My System Academy

Eluard teleported back to the Pool of Revelations.

"Academy master.", the boys bowed in respect.

"Things are now ready. If you have any questions before we proceed, ask them now.", Eluard said.

The three remained silent.

Noticing that they didn't have any intentions to ask, "If there is none, follow me."

When they exited the room, they bumped into Emi and Olivia who were on their way back to their previous dormitory rooms.

"Academy master.", they bowed.

Emi asked excitedly, "Academy master, are they intending to enroll in this academy too? Will they be my senior brothers?"

The words 'senior brother' made the boys feel like they were old men in front of Emi.

'Little girl, we're just the same age or probably a few gaps in the way! There's no way we're your seniors!', they complained in their minds.

Eluard simply nodded and continued on his way.

"Hey, senior brothers! Nice to meet you! I'm Emi!"

The little girl's enthusiastic greeting put them in a conflicted state. What would they say in this situation? Greet in response? But Emi calling them senior brother hurt them in many ways.

They couldn't reprimand her either. The cold-looking girl beside her felt dangerous and they didn't want to mess with her.

Also, observing the room where they came from, these two girls should've already completed the enrollment process and were now students of the academy.

"Emi, you will know of them later. For now, proceed to back to your dormitory rooms."

While he was speaking, Eluard quickly navigated to the 'Students' tab and gave out a special task to Emi and Olivia.

The girls received a prompt on their system panel.

[ Special Task 1: Proceed back to your dormitory rooms using the map navigation in your system panel. ]

[ Rewards: Student uniform x1. ]

[ Note: Please prevent talking about the system near any people who are not a part of the Heavenly Magic Academy. ]

Olivia took Emi's hands and departed to the main hallway. Eluard was very pleased with Olivia's quick thinking.

As he led the boys to the Altar of Rites, Emi and Olivia conversed about the system panel they have received.

"Sister Olivia, why did you pull me out of there earlier? Is it because of that special task that the academy master has given to us?", Emi asked.

"Emi, we shouldn't talk about this… system in front of others who aren't students to the academy, okay?", Olivia reminded, "Do you still remember the third tenet?"

"The secrets of one's heart must remain to themselves, wasn't it?", Emi recited.

Olivia nodded, "Exactly, Emi. This system panel is the secret of the Heavenly Magic Academy. If we talk about it to others carelessly, we will be punished by the academy master so be careful, okay?!", patting Emi's head.

"Okay!", Emi nodded and finally understood what the third tenet meant.

Olivia then assisted Emi on how to navigate through the system panel. Although she could be considered a bit rustic in this part, she managed to have Emi use the map and navigate themselves to their own dormitory rooms.

Their system tabs consisted of General, Tasks, Student Profile, Items, Store, Pets, and Map. The first four tabs and Map were the only available tabs yet.

Looking at the map in front of her, their dormitory rooms were located on the western side of the 2nd floor. It was near their previous dormitory rooms yesterday and took them 15 minutes to arrive.

They then changed their clothes and returned to the main hallway. The uniforms resembled close to Eluard's robe with a high collar and the emblem of the Heavenly Magic Academy. It was a magic staff with a golden magic crystal at the top and two angelic wings in the background.

The robe also adapted its color based on the student's magical affinity. Since Olivia had an affinity with lightning, ice, and water, her uniform was colored navy-blue. On the other side, Emi's robe was colored yellow-green.

In the main hallway, Emi and Olivia saw the academy master standing alone. Noticing the arrival of the girls, Eluard gestured them to form a line in front of him.

A while later, the three boys emerged from the same direction with their own student uniforms as well. Lucan's robe was scarlet-colored, Jinmu's robe was sky-blue, while Solordo's robe was a mix of dark and gray.

"Congratulations on being enrolled to the Heavenly Magic Academy. As the first batch of students to be admitted here, you have a huge advantage over your competitors and the chance to become my direct disciple."

The five of them immediately piqued their interests. Their system panels suddenly prompted something to them.

[ Special Task 2: The Five Tenets ]

[ Heavenly Magic Academy's ideologies revolve around the five tenets introduced to you during your procession. The academy master has given you a task to comprehend the meaning behind each tenet and present your explanations on the first public lecture for the coming week. ]

[ Rewards: Becoming the academy master's direct disciple. Blue Magic Crystals x10. ]

[ Time Limit: 7 days ]

"I will be in seclusion for the following days. Make sure to use this opportunity to know each other.", Eluard waved his hands and teleported to his office. He was now ready to receive his reward for the first main task given to him by the system.

[ Main Task Achieved. Distributing rewards. ]

[ … ]

[ … ]

The series of ellipses on his system panel made Eluard anxious yet excited at the same time.

'No, Eluard! Don't get your hopes too high! Maybe this is just a trap!'

After waiting for a few seconds, the system's notification rang on his mind and he quickly looked up the rewards he had received.

[ You have received the Divine Nebular Magic Root (Divine), Magical Aptitude of 10, and Magical Affinity (Universal) ]

[ Congratulations host for achieving the first main task. You have also received an achievement 'Recruiter'. Continue to work hard. ]

Eluard wanted to shout at the top of his lungs after hearing the fact that he had received a divine magic root, 'System, you're the best!'

He then felt a strange crawling sensation on his head. It was tickling and refreshing at the same time. Eluard was savoring the feeling when he suddenly found himself floating in the vast space.

In the distance was a star undergoing supernova, blasting the planets into fragments and extending its explosion outward. The force of the explosion was so strong that he could feel space tearing apart even when he was light-years away.

After a long time, the chaos subsided. His consciousness also returned to his body.

He slumped on the floor, shivering in fear, 'Wha-what was that? It was too frightening!'

The mask of the magus calmed his mind. He then looked at his new profile.

[ Host Name: Eluard Kai ]

[ Age: 22 Years Old ]

[ Race: Human ]

[ Magic Power: N/A. ]

[ Magic Root: Divine Nebular Magic Root (Divine) ]

[ Magic Aptitude: 10/10 ]

[ Magic Affinity: Universal ]

[ Magic Spells: None. ]

[ Special Skill: Magical Deterrence, Magical Analysis (Eye of Fidelity) ]

[ Achievements: Recruiter ]

[ Divine Nebular Magic Root (Divine) ]

[ A magic root that shares the mysteriousness of nebulas found in the universe. It is still in its infancy stage and requires tremendous effort to cultivate and develop over time. Developing to the next stage will unlock new effects. ]

[ Additional Effect (under Infancy Stage): Magical Nebular Transmutation ]

[ You can alter elemental natures to any other element without restriction ]

[ Degradation Effect: Nebular Infancy Instability ]

[ Due to the universal aspect of your magic root and affinity, casting magic spells, conducting pill concoction, forming array formations, and similar magical-based activities have increased difficulty due to the unstable elemental nature of your mana. This can be alleviated by honing your mana control, increasing your magic power, learning more skills, numerous practicing, and strengthening the power of your mind. In addition, developing your magic root to the next stages will gradually stabilize your mana nature passively ]

[ Remarks: A good host in the making. ]

As he finished reading the entire prompt, Eluard sighed, 'It looks like I will really have to do much effort now, huh?'

Thankfully, he had the 3rd special task to indirectly help him in his hardships. While he accumulates the knowledge after reading and understanding, he could then use it for his magic cultivation process to speed it up and advance to the next stages.

His magic root and power were negligible at the start due to how difficult it would be to cast spells. However, he knew that if he tried hard enough and succeed in the end, the end results would be far too terrifying.

He imagined himself turning fire into water and vice versa, dumbfounding his enemies while defeating them in style, 'Shut up, idiot. You're not Dante.'

[Note: For those who do not know, look up for Dante from Devil May Cry]

Eluard shook his head and became determined to go back to the library and read more books.

'I should first focus on the basics. In this way, I can help myself and my students. Also, it seems like I have to prepare personal cultivation ideas for my students.'

Each of his students catered to a different problem and needs.

For example, Lucan's mana pool needs to be very huge before he could start casting spells. Even if he could train his control and power right now, he wouldn't last that long due to his magic root's specialty.

On the other hand, Solordo focused on both his chivalric will and magic cultivation. His cultivation progress was slower compared to the rest so Eluard could prioritize him the least.

'Alright, let's take it easy, Eluard. We have a lot of days to spare. I wonder how my students are doing now.'
