It's early in the morning… should I come here a bit late instead? I mean, who even gets up at 7 am?
Looking around the front gate of Arnentiasis Academy, which is pretty much deserted, not fully though, I mean, there’s a guards and such
After greeting the guard and entering the academy, I could see that the hallway or even the academy itself had just been cleaned before, either in the early morning or in the late night
Walking deep inside the hallway and observing my surroundings, I couldn’t help but wonder: if Earth had continued using historic architectural styles, would it look anything like this?
The grand looking door in each of its rooms, a pillar supporting a few meters each, and a red carpet that seems to greet anyone who comes
As if I absorbed in my observation, I have arrived at the Millenia office room
Either the door itself is emanating an intimidating aura, or am I just feeling anxious, as I push the door open, I could feel its weight, as if my fate has been set in stone
Despite how anxious I am, there’s no one inside, and somehow it eases me a bit
I couldn’t understand how I could even feel such an emotion? Was Aronn's past life really affecting my emotions regarding finding a job and working?
I mean, having a job won’t kill a person, though I could somewhat understand the reason, but being unemployed would starve me to death
Stepping into the office, I was leaving some echo of my step behind
It is just how empty the office was, there are just a few chairs and a table, though there are a few bookcases, but it's empty
Genius sure works differently, huh?
After a while, I sat myself in the chair that’s close to the windows, looking at the outside, and I could see the road had turned pretty busy
Lean my back into the chair, I could see the surroundings of the office fully, despite how empty it is

It's insanely clean…
Somewhat reminding me of a certain film back on earth, where psychopaths were perfectionists, though she certainly is a normal person, right..?
After a while, when I was in the middle of deciding either to nap or go out, she finally appeared
A low ponytail with a deep blue ocean color, and an emotionless looking face, despite the lack of emotion, her face is insanely beautiful…
Though, isn’t she kind of short? Around like 155cm?
When I stood from my chair
“Kaleth. A recent graduate. Top of his class in Metamagics. Doesn't look like one.”
…What did she just say? I couldn’t help but feel that my eyes twitched a bit from that statement
“And” she continued
And? What? Can’t she just say something in a complete sentence?
“What happened with your mana? Did you get cursed or something?”
That sentence...
Was makes my entire body freeze completely
What happen?
Did the transfusion soul have a lingering effect?
Did I really get cursed?
So there’s something wrong with me?
There are too many possibilities

We... or should I say I'm with Millenia? Already started the history class
The classroom is filled with students, where some of them are listening to Millenia's explanation of history. Given this is just the start of the semester, they are still learning the basic history
Though you could see some noble students don't really pay attention much
I mean, they definitely already learn this when they're still little through a private teacher, right?
Arnentiasis, or should I say the kingdom itself? The nobles? Whatever, they're not discriminating against the commoner, you could say that almost half the students in this school are commoners
One of the reasons why there are a lot of commoners here is that once you're accepted, you wouldn't need to pay for the tuition...
Well? Is it more like the kingdom itself investing in its next generation? I mean, they’re commoners… well, so am I, doesn’t mean we’re less smart or skilled than the nobles, hence why this kind of thing exists, I mean? Who doesn’t want free tuition?
Honestly, it's like Aronn wasn't the first one who transmigrated into this world... or perhaps I just underestimated human intelligence to create such a system
Millenia explaining, there was once an era before the Moonrachia were used to label a year's cycle, the world was one big continent, not separated like today, and it was ruled only by one kingdom
Arc'viel Kingdom, the oldest kingdom that has been recorded, the fact that they ruled the whole continent alone is self explanatory, and how strong they are
That era is known as the ancient era, it's where the human, elf, dwarf, and any other race blood is still filled with rich golden blood, it's not as golden as its name, but rather where their blood is still pure
They’re basically the first ever generation of each race that has been created by the creator
It's like how Abel and Cain's blood is still pure because they're the first descendants of the first human, so their blood in that era isn't that faded from its original root
And the power in that era and the current world is just too different in the gap
The ancient era is when angels could still descend into our world, where the monsters were far more disgusting and overpowered
It's where something like Tiamat or such a god exists in the Earth mythology, in simple terms, some being that could easily overthrow the planet itself
There isn't any record for how long the demigod era or the Arc'viel Kingdom existed, but one thing is for sure: the end of that era is when the one single big continent is separated, just like now...
With just like that, the history class is already reaching its end
As for me, I am still assisting Millenia, holding the class attendance and such…
The reason why am I following her? Is because my mana’s twisted
She said that could be fixed if I went into the holy church and paid for their blessing services…
But I had no money left except for food, and the service itself is so damn pricey…
Hence, now I’m working as her slave… though she said it's a personal assistant rather than a slave, but where’s the difference...?
And the other reason is that she said she could fix it herself…
