Exiting the room, Jay led us down to the first floor opening the double doors. It revealed a humongous room, well-lit with touches lined with innumerable tables and sofas. One side connected to a vast library the other leading to what seemed to be a games room.
"Surprisingly quiet." Jay said walking in.
"Yeah I think everyone is still recovering from the Demon Lord incident." Daisy added.
The room still contained some students, mainly small groups still looking slightly shaken from the whole ordeal, some even looking physically traumatized. Walking in some students looked at us and began chatting.
"Hmmm.... How comes everyone is Human except Daisy?" I asked Jay noticing everyone seemed to be human.
"That's because other races tend to stay with their own race and schools." Jay answered.
"Oh...." I replied, looking at Daisy worried she would feel alienated.
"Meh... I thought this place would lighten up the mood...." Jay said scratching his head.
"Let's just take a seat and chat then." I suggested walking to the sofa taking a seat.
"Sure." Daisy smiled following me taking a seat beside me and Jay on the other side.
'It was good to see her smiling again, I felt slightly worried for her seeing her in that other state base at the arena...' "So what's the world like?...." I asked Jay curiously.
"Hmmmm.... normal stuff really... Many different race some good some bad.... Many Creatures..... Legends.... myths....." He answered beginning to make a list.
"I'm sure there's compendium of Historic events and lists of monsters and myths in the library and we have History Class." Daisy added.
"Is that library?..." I pointed in the large area filled with book shelves and books.
"Kinda... that just basic books. If you want to read about broader things then the main library in the main building is where you want to go." Jay Answered.
"So do we all have the same classes together?..." I asked hoping.
"Yeah First years we only learn some basic spells and fundamentals and in the later years we can pick additional subject." Jay explained.
"That's great!!! Does that mean we are gonna be together?" I smiled.
"Yes we will." They both smiled.
"Ohhh ... By the way did I miss anything? While I was out.... I was gone for 2 days right?.." I asked
"Ohh yeah.... well remind me tomorrow, when we go to Basic Spell Casing class... So Professor Meha so you can get the Prismatic Pearl like the rest of us." He said.
"Ummmm... Okay?.... What's that?" I replied.
"It's a small pearl given to all students and throughout the day it will alter into the element you had an affinity to." Jay answered smiling.
"Yeah Jay's one became a small heated pearl, and mine became a shining golden pearl." Daisy explained.
"Yeah as we saw in the wand shop.... I had an affinity to fire and Daisy as an affinity to divine and holy magic." He further explained.
"Ohhh I see...." I replied.
"Other than that not much....the past few days were a bit relaxed as was spent getting to know the professor and other students to make friends." Jay explained.
"Ohhh okay... so what type of classes do we have?.." I asked.
"Hmmmmm on Morndas we have Basic Spell Casting, Herbalism and Alchemy. Tirdas we have History, Culture Studies Creature studies. Middas Basic Spell Casting, Herbalism and Alchemy again. Turdas Physical Training and Class Outing and on Fredas the most exciting day! Sparring and dueling! Loredas and Sundas are days off" Jay Answered.
"A whole day.... spend on sparring and dueling that's a bit much?..." I asked.
"Ummm... It's the only day when students can face and challenge other students to raise their battle rank. It's good to learn how to fight...." He replied.
"I guess you're right..." I pretended to agree, "By the way.... is Calista in our classes?..." I asked.
"Sadly she is, our year is only split up into two classes and sadly she is in our class..." Daisy gravely informed. "But it will be okay! she won't try anything if we've got your back!" Daisy said trying to cheer me up noticing me looking a little down.
".......... Ummmm what day was it today?..." I asked slightly confused, some reason I assumed they was going to use Monday - Sunday.
"Today is Tirdas." Daisy replied.
"Yup so we have Basic Casting Herbalism and Alchemy...tomorrow" Jay replied with a smile.
"Ummm... could I meet you guys in the morning?... I don't really know my way." I asked still slightly confused.
"Yeah sure!!!.. We'll meet you outside the dorm building?..."Daisy suggested.
"Yeah that will be awesome!" I replied with a smile.
A loud bell sound began to ring in my head, "Did u guys hear that?" I asked looking for the source of the sound.
"Ohhh that means Dinner is being severed in the Great Hall." Daisy said standing up.
Getting up we made our way to the great hall. "By the way do they serve vegetarian food?..." I asked.
"Hmmm not sure... Maybe?...." Jay replied leading the way.
"Can't we just magically create food and water?.." I asked.
"Umm you can.... but they aren't nutritious..... They don't sustain life." Jay answered.
"Oh...." I pretended to understand.
"Yah ... it may help you feel full or quench your thirst momentarily but you can't survive off magically created food or drink." Daisy tried to explain noticing my hesitant reply.
"Ohh I see now..." I replied sounding more confident.
The small walk to the great hall made me think about magical broomsticks as a faster mans of travel, "OMG do we get to ride on magical flying broomsticks?!!" I asked extremely excited.
They both looked at me in complete confusion....... "...... What plane do u come from?.... you guys ride on flying broomsticks?..." Daisy and jay asked.
"Yeah.... of course... you guys don't?...." I said trying to play it off like flying broomsticks is normal.
"Ohh.. okay.... Well that does sounds kinda cool..... But no we don't have flying broomsticks, most forms of travel is on horseback... or carriages... there's zeppelins for travel between major cities, and Ships for travel across sea and ports." Jay explained.
"Ohhhh..." I replied feeling a little down I won't get to experience flying.
Walking towards the Main castle building, the population of the school quickly became obvious, hundreds of students slowly making their way for dinner. Most being human, very rarely noticing some students aren't human.
Entering into the Main castle, the huge double doors directly in front of the main entrance was now open, revealing a grand hall. Magnificently large, filled with tables and benches with innumerable number of delicious foods with plates and cutlery. Well-lit with large long hanging chandeliers and torches lining the wall of the room.
"Ohhh there's a group of seats over there!!." Jay said grabbing both our hands pulling us quickly to them.
"Calm.. down... I'm sure there's room for everyone." I yelled as he pulling us to the free seats.
"Yeah of course but the later it gets the harder it is to find three seats free next to each other." Jay smiled taking a seat.
Taking the seat next to Jay and Daisy on the other side of him, I got a chance to look around. There were several robots walking up and down the aisles, holding plates of food and refilling drinks. It looked as if on the far other side of the hall was a separate table which I assume where the teachers were as I noticed several older looking men and women.
"Do you know if Scarlet or Paul... Eats here?..." I tried to ask Jay over the loud atmosphere.
"Yeah... they should be on the S rank and A Rank table." He replied looking up and pointed at a large separate table near the teachers table.
Looking into the distance, I noticed him next to Scarlet and Ashley talking and laughing thoroughly enjoying themselves. "Are we not allowed to sit with them?.." I asked Jay.
"There's no rule saying we can't but I think generally you have to be an A or S battle rank to be allowed to sit there." Jay responded and began devouring his food.
I began looking at the dishes looking for something I recognize or looks vegetarian, when sudden a shadow loomed over me. Turning around slowly, it was a robot that took the opportunity of the opening that formed, placing a plate of food in front of me and pulled out two more plates of food from its chest and placed them behind the first plate.
"Ohhh looks like someone told the Kitchen you have a special dietary requirement." A girl said beside me.
"I guess so..." I smiled, "Hi nice to meet you I'm Emilia." I introduced myself.
"Nice to meet you Emilia!, I'm Grace and this is my friend Helen." Grace introduced herself and her friend beside her, giving a wave.
"Ohhh... Nice to meet you, this is my friend Jay and Daisy." I replied leaning back to reveal Jay greedily scoffing down food and Daisy beside him.
Giving jay a small jab on the arm to catch his attention and poking Daisy in the back, "Guys this is Grace and Helen." I introduced them.
"Nice to meet you!" they both smiled waving at them.
"Are you a freshman?" Grace asked.
"Yes I am. Are you?" I asked in return.
"Yes me and Grace are both freshmen as well." they smiled.
"Have you two thought of what you guys wanna be?.." I asked curiously.
"Ohhhh... I want to be a ranger." Grace replied.
"I'm looking to become a druid." Helen answered.
Jay suddenly stopped eating hearing their response..... Turning to them with a mouthful of food, "Ohh wow a druid?!" He replied.
"Yes" she responded with a smile.
"What's a druid?..." I whispered into his ear.
"Are you?.... an Elf?...." He asked.
Helen smiled brushing back her golden blonde hair revealing her pointy ears with a smile.
"Ohhh wow... it's pretty rare to see an elf outside their own community...." He added.
"Yeah..... I wanted to see the world.... and Atlantis is quite accepting of other races." She said.
"Ohhh that's so cool....." Jay replied.
"Druids are spell casters like us except their spells lean towards nature and animal." Jay whispered into my ear.
"That's so cool!!!!" I said looking at her.
"Do you happen to be an Elf as well grace?" Im asked.
"Yes I am, me and Helen are from the same tribe, we are childhood friends." She answered.
"Ohhh that's cool" he replied.
Taking a quick peek at Daisy making sure she wasn't left out, it looked as if she was engaged in conversation with a young man sitting beside her. There was a young man sitting in front of me quietly eating his food, the two people beside him engaged in separate conversation. Noticing me looking at his slighting he looked up. "Nice to meet you I'm Emilia a first year." I smiled.
"Hi... Ummm..... I'm.... Patrick..." He quietly and nervously replied.
"Are you a first year also?..." I asked.
"Yes..." He replied quickly and went back to eating his food.
Not wanting to disturb him I went back to talking to Jay Grace and Helen. They were talking about Life in Elvish society.
"To be honest I wanted to stay in Morena, but Helen wanted to go exploring, so sadly here I am making sure she's safe." She said.
"Yes!!!! But we are gonna have a blast!!! and we've already made more friends than we did back home!!!" Helen said hugging her gleefully smiling.
"I hate you" Grace said to Helen begrudgingly.
"No you don't" Helen replied smiling swinging her side to side.
The dinner lasted hours, all the way till sunset, spending lots of time getting to know Grace and Helen as well as learning a bit more about Jay.

Helen said hugging her gleefully smiling."I hate you" Grace said to Helen begrudgingly."No you don't" Helen replied smiling swinging her side to side.The dinner lasted hours, all the way till sunset, spending lots of time getting to know Grace and Helen as well as learning a bit more about Jay.
