"I want you to write an essay of two standard-sized scrolls for tomorrow about your thoughts on the supply chain and its importance to the military."
"AHHHH~"
"Howork! NO!!"
"It's only the second day and there's already howork!"
"..."
"Shup up! You have an hour of rest and report to training camp number twelve. Team Four, you will start your fights so get ready. You can go!"
In the midst of the student scandal, Professor Rudelle left. At this mont, everyone crowded around Destan.
"Great! We will finally see the first boy in close combat."
"A man with a sword, he must be sexy"
"It's the first ti I've seen a family mber attack on a boy"
Everyone was talking about watching Destan fight, I think this would be like in my previous world, where when all the girls choose the character of priest or so other support character, and a girl cos along choosing a tank.
And it's not that it's sexist, it's that it's rare that it happens and all the n were impressed, although of course, they all thought that it was going to fail with a tank. That's sexist!
Here too it seems to be a rat sight to see a man, who is always in the back protected, going to the front this ti with a sword. Fighting hand-to-hand.
Maybe all the girls praise him now, but inside they think that he will not achieve anything and that he will scream and cry when the ti cos.
"Don't be nervous Destan, I will protect you at the ti of fighting. YOO!"
Magen, who was next to Destan, patted his shoulder, as if to say, "Leave it to ."
"What do you think of Destan's combat skill?"
Xifia, at so point, appeared next to my seat. Although the classroom design is in an amphitheater style, the seating is individual and not collective, so unless soone brings the seats together, there is a space for one person to walk through.
"He is chosen by the Athenahotep family, and by Ingrid herself, he also has his training and resources, although he is a man, he cannot fail"
That thinking is very matriarchal! I think that's how they would respond in my previous world...
"Mm, hard work..."
Kara, as always, only says a couple of words, but I think it ans that Destan is working hard to be a good swordsman.
"It can't be worse than ... ugh~"
Tikshna, as the person with low self-esteem and shy, says regardless of the gender of the other person, although it is a non-gender-biased thought, I think there is still a problem in her statent...
Then everyone looked at .
"I've ... It doesn't matter if he's a man, he can have the sa strength as won, if he works hard he can even surpass most won..."
"Typical thought of a man..."
"Well, it's normal for a man to defend n by saying that they are equal to won..."
"Vremya... Mair...."
OKAY! Why do people look at like I'm saying words that would only be said in a genere collective?! Especially your Tikshna!
"Pff.. Forget it. I want to go eat sothing before combat class..."
"Okay, let's go to the main cafeteria"
"Yes, I'm still hungry..."
When I stood up, all the girls did the sa and we headed out of the room. But.
"Girls? Don't we have to wait for Magen and Destan?"
"Leave them alone Vremya, they are in their own world..."
Xifia, you're Magen's childhood friend...
So, without stopping, we headed south of the Academy.
The main cafeteria is located at the back of the school administration building, you have seen it when entering the Academy, but I have never entered. It appears to be two stories high and is larger than the café to the north. I know there are two other cafeterias, one near the main coliseum in the center of the Academy and one toward the east side of the Academy, in front of the teachers' building.
There are still many places in the Academy that I have not seen, but I have to spend about four years here. Maybe I'll find out all the secrets, hehe. Not that it was Hogwarts.
We were talking quietly, when a group of three girls stopped us halfway.
"Hello, Vremya Corinth, can I talk to you for a mont?"
Of the group of three girls, the one in the middle spoke. She's taller than , well all the girls are taller than , except for the short ones who are my height...
"Hello, sure, tell ..."
"Can this be in private?" The girl who spoke looked up at a grove of trees and said. I also turned to look at the grove that is next to the pedestrian path, it is not dangerous so I accepted.
"Well... Xifia, Dianeira, Tikshna, Kara, can you wait a mont?"
"Oh~ good"
"Mm..."
"We will be here"
"Scream if she does sothing to you!"
Well, I don't think they'll do anything to in public Dianeira... but I rembered Ragna... pfff...
Then I followed the girl who spoke to , the other two girls stayed together waiting the sa on the road.
The girl who spoke to is about 175 centiters tall, has light blue hair like the sky, skin as light as snow, and eyes that are just as blue as water. She wears a silver semi-armor and from what I've seen, she seems to be the kind of familiar who is a weapons, maybe a sword, since she dresses just like Ingrid.
When you turn to look at the other two girls, their armor is the sa, maybe they can be part of the silver knights...
When I reached the grove she stopped and confronted .
"Hello Mair Vremya Corinth, I haven't introduced myself, my na is Nerissa Morwenna, from the noble Morwenna family, who control the main fleet of the human kingdom..."
After a long presentation of his background, but she did not say his school grade, she finally got to the point...
"... I want to ask you to allow to woo you to be my wife."
Then she bowed in a chivalrous manner...
"Do you want to be your wife? Shouldn't you ask to be your girlfriend first? wait no, in any case i would be a husband or boyfriend"
"But before you are my girlfriend, I have to ask you first to allow to pursue you."
"Is this how it works? I thought first you ask to be a girlfriend and go out on dates and stuff, and then after a couple of years to get married, or maybe just a year of dating..."
"My Moms told that I couldn't force you, since with your high status it would be offending you, I should first ask you for permission to persecute you"
"Did your moms tell you that? Do you have two Moms?"
"Yes, isn't that normal? Oh sorry, it's true that you Vremya Corinth only have one mom, I apologize for my tongue slip..."
Then she bowed again, but this ti in apology...
This world is strange...
"Oh, don't worry about it... I can't give you permission to persecute ..."
"Don't you want to? Do you dislike it??"
"No, no, no, let finish... I can't control your actions, if you had asked to go out, then I can accept or refuse, but if you ask for permission for you to do sothing, that's not right..."
"They had said that you have a very different way of speaking from the other boys..."
"Are you telling I'm weird?"
"No, no, no, I apologize for my tongue slip..."
... seriously. Ok, I'd better guide the conversation or we won't get anywhere.
"Listen, Nerissa, can I call you that? You can call Vremya without honorifics."
"Yes, of course, it would be an honor!"
She bowed again, but this ti to give thanks...
"Cough, Nerissa, you don't need to ask my permission to do sothing you want to do... this, persecuting , courting , or things like that, but please don't take it to the extre..."
"Then I can!?"
"You didn't listen to ! Forget it..."
"May I have your Na so I can write to you?"
"eh? My na? You will tell my address to send letters"
"Well, the address would be fine, but when it's a magic na the letter can pass faster, since the address can be easily obtained and my letter can be destroyed if my na is not recognized..."
"Mmm, I understand, even if no one has ever explained it to before, or written a letter... What do I have to do?"
"Nobody has written to you? So will I be the first? That's great, this, just touch the feather and say your Na."
Nerissa took a feather out of her backpack, it has ornants and is very beautiful, it seems to shine sotis. So I did as she said, placed my palm on the feather in his hand and recited my full na.
I felt Nerissa shudder as I touched hers with my hand.
"Vremya Garneth Corinth... wow~"
The feather shone brighter than normal and then cald down. Nerissa looked pleasantly happy and excited. A light shone in his eyes, or so it seed.
"Thank you, then I'll write to you soon, and we can go out, right? Vremya"
"Go out? Uhnmm well, maybe I can arrange sothing..." It wouldn't be a bad thing to go out, I've never been out in the city, but I don't know if my mother would let go out... like with a girl she doesn't know.
"No matter what day, I will be available! Just tell when you can!"
You're being very complacent! In my previous world, I think girls would deduct points when a man acts like that, right?
"hehe~ well, shall we go back?"
"Yes, sure, thank you for your ti..."
Then she bowed again, this ti in gratitude... This girl likes to lean a lot, maybe it's her family upbringing...
Then we ca back together, then I went to my teammates while Nerissa went with the other two girls she ca with.
She showed them the feather, the girls were shocked and tried to snatch the feather from Nerissa's hands, but she quickly jumped back with leopard-like agility, and put the feather in her backpack.
Then she turned around and waved goodbye and made a sign to write with a pen in the air.
I just waved back and nodded. And she left with the other two girls.
"You gave your letter na that easily to an unknown woman?"
"If I had known what it was if I had easily asked you"
"It's true YOO, why don't I have your Letter Na!"
"Letter na, what is that?"
"EH? When did Destan and Magen arrive here?"
"How cruel, Vremya left behind and forgot about ... yoo~" Magen squatted down and started making circles on the ground with his right index finger with a sad look.
"Destan, as far as I know, is when you give it your full na, what you do is authorize soone to write you a letter and it easily reaches you without going through filters"
I ignored Magen and explained to Destan how little I know about the na of letters.
"Yes, in the past you could send trap letters and junk letters to random people just with their ho address, but then they invented the spells that filter these letters to eliminate them and can even catch the person who sent them..."
Xifia approached with a feather similar to Nerissa's, then Dianeira, Tikshna, Kara, and the raised Magen pulled out their feathers upon seeing Xifia's actions.
"Vremya Gar...." I repeated my na on each feather of the girls, Destan seems not to have one, and I don't have one either, but Xifia continued her explanation.
"... But then the problem began of having to write the nas of the senders of letters on the whitelist of the filter spells, so that the letters that the lady of the house recognizes can enter. But soone invented the network of letters na feathers, so it doesn't matter if you don't have a feather now or you lose the feather, by buying a new one you are already registered in the network in a link between two people and you can write letters with these feathers..."
The person who invented this is good... There is alchemy in the design of the feather and apparently the ink is a special magic potion. Also the spell network, according to Xifia, letters can be sent anywhere in the world.
The feather generates a kind of sparrow that will carry the letter to its recipient. But the farther away soone is, the more energy is consud. Each feather has a certain amount of energy and if it runs out it breaks, there is nothing left to do but buy another one.
But there are special, high-quality feather that can have more energy, and others that can be filled with your own energy to send the letters.
Although sending letters is not as fast as an email on the internet, it is definitely fast and secure.
More than ninety percent of letters arrive at their destination, and there is now a delivery notification system, so you can be sure if the letter has reached the recipient's hands or not.
But why hasn't Mom ever given one of these pens! Not even my sisters had told about this, no wonder sotis I see them writing with golden white pens, I always thought it was because they were snobbish girls, now I know that they corresponded with people directly through this network of Letters Nas!
