From-DIDIDA Novels
'Mhm, good morning, Ely. Uh, we've arrived at the training ground for the knight class...' Elena got up from the bed and did a little stretching. She just woke up from her beauty sleep.
'Mm, good morning to you too, Sister Elena.' Elysia returned the greeting as she chatted briefly with Joanna and the others.
'Mhm, wonderful.'After finishing a short stretch, Elena returned to the comfortable bed while looking at her sweet little sister's environment.
'Ah, Ely, look, that Serena girl and her maids just arrived.' Elena pointed in a direction from within the Soul Realm.
That direction was conveyed to Elysia through a shared thought, and she turned in the intended direction. 'Yes, they have come. Then what happens?'
'Hehe... Say hello to that Serena girl with good morning greetings, and that's without honorific, okay? We'll make that rude girl awkward if she wants to do something bad to you again.' Elena suggested with a delightful giggle. She wanted to see the results of her small effort yesterday.
'Uhh, are you sure this will work?' Elysia felt doubtful.
'Yes, most likely, it could be... Anyway, give it a try.' Elena wasn't sure either, but she wanted to know and prove it.
'Hmm, fine.' Elysia just complied.
After saying that, she slightly waved her hand towards the three approaching girls. Then, she gave a brief greeting. "Good morning, Serena."
Elysia's pleasant voice sounded clear, and it was conveyed to several female students around them. Strangely, apart from Elysia, the female students around her became somewhat surprised and stopped their short conversation.
It was also applied to Evelyn, Joanna, and her dorm mates. They paused for a moment and looked at Elysia, then at Serena. At the same time, they wondered what response that arrogant girl with platinum grade talent would give.
Meanwhile, Serena frowned slightly. Suddenly, she received a greeting from a girl she hated. She immediately got the other female students' attention as if they wanted to know her answer.
In the past few days, she made many students look up to her as a high talent level student. Because of this, they approached her with pleasantries in a sphere of respect and awe.
Even so, they called her with respectful greetings with honorific usage such as miss, young miss, or some even called her princess. However, what happened now? This hateful girl greeted her casually as if they were a good friend.
Serena felt a little complicated and confused on this point. Apart from that, the other girls just made her feel more painful to ignore this hateful girl's greeting.
Nevertheless, Serena strutted towards her minion and returned the short greeting from that hateful girl. "Morning."
'See? Hehe...' Elena seemed proud of her actions yesterday. She had other plans for that Serena girl than just giving a divine punishment.
'...' Elysia did not answer but only made a silent agreement.
After that, she lowered her hand, then looked back at Evelyn and her four acquaintances.
"Hm, what? Is there something wrong?" Elysia asked with a clueless expression.
"Psst, Ely. Is this what you meant by what you said to Ella and me yesterday?" Evelyn spoke in a whisper as she drew closer to her best friend.
"Uhm, yes." Elysia could only admit it to represent Elena.
"Oh, wow... It turned out that way, and it proved to be true. I didn't get it yesterday, thanks, Ely." Evelyn nodded in understanding, even though she had other things on her mind about this enlightenment
"Nee, what are you two talking about, Miss Evelyn, Miss Elysia? Was it so secret that you exchanged whispers in front of us but didn't let us know?" Joanna smiled faintly.
"Oh, that's nothing. I'm just confirming something to Ely. Didn't you guys call Serena an arrogant and proud young miss? Look, she greets Ely back even though we're not that close to Serena." Evelyn quickly returned to her original position. She no longer spoke in a whisper.
"A, fiuh... Fortunately, no one heard you but us, Miss Evelyn. Or you would piss off Miss Serena at us." Joanna immediately looked around and breathed a sigh of relief.
Evelyn's statement could indeed be disastrous, and they discussed concerning bad things about an aristocrat behind her back. Serena could have her and her dorm mates on Serena's bad side list. No one wanted trouble to come to them, neither did Joanna.
"Ah, oh, sorry... Thank Goddess, I'm not talking out loud." Evelyn wasted no time and apologized. She didn't realize it because her mind was focused on what her best friend told her yesterday.
"Um, nevermind, nothing bad is done." Joanna slightly waved her hand to change the subject.
A few moments later, all the students finally arrived at the training ground. Instructor Dillon waited from the empty training ground until all 295 students attended without anyone being late.
The instructor had his reasons for waiting in silence. Since earlier, he had just stood in the middle of the training ground while folding his arms and observing each student's attendance.
One thing he got right now, all these new students were undisciplined for the knight class! Fortunately, today would not be like the previous knight class because the real knight class without leniency and so on was about to begin.
"All students, attention! Gather in neat rows." Instructor Dillon suddenly gave a loud cry when class was about to start.
No one failed to obey the order. The students immediately made several neat lines right in front of the instructor, just like any other practical class.
"Great response! Just for today, I will tolerate your indiscipline while attending the knight class. This class is called the knight class for obvious reasons. We train as KNIGHT! Demonstration of the real." Instructor Dillon studied the students for a moment with a fierce expression.
"From now onwards, I want all of you to line up neatly in the formation if the instructor was present even though the practical class hasn't started yet. Got it?" Instructor Dillon announced aloud.
"Yes, sir!" The students answered in a loud voice. They knew what they needed to answer, and it had to be in unison.
"Good, the previous knight class was nothing but an introduction. Today is the training without leniency that you should get in the knight class." After saying that, Instructor Dillon took out several large objects from his Space Bag.
*clank* *stab* *plug* *srug* *crack* *crash*
A series of noises from the objects being installed echoed into the ears of the students.
Neither of the students knew what the instructor was installing and managing. However, one thing was ringing in their minds. The real knight class! There was no mercy for the weak other than following the training regulations.
That was good news for students who were ready and prepared, but sad news for those who didn't know about it or weren't prepared.
'Wha- what? Are we really going to physical training like the military in a knight academy? Ah, ahh... I'm dead.' Elysia surveyed all the iron and objects with great care.
She became restless because she was one of the students who weren't ready. Knight class was the same as conscription class but in a fantasy world! It was also physical training, not just fighting and playing with weapons.
'Ah, take it easy, my sweety. Your body recovery is great. There are no significant difficulties.' Elena reassured her sweet little sister.
'Ah, but look at that. Uh, Instructor Dillon stuck tons of tools into the ground. Then that one, I'm sure it's for pull-ups. Then, those wrist and leg weights. Ahh...' Elysia felt anxious. She didn't know all the things in detail, but it had scared her just looking at it.
'That one, it doesn't look terrible, really. Oh, those are training uniforms and training shoes. Well, students will not undergo military training in normal uniforms and school shoes.' Elena could only point to the pile of uniforms because she knew it was benign.
'Ah, yes, at least I need to be grateful ... I don't have to undergo physical training in a shoe.' Elysia could only sigh silently.
The exclusive sports uniform and distinctive training shoes helped her calm down a little. So, she could say goodbye to training with school shoes that could make her heels suffer.
It didn't take more than a minute for the instructor to finish all of that. He returned to his original position in the middle of the field with a happy expression. To see the students who were about to be appropriately nurtured by him.
"As you can see in front of you and around this training ground. This class will not be like the previous one. For now, please take your exclusive training uniform... The blue ones for boys and the red ones for girls. Please change into that uniform in the locker rooms over there. You have five minutes for that. It starts now!"
Hearing Instructor Dillon's stern command, the students panicked and did not dare to be negligent. They immediately rushed to retrieve their training uniforms as quickly as possible. Five minutes was a reasonably short time to change their uniform.
