Chapter 5 - Class Division

********

About a month had passed since that day, the day Principal Xiren tested Gerrard's abilities which finally made Principal Xiren faint just like Alex had in the village. Now a day after the exams were over, Gerrard went to school again to get the necessary materials.

And today was the day of the entrance ceremony that was written on the material that Gerrard had received.

"Finally the entrance ceremony... I was free until now, but it will be released today."

Gerrard tucked his hand into the uniform sent from school, fastened the two buttons around his neck, and stepped into the magic school's entrance ceremony.

"It's a place called the Magic Academy. I didn't think there were so many new students."

Gerrard sat in one of the designated seats at the venue, which would seat about 300 people. One voice resounded as time passed and was perhaps the last student to sit on a chair in the venue.

"From now on, we will hold the Magic Academy entrance ceremony. First, greetings from the headmaster."

Called by his name, Principal Xiren climbed the podium in the middle.

"Everyone who enrolls in the magic school… Congratulations on your enrollment. In this magic school, you are familiar with all areas such as swordsmanship and martial arts as well as magic. And please do your best so that you can apply what you learn in this school is for the future. that's all."

The place was filled with cheers.

(Is it so interesting at the entrance ceremony...is that so?)

Gerrard was skeptical about the new student's seemingly exaggerated reaction.

"Next, I want to talk about the precautionary measures of the student guidance teacher."

(Is there such a thing… Of course, if there are students who are stronger than the environment among the magic school students, it will be arrogant, so it will be welfare)

A familiar man appeared at the center table.

"My name is Alex a teacher in this Magic Academy. First of all, the guidance of students in this magic school is to prevent students who have more power than others from bullying other students. This time, I want you to remember 3 points to remember until graduation...

1. As I mentioned earlier, don't look down on other students just because you are stronger than the rest.

2. If a student is being bullied, please come see me. I will help.

3. This is a continuation of the second point in this... I'm going straight to the clean-up for students who bully. Don't forget that point...

"I'm not proud, but I'm the second strongest person in this school after the principal. Please observe the three points above and look for the magic school life."

This time, chaos spread without cheers. The deciding factor was Alex who was the second strongest in the school after the principal.

"Oh, Alex..."

Gerrard could only laugh at the behavior of Alex, who used to be a private tutor when Gerrard was 2 years old.

(Though only magical operations are good... that's not it)

Gerrard had become too strong due to the effects of reincarnation so far. Therefore, Gerrard could say this because he was completely ignorant of the general standard of power in today's world...

Even with this, Alex is a category that goes for the top and bottom in terms of strength alone. Gerrard wouldn't know that for now...

"This is the end of the admissions ceremony. We will classify you from now on. We will contact you as soon as it is over, for then the next activity is free time, but please don't leave the school grounds even if there are no activities before class division.!!"

Starting with the moderator's words, some students leave their seats, talk to friends, and go to bed or eat.

"Well, should I look for it?"

Of course, Gerrard decided to find Sara. However, it was difficult to find Sara in this large crowd of students, so Gerrard used space detection to find Sara.

After using room detection, Gerrard finally found the whereabouts of Sara walking around the venue. Sometimes Sara said something, but Gerrard couldn't hear her because she was drowned out by the voices around her.

Gerrard then walked over to Sara and stood right behind her.

"Hi Sara, long time no see. Looks like you've successfully passed the exam and been accepted as a student at this Magic Academy."

"Hi !?"

Sara was surprised that Gerrard called her from behind. You did something wrong...

Sara turned her face towards the voice and saw who it belonged to, and her face broke.

"Ge, Gerrard! I'm glad to see you again... I tried looking for you, but couldn't find you, but don't do anything like that again, I'm surprised.!!"

"I'm sorry for that. Sorry."

"By the way, I'm free after this. How about Gerrard, do you have some business? If not, I wonder if we can be together until the next announcement."

"I'm free too, so it's fine."

"Thank You"

After that, Gerrad and Sara chatted about Sara's exam.

********

"Well, what are you going to do?"

"What should I do, I'm not thinking about anything"

An indescribable air flowed without any thought of each other.

"Hmm, right! Visit this magic school. Gerrard doesn't know about this school either, does he? I don't know where it is either, so let's explore together."

"Good, I'm sure it's the principal's office... I only know the location of the First Combat Training Ground."

"Then leave immediately."

Sara took Gerrard's hand and walked out of the venue.

"Looks like you're in a better mood than when we met before, is there something good?"

"Eh? Um... I feel good. I wonder if it makes me feel excited or warm when I'm with Gerrard? I don't know... Oh, maybe my hand Is that a barrier to connecting?"

Sara replied with a slight blush. The audience knows that Sara is in love with Gerrard, but she is only about seven years old and doesn't know how she feels right now much less about Love.

On the other hand, Gerrard who has lived for about 9000 years including all reincarnated lives, is a man who is not good at love at all.

So they thought ((Was it nice to see you again?)) To what Sara said.

"No, it doesn't get in the way. I don't think it's a friend. Well, good to talk here, but let's go."

This time Gerrard took Sara's hand.

"Precisely."

Sara also started walking to Gerrard's side, holding hands. By the way, when they left the place, some of the students envied them, but they got out and started exploring the school without realizing it.

********

"Sara, this is the principal's office. Well, I have nothing to explain."

"Is this the principal's room? I don't think I would ever come here..."

"How about it? Rather, is this the last place?"

"Maybe it's true... Hey, it's time to go back to the venue? I don't care."

"Right... The classification will be finished in a bit. Shall we return to the venue while talking?"

While the two were still holding hands and talking, the door in front of them opened, and of course, the principal was there.

"Oh, it's Gerrard and who is that?"

"Nice to meet you... My name is Sara and this time I'm signing up."

"Principal ... I know we are at the door and open the door. Remove the sign carefully."

"Correct answer, as expected, Gerrard"

Gerrard had no choice but to marvel at the headmaster who laughed like a successful naughty child.

"Gerrard, have you met the principal?"

"No, no, principal... it was about the exam that day, the day we first met. And that's when I met the headmaster to do the Exam.!" Gerrard panicked when asked such a thing by Sara.

"Eh!? The exam opponent is the headmaster... Is Gerrard okay?"

"Oh, of course, it's still intact."

"Yeah, listen, Sara-chan, this Gerrard-Kun, I who was the number one strongest person in this school even lost against Gerrard-Kun, even then Gerrard-Kun wasn't serious at all!"

(What's with that tone, principal)

"Eh!? How strong was Gerrard that the Headmaster lost?"

"Well, I'll tell you about that later."

"Beyond that, what are you doing Gerrard? On the first day of enrollment, holding hands with Sara and dating? Well done, young man."

In the headmaster's words, one had a red face up to his ears, and the other had a face that could be compared to what this person had said. Of course, the former was Sara and the latter was Gerrard.

"What are you talking about? No, that's not it."

"That's right, principal, isn't it normal for us to hold hands since we are friends?"

"Hmm, if that's the case, I'll say that. Instead, the classification will end soon. Right now, I'm selecting a top-class student, so it's best to return to the venue."

"That's right, let's go back, Sara."

"..."

"Sarah?"

"Yes!? Eh? Alright, let's go back."

Because of the headmaster's words, Sara now realized that she was holding hands with Gerrard, and her face was starting to turn red.

Gerrard, unaware of such a thing, returned to the venue with Sara.

********

Gerrard and Sara parted ways when they returned to the venue and took their seats. At that moment, when she let go of Gerrard's hand, Sara looked apologetic. But again Gerrard didn't notice.

"In that case, the classification is complete, so I will announce it. Please have a look in front of you."

Then, the principal who appeared in the middle activated magic.

"The magic of life: clear video display"

(Hmm, that magic should be used mainly by nobles. I didn't understand the meaning of using it until now, but I see, is there a way to use it?)

The other students were surprised by the large screen that appeared in the middle, but Gerrard was thinking about using the skill.

(Well, it's more class than that. Where's my class?)

Gerrard glanced at the screen in front of him. Then searched for a while and found his name.

5 groups of 1 year, who became class president ...

(Why am I the chairman... Well, that must be the principal's job)

Gerrard sighed softly so that others wouldn't notice. Then again looking under his name to find out who was in the same class. There

First year group 5 deputy seats 3 Sara.

It's been written.

(Is Sara in the same class...)

Both were a little relieved that Gerrard and Sara were in the same class.

"It seems like a fun school life."

Gerrard spoke as if muttering. Forget the initial obscurity.
