The Opening Ceremony

"I didn't expect so many people. Wasn't this academy for geniuses only?" Dante remarked as he observed the individuals in the grand hall, with several chairs filled. It resembled an opera house with a stage.

"Yes, it seems like there are many geniuses, if that's the case, or were these just extravagant stories?"

"Looks like we'll be isolated."

"It's better than being the center of attention," said Sara, and they both headed towards the referenced location: one of the last rows where there were hardly any students.

"Kids are too noisy... especially those who call themselves geniuses. I don't want to get involved in their lives, and I hope they do the same with mine."

These were their honest thoughts as they listened to various parallel conversations, all leading to a single conclusion: the heirs were supposed to be intimidating.
