Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer



[Eon's POV: ]

-Shwiiiiiiiiiiish…

-Tap.

"Good morning children."

[[ "Sir Jezebel. Quite unexpected but still, it would be fun with this person as our homeroom teacher." ]] I smiled while looking at him from our very last seat.

[[ "He's a vampire, right? Aren't you seeing one for the first time? No surprise?" ]] Rein asked while looking at me and I shook my head.

[[ "Nope. But yeah, they certainly have a cool fashion style. I like him for that much." ]]

My answer would be quite unexpected from a general perspective as even the nobles and royals in this class were surprised to see someone like him for the first time.

Vampires are a rare race after all. There were only six major families of them known in this world. And not much surprisingly, the Velorina family he belonged to was one of those six major families who were some of the oldest families in this world.

Probably as old as the empire and unlike the humans, these near-immortal beings still have their founders, the so-called <Progenitors>, among them. And they are some of the oldest and most powerful beings that hold godly powers.

Even the headmaster would have to listen to them in certain cases and they possess powers above the simple (Origin grandmasters) so they for one don't interact with the outside world and live in seclusion, and second, hold wealth comparable to mom and me combined so they have no interest in materialistic things.

And that wasn't all either. Their special blood magic was something that only their kind could use and no, in this world, vampires weren't some bloodthirsty creatures that hunted young virgin girls and drank their blood.

In this world, yes they drank the blood of the other beings, but as the [Law] of their kind, they could only drink the blood of either any dead being or any other being with their consent, or else, if they try to do so forcefully, they would face the wreath of their entire kind and the world.

So, traditionally, vampires only drank the blood of their true partners or the beasts that they hunt. 

But that was something many storybooks might have already talked about. And that was pretty much it, aside from some interesting facts about them that we will see with time. 

And they were people too, with far more intelligence than the normal people so every vampire was a special individual and I wanted one such person in our Lightshade too so that was that, but our class teacher was also a famous person who has been affiliated with the academy for a few hundred years now.

"I'm Jezebel Ivy Aethan Velorina, your class teacher and the one that will endure you all dumb nuisances for the next three years."

He landed on the ground as he said that and looked at everyone with his shining blood-red eyes.

"Hmmm…"

She looked around, starting from the closest seats at the very front, and went up, looking at each one of us in the eyes and as soon as his ferocious-looking eyes met ours, the children must have felt a strange chill run down their spine, so they were stunned.

"Hmmmm…"

He was looking around and many students were either stunned or surprised by his gaze. But there sure also those that didn't feel anything from his gaze.

And he looked at those people a little more than others, trying to analyze whatever he can.

And when it came to Rein, me, and the house captain of the [True dragon], the person that beat Rein's score during our entrance exam, the strangely smart and strong student council member, and the one that used others too well to ignore, the class teacher Sir Jezebel blinked his eyes, showing a visible spark of surprise on his pale face.

And the three of us weren't the only ones to gain his attention like that. There were a few more but I didn't have much information on many of them for now, so I didn't pay attention to this little detail.

"Ok, at least not everyone is a young child or dumb nuisance."

-Tap-pat.

"Hmmm. Alright. Let's take attendance and do brief intros first. There are technically a total of 333 students in my class, quite a lovely number, and there are 303 present, quite a lovely number again."

-Tap.

He moved behind his desk after saying that and if someone didn't have good eyesight, they would definitely miss his subtle satisfaction with his class, and would only see the ever-stoic expression on his face that would seem even more chilly to them.

But he was a cool person from my perspective. And If Alf was in this class, he would have been overjoyed as this person, this vampire teacher of ours, was one of his ideals. Someone he respected as much as he respected us.

"'Key, then I will start with myself and then call your names so please stand up and say three to twelve words. Don't make it something too long and don't just sit down with a simple hello. I want to know what kind of bunch I am in charge of too."

He looked around the class again, blinked thrice, took out a diary from his storage space, and cleared his throat.

"Ahem. Ok, so, I'm Jezebel but you can call me Sir Jez. I'm a few hundred years old so I would like it if you treat me as such or there's no need to attend your homerooms.

I specialize in (True magic), something you all must have heard about. And for those who don't know what it is, don't worry, you will know during your time here.

I will be taking your compulsory 'Understanding of Mana' class this year and your new schedules must already be available on the forums so do check as soon as our class ends.

Aside from that, I'm a (tier-9) mage, a [Rank-3] swordsman, a Master alchemist, a Master gardener, and a <SS> rank adventurer.

And those are mostly things that I like, just like how I really like teaching.

And even if you all might be dumb, young, immature, and foolish, at least you are my students now, and I will have to deal with you even while enduring the many headaches that I'll have."

[[ "Hey… is he cussing at us or genuinely pitying himself?" ]] Rein asked and to her question that I was expecting from the moment he walked in, I answered while patting her hand.

[[ "Both ma'am. He actually likes teaching but he absolutely gets annoyed when he has to start things from scratch or teach someone from the ground up.

That's the reason his super complicated class 'True magic emphasis' is a (High) grade class and not a (Superior) grade one where he would have to start from the basic and then go up to the higher levels." ]]

He was a unique character but from what I can tell, even with that chilly air around him, with those blood-red eyes being too intimidating to meet, and his two long vampire teeth, he was a good person.

And his classes were also going to be quite interesting from what I think.

"Alright so introduce yourself when I call your names," he instructed and opened the dairy in his hand, and at the same time, snapped his finger.

-Snap.

-Ooooooooooong.

[[ "Eon! Eon!!" ]]

[[ "Yup. Blood magic, and specifically, the true magic cast with his inherent blood magic.

And not just that, this is not summoning magic but animation magic of the Illusion series!" ]]

It was amazing to see those three bats just appear out of nowhere after his snap and the three bats naturally looked cute in her eyes so she was excited to see them, and I was excited to see that magic that he used only to have better control over this room with his cute familiars that had scared some of the students at their arrival.

"Eryndor." He called out the first name and a girl in some pretty clothing from our left side stood up, bowed to him, and spoke up in a loud voice that rang in the room.

"Hello, sir and everyone! I'm Eryndor R. Saltic from the Calito kingdom. I'm Count Saltic's second daughter and a (tier-1) wind mage.

I like magic and sweet things!"

She bowed again and sat down with a beet-red face, embarrassed by the things she herself said.

"Good start, Miss Eryndor. And thanks to your good introduction, I got a good idea."

-Snap!

"I believe everyone has seen something like this or knows what this is right?" He asked while holding a big crystal ball in his hand that though looked big and heavy, was nothing more than a simple glass ball in his hand.

And yes, we knew what that was.

[[ "Can't he just check elemental affinities with his detection magic or skills? Why use an artifact to do something simple like that?" ]] Rein asked with a curious voice as we looked at the big glass ball like everyone else and I answered her in a pretty certain voice.

[[ "First of all, that artifact is for more than six primary elements, and second of all, he wants to know more about us and the ones like us." ]]

"Alright so, what do you all know about Mana?"

Now, there was a curious look on his face as he licked his canines, and his simple-sounding question… was actually far deeper depending on how much one knew about the energy.

'And the subtle smile on his face and the way he licked his teeth surely meant he was expecting more than just a simple answer…'
