CHAPTER 3 『DUEL』

Staring at the professor, I did nothing but smile.

"O-oh, Professor Edington. Good...morning."I said, trying not to explode.

A Professor?! A LITERAL Professor?! In THIS Academy?! There is no way!

No, I'm absolutely screwed!

Ok, ok Vespertite, it's alright. There's a solution for everything. All I just need to do is calm down and think clearly.

I was an Urg in the game of my previous life too, cause it was what resembled me the most in real life; blonde hair, blue eyes, and the such. And because I was an Urg, it means that I have some experience with Magic.

Yeah, I do have. This is going to be fine, Vespertite. This is going to go fine.

Make sure to see the bright side, too! This Academy is perfect for me to recruit talented students for my cause! Yeah, this won't be all that bad!

But to think that the 14 year old Vespertite actually managed to land a job into the freaking Royal Academy! I just couldn't fathom it! Imagine what kind of potential i have!

"How have you been, Professor Bernadotte? I hear you've been sick in bed these past few days. It correlates with your absences from the Academy as well. Is this why you missed your first day as a Professor in here?"said the tall Professor, as we walked along, next to each other, ascending the many stairs of the huge academical institution.

I smiled awkwardly, and nodded my head down, and replied affirmatively.

"Yes, Professor Edington. It seems I had the flu or some sort. Nothing I couldn't overcome. Still, such an unlucky peristasis! Imagine being absent on your first day!"I said, genuinely concerned. Jesus, didn't this girl have a sense of urgency?!

My mother used to send me to school even if I had a cold, so this would have been a walk in the park. I don't care if I'm a Princess now or something, nothing can stop me! Not even a disease!

"That's the spirit, Your Highness. Pardon my seemingly personal question, but you seem to have...changed a little. More refined and dignified, less childish."said Edington.

This man doesn't hold anything back now, does he?

"Oh, don't be so sure, Professor. I'm not promising anything!"I said, as we made our way inside the building. The Academy came straight out of a fantasy tale; it was a castle! They had a castle complex for a school!

Students bowed down on us as soon as they saw us enter the building.

"Oh, look! It's her! She's here!"said a student. Their uniforms signified something. Except for black and white, and an insignia on the left side of the torso, everyone's uniforms were the same, with a small difference.

All the students had a type of colour, which they wore on their armbands. White were the first years, yellow the second years, blue the third years, purple the fourth years, and red for the fifth years. I had a black armband, because I'm a Professor, of course!

I wish I could've seen that sooner! I feel like several years of my lifespan were drained from me.

The magic academy was divided into many floors, but the primary ones were 7: The Ballroom, the first floor, the second floor, the third, the fourth floor, the fifth floor and the Faculty floor. The Ballroom was something like the Dining Hall of the whole school. The other floors housed each year of the students respectively. The first years were on the first floor, the second years on the second floor, and so on.

Professor Edington, I don't know him. I didn't even know him in the game. I only know the Headmistress of the institution, she being one of the most influential and powerful individuals in the Empire. She's mostly absent in expeditions in God knows where for the Emperor, my father.
