Chapter 90: Homeroom
Silva ironed things out with Aaron. He told him that he had inherited the legacy, which turned him half dragon.
Silva didn't go into much detail about it, and he also hid a huge chunk of things.
As they kept talking, a knock sounded on the door. Aaron walked to the door and opened it. There were two boxes outside.
On each box, their names were written on it. Aaron carried both boxes inside and handed Silva's box to Silva.
Silva opened his box, and inside was his uniform, cleanly folded, a rule book, a card about his classes, a basic storage ring, and a piece of paper with some information written on it.
Silva first took out the card and started reading it.
[As the current highest scorer in all exams combined, you will be part of the S class, the elite class.]
The class system in the academy was simple. It started from S class all the way to F class.
The S class were the elite, the top of the top. They were normally the lowest in number, only having about twenty-five students out of the five hundred that got enrolled.
About ten were taken from the general exams and fifteen from other exams. So the top ten from Silva's exams were in the S class, which meant Fay, Lia, and his real brother and sister would be there as well.
"What class are you in?" Aaron asked.
"Class S," Silva replied.
"Oh, that's cool, we are in the same class then," Aaron said.
"If you don't mind me asking, what organization recommended you?" Silva asked.
"Oh, mine is the Magical Association. My dad had affiliations there, so they picked me to be a recommendation.
I came second in our exam. The first was a girl; she had terrifying magical abilities, and she is only human," Aaron explained. "But the winner of the general exams must be on another level. I heard that he wasn't even in our league.
And that his magic and strength were already that of a level 60 or more. Well, either way, what position did you get? It must be high up, considering your strength," Aaron asked.
"I was first," Silva said without much care.
"Wait, what? You are the one everyone was talking about? Well, it does make sense since your magic suppressed mine.
I'm really happy we didn't turn into enemies, that would have been it for me," Aaron said with a laugh.
They decided to try on their uniforms, and they were tailored to their size. They also had an extra pair and an ID card.
When Silva picked up his ID card, a holographic number flashed from it: 1500 points.
They didn't know what that was, so he picked up the paper inside and read it.
According to the paper, purchases and many other things in the academy were handled by points, and points were gained through certain activities or even the buying and selling of items.
Points could be transferred from account to account and so on.
All students were given five hundred points, but those that made S class got one thousand, and those that made first in the different tests, from general to the recommended tests, got 1500 points.
That was why Silva got that amount, while Aaron got a thousand.
Silva and Aaron spent the remaining part of the day talking and getting to know each other more. Silva spoke in a free tone.
But he kept this aura around him that served as a warning to Aaron to never get too comfortable with him.

The next day was the beginning of everything about the academy. All classes were to meet for their first homeroom class.
Silva and Aaron got ready, they put what they needed into the storage rings and put them on their fingers.
They walked out of the dorm building, and Silva saw Fay and Lia already there waiting for him.
"Silva!" they called out at the same time. Lia was in front, so she managed to get to him first and hugged Silva, not allowing Fay to get close to him.
But even after Lia finally let go, Fay still went in for a hug regardless, and Silva let her, because she would probably get angry if he refused.
Aaron, on the other hand, just stood there, confused as to what was happening. Silva noticed that and decided to introduce them.
"Aaron, this is my sister Lia, and my friend Fay. Fay is the daughter of the Viscount from my town," Silva introduced them.
"Yeah, nice to meet you," he said in an awkward way. He shook their hands and glanced at Silva with eyes that said, 'Sister and friend? Really? That's all?'
Silva looked back at him with eyes that said, 'Of course, that's all.'
After they got acquainted, they headed to the class. They had small maps of the academy, so they knew where their homeroom class was.
The door was closed when they got there, so Silva pushed it and walked in. It seemed they were the last to arrive.
As soon as they stepped in, all eyes turned to them. Those who didn't know Silva scanned him from head to toe.
But those who knew him either just looked away or got pissed at his presence, one of them being Oliver.
Michael saw Silva and immediately ran out to meet him.
"Hey, Silva," Michael greeted in a casual way.
"Yeah, what's up, Michael?" Silva replied.
This was just to show everyone that Michael was acquainted with Silva, and since Silva was the strongest here, that made Michael untouchable.
A simple logic, but it would prove effective. Silva and the others sat down in an empty space close to Michael, and they waited for class to start.
While they waited, Silva had his eyes on a purple-haired girl sitting in front. He could tell from a glance that she was the one Aaron spoke of.
The amount of Mana flowing through her was absurd—well, for a girl her age, that is. Her mana was almost half that of Silva.
