Chapter 30: Enrollment at the Academy (1)
Elysia walked to the area of ??the magic academy named 'Deterry Academy of Magic' after passing through the vast aristocratic area. A large area like an international university consisting of many buildings arranged like a small town welcomed her after she passed the academy gate.
Deterry Academy of Magic is a continental class academy formed by the first Emperor of Aeddoterra Kingdom and the academy is named after him.
This academy is also the only continent class academy in the Human Continent located in the capital city of this kingdom and also directly adjacent to the royal castle.
Vanessa who was in the arms of Elysia looked curiously at the academy where talented human beings honed their abilities and gained their knowledge.
Although she does not want to admit it, she knows that the human race is one of the races with the highest potential besides their average lifespan which is longer than her race.
'Sister Elena, this place is amazing...' Elysia opened the conversation with Elena in her mind that was always connected to her.
'Uuu... You only remember me now?' Elena pretended to sulk.
'Emm... Please forgive me, I was so afraid of being in the crowd earlier.' Elysia can only apologize.
'Well, you can ignore the people who are looking at you now...' Elena said while looking at the people who were looking at Elysia who kept walking to the office building.
'That's different, Sister Elena. I can ignore them but it's still hard for me to ignore the crowd.' Elysia denied the assumption because of her condition.
'Hmm... Then you should talk to me more often. You must remember, you will no longer feel alone under any circumstances. I will always be there with you.' Elena said it sincerely.
This is the first step Elena can take to heal the wounds that Elysia experienced that has made her traumatized. Although Elysia has resisted her fears all this time by herself with strong beliefs, she still cannot cure everything but only uses her alternative path.
'Un, I'll remember that. Thank you very much, Sister Elena.' Elysia knew what Elena wanted to say and was very grateful for her understanding and attention.
'Don't be shy and too formal for me. But, fufu... You seem to be engrossed in being the model of a girl named Rosa earlier.' Elena changed their topic.
'Yes, Miss Rosa is so kind. I only hoped for discounts with that little help to save expenses, but she gave me all these pretty clothes as a gift of gratitude.' Elysia smiled warmly remembering Rosa who seemed to know of her difficulties.
She did not realize that her smile this time was so charming that even two men who were walking collided because they were looking at her.
Elena only giggled a little because she knew what Rosa meant by 'model' was different from what Elysia thought, but Elena didn't want to tell Elysia and took this as punishment for forgetting her earlier.
She could also consider this a lesson for Elysia in this new world to be more careful in making decisions.
'What is so funny?' Elysia asked in confusion.
'Fufu... It's nothing. If based on the map, it is the office building that we are going to. Register quickly and we can have fun exploring the capital city! ' Elena cheered, she wants to play in the capital city immediately.
'Sure... Sure.' Elysia immediately rushed to the building and tried to find a place for registration which turned out to be in the front hall which also worked as a lobby.
She approached the registration room and saw that there were two rooms for that with two different signboards, one was aristocracy and the other was public. Elysia did not think too much because she was certainly not an aristocracy and entered the appropriate room.
Then in a public room without a door, she saw a special room with a place like a counter guarded by a middle-aged man. Strangely, there are no other people who are currently registering.
"Excuse me." Elysia greeted the middle-aged man who was relaxing at a table made like a counter.
The middle-aged man who was greeted immediately opened his eyes and looked towards Elysia. He examined from above and below the features of the girl before him rather thoroughly, especially in the face and chest.
"What can I do for you, young lady?" The man asked while licking his lips before rubbing his chin.
Elysia felt uncomfortable with this suspicious man. But in this room, there was only this middle-aged man who could help her with registration. Because of this, she gathered up the little courage she had and went on with it.
"I want to enroll in this academy, what do I need to do?"
"Huh? Well, we are indeed open to the public. But aren't you clearly an aristocrat? If you want to register, you're in the wrong room. You can go to the next room, young lady." The old man asked in confusion.
"No, I am indeed an ordinary person, I was right in this room." Elysia insisted.
"Well, if you say that. Well then, what's your name, young lady?" The man did not understand what this aristocrat wanted to play, but he only went along with the plot and obeyed her. He pulled out a form paper from his desk and a pen to write.
"I am Elysia Avery." She introduces her name, knowing that she is being registered.
The man rolled his eyes because his guess was correct, only the aristocrat who had the privilege of having a first and last name. Even though this was the first time he had heard of Avery as a last name, he continued and wrote her name on the form as if he didn't really care.
Then basic questions such as age, place of origin, etc. were asked and written with the answers given by Elysia. In addition to the name, age, and gender she answers with an answer that is rather reasonable because she does not have a real origin in this world.
"Alright, young lady. Your form has been completed, now I will test your talent with an elemental crystal, follow me." The man moved from there and entered the special room behind him.
Elysia strengthened herself and entered the room to follow the man while hugging Vanessa rather tightly.
'Master! You are strangling me.' Vanessa gave a breathless exclamation as she felt suffocated.
'Ah? Uh, I'm sorry. I was just nervous and accidentally hugged you tightly.' Elysia apologized and loosened her arms then stroked Vanessa's fur gently.
'Purr...' Vanessa returned to the obedient cat and began purring.
In that room, there were only two of them and a clear white crystal called the elemental crystal. The door behind her that opened suddenly closed which made Elysia a little more nervous considering that now there was only herself and this suspicious man.
"Young lady, now try to use a magic element that you can use on this elemental crystal." The man asked with sleepy eyes that did not expect much from her.
"Um, alright."
Elysia then touched the elemental crystal with one hand and tried to use the magic element she knew beforehand which started from the elements of fire, lightning, wind, earth, and so on which made the elemental crystal change color following the element she was using.
