Darius Supreme

Chapter 591 - 591

He casually observed these five wards and noticed that four of them were well-dressed, probably from the inner section of the city, given that their HoloBraces were of a higher generation in order to identify actual Citizens from Visitors. 

The last one was a commoner given their attire, but they were not poor, Darius guessed him to hail from a merchant family. The commoner was a boy, two of the nobles were girls and the other two were boys. 

Even Jolickson looked at these five with gentleness, knowing that they would soon be his juniors that he would have to take care of. They had the same level of talent as himself if not higher, given that the standard had been raised since the first admissions. 

That's right, Jolickson was that boy who had S-grade talent and Potential that Principal Elijah had bought from that slave trader Silvester Cobain! He had matured over this past year and grown to the Adept stage from being unawakened, which was unprecedented outside. 

It was what got him the Head Prefect position, apart from his seniority and his outgoing personality. The elf girl who was bought along with him and had an SS Talent and Potential was not as outgoing, so she preferred to stay indoors. 

"From left to right, report your names!" Jolickson ordered the five. 

"Say Rahh!" 

"Red Steelskin!" 

"Abby Night!" 

"Thob Star!" 

"Maxwell Lord!" (Editor's Note; As a little thank you, we've decided to name these five after some of our frequent commenters ;) . Some names had to be slightly adjusted, but hopefully you recognize your own name ^^.) 

Jolickson nodded. "All of you, follow me inside for the orientation. As for your guardians, they'll have to return to whence you came. Your wards will be officially admitted into our academy after orientation, so there's nothing more for you to do here." 

The guardians shared looks but already knew this to be the rule, so they complied and left steadily. After that, Jolickson led the lads in, while Darius followed casually. 

Even though some of them sneaked glances at him, they didn't dare look for too long. After all, the moment Darius had come in, all of their HoloBraces had gone on alert, with the Martin AI warning them not to speak, interact or acknowledge Darius' presence unless being spoken to, for he was an existence that could destroy this entire city if he wanted. 

Jolickson lead them to the orientation hall, where they were made to sit on comfortable seats. Jolickson and co sat before them while Darius simply folded his arms behind his back regally and watched with a soft smile. 

"The agenda for this orientation concerns the following four core points of Safemoon Academy: 'Tuition', 'Activities', 'Graduation' and 'Rules'."   

"For the 'Tuition', as you should know by now, the fees are set for Common Class and Elite Class students, but Master Class will be fully sponsored by our Safemoon Academy." Jolickson revealed, making the five who were in the Master Class smile proudly. 

They didn't exactly need it, but hey, it meant that their burden would be reduced. 

"The fees will have to be paid once a year before the first day of the new semester. It's the same for Common Class and Elite Class students at 1,000 Supreme Coins per year. This is strictly non-negotiable, however, don't worry, we don't expect your guardians to cover this sum each and every time, nor will we expel any student in higher years even if they are unable to gather that much." 

Jolickson simply shook his head with pity. "Students who are unable to pay will have to work dangerous jobs and activities in order to make up for it. Just do whatever you have to earn that amount within a year." 

Jolickson then continued. "Classes will start at 6 am, and tardiness for any reason will be judged by Martin based on your circumstances." 

"All courses for the next five years are fixed, we don't get to choose anything. All our teachers are digital, assigned to us by the Martin AI. As you have established a mental link with him, you will be granted some restricted access to our school's database based on what year you are in, what class you are in, your stage, as well as your talents." 

The wards remained silent and digested this info. There seemed to be no drastic changes to the previous admission, so they were not bothered. 

Seeing that there were no questions, Jolickson moved on. "Now, on to 'Activities'. Safemoon Academy will cover all your basic needs, from meals to education, everything that is absolutely necessary to turn you into capable mages." 

"During your stay here, we guarantee that you will live a comfortable life, although of course there is the option of turning the next five years into an extravagant stay."   

"If you don't want to stay in the dorm rooms provided, you can move to a private room, or even live in a special pocket space built to your liking." 

"I myself live in such a place thanks to my hard work. You can also get equipment made from higher materials than the basic one issued by the school." 

"Even though our cafeteria-served food is superior to the best noble meals you have, you can opt to go one step further and devour food that is meant for Grandmaster mages."   

"Safemoon Academy caters to your needs, and we do it fairly. Like all other academies out there, we have our own internal currency called the Safemoon. You can use it to acquire extra things, purchased through your HoloBrace. From food to accommodations, even the rights to leave the academy, or sexual favors if you so like." 

Many youths blushed at that, not having thought that far. However, the young lads among the lot couldn't help but gulp and imagine that lovely scene while the girls seemed a bit unhappy. 

"Now, the important question is: How do you earn Safemoon? There are a myriad ways to do so." Jolickson revealed as he folded his arms. 

"Simply studying hard and passing tests will net you some currency as a reward, but it would not compare to what someone less talented might earn through hard work.. Extracurricular activities are the easiest way if you truly want to strike it rich."
