Author’s note: before the end of the week we reached 45 stones, so I’m going to send this bonus chapter and as I said today we won’t have a chapter.
Kayden understood that Locke had gone through some traumatic events in his life, as this was the only option for such a huge change in personality in a few years. Kayden decided to leave this matter alone for now.
"I understand, find a room and look for me when you can manipulate the mana to that point," Kayden said goodbye to the boy, even though he was a prince he would not receive any different treatment from Kayden.
He didn’t care one bit about the origins of his subjects, as long as they fulfilled their side of the bargain he was fine with whatever their backgrounds were. Afterward, the boy talked a little with Heimer and the Britten family.
"Find decent servants to look after this mansion, Kayden. It forces them to sign contracts of loyalty and silence." Sarah was the first to raise this issue with Kayden. "I sent a number to your phone for you to negotiate hiring employees."
The boy promised that he would look into this after the first few days of school had passed, he still had a lot to do and he didn’t know how difficult the classes would be. A few hours later, everyone said goodbye, leaving Kayden alone in the mansion.
Sol Academy had different buildings for each subject. At the moment, the ten thousand freshmen were sitting in one of the huge stadiums spread across the academy, it was 9 a.m. and everyone was waiting for the dean.
Kayden was with Linus and Isaac, his 15 subjects were also sitting around him. The boy didn’t ask to be called master or anything like that, these formalities had no value in his eyes.
"Good morning everyone", Leonardo descended from the heavens riding his dragon. When he landed, he continued his sentence: "I hope everyone has managed as best they can during this month."
All students were located within the central area of the academy in different dormitories that varied in their degrees of luxury. Right now, no one has merit points, so the first month was almost like a credit card purchase.
The problem was that only nobles and people who performed excellently in the three tests were able to negotiate to stay in the most luxurious spots, while the majority only stayed in ordinary rooms in generic hotels.
It is worth mentioning that even an ordinary room was infinitely more luxurious than any room outside the academy. First, the space of any accommodation reached more than 20 square meters. Second, it was fully furnished with the finest furniture.
’The poorest rich man is still richer than the richest poor man,’ Kayden thought when he saw the advertisements for the apartments offered by the academy.
"The freshmen will be divided into 100 rooms with 100 students. At the moment, we will not have a classification among you, but every six months a general test is carried out and the classes with the best performance are listed."
The information the dean was presenting was completely new to everyone as this information had been protected from leakage by spiritual contracts since the college entrance test.
"First, form groups with your friends using the gym app." Along with the dean’s sentence, a notification arrived on everyone’s cell phone, even those who were in silent mode.
The next few minutes were spent with students arguing with their friends about how many people to put in the group. Most had time to meet other people during this 1-month break without classes.
"Send a request to me." Kayden organized his group quickly, with him totaling 18 people.
"Kayden! Let me join your group!"
"Me too! My father is a duke!"
"My father is a marquis, but I am very strong, invite me too!"
When people saw that the boy was organizing his group, they rushed to join. After the championship, Kayden had a new nickname: "future wizard god".
"I am no longer accepting participants," Kayden said dryly and began to ignore the thousands of orders popping up on his phone. The boy had no desire to introduce more people to his circle.
"Now you will be organized into rooms with your respective groups," Leonardo explained when he saw that the majority had already created their circles. "Each room has a leader who can be challenged by position. Only the strongest can lead. The leader has the right to expel people from the class and call others in, so make an effort not to be marginalized."
Kayden was surprised for a few seconds and then nodded in understanding, it was a lot of power for just one person to control, but that should be exactly the goal, as this would make everyone fight for this position tooth and nail.
"The class receives several merit points monthly depending on their classification, in addition, the best placed have preference for trips and activities exclusive to the college"
It seemed that competition was encouraged throughout the college structure.
"You can now see your classes and the leader is the person who performed best in the admission test, anyone can challenge him in a fight for the position, losers cannot fight the same person for a year"
As soon as the dean spoke, everyone went to check their classmates on their cell phones, Kayden didn’t particularly look, he already knew he would be the leader and probably wouldn’t know anyone in the room.
"you can choose which classes you want to take through the app, at the moment they are all free, but after the first year, they will have different merit point costs" Kayden went to see the new tab, and classes that appeared on the app with the dean’s speech.
