The sun rose early in the morning at Märchen Academy.

As the red sun peeked over the horizon, heralding the dawn. I woke up my weary body and prepared for the day.

I started the day with a morning run. Just like how I used to recite legal texts in my head when I was a law student, I reviewed what I studied the night before by going through it in my head while jogging.

After jogging, I looked up the things I couldn't remember in my book. This method was very effective for memorization.

Since I maximized my [Learning Efficiency], it felt strange that I could study well even when I was exhausted. If I had this body in Korea, I would have easily passed the three major Korean national examinations.

I took a shower and walked out naked. The shower facilities in Elma Hall, a middle-high-ranked dorm, were of much better quality than my previous dorms.

As I wiped my soaked silver-blue hair with a tower, I stood in front of a full-length mirror and looked at my body. Sure enough, I felt taller. My proportions were better than before.

The baby form of Frost Dragon Hilde was rolling around on my desk. It was a non-verbal signal for me to pet her, so I touched her belly and she let out a cute 'uhh' sound. She was just like a dog. No, let me rephrase that. She was like a puppy.

I changed into my school uniform. As I tied my necktie, I felt a slight pressure on my neck.

It had been a while since I graduated from high school, but after staying at the academy for over a year, I got used to wearing a uniform again.

I walked out of Elma Hall and was greeted by Luce Eltania at the front gate. Her beauty and reputation attracted the attention of many students.

On days when her training at the Magic Tower didn't overlap, we usually went to school together.

I responded to Luce's usual greeting, 'How's the weather today?' and we headed to the Magic Department building together.

We entered our respective classrooms and prepared for class.

I was holding a magic tool. It was essential to practice my mana mastery in my spare time. In the meantime, I focused on improving my magic proficiency by calculating various formulas in my head.

Calculating magic formulas was quite tiring, and I often got headaches and felt exhausted in the beginning. It was a symptom of overusing my brain. But I was used to it now, so it was fine.

"Appear like the wind, Professor Daisy."

Daisy, the second-year Class B Professor, swung the classroom door open and entered. It was a noisy entrance that didn't look like the wind to anyone.

Several students looked surprised as if they hadn't gotten used to her yet.

I placed my magic tool under my desk and turned to face Professor Daisy.

"Before we start the class, let me make an announcement."

Professor Daisy slammed a textbook down on her desk.

She looked around the students with a serious face. She seemed to pause to gauge their reaction.

At this time of year, everyone knew there was an event about to take place. However, it wasn't decided yet whether the plan would proceed, so the students were skeptical.

This was due to the numerous events that had occurred since last year. Demons had been appearing unexpectedly, after all.

Everyone wanted to enjoy a big event, but they were well aware that they should refrain from festivals and events. It was always a pity for the students.
