After reaching the dorms, the students went to their assigned rooms as instructed.

The Lectures started the following day, so Kyle decided to practice using his breathing technique in the meantime, 'The mana here is 2x more concentrated than back home, I guess this is from the barrier surrounding the Academy,' thought Kyle as he was absorbing mana.

Classes were divided in two, part of them was the general classes which students are obliged to attend regardless of their path, while the other part was the specific classes which students attended based on their career path. There are three types of career paths, being:

_Battle Mages/Magicians are mages/magicians who fight, they can become guards for nobles or soldiers for the country.

_Alchemists are mages/magicians that use alchemy to research and possibly create spells, and create potions and elixirs.

_Clerics are religious mages/magicians that join Churches after graduating and in turn get bestowed upon divine magic (light magic) that grants them the power to heal and purify things.

The next day at 7 am, the students headed to the lecture hall to receive their first lecture of the day from a female Professor who was none other than Professor Stacy Nero. The lecture was a general lecture that talked about the theories of mana usage and how to maximize the efficiency in mana control, as such the user would be able to use twice the amount of magic using half the amount of mana.

The lecture went on for 2 hours before recess started, Kyle headed straight to the cafeteria to eat as he was starving because he forgot to make breakfast before leaving for the lecture.

Kyle was overwhelmed upon entering the cafeteria as it was a place so large that there were seats for almost everyone in the Academy, yet it was only natural for it to be that large as it was not only the place where people eat, but it was also the place where students from different grades meet, making it an especially busy place during recess.

There, Kyle struggled to find any place to eat seeing how it was full of people with already-made friend groups. Luckily, there was an empty table at the corner of the hall to which he hurried to after receiving his food from the cafeteria lady. "What are you doing here? This is my seat!" said a haughty voice that clearly didn't seem to take no for an answer from behind. Kyle instantly turned around only to be met with a short, dark-haired boy with purple eyes and a round face that did not seem a day older than 13 years old which was weird, as the minimum age requirement for the Academy was 16 years old.

Kyle naturally didn't know who that was as no family other than the Royal Family had unique features, and so he replied angrily, "Who do you think you are, acting as the master of this place? If there is an empty seat, just sit. Why try and monopolize something like a seat in a cafeteria?!" This was out of character for Kyle, a person that doesn't get angry easily. However, he's been searching for a seat for about 10 minutes already and his food was turning cold which justified such an outburst.

The person who said that was Henry Choros, the young master of the strongest Dukedom, the strongest family after the Royal Family, The Dukedom of Choros, House of Space.

Henry was clearly shocked, having someone shout at him was not something that happens often. In fact, it was the very first time something like this has ever happened as even his parents never shouted at him. "Y-Y- How dare you scream at me like that?? I'm the young master of the Dukedom of Choros, the one who became an official mage at the age of 15! Someone who could wipe out your whole family with just one order."

Kyle gulped as he realized the mistake he just committed, he quickly bowed apologetically while being flustered and said "I'm really sorry young master Choros, I didn't realize it was you I was talking to I was just frustrated, having someone try and steal my sea- N-No I didn't mean that you were trying to steal my seat, it's just-" "STOP!" ordered Henry, already bored of this conversation, "It's fine, as long as you acknowledge your mistake!" said Henry after calming down while huffing.

Although Henry was offended that some nobody dared to shout at him, he still did not mind having someone his age talk to him informally as it was a first experience. "You can sit here with me," said Henry in a half-ordering, half-embarrassed tone. Kyle was surprised by such behavior but knew better than to offend a member of the strongest Dukedom twice, plus who knows he might just end up having a powerful backer.

"Yes young master, I'll do as you ordered" replied Kyle in a shady manner, "No need for formalities," whispered Henry, clearly embarrassed by the situation. "O-okay, youn-I mean Henry" replied Kyle, slightly worried that Henry would flip out as he did a while ago despite being the one to insist on such a thing but to his surprise he didn't, instead it seemed like he quite liked being called by his first name. 'Maybe there's something wrong with him, eh not my problem' though Kyle was still slightly confused, he chose to dismiss it.

After properly sitting down, Henry asked for Kyle's name to which he responded with "I am Kyler Fowler from the Viscounty of Fowler," Kyle suddenly thought about how it was going to be hard to continue speaking with Henry without accidentally using formal speech.

Although Henry did not expect much from Kyle considering his previous outburst, he still didn't expect him to be the son of a mere Viscount, yet he still felt slightly amused in the face of such information.

They then continued eating while Kyle had to entertain him with small talk that Henry looked forward to. While they were eating, Kierra sighted Kyle sitting on a nigh-empty table which made her rush to him, happy to see him for the first time in a couple of months. "Heyyyy Kyleeeee," yelled Kierra looking enthusiastic.

"What?? Kierra??" replied Kyle surprised, although he knew that she was in the Academy he wasn't expecting to see her so soon considering there are about 10,000 students in it.

Upon reaching him, she noticed Henry sitting next to him and commented sarcastically: "So, already made a friend?" Kierra was similar to Kyle's father in how she always teased Kyle for the most common things, so Kyle decided to get back at her this once and said with a devilish smile: "Yes, as you can see this is Henry Choros, the young master of THE DUKEDOM OF CHOROS, my new friend."
