Rebirth of the Ruined Noble

Chapter 25 The Dark Art And Curses(1)



A week has passed since I discovered about the abilities of the mysterious artifact.

Nothing much happened since then except me training in the training facility with Evan daily and listening to the boring classes.

As everyone has chosen the remaining two subjects, classes will start with syllabus from this week onwards.

As for the subjects I chose, they were The Dark arts and Curses along with the Deep learning of mana.

The reason for that is simple, as I had memories from my past life, I was quite proficient in combat as someone who worked as a mercenary.

There were five subjects available for a student to chose from.

Firstly, The Poison arts and it's usage. I am quite sure that there is no one in the whole empire that was more proficient at using poison that my master, the poison queen, so I didn't even bother to look at that subject.

Secondly, Close combat lessons, I didn't think I need to learn with the green horn rich kids in the academy since I had suffered enough as a mercenary and I am also training on my own with my schedule.

As for the divine arts, let's say I have no interest in that field. Praying for the gods whom I didn't even know if exists or nor didn't suit my taste.

Besides, I chose basic combat lessons and divine arts in my previous life, both of which gave me a huge disappointment.

So, that left only two subjects.

The Deep learning of Mana and the Dark Arts and Curses.

I was interested to learn curses which are closely similar to poisons and I badly wanted to understand more about mana, so they were perfect for me.

'The first class is Curses.'

And currently, I was sitting at the back of the common classroom no.3, which was prepared for the Dark arts and Curses class.

Since every child has the right to chose any of the 5 subjects, the two elective classes were taught while combining the students who chose that particular course from all the four classes, Kshatriya, Brahmana, Vaishya and Shudra.

I took out the textbook that was provided by the academy and looked up.

Some of the students were looking at me and turned away as soon as our eyes met.

'Ah..! The gun guys rumor is still alive.'

I have been experiencing the same for the last week.

Slide!

Finally, the lecture room door opened and the professor entered. And a thunderous cheer broke loose from the students who recognized the professor.

"Lloyd Frontera!!"

"For real?"

When people thought of the words dark arts and curses, they usually thought of dark and gloomy people touching a corpse and hiding in the shade.

But now, that was nothing but a story of the past.I think you should take a look at

Modern magic users who learned curses and dark arts, had risen to become mainstream were intelligent, practical, sophisticated, and trendy. Rather, the old-fashioned and conservative image was closer to the priests.

And one of the representatives of this new generation of dark art users was Lloyd Frontera.

Wearing a white suit from head to toe, Lloyd showed off his model-like proportions.

In addition to his outstanding looks, he was a young mage in his late twenties with star qualities and who belonged to Freljord academy's core force.

He was a target of absolute admiration for the students of Freljord Academy.

Instructor Lloyd smiled and waved from the cheering of the students.

I could even hear some girls screaming and proposing to him.

What indecency!

"Nice to meet you, freshmen. I'm Lloyd Frontera, who'll be taking the 1st year The Dark arts and Curses subject this year."

Cheers broke loose once more. Instructor Lloyd raised his hands and skillfully calmed the students, then set the porkpie hat from his head down on the table.

"Then shall we call the roll? Since it's also the first time for you all to meet each other, let's include a simple introduction one by one when the names are called."

Instructor Lloyd called the roll.

"Jamie Wilson."

"Yes! Professor, I'm so honored! I came to this school following you--!"

Instructor Lloyd reached out and interrupted Jamie, then winked playfully.

"You're not introducing yourself to me. You're introducing yourself to the friends here. Again."

Small laughter could be heard. Jamie Wilson blushed and said she hoped to get along well for the semester.

After Jamie started off with a smooth start, everyone introduced themselves with the casual feeling of getting along well.

There was nothing to be gained for me to stand out in this situation, so I passed it smoothly like everyone else and sat silently.

Some students appealed to themselves in preparation for the group class while some gloated about themselves.

"Looks like there are a lot of unique students. Good."

Instructor Lloyd put down the roll, rolled up his sleeves and walked over to the blackboard.

"Then, let's start the class."
