Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits

Chapter 231 Selene Rainwarden

"Of course not.

The Student Council President is someone else.

The only student who is capable of keeping that bastard in check."

Vaelen revealed and Vaan couldn't help but be shocked.

"The only student capable of keeping him in check…?"

Vaan repeated the words Vaelen said. Unable to contain his curiousness, he questioned,

"Who is the Student Council President?"

Hearing his question, Vaelen just smiled, then, he turned towards the stage, and with a gleeful look on his face, he pointed at Declan.

"Just wait for it."

Vaan was confused. However, he soon noticed that Declan's face had distorted even further, it was clear that he wasn't looking forward to the next bit of the Induction.

"Since the matter is already up, let me welcome the Student Council President herself to come forward and address all the new students."

Vaan finally understood what Vaelen was trying to say and why Declan was acting like this. At the same time, he also pitied Declan, for him to force himself to invite a person he didn't like…

For someone like Vaan, who wasn't a fan of all these formalities, it was no different than a nightmare.

His reaction, however, was different from the rest of the students.

"YEAAAHHHH!!!! PRESIDENT!!!"

The entire auditorium erupted in cheers and thunderous applause, the welcome the student council president received was something that was close to the reaction Astra received and this girl was part of the Academy. That meant, that unlike Astra, who most people here were seeing first and maybe the last time, these people see the Council President regularly, but despite this situation, to be able to induce such a reaction from the crowd…

"I can understand why the president would be a difficult opponent to face. Someone with support this big is always a troublesome opponent."

Vaan nodded in understanding.

He was shocked at the sight of all the old students cheering at the top of their lungs, their eyes bright with endless joy and respect.

"What faction does the President belong to?" Vaan questioned with a curious look on his face.

After all, someone who could attract the crowd to herself and steal with limelight of the Declan Dawncrest couldn't possibly just be a nobody, if possible, Vaan wanted to recruit such a person in his faction.

He could already see just how much he would benefit from her being on his side.

Vaan was already thinking about different ways the president could help him, but suddenly, a frown appeared on his face when he realized that Vaelen hadn't answered his question yet.

With his brows furrowed, he turned towards the man, however,

*Clap* *Clap*

He only saw the sight of the 49-year-old Vaelen sitting on his seat, clapping for the President's welcome with his eyes filled with joy and impatience to see her. It was an odd sight, something that Vaan couldn't help but blink at.

The normal students were different, Vaan already regarded them as side characters, but Vaelen…

Was he the same arrogant man who stood up against him a few weeks ago?

To think he would be clapping and cheering like a little boy…

Honestly, this creeped Vaan out.

And noticing his expression, Isabel smiled.

"Don't be shocked, it is a common sight." She spoke.

Both Vaan and Elara frowned in confusion,

"What does that mean?" Vaan questioned.

"The craze you see, it is a common sight inside the Agresia Academy, most students here are president's fanatics."

"That doesn't make any sense, I understand liking her, but to her fanatics…?"

"Well, you will understand once you meet her. Our Student President isn't just some normal girl, she is the most perfect girl I have ever seen in my entire life. The new students like you wouldn't understand what I am trying to say, however, once you spend some time here and get to know our president, you will realize why we respect and adore her so much."

Isabel answered and Vaan noticed the same crazed look on the woman's face as he saw in Vaelen's and everyone else's faces.

This made Vaan frown.

It wasn't just him, Elara, and other new students, even Astra and other guests had a similar reaction on their faces.

This sight was shocking. For a student to receive such enormous support from the other students… just how was it possible…?

Vaan and Elara glanced at each other, trying to figure out the reason behind this immense popularity, but then,

*Step* *Step* *Step*

Footsteps were heard.

The cheers and applause continued and finally, the main character made her entrance. Vaan glanced at the stage and the moment he did, he was dumbstruck.

The woman in front of him was beautiful. She wore the Academy Uniform just like the rest of the students, however, just one look at her and it was clear that she was far different from everyone else.

Her long blonde hair, her mystifying green eyes, the positive energy that she radiated, all of it was so different from the rest of the students that Vaan almost felt the urge to bow down.

*President's picture*

Declan was quick to step aside the moment the president walked onto the Stage, with a gentle smile on her face, the president nodded at Declan before she walked up to his place and,

"Ladies and Gentlemen, and our dear guests,

Excuse me for my rudeness, but I will be specifically pointing you out, Lady Astra, as someone who has heard about your achievements ever since I was a child, being able to stand in front of you like this gives me immense joy and pleasure,

On behalf of the entire Academy, I thank you for accepting our request to become the chief guest of this term's Induction."

The President spoke as she turned towards Astra and bowed her head gracefully, soon however, her expression changed, and,

"Ah, I apologize, as mentioned before, it is quite an overwhelming moment for me, so please excuse me for my manners,

Sir Declan Dawncrest, first, I would like to thank you for Hosting the Induction so brilliantly up until now, second, I should have done this sooner but, let me introduce myself to the new students,

My name is Selene Rainwarden, I am the Student Council President of our Prestigious Agresia Academy. As your senior in the Academy, I always look forward to helping you in any way I can and I work my hardest to make the Academy life as easy for you people as possible."

Selene introduced herself, her voice was soft, gentle, and elegant.

There was a smile plastered on her face and the aura she released was so… gentle that people couldn't help but wish to close their eyes and keep listening to her for the rest of their lives.

With how strong of a reaction Selene received, it seemed almost as if hypnotizing all these people together.

"Anyways, since Sir Declan already introduced me and revealed most of the important things that new students should know,

I wouldn't want to take more of your time and end my speech as quickly as possible.

I would start by welcoming all the new students to the Academy, I hope you have a wonderful time here. Do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions in your mind, I would be glad to answer them for you.

Your seniors, the old students of the Academy are all people full of compassion and kindness, you can bother them all you want and they will help you to the best of their abilities.

Right, seniors?"

Selene questioned with a smile on her face and,

"YYYEAAHHHH!!!!"

A loud cheer was heard.

Selene chuckled, in an instant, capturing the hearts of most males present inside the room.

"See? With how great seniors you people have, I promise you all that as long as you are willing to work hard, there is nothing you cannot achieve here in the Academy.

I am looking forward to you people working hard and eventually coming to me and becoming a part of the Student Council, I heard there are some amazing people amongst the new students who have already captured many eyes." Selene spoke as she glanced at Vaan and Elara and smiled,

"I hope the rest of the students keep up with their pace. You wouldn't want to be left behind before you even start, now would you?

I know all of you are people full of potential and I am looking forward to what you all will achieve once you utilize your full potential.

Alright, I believe I have already taken too much of your time with all my nonsense,

So without further ado, I would like to call the esteemed Headmaster of our Academy to come forward and say a few words.

I would also request the students to please listen to what the Headmaster says very carefully, his words are full of wisdom and it would be greatly beneficial for you to understand and apply that wisdom in your life.

Now, Headmaster, would you please…"

Selene spoke, her head slightly bowed and her smile never leaving her face.

And Vaan, who was observing this woman till now narrowed his eyes in doubt.

"Something's wrong."

He muttered.
