I left the cafeteria.
Now heading to my room. I don't want any more red flags. While roaming around the academy premises. And I don't want to train in the training grounds anymore until the Academy starts which is tomorrow. It's Not because I am scared, but just because I don't have the skills to defend myself.
Change of plans.
I can train my basic swordsmanship in my room.
And at night when there are fewer people on the training grounds. I am gonna train my 5-star manual.
Tomorrow onwards Academy is going to start. All the main cast is going to come to the Academy today. I just don't want to meet them.
Nothing good, going to come from being with them. All that will come are problems. And I don't like dealing with them (problems).
But I am really excited to see them. Who would not be excited to see their fantasy characters seen in real life? of course from far away. Like today how I watched Fred.
Finally, I reached my room. After doing some basic training like push-ups and some basic stuff. I am really bored. I don't even have a sword to practice my art they only provide wooden swords at the training grounds. And the Academy doesn't allow weapons from the outside. Because poor people can be at a disadvantage.
U see those rich guys can afford all types of artifacts. While poor people are only able to afford low-grade swords. And there is me who can't even afford a normal sword
So the academy provides weapons for everyone to avoid those unfair situations. And tomorrow I am going to get my weapon from the academy. And also they will update the class section details in the Academy watch after the entrance ceremony.
Tomorrow onwards I am going to get quite busy.
'Let's just leave tomorrow's problems to tomorrow me'.
Oh, I completely forgot about the mana circulation method. For up to 4-star manuals they have to get their separate mana circulation manuals. But that's not the case for 5-star manuals. They have their own, mana circulation method included in the art.
How the fuck did I forgot. I wasted so much time. (people make mistakes. And I do a lot of them)
"Hm, anyway past is past"
Saying that I sat on the ground opposite my bed. I started to circulate my mana as instructed in my manual. My body started getting hot as I continued.
After opening my eyes I looked at the clock. It's been almost six hours since I started my meditation. I completely lost track of the time. This may cause problems in the future. That won't do. I need to keep an alarm next time if not I may get late for any important matters ( though I don't have any. )
I am completely soaking in sweat right now. I washed up and changed my dress.
It's quite addictive to feel mana moving inside my body, And also refreshing.
It's already 10 pm. I have to head to the training grounds.
After reaching the training grounds I can barely see people, there are like 5 to 10. Maybe because tomorrow is starting day for the academy and everyone was too busy to be nervous or thrilled.
While looking around I can still see our second mc, Fred. Still training.
Ignoring him I picked up a wooden sword and started to train my 5-star manual [shadow dance].

Fred Grant's pov*
I have been training for almost 6 hours.
'not enough' I'm almost at my breakthrough to the next rank may be it will take one or two weeks.
I still wanted to train but my body doesn't have enough strength to move. Looking at the clock it's already one in the morning.
Tomorrow the academy going to start. And I have to wake up quickly I don't want to be late on my first day. So I decided to stop.
While going back I have seen a person still training with his sword.
What's up with him? His form is so bad and his moments are clumsy. like he just started practising with a sword a few days ago, but something feels off about him he was so calm. No, he is not showing any emotion at all. Does he not feel tired at all?
Ufff whatever
'let's just leave
Thinking about tomorrow, I left the training grounds.

Arthur Gill's pov*
Huff huff
It's almost 2 in the morning. I lost track of the time again. I should head back.
Maybe I should skip my dinner today. ( it's already morning though)
...
"shit! I am late"
I quickly got up from bed. The opening ceremony should be already started.
I hurriedly washed my face and put on some clothes
Now I running to the auditorium.
