Chapter 102: 102. Current Goals.
Seeing how all the beautiful elves were smiling and chuckling behind their beloved prince, a dark shadow clouded the faces of all the seamen who were watching from afar.
All of them were hanging their heads in depression.
However, the aura of anger and jealousy could be seen oozing out of their body and they slowly raised their heads to glare at the prince and his harem of beautiful elves.
Currently, their faces were contorted into an ugly, comical expression while they talked to each other.
"Men?" A seaman called out to his comrade.
"Yes?" All the seamen answered in unison.
"Are you all seeing this?"
"Of course, we are."
"What do you think we should do about this?"
"Slice him in half," Everyone stated as though they had one mind.
"Splendid, and this means that from this day on, the elf prince is officially the number one enemy of the council of men."
"Agreed," Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and the beautiful sea girls who were sitting right beside the seamen couldn't help but shake their heads in disappointment at the odd behavior being displayed by their men.
The hall slowly became filled with noise as the number of students in the hall increased significantly.
The instructors and professors also entered the hall, followed by the headmistress and deputy headmistress.
Orion also noticed Evelyn walking right beside Elena and his lips curled up in a smile.
It had been three months since he last saw his two beautiful women, and they looked as stunning as always.
A few world leaders also came as well like the Lion King and the king of humans.
The moment everyone in the hall was seated, the entrance ceremony finally began, with Lucille Darkwing stepping forward to address the students.
"Welcome, students and young leaders of tomorrow, to the Union World Academy!!" Lucille announced.
She applied mana to her voice so that everyone in the hall would hear what she was saying clearly.
"Today, we gather as one, representing our kingdom's culture, races, and species as we stand together in our quest for knowledge, understanding, and, most importantly, world peace.
More than two decades ago, the world was ravaged by conflicts and division. The war left deep scars and many ashes, but from those ashes, we rose to be stronger and more resilient.
Our academy was born from the dream of a united future where leaders from all kingdoms could come together, learn from each other, and forge a brighter path.
As you begin your journey here, remember that you are not just a representative of your own kind, but ambassadors of hope and unity. You will learn from the best minds our world has to offer, and you will grow alongside your peers, who will become lifelong friends and allies to you.
Within these hallowed halls, we celebrate our differences and find strength in our diversity. We honor the dragons' fierce courage, the elves' noble pride, the seamens' knowledge, the humans' tenacity, the witches' wisdom, the beastmen's strength, and the demons' diversity.
Together, you are the bridge-builders, the peacemakers, and the innovators the world needs.
Let this day be the commencement of our journey towards shaping a world where unity triumphs over division and love conquers all."
Lucille completed her speech and everyone in the hall clapped their hands, but Lucille wasn't done yet.
She raised her hands, indicating for everyone to stop clapping so she could continue.
"I understand that some of you might think that the academy's ranking system is a bit unfair, but I can assure you that everyone will be given an equal chance to acquire the rank you believe that you deserve.
The academy will be introducing our merit point system, designed to encourage students throughout the semester.
You'll earn points based on
> Attendance and active participation in classes
> Respectful behavior towards teachers and peers
> Outstanding performance in club activities and competitions
> Volunteer work and contribution to the academy's community.
These merit points will be tracked and tallied, and by the end of the semester, the top seven students with the most points will be appointed as members of our inaugural student council.
The privileges that come with being a student council member will be discussed with everyone in the future."
Hearing this, the hall became filled with loud murmurs.
So many students weren't satisfied with their rankings in the academy, but now that they had a clear goal to aim for, everyone became interested in being among the top seven because only students of these rankings would be given the privilege of becoming student council members.
With that out of the way, Lucille uttered the last piece of information she wanted the students to know.
"The academy is a three-year program but students will be allowed to graduate as early as their first year if the academy thinks they're ready."
Hearing this, a huge smile appeared on Orion's face.
Ever since Orion became a rank ten mage, he had been having second doubts about attending the academy, but now that he knew he could leave the academy immediately after his first year, Orion couldn't wait to graduate from the academy as soon as possible.
Once he graduated from the academy, Orion intended to spend time with his mother and aunt like never before.
He was confident that he would be doing a lot of naughty things with them every single day once he graduated from the academy.
However, for now, he would only be able to be intimate with them on a few occasions because of how busy both of them were.
Orion swiftly turned his gaze towards his beautiful mother and aunt who didn't bother looking in Orion's direction.
He had been subtly watching them since Lucille began her speech and he noticed that both Evelyn and Elena kept their gaze on Lucille as though what she was saying was really of interest to them.
Seeing that his mother and aunt weren't interested in looking at him, Orion grinned even more to himself.
'It seems Mom and Aunt Elena are still mad at me.'
