"Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed Professors, and incoming students of Agresia Academy, I am Declan Dawncrest, a 4 Star Swordsman, and the strongest Student in the Academy. As the undeniable pinnacle of skill and strength, it is my pleasure to provide you with a glimpse into the unrivaled legacy and prestige of Agresia Academy, a bastion of greatness in which you now have the privilege of being inducted.

But before we begin, please put your hands together for our Guests,

Lord Williams Haze, from the Haze Family.

Lady Elowen Frostbane, from the Frostbane Family.

Lady Morgana Darkspell from the Darkspell Family.

Lord Alaric Brightwood, from the Brightwood Family.

And then our Chief Guest, the person you have all been looking forward to seeing, a pleasant surprise even for me, as the Host of today's event,

Ladies and Gentlemen, please put your hands together for one of the Strongest Mages in the world, the Head of the Esteemed Vesta Family, Lady Astra Elysia Vesta."

Declan introduced and in a moment, the auditorium which was silent with students being forced to clap for the so-called 'guests', suddenly erupted in loud cheers and claps.

"…"

"…"

"…"

The other guests stared at the crown with deadpan looks on their faces.

The difference in treatment was disheartening. However, the moment they realized that they would be sitting near Astra, their expressions brightened up as well.

That was simply how high Astra's status was.

On the other hand, Declan was obviously not very impressed by Astra's presence, after all, no matter what position they were currently in, in the end, the Dawncrest and the Vesta Families were still enemies.

He couldn't let Astra steal the show with just her mere presence.

"Here at Agresia Academy, we do not merely abide by mediocrity; we exalt in the pursuit of absolute mastery. As the strongest student of this esteemed institution, I assure you that the standard of greatness is set impossibly high, for it is only by reaching for the stars that we may touch the heavens. The blood, sweat, and unwavering dedication that infuse these corridors have produced countless legends, and it is now your turn to inscribe your name upon the annals of glory.

Every corner of this esteemed academy resonates with the echoes of ancient wisdom and the relentless drive for excellence. From the illustrious training grounds to the sprawling libraries that house tomes of unparalleled knowledge, you will find that every challenge is a stepping stone toward unparalleled greatness.

As you walk these hallowed halls, remember that you are now bearers of the Agresian standard, and it is your solemn duty to uphold the prestige and honor of this institution. Embrace the rigors of training, harness the spirit of resilience, and let your ambition soar to unprecedented heights, for it is by melding your steely resolve with an unyielding determination that you will carve your name into the tapestry of legends.

Welcome to Agresia Academy, where the pursuit of greatness knows no bounds, and the path to glory is illuminated by the splendid prowess of its students. Embrace the challenge that lies before you, for within these venerable walls, you shall discover the true extent of your potential. And remember, as I stand before you, the strongest swordsman to grace this academy, that only with unrelenting conviction and unwavering confidence can you etch your name in the annals of Agresian history.

Welcome to Agresia Academy, where legends are forged, and greatness reigns supreme!"

Declan ended the speech and it was welcomed with a huge round of applause. His speech was full of passion and grandiose, Declan's unparalleled conceit was visible in his words as well.

Vaan, who was hearing his speech from the start couldn't help but have a big smile on his face.

'Destroying him will be fun.'

He thought inwardly.

Thinking about the face Declan would make when he is on the ground, defeated, made Vaan excited.

"Heh."

Elara frowned as she noticed Vaan smiling strangely, unable to understand what he was thinking, she decided to just hold his hand and place her head on his shoulder to get his attention.

Vaan was pulled out of his thoughts in an instant, he started gently rubbing his thumb on top of Elara's hand as the two watched the rest of the induction.

"Now, proceeding forward, let me start with things all the Students in the Academy should know about,

The first one would be, your SIC.

Of course, since all the new students have spent the last 6 days in the Academy, you should already know that your SIC is not just a simple Student Identification Card, it is your access to a completely different world, the world of the Agresia Academy.

Checking your timetable, your attendance, your upcoming exams, information about the upcoming events and tournaments, registering for the said events and tournaments, checking your exam results, and many more, are only the basic functions the SIC provides. Honestly, if there is anything you want in the Academy, then more than often, you would find the information about it in your SIC.

Then, moving on to the more Advanced Features, the SIC allows you to access Articles written by other students. From the first look, it may look small, however, the Top Articles you usually read using the SIC are what the countless students in the Academy have approved of and found helpful. The amount of information you can access through these Articles is extremely high. You can even write your thoughts under the articles, letting other students read what you think.

The Articles also keep you updated about the most happenings in the Academy.

The SIC also allows the students to have a one-on-one conversation with each other. You can also converse with your Professors, however, do not expect the Professors to always reply to your messages, the Professors are not obligated to do that in any way.

The SIC can also be used to access different teleportation Portals and vehicles inside the Agresia Academy.

There are many other features the SIC has but with our time being limited, I will be leaving this topic here, if any of the students have some doubts regarding the SIC, you can always bother your seniors.

Of course, don't you dare come and bother me, I have better things to do.

Anyways, moving forward, we will now be discussing about Academy itself,

The Agresia Academy is mainly divided into 3 parts,

The Swords Division.

The Martial Arts Division.

And the Magic Division.

All the students here are part of any one of these Divisions.

Of course, there are also Churches, the students can join the church of the God they follow.

Then there are countless clubs in the Academy, with different clubs excelling in different areas. Some of the popular areas with the majority of the clubs are Magic Engineering, Familiar Training, and Alchemy.

The Academy also has its own Laboratories for Research and Development.

We have special land reserved for wildlife and Magic Beasts, students can buy their Magic Beasts Familiars from these lands using Academy Points.

We also have many Stadiums created to host the numerous tournaments held in the Academy throughout the Semester.

There are Residential Areas for the Students, Training Grounds for Aura and Magic Training, Areas to hold Cultural and Artistic Events, Magical Agriculture and Horticulture.

We also have a few places with Historical Significance, libraries with a huge number of books, books you might not find outside.

Of course, talking about libraries, I believe it is also time I talk about the places you students cannot visit carelessly,

The Restricted Zones in the Academy.

The First one would be the Forbidden Libraries, I believe the name is self-explanatory, these libraries hold knowledge that not many can access, if you wish to know what the Pandora's box holds, become competent enough to be able to open it.

The Second would be the Advanced Laboratories, our Academy promotes research and development, we provide our researchers the peace and silence they look for, no student is allowed to enter our Advanced Laboratories unless they are specifically invited.

The Professor's Quarters also comes under a restricted area to maintain our Profesor's Privacy, so unless you are invited, do not dare to enter a designated Professor's Quarters.

Our Academy also has its own Treasury, this is what we use to reward the excellent students, as to where this Treasury is, not many know, and it goes without saying, the Treasury is also a Restricted Area.

There are also some training grounds that are restricted for most students, to access them, you would need a certain number of Academy Points, however, as the strongest student and someone who used these grounds quite often, I can guarantee you, that the results of your training inside these Advance Training Grounds are worth the Points.

Now, last but not the least,

The Restricted Zone that students and professors alike crave to get into,

The Ancient Ruins.

The Heart of our Agresia Academy, the Ruins that never close, Ruins that can change one's life.

Of course, entering these Ruins isn't simple, students cannot just spend Academy Points or get Invited to be able to explore these Ruins,

There is only one way to enter the Ancient Ruins,

And that is to gather 5 Excellence Stars and upgrade your SIC."

Declan then glanced at Vaan and,

"Something that one of you new students has already achieved."
