Chapter 549: Dark Demon’s Choice (8k)
Having only half the classes means there’s more than half the homework and tasks, isn’t that great?
Of course it is!
As Dark listened to Diana, he observed his classmates whom he hadn’t seen in a while.
The growth rate of humans, especially during their teenage years, is incredibly rapid.
The difference between those who strive and those who do not will be clearly evident.
After three months of vacation, most of the students had undergone significant changes.
Those who remained stagnant might struggle greatly in their future studies.
…
“Ring ring!”
Professor Sarah Shylph entered the classroom as the bell rang, and the previously noisy students suddenly fell silent. The classroom was filled with only the sound of her footsteps.
She walked up to the podium and said to the students below, “Hello everyone, it seems like we’ve known each other for over a year now. This year, I will still be responsible for your Summoning Spell classes. Now, let’s start roll call…”
…
“Emma Maltis.”
“Here!”
…
“Dark Demon.”
“Here!”
…
“Diana Gretbail.”
“Here!”
…
When the roll call ended, Professor Shylph methodically went through the important matters to note at the beginning of the semester.
As the vice principal of Saint Maryann Academy, she had been overseeing the coordination role for the second year, similar to a class dean. Such matters were always handled by her.
She first explained the school rules and then mentioned the Academy Cup again.
At the end of last academic year, the Mana Academy successfully broke the monopoly of the Noble Academy and won the Academy Cup.
The first-year students of the Mana Academy at the time were also fortunate enough to get the chance to make a wish at the Holy Grail.
They remembered the phrase “the greedy have nothing,” and most of them gained something from it.
This made the students from the other three houses envious.
Now that Professor Shylph brought it up again, the atmosphere in the room was electrifying.
Especially for the students from the Noble Academy and Knight Academy; their gazes towards the Mana Academy were filled with combativeness.
First-year students could not participate in the Academy Cup competition and could only watch the seniors fight their hardest.
But now they are second-year students!
Whether it’s the dungeon battle or the mana duel, these competitions are conducted in tiers. They will have the advantage of taking control of victory!
Professor Shylph observed the students’ reactions and nodded approvingly.
The purpose of setting up the Academy Cup was to stimulate the students’ competitive spirit, and it was clearly achieved now.
She then slowed her tone and began explaining one of the two most important contents of today’s lesson — “elective course selection.”
“Starting from the second year, every student must choose one to two elective courses to study. This is very important for your final assessment. The more elective courses you take, the higher your total score will be.”
“If you can complete one elective course in advance during the first semester and receive approval from the instructor, you can select another elective course in the second semester.”
“I will distribute the complete table of elective course names, content, and conditions next. If you cannot decide, you can also discuss with me.”
“You need to make a decision before this Friday. The latest submission deadline is 6 PM on Friday. I will be waiting in my office.”
“Additionally, I need to remind you that the maximum number of students per elective course is thirty, and the minimum is ten.”
“If a course is too popular, the professors might open another section with the same content, but it’s not guaranteed. So, after you’ve decided, submit your choices as soon as possible.”
“If the final number of applicants for an elective course is less than ten, it might be dissolved, and the applicants will need to choose another course.”
“In short, the overall process is roughly like this. I hope you will consider your choices thoroughly.”
After saying this, Professor Shylph distributed the tables and added:
“Besides considering the popularity or lack thereof, when choosing elective courses, you should choose what suits you best, not just what is the most popular!”
…
Dark quickly scanned the table after receiving it and noticed some adjustments compared to the one he had. However, Professor Kazel’s “Alchemy Course” and Professor Metia’s “Astrology Course” remained unchanged.
He thought for a moment and wrote down the names of these two courses directly on the application form.
The “Astrology Course” might not be very popular due to the need for divination talent.
However, Professor Kazel has always had good reviews, and he is one of the few remaining alchemy masters in the present era. His “Alchemy Course” would likely be instantly full.
Given the limit of thirty people, he needed to sign up as soon as possible.
Also, Diana’s chosen “Knighthood Class” is a major hit, very popular among the students of the Knight Academy.
On the other hand, the “Transformation Class” is a high-bar course.
Considering the possibility of being rejected if the conditions are not met after signing up, few would directly choose this course.
Moreover, the Transformation Class has been offered every year, so most of the upperclassmen who were interested would have already taken it.
Dark actually wanted to take the Transformation Class too, but it was just a backup option.
If he couldn’t get into Professor Kazel’s Alchemy Course, he would settle for the Transformation Class instead.
As for Rose, she should be able to get into the “Astrology Course,” but the other medical course she planned to take might be risky.
Although Sister Carrian’s moral reputation wasn’t great, everyone at Saint Maryann Academy trusted her medical skills.
This year, she was opening an elective course for the first time, and from second to sixth year, there would be many students vying to sign up.
Anyone interested in medicine would not miss Sister Carrian’s medical course!
“Have you made up your mind?”
After completing his application form, Dark quietly nudged Rose in front of him.
Rose jumped slightly and whispered, “Still the Astrology Course and the Medical Course.”
“What about you?” Dark turned to Diana and asked.
Diana blinked and said, “Of course, the Knighthood Class and the Transformation Class.”
“Alright.” Dark responded, “Then let’s submit our forms after this class ends.”
The advantage of getting the elective course form early became apparent.
Few people could decisively determine their elective courses without discussing with others in such a short time.
After making his decision, Dark couldn’t help but think of Eve and Irina.
“I wonder if they’ve chosen yet?”
…
Professor Shylph gave the young magicians of the second year about ten minutes to look at the tables, then moved on to the other key content of the day.
“Besides elective courses, you also need to determine which club to join this week.”
“The academy does not mandate joining a club, but club activities are an indispensable part of your life here.”
“Both interpersonal relationships and club resources can bring additional benefits.”
“My personal advice is to join a club that interests you as a means to expand your capabilities.”
“The collective recruitment for clubs starts on Friday and ends on Sunday.”
“Additionally, the recruitment window for the Dueling Club will be open to you. The first recruitment this term will be held this Friday afternoon and will continue for three weeks.”
“For those who haven’t joined the Dueling Club yet, you need to prepare as soon as possible!”
…
Although Professor Shylph emphasized the importance of joining a club, she did not provide much information about the clubs themselves.
As she said, she hoped students would choose based on interest rather than blindly joining large clubs.
The remaining class time was spent answering students’ questions and Professor Shylph’s responses, and before they knew it, it was time to leave.
“Ring ring.”
After answering the last question, Professor Shylph reminded the young magicians to submit their elective course applications as soon as possible and prepared to leave the classroom.
But just as she stepped down from the podium, Emma Maltis in the front row stopped her.
“Professor Shylph.”
The little girl with fluffy brown hair politely called out and handed over her application form.
Professor Shylph glanced at the form and was surprised, “Did you choose so quickly?”
Emma smiled slightly, “Yes, Professor. It wasn’t a difficult choice.”
“Let me see.” Professor Shylph took the form and noticed clearly written “Alchemy Course” and “Astrology Course.”
She asked, “Is this your choice? There’s no opportunity to change once it’s rejected.”
Emma confidently replied, “That’s right.”
“Alright then.” Professor Shylph took the form.
Put away.
Then she gave up on the idea of leaving the classroom directly and returned to the podium, placing the textbook back on the table.
Following that, Sarah Swati also ascended to the podium, smiling as she handed Professor Shylph her application form.
This female student from the Mana Academy, with her tanned skin, seemed to have gained a mysterious aura after the three-month holiday.
Professor Shylph examined her application carefully and frowned slightly: “Also ‘Alchemy Class’ and ‘Astrology Class’?”
“Yes, Professor,” Sarah smiled. “I wish to learn more about ancient alchemy.”
Then she turned to look at Emma and then said, “Little Emma also chose ‘Alchemy Class’ and ‘Astrology Class’?”
Professor Shylph nodded, “There’s no need to hide this.”
Sarah continued, “As I suspected. ‘Alchemy Class’ is the source of mana technology, so it’s bound to be popular. And since she has divination talent like me, Professor Metia’s ‘Astrology Class’ is a good choice.”
After saying that, she stepped back, allowing Dark to approach Professor Shylph.
Dark hadn’t expected to be preempted.
And when he heard their conversation, he felt a bit strange.
When he submitted his own application form, Professor Shylph couldn’t help but feel helpless.
Three people had chosen both ‘Alchemy Class’ and ‘Astrology Class’.
Moreover, while ‘Alchemy Class’ was unique, there were three teachers for ‘Astrology Class’, yet all three chose Professor Metia’s class.
Before she could say more, Eudora ran over and handed in her application form.
She looked at the form, which also listed ‘Alchemy Class’ and ‘Astrology Class,’ and couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Only when Rose and Diana submitted their forms did the sense of helplessness slightly ease.
At least Rose and Diana had selected other elective courses.
…
The swift actions of Dark and the others surprised many young magus students.
But those who acted decisively were few. Although Dulong Teddy wanted to follow Dark, he ultimately held back rationally.
Dulong didn’t have divination talent, but his close friend Pistons did.
In Professor Metia’s selection of the ‘Nine Stars’ last semester, Pistons was one of them.
Additionally, Sarah, Emma, Eudora, and Rose all had divination talent.
Besides them, there were Robert, Heidi (Sara’s close friend), another student from the Fool’s Academy, and Lil’Eevee.
If nothing went wrong, these nine would sign up for Professor Metia’s ‘Astrology Class.’
With these nine students, Professor Metia’s ‘Astrology Class’ only needed one more person to be ready to start.
Robert had lost his vampiric possession by Vlad, so it was unknown if he still had divination talent.
Even Dark was just an avatar of Lil’Eevee; the real person attending the class was Lil’Eevee herself.
…
The break between the first and second classes was only thirty minutes.
Professor Shylph stayed in the classroom for an additional ten minutes.
Apart from Dark and the others, a few others quickly submitted their applications.
However, Wit and Robert, Dulong and Pistons, were still hesitating.
Professor Shylph stood up at the right time and said, “Alright, those who want to submit their applications can directly bring them to my office. Even if I’m not there, someone will be inside.”
After saying that, she left the classroom without looking back.
The tense atmosphere in the classroom finally eased.
Robert Broheim immediately exclaimed, “Seriously, how can you decide in such a short time? Wit, have you made up your mind?”
Wit Gold looked troubled, “Aside from ‘Knighthood Class,’ I haven’t decided what else to study. What about you?”
Robert sighed, “I want to study ‘Knighthood Class,’ and another subject is ‘Astrology Class’… but I haven’t decided yet. Do you think I really have divination talent?”
Wit frowned in thought, “Shouldn’t you? Didn’t you ‘see’ something?”
Robert covered his head, “But after thinking it through, I don’t think that’s what I saw. And in astronomy class, I was confused. Is ‘Astrology Class’ really suitable for me?”
Wit patted his increasingly muscular arm and said, “Perhaps ‘Astrology Class’ isn’t suitable for you. Why not consult Professor Metia before making a decision?”
“Sure!” Robert perked up, “I can’t choose a subject I won’t understand.”
“Speaking of which…” Wit suddenly said after ending Robert’s topic, “It seems Dark and Emma both chose ‘Alchemy Class’ and ‘Astrology Class’?”
Robert didn’t blink, “Dark probably chose ‘Astrology Class’ for his golem. As for ‘Alchemy Class’… I struggled with ‘Mana Theory,’ so I dare not choose randomly.”
But after a brief pause, Wit said, “I want to choose ‘Alchemy Class.’ What do you think?”
…
The second class of the new term was Professor Kazel’s ‘Mana Theory.’
Arriving two minutes early, Professor Kazel found himself becoming quite popular, with many students staring at him as soon as he entered.
He suddenly remembered this when someone came up to ask him questions.
He dismissed the student and stood up with his wand.
“Ding-dong—”
The bell interrupted everyone’s thoughts.
Professor Kazel waited until the bell stopped before leaning on the podium and saying, “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Regarding the elective course I plan to offer—’Alchemy Class’—as the name suggests, it’s a course teaching alchemy knowledge.”
“Due to various reasons, you may develop extra interest in alchemy. But in reality, alchemy is merely an outdated technology being phased out.”
“I hope you all understand clearly. The mana technology we’re learning is built upon the foundation of alchemy, surpassing typical alchemy!”
“If you believe learning alchemy will significantly improve your mana technology, you might be disappointed.”
“It won’t greatly enhance your mana technology but will give you a deeper understanding of its origins.”
“So those hoping to improve their mana technology by choosing ‘Alchemy Class’ should think carefully!”
…
Professor Kazel’s speech was discouraging.
But his charisma made people even more interested in ‘Alchemy Class.’
Alchemy adheres to strict principles of equivalent exchange, far surpassed by mana technology in both breadth and depth.
Learning alchemy is like studying horseback riding in modern times—lacking practical significance.
Unless students have other purposes for studying alchemy.
For example, Sarah Swati wanted to learn more about ancient alchemy to fill her knowledge gaps.
Emma Maltis aimed to deepen her research on ancient alchemy to unravel the secrets of the ‘Golden King.’
The frescoes they discovered together in the secret passage had reached a bottleneck.
As for Dark Demon…
He simply wanted to learn how to make some alchemical tools.
…
In reality, most students didn’t think too clearly when choosing elective courses.
They mostly thought, “This looks interesting,” “I like this,” or “This might help me,” and then chose it.
If the professor teaching the elective was someone they liked, that sealed the deal.
Thus, many second-year students included ‘Alchemy Class’ among their two elective choices.
This situation lasted until the end of the potion class in the afternoon, when news spread that ‘Alchemy Class’ was full.
Thirty students was too few for the entire academy.
In fact, ‘Alchemy Class’ was already full by noon.
When the potion class ended, some applications were rejected, forcing them to choose again.
Only a handful of second-year students successfully enrolled in ‘Alchemy Class’!
…
A similar situation occurred with ‘Knighthood Class.’
Students from the Knight Academy were unusually enthusiastic about knighthood training.
Almost every student from the Knight Academy wanted to take ‘Knighthood Class’ as an elective.
This led to several applications being submitted by students from the Knight Academy.
All the courses were labeled as “Knighthood Class” and “Alchemy Class.”
The most typical case was naturally Wit Gold.
To accompany Robert to consult with Professor Metia, he submitted his application a bit late, only registering for one “Knighthood Class,” while his application for “Alchemy Class” was rejected.
With the loss of the “Alchemy Class” qualification, Wit gritted his teeth and simply chose another elective course that Robert had taken outside of “Knighthood Class”—”Transformation Class!”
After all, “Transformation Class” was also offered by their professor—Pavar Jones, which naturally made them inclined towards it.
Moreover, if they could transform into beasts like lions or tigers at critical moments…
It would significantly increase the safety of the magus’s physical body.
Especially when venturing into the dungeon, it could help the magus escape many dangers.
However, the threshold for “Transformation Class” was high, and Robert’s application this time was very likely to be rejected as well.
…
After finishing three classes on Monday, Dark brought the golems to the Spiral Bell Tower to clean up the clubroom.
He considered the entire tenth floor as a place for club activities and spent a lot of time cleaning it until it was spotless.
Dust accumulated over the years mixed with sewage was flushed down the drain.
After attempting to spread “Paradise,” the air in the clubroom became fresh and fragrant due to the healing flowers.
The next classroom renovation could only wait until Traveler’s Street officially opened, where custom wall panels, furniture, and other items could be made, then done personally.
Dark, dragging his tired body, came back to Claire’s dormitory again to express concern about the elective class situation of the twin sisters.
However, Eve and Irina had already finalized their elective plan yesterday and submitted it directly with Claire’s help, and it had been approved long ago.
In comparison, Dark himself was the one being cared for.
