Introducing Him To The Class.

Now, what was the reason why Aiden was a little surprised when he heard the word 'library' flow out of her mouth? 'Cause he wasn't expecting that there'll be a library in this academy. He was underestimating this world's academies a lot.

There were libraries in modern-day schools, but he wasn't expecting that there'll be libraries in this world's schools...once again, he was underestimating them a lot.

But he wasn't the type that loves reading that much, in his previous world and this world, he was still the same. But as for his sister, Hazel, she loved reading a lot. Miss Alice sauntered on the compound as Aiden followed her from behind.

"Seems like the library is located in this building?". Aiden said to Miss Alice since they were heading to the other building, they were out of the one where the cafeteria was situated.

"Yes, it's located in this building". Miss Alice retorted as she kept sauntering.

They strolled until they arrived at the building, then she began mounting the staircase at the left-hand side, and Aiden mounted it along with her. There were two staircases in the building, one was located on one side, and one was located on the other side.

But Miss Alice chose to mount the one closer to her instead of strolling again just to mount the other one...wise choice. They mounted the staircase until they got to the second floor, then Miss Alice began sauntering in the corridor as Aiden kept following her.

As they sauntered, he glanced at some classrooms, and he could see students in robes sitting on different wooden chairs with wooden tables in front of them. Some of the classrooms had teachers in them, while some didn't.

The ones that had teachers in them, all the students in those classrooms had books in front of them with reed pens in their hands. And there was something Aiden noticed about these classrooms, they didn't have permanent boards in them. This was how it was being done...

..Any subject teacher that strolls into a classroom would have to carry his or her own board in their hands. The board would be somehow mini, and once they want to start teaching, they'll hang the board in front of the class.

Once they were done teaching, they'll take the boards along with them...that was how it was being done. This was different from how it was being done in modern schools. In modern schools, each class would have its own boards...permanent ones.

So once a teacher steps into a classroom, he or she wouldn't have to carry any board along with them, there were boards in each class already. All they have to bring was a marker and their teaching notes.

Aiden noticed that there were older kids in some classes, kids that were in their teens already. They must have passed through the stage Aiden was about to pass through now. He kept on following Miss Alice's lead as they arrived in front of a door, and the inscription, 'Library' was written on the door.

That was confirmation that this was the library before Miss Alice opened the door and the both of them stepped foot into it. The moment they stepped foot into it, Aiden began glancing around. He sighted shelves with books arranged in them carefully and neatly.

And he also sighted wooden chairs and tables in the library. He was glancing at the chairs and tables when Miss Alice's voice resounded,

"That's where students sit to read, you can read whatever books of your choice. The library is not for everyone, you'll have to love reading to be visiting it constantly".

And Aiden nodded his head at that moment, what she said was completely true, you'll have to love reading to be visiting the library constantly. He doesn't love reading that much, so he wasn't sure he'll be visiting this place that much.

Just by glancing at the covers of the books, Aiden could tell they weren't published. They were just written with reed pens, the titles of the books were written on the covers, and the covers were designed.

Miss Alice stretched her right hand toward one of the shelves and took a book from it. The title on the cover was, 'Some Of The Kings That Have Ruled Over The Tuvalon Kingdom And Their Histories'.

Miss Alice glanced at Aiden and voiced out, "See, this is a history book, it's focused on that".

Aiden had already discerned that before she uttered it to him. She put the book back on the shelf and took out another one. The title on the cover of the book reads, 'The Reason For Tribute Paying'.

"This is also a history book". Miss Alice said once again.

She put the book back into the shelf, took out another one, showed it to Aiden, and the title on the cover reads, 'Mathematical Theories'. She uttered to Aiden,

"Now, this is a mathematics book, a book about calculation. Do you love calculation?".

Aiden nodded his head while uttering, "Yes, to a certain extent".

And that was true, he loved mathematics as a whole to a certain extent, but it was nowhere near his best subject. In his previous life, while he was in school, he never failed mathematics apart from the time when the bullying he was receiving was getting to him too much.

Miss Alice kept the book back on the shelf, then she said to, Aiden,

"You've seen the library, it's about time for me to show you some other places in this academy".

The both of them departed from the library, then she showed him some other places in the academy. She made sure to show him where to go whenever he was pressed and wanted to ease himself.

And right now, both of them were standing in front of one of the buildings on the compound...the edifice where the library was situated. Miss Alice said to Aiden,

"I am done showing you the necessary places in this academy. Now, it's about time for me to take you to your class".

Aiden only nodded his head, then she uttered once again,

"Follow me".

After making that utterance, she began moving immediately. She walked straight to the staircase and began mounting it, and Aiden followed her from behind. They got to the second floor, but she wasn't done, she began mounting the staircase that would lead them to the first floor, and Aiden kept following her from behind.

As they ascended, Aiden had already discerned something,

'Seems like my class is located on the first floor'.

And he was correct, reaching the first floor, Miss Alice began sauntering in the corridor, and Aiden kept following her from behind. As they strolled, he glanced at the different classes, and he could see students in them. Some had teachers in them, and some didn't.

Reaching the door of a certain compartment, she stopped walking and stepped foot into the compartment, this was Aiden's class. Aiden followed suit, he stepped foot into the class.

Some students in the class were discussing before Miss Alice entered, but the moment they sighted her...they kept mute. Miss Alice and Aiden were standing in front of the classroom currently, and all the students were glancing at them.

Aiden was making use of that chance to be scanning around the classroom. Each student was sitting on wooden chairs with a table in front of them. This was how it was being done in modern schools.

He was supposed to be amused a little, but he wasn't 'cause he's sighed things like this while he and Miss Alice were roaming around the academy. He's sighted that the other classes had chairs and tables in them, and each person was occupying one.

So he was expecting that his class would be the same. He glanced at the students, and he could see that they were dressed in different colors of robes...some were wearing the same color of robe though. Their bags were close to them, but none of them had books in front of them.

At this point, he couldn't even tell who he was older than and the ones the same age as him among the students. He and Miss Alice were still standing in front of the classroom, and the students were still glancing at them. Then Miss Alice suddenly voiced out,

"Guys, this is Aiden Dankworth, he is seven years old, and he is gonna be joining this class".

The moment she was done making that statement, a certain kind of expression appeared on the faces of the students. Their expression reads, 'Wow! he is starting late'.

Miss Alice noticed the expression on their faces, and she didn't waste time voicing out,

"I know, I know, he is starting late...but this is the time he chose to start".
