would like to think that you would prefer to strive for the best in your studies during your next three years here
Now that’s enough from an old man like me, so please enjoy this next event created by your upperclassmen just for you”
The freshmen raised up cheers of joy
Their exhilaration just didn’t seem to have an end
As if he had wings, a youngat the podium and raised his voice
“Now let’s party!”
With thelike circus
Song, dance, and games, once all the events were done the entrance ceree sense of satisfaction
That was a great experience, and with this the first year of ins
It’s a good tradition, I wonder if we’re going to reat next year?
Everyone continued talking about the entrance ceremony on the way back to the classroom
I mean, how could we not?
“Excuse me…”
A voice suddenly called out to irl
“You’re Kururi Helan right?”
“Yeah?”
The girl hugged her waist with her arms, while her eyes seemed to sparkle a little
“I knew it! I-I’m a fan of Kururi-san afterall!”
A fan?! I have fans?!
Why do I have fans?! I don’t re…
“Oh umm… yeah, and your name was?”
“My name is Heart Valentine”
The eyes of the girl who named herself as Heart seemed to be in some sort of trance, and try as Ia quick look at her chest which see characteristics
“I’ve heard ruot a perfect score in the placeic studies”
“Well…”
I couldn’t help but feel a little eht forwardly I scratched my head that suddenly felt itchy for some reason
“Not to mention you’re also the next in line to become the lord of the Helan territory, isn’t that unfair? Some people just have all the luck”
“Well, you’re not too bad yourself to be set into the A-class Heart-san”
“I-I guess”
We shook hands as she panicked a little
“In just the first grade there’s now Kururi-san, Prince Arc, Rail-san, and Eliza-san, y-you’re going to be the school’s miracle four! People on a whole other dimension from us ordinary folk”
What’s with that na!
“···Yes”
