80 79 - School Campus

"We'll get food later alright." Violet glanced at Michael seeing that he was about to enter the cafeteria she pulled him in another direction.

Walking along the long path with other students Violet decided to give even more information to the boys.

"Remember your earlier question you asked?" Violet said to Victor.

"Yes, what is the best thing to do first." Victor replied while thinking back to earlier.

"Yep that one, well if you both look over there you'll see a bunch of booths set up." Violet pointed over to where some students were talking to new students.

"They're trying to recruit new students to join their Club, you see one of the most important choices you'll ever make is joining a club. It is basically a requirement to be in a club during your time here." Violet said as they walked past.

"Why is it such an important thing, after aren't clubs usually for spots or training?" Michael asked seeing no reason to join a club, after all school clubs aren't exactly something he would seem as important.

She laughed at his words before saying.

"That clubs in normal schools, you're now in a academy that prepares students for the dangers in this world, so why would you think that clubs would be the same."

"Clubs here are more of a organisation than anything, as people can still be apart of a club even after leaving the academy. Usually they are connected to organisations outside of the academy, making it easier for them to recruit people through their connected club."

"Anyway long story short, joining a club is the most important thing you have to do first, weather that be obtaining knowledge, resources, help or backing. Of course there's other advantages you can obtain but that depends upon the club and if you get any bonus for joining."

"That's why you have to make your choice carefully." Violet explained seriously as she crossed her arms under her chest.

"Anyway we've arrived." Violet suddenly said gesturing forwards.

In front of them was a huge building several stories high, with intricate carvingsof patterns along the outside from the bottom to the top.

Students entered and exited the building in a steady stream, Violet lead them into the large marble building.

"This is the Hall of Knowledge, or you can just call it the school's library but that doesn't do this place any justice." Violet said entering inside.

Walking inside the sight was amazing, if you looked up you could see all the floors above as books fly up and down, between selfs and students reading.

A massive chandelier hung down giving light to all of the floors, artwork lined the walls and sat on top of shall pillars, there were small and large reading areas for comfort and study each with a homey look and feeling.

Huge massive bookshs lined to each floor each tall and long, without any space not neatly taken by a book.

While Victor's gaze was taken by this incredible sight of knowledge and beauty, Michael's was taken by the cafe on the base floor next to a large reading lounge.

"This place holds information on every topic you'll ever need, it's just a question of how much you can learn. The higher the floor you go the more detailed and comprehensive information you'll find, of course you'll need permission to enter certain floors and areas but unless you're looking for restricted information you won't need to enter those areas."

They stood in the entrance while Violet introduced them to the library of the school.

"But I would be care and respect the books here with care, otherwise disciplinary action against you will be the least of your problems." Violet said with a serious face as she warned them.

"If you're wondering yes there is quite a few spell books and skills books amongst the books here but there isn't many so you're lucky if you found one, but generally speaking those types of books aren't stored here so yeah."

"Come on we've only got so much time left before curfew." Violet took them around the Hall of Knowledge before they left to continue their tour but when she checked the time their plans changed.

As they only had a little time left before curfew for new students, Violet only had enough time to take the boys to buy food for them and taking them over to their respective residents.

So she took them back over to the cafeteria to get a quick meal , walking through the main street the place was a mix of colour and lights which illuminated the darkening sky and street.

The whole place had a happy lively air as students were everywhere, waiting in line to enter a restaurant, sitting down eating, taking amongst each other or walking along down the streets.

The smell and aroma of food, drinks and dishes were everywhere in the air, from sweet, spicy, sea food and all, could be smelt as they passed by.

Michael was like a puppy as they walked past, his face was glowing as he looked at all the different types of food, not to mention the aroma was a full feast to his nose and senses.

But unfortunately no matter how good it smelt it would never fill his stomach, no it did the complete opposite and only made his feel like he hasn't eaten in 16 years as he's stomach ached and grumbled in hunger.

"As you've both made it and gotten in, I'm treat you both to a meal tonight and I just happen to know a great place." Violet grinned happily as she cheered .

"Yes!" Michael cheered with her, not at her reason but for the food.

Stopping in front of a luxurious steakhouse call Grilled Dragon, Violet smiled when she smelt the aroma coming from the restaurant.

A small line of people waiting to be seated was in front of the entrance, Violet walked right past the the line over to a beautiful hostess.

"Good evening, how can I help you." She smiled at Violet after seeing her the three stars around the dragon symbol over her heart.

"Yes, I would like a table for three on the third floor please." Violet said with a cold face before handing over a card.

The hostess quickly scanned the card making sure it was real before handing it back with a respectful face.

"Please, I hope your stay with us exceeds expectations." Violet nodded before walking inside.

The first floor was decorated in red and black, red pieces of high quality silk was tired to the ceiling and pliliars with lights behind them.

The place was packed with tables were people were enjoying all sorts of different dishes.

Violet lead them right over to the stairs to the next floor, this attracted quite a few stares, after all not anymore can go to the second floor or above.

The second was similar in layout to the first only it was better decorated and had less tables, if the first floor had 150 tables then the second only had 100.

The first floor also had people at every table but the second didn't, there was also classical music being played making the atmosphere more refined.

Violet didn't even glance at this floor as she continued to the stairs to the third floor, they did still grab the attention of those dinning of this floor though as they started to whisper.

"Hey isn't that the Illusion Witch Violet Wise?" A male human recognised Violet immediately upon seeing her.

"Yeah that's her." Someone at the table next to him confirmed.

"I've heard she's beat up three other students on the Supremacy List by herself all at once." Others hearing th began to gossip.

"What? No way, she's that strong?" A young female dwarf said in wonder.

"Yeah she is, but I wonder who's the two with her?" Her companion eating with her said.

"Probably relatives?" The young dwarf said.

"But I've heard that she only had a older sister, you know her.." he replied lowering his face as much as possible hoping Violet wouldn't hear him.

Violet didn't care about them at all as she entered the third floor, as soon as the did the sound was cut off by a magic formation.

Making it so the room's pace wouldn't be disturbed by the sound from lower floors.

Violet went right over to a table next to a window overlooking the street below, three waiters who knew they were coming followed them before pulling out three chairs for them to sit down.

After sitting down they each were handed a menu, Michael immediately opened it and quickly got lost in the thought of what he should get.

Victor followed him and checked the menu, his eyes widened slightly at the list of different monster meat you could eat here.

There was even meat from Leader rank Monster in dishes here.

Violet on the other hand didn't really care for this as she in stead glanced over the menu before deciding on what to get.

She handed back the menu to the waiter before listing off her order.

"I'll get todays special, the lava bear steak medium rare, and I'll also get a large Cinnamon-honey creme brulee. With a nice earth flower wine." Violet said as the waiter quickly wrote it down.

"I'll get a raging bull steak cooked to medium rare as well, the molten chocolate cheesecake and lemon lime and bitters please." Victor said before also passing back the menu.

"Ummm, I'll get... The same as her order just with a chocolate milkshake." Forced to hurry with his choice he gritted his teeth and picked the same as Violet before reluctantly giving back the menu.

"It will be out within a minute, so please excuse us." The waiters left to organise everything.
