Chapter 63: My first two days at the academy
After the test was done, those who were selected would start their studies at the academy in two days. Those two days were the adjustment period allocated to us. Most of the students would have never left their homes and would have some problems in a new environment.
This was especially true for many noble-born and rich children. They can't enjoy the same advantages that they enjoyed while they were with their families. They had to earn everything here.
Of course, it was not all bad for them. Except for the rooms that they live in and the training opportunities, everything else could be brought for a price. It was just a matter of number to many of these brats.
Well, I am one of them but at the same time, I am not. They were still young and had yet to go through the difficulties of life but I had that experience before.
The allocation of these rooms is different.
The top ten have individual houses with various training rooms. As the top candidate, my house has almost everything. The academy provided me with almost everything that I needed, except for a few things.
Training rooms like Gravity rooms are costly and so there are only a few. There are no personal ones given to the students. Everyone has to come to the open training grounds, where they are located.
To use them, one needs the Points. Without them, no one can use them. Not even the top student.

The two days were meant to make contact with others and that's exactly what I did. There were a few students that I was unable to meet because they started training. The most important ones were the second rank, Malia, and the other one was the possible protagonist character, Dorian.
He made it to the top ten, which means he already has a good foundation and can even reach the top rank. Too bad for him, I am here. If not for me, I believe that by the end of the year, he would reach the first rank.
I think that he was indeed trying to reach such rank, and he neglected meeting others who would be with us for the next five years unless some unforeseen events happened, which are more likely with his presence.
Anyway, if you have to march into battles, you need comrades that you can trust in. Without them, no one is invisible. Even if the person is the child of luck, death would get him in the end. The longer one can survive would be if they have comrades who can take some pressure off you.
It was not just for battles, but also in other parts of life, they were needed. Without someone to help you, you can never proceed far in life.
If that idiot spends all his time in training, then he would have no friends.
Unlike Dorian, who is a commoner, Malia has no such problems. From what I heard, she comes from the Hasker family. They are from the south, so my family didn't have much interaction with them. We only know that they exist and are a pure military family.
Malia's father is a Count and her family is high in the military. So everyone would understand her training. She would not face the same problems as him.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with me.
---
Even though I mingled with others, I kept it simple. I didn't want to be entangled too much if something bad happened to them.
This is the problem with having relationships with others. Without them, life would be hard and when we lose them life would be worse. So I kept it light so that others wouldn't see me as arrogant and cause me trouble.
At the same time, I didn't waste much time but allocated most of my free time to training.

There were not many changes in these past few days. With that dungeon experience and by using the training facilities in my dorm, I increased two of my skills.
One was the Staff Arts, which was already on the verge of reaching the next level. All it needed was a little push and I reached level 9.
Mind control reached level 3, which was due to the dungeon monsters. I kind of used that skill to control some monsters and kill other monsters. I have no idea how my bracelet counted those kills as mine, but it doesn't matter much.
Even if the academy knows that I am hiding my true strength, unless I do something bad, they won't move against me.
Moreover, I don't think everyone would know that I am hiding some of my skills. Even if they knew about that, they would just think that I am keeping them as trump cards. Everyone has some trump cards. What they select those trump cards to be, depends on the person.
The academy wouldn't be afraid just because I have one or two tricks up my sleeve.
So I believe that my secret is safe, as long as I don't show everything.

The two days went by without realizing that they had gone by. It was time for the academy to start where I could learn what I couldn't learn at home.
