It's the day of the first challenge for the Fall Season Dance Festival and the students at Academy for Royals are all gathered up at the South Gate of the Academy, because today it's not only the day of the first challenge, it is also the day of the opening of the School for Royals and Plebeians - or SRP - and the challenge would be a perfect way to introduce plebeians and royals to one another.

"All right, I think it's time to go." Ero announced, his arms wrapped around Theresa's waist from behind. "Shagar kito oneta arie sein si? / How do you think it is going to be like?" He asked Swan. Ero was a good friend. Not only the one Swan spends most time with, but one of the few who could speak his language.

"Nasukatarachi otoka. / I don't know."

After a fourth-five-minute-long walking Ero, Theresa and Swan arrived at SRP's main gate - along with the rest of the students.

"It's so beautiful!" Theresa let out.

From the golden gate they were able to spot an enormous lawn with a stone path that ring around a glass fountain of Lancelot and King Arthur holding their fists together, like best friends coming to a long-time-no-see hug.

They heard steps coming from the other side of the entrance area. The Plebeians had arrived, bringing along with them an awkward silence into the area. Swan didn't really want to, but he could not stop looking for Frederick... There he was in the green shirt.

Frederick looked right at him. Amber felt his cheeks burning up, turning his back on him.

"I don't really know if I am going to feel comfortable taking a bath with all of those girls looking at me. They look weird!"

"They. Look. Cool." Amber protested looking at a girl with blue neon hair. All of a sudden he had everybody looking at him and there was a big fuss flying around. Words that he didn't really understand.

Suddenly the blue neon hair girl walked into the opposite crown and stopped in front of Amber with a smile.

"Thank you." Her voice was clear, kinda squeaky, and her hand was extended out to him.

Not really sure of what to do Amber simple replied to her handshake, which she was very happy about. "You are welcome."

"WELCOME STUDENTS!!!" A man with a megaphone came from nowhere.

"THIS IS SCHOOL FOR ROYALS AND PLEBEIANS!!!" A woman called out into another megaphone walking between the crowds, coming from the opposite side. It was Miss Hans the Academy for Royal's headmaster. Typically wearing high heels and tailcoat jackets with a matching flat cap.

"AND AS YOU ALL KNOW, THIS YEAR WE HAVE THE "FALL SEASON DANCE FESTIVAL" JUST IN A FEW WEEKS..." The crowd roared.

"SO IN ORDER TO CELEBRATE THIS SCHOOL'S WAYS THE FIRST CHALLENGE IS GOING TO BE... A BAKING COMPETITION!!!"

"THOSE INTERESTED INTO OPENING THE BALL MUST ENTER THEIR NAMES AND MEET ALL THE OTHERS PARTICIPANTS AT TEN, IN THE SCHOOL DINING-HALL."

"DON'T MISS THE FIRST CLASS!!!" Humming.

"DISMISSED!!!!" A pink cloud teleported them out, leaving the school up to be explored by the students.

The two crowds joined together walking by the magically open gate and let itself dazzle by the surroundings. The lawn did not have much to see however.

On the other hand, the inside was much larger. Even though if it didn't look like that from the outside.

"It's probably enchanted." Amber told in Nordic to Miky, the blue haired girl, which happened to be fluent on the language too.
