17 Chapter 4 4 : Orientation (2/2)

By this point, most of the students were probably wondering who 'Ryuu' was, but they'd learn pretty quickly.

”Now, we have the magic teachers for various elements. For fire, lightning, dark, curse, and shadow, we have Fran, the Black Lightning Queen. For water, earth, explosion, metal, and mud, we have the aptly named Blast Steele. For light, healing, spatial, and void, we have Miss Healing. For wind, ice, and dust, we have Fubuki. And finally, for summoning and taming, we have Souta. In the order in which I said their names, they will introduce themselves” (HM)

First, Fran, a black-haired cat-eared girl of 15 or so stepped forward, an oversized sword on her back.

”Nn. Fran. B rank adventurer. Black Lightning Queen. I'll teach you magic. I'm young, but good. Have familiar. Black wolf. Urushi. Hides in shadow” (Fran)

After that, an old dwarf carrying a hammer stepped up to take her place, speaking in a loud voice.

”The name's Blast Steele. I'll whip your magical skills into shape, so don't slack off or you'll be blown into next week! I was a magic toolsmith, but my arms are too shaky for the work, so I just teach magic now” (Blast)

From there, an elderly high elf woman walked forward with the aid of a cane... or rather, a staff, I guess.

”You can call me Miss Healing. In addition to being a teacher, I also work as the school nurse sometimes, so I don't want to see you in my office if I don't have to” (Miss Healing)

Before she finished walking back to her chair, an angry-looking human woman in her 20s took her place on the stage.

”I'm Fubuki, a B rank nearing A rank. I'm also known as Hell's Blizzard. Don't make me mad” (Fubuki)

Finally, we had Souta, a human male who looked to be about 20, who carried nothing as a weapon.

”I'm Souta, your teacher for summoning and taming. I'll also teach you about magic beasts, sometimes known as monsters, so if you want to learn about either of those, my doors are always open. I have several summons, and I only know of one student, namely, Ryuu, who has a summon this year, but it's a strong one. To that one student, I say this: come to my classroom after classes today, and I'll help you out with raising her” (Souta)

He went back to his seat, and Elizabeth, the headmistress, came to the front again.

”Finally, there's me. I am one of those who will teach you the general classes, such as mathematics, the rules and regulations for being an adventurer, and I'm also a librarian. Speaking of which, the library is that building there. It's open from three past noon until an hour after sunset, and from an hour before dawn to half an hour before classes start. Books cannot be taken out of the library, food and drinks cannot be taken in. Oh, one more thing: Your roommates are your temporary parties for the duration of your time here. Try to get along with them. Furthermore, to the twelve girls here, don't get knocked up. Dealing with students who have kids is a real pain, understand? For the guys, don't get anyone pregnant, even if they aren't a student here. All of you can feel free to have a love life or whatever else, even get married if you want, just don't have kids until you graduate. No bringing boys to the girls dorm, no bringing girls to the boy's dorm. If you don't want to sleep in the dorms some nights, you can do so, just make sure to be back in time for classes. The weekends are your free days, you can even do quests as adventurers on those days. However, your student IDs have a rank on them. No accepting quests that are above your rank. Now, you should all get to your first classes” (HM)

Char, Elise, Mae, and I compared our schedules, and learned we were all in the same homeroom class with Fran. Char and I had Fran's class right after, at the same time that Elise had Aaron's class and Mae had Blast's. After that, Char and Mae had had Mr Sword's, while I had Mr Axe and Elise had a free slot. Then, Elise, Char, and I had Miss Healing's while Mae had a free slot, followed by Char going with me to Fubuki's while the other two were free for the rest of the day, save for general classes at three. Actually, I was in all of Char's fixed classes but the sword. Basically, the dorm rooms were together as much as possible. Anyways, I was in all of the magical classes as well as two of the weapon classes.
