After exiting the courtyard where the teleportation gates were held, Leo found himself on a stone path that led past a few tall buildings about six floors high. They were all made of large carved white stones. There were many students walking about, all wearing the Academy uniforms.

The Academy had a uniform that all students had to wear while within the Academy grounds. There was also a band that wrapped around the left upper arm. This band could be seen in different colors and designated your current Card Master rank. Yellow was F-rank, Orange was E-Rank, Red was D-Rank, Green was C-Rank, Blue was B-rank, and Silver was A-Rank.

The grounds outside the buildings were lightly decorated with grey stone statues of monsters and flower beds with different colored flowers. Even with the chattering of the passing students who took their chances to sneak a peek at the newcomers, the area gave off a peaceful feeling. A good environment for learning.

Elder Lancaster left to report in while Elder Hill took everyone else to get registered. They soon arrived at a large building with two tall wooden doors. Next to the doors on the right was a sign that read: Administration.

“We will stop here first to register you. Afterwards I will bring you to your dorms and point out the important areas. You will be going to an assembly in the morning so after you settle in and change, you can explore the campus as you like. Just do not be late in the morning. The assembly will be held in the building next to this one.” Elder Hill explained a few more details before bringing the group in to get registered.

The registration process was quite simple. You were asked your name, age, where you originated from, and your clothing size. For monsters, they asked what kind it was and its name. When Leo mentioned his Rock Salamander, he was given a look of pity before the information was written down. Everyone was given a key to their rooms, and two sets of uniforms and sent on their way.

After getting registered, Elder Hill brought Leo and the others to their dormitory. Along the way, he made sure to point out the assembly hall so that they would not have an excuse to skip the new student assembly.

When they arrived at the dormitory, Elder Hill entered and pointed at the two halls on each side of the main hall. “The right hall leads to the cafeteria, which is open until the last bell and opens at the second bell. There is a stairwell that leads directly down to the cafeteria. Make sure you pay attention to the direction your room is located so you can find it easily. Otherwise, you will need to make your way through the training area, which is down the left hall, to get to where you want to be. Of course, each door leading into the stairwell will be marked, so if you can not read, it is your own fault.

“You can also take the main staircase if you wish as well.” Elder Hill pointed to the spiral staircase in front of them that rose up into the ceiling, surrounded by four pillars. To accommodate many students there was no extravagance. Every bit of space that could be used was being used. Only the front hall was slightly open, with a few benches to sit on.

“Your key is marked with a floor number and a room number. Something like 4-17. The four being your floor and the seventeen being your room. I wish you luck. I need to go report now as well. I do hope to see you all tomorrow.” With that, as if running away, Elder Hill left the dorms, leaving the others standing there.

“Leo which room number do you have? Mines floor five room twenty one.” Jack was hoping to have the same room as Leo.

“Mine’s floor six, room thirty two. Looks like we are separated by a floor.” Leo looked over at Jasmine, who only snorted and ignored the two boys, walking toward the spiral staircase and ascending it.

Leo realized that Jasmine now wanted nothing to do with them. “Ignore her let’s go.”

“Still, we are from the same village she could at least play along.” Jack was kind of depressed. ‘I would have still liked to have been friendly…’

“Forget it Jack. If you need anything just come find me. We have been friends since we were born. Just because we are in the village won’t change this fact.” Leo tried to cheer Jack up, which seemed to work since he put on a bright smile.

“You’re right! Forget her. Let’s go settle in.” Jack was glad Leo also passed the test. This meant they were able to become Card Masters together, and he had at least one person here he could rely on. Of course, this went both ways. Jack was willing to help Leo in any way he could.

The two climbed the stairs up to the fifth floor, where Leo said goodbye to Jack before continuing up to the sixth floor. “Hmm? So there is a sitting area here to.”

Leo looked at the white stone walls that were bare of any decoration and then at the couches that were placed around the stairwell in between the pillars. At each corner of where the halls were was a potted plant. And above the archway leading down the halls was a sign that said, East Wing or West Wing. Alongside it was the room numbers that could be found there.

“Alright, so the stairwell that leads directly to the cafeteria is down my hall.” Leo made sure to note this as he passed a few male students who had orange bands on their arms sitting on one of the couches talking. They only took a glance at him before ignoring him.

Leo did not disturb them either. He continued down the hall until he found his room, where he inserted his key and opened the door. He had only just taken a step inside and closed the door before freezing in place. The first thing that came out of his mouth when he saw the scene in front of him was, “Meow…”

A pair of pink panties with a cat head shape imprint on the back that were slightly pulled down past the rump of the snow-white skin attached to the thigh and partial cheek of the girl standing there staring back at him.
