1 Her first day

[Attention! Students, please go inside your assign rooms. The first day of school is going to begin, welcome to Marigold Magic Academy!]

The hallways field with students earlier turns into a quiet one. Everyone followed what the speaker said, full of excitement. There are thirty students each rooms, and there are ten classrooms divided into three category.

First two classrooms are for Rank S wizards, or those who are excellent in using magic already. The next two to four are for Rank S knights, or those who students who are good in combat. Rooms seven to ten are for ordinary human chosen by the tree of eternal knowledge, lucky enough to enter the magic world.

Everyone were in the same uniform, wearing a maroon coat made from the petals of a flower only seen in the world of wizards called Aphiloskha or the flower of elegance.

The students under the Rank S, Class One classroom were busy showing off their skills against each other while waiting for their class adviser. Some performed simple manipulation magic and some can do average magic. The whole room was filled with cheers and laughs not until an Old woman with pointed nose, dark eyes, and dark lips came with a wand on her hand. All of the boys went back to their seats silently.

She smiled. A smile that looks terrifying, "You must be having fun while I'm not yet here?"

Even if this old lady is showing a huge smile on her face, everyone see it as a warning. No one dared to speak nor open their mouth.

"Now to formally start our class, one by one must stand here in front. Tell us your name and your specialty, if none then there's none, don't make lies!" the old lady burst into a loud laugh before her face looks serious. She suddenly rise in the air fly up to the back of the room. Vines grow from the ground and form a chair where the she sat down, "Okay start!"

The first boy sitting near the door introduced himself then everyone followed. Some mentioned interesting specialty like the japanese looking boy named Dom who can perform blinding magic. A small guy named Con can double his size or even triple. others can do a basic telepathy magic, while some said they are good in explosive magics. lastly, a handsome tall guy stand up from his seat and walked in front, he's more relaxed than the others.

"Hello everyone, I'm Natee Yuthakorn. I can perform a simple healing magic, level 2 telekinesis magic, transportation magic, fighting magic like Bonita (harmful spark) and Alita (lights in the form of thorns" everyone gave him a round of applause while watching him go back to his seat.

The old lady who showed a bored expression that seems like his not impress with their skills at all rise up in the air again straight to the front of everyone.

"Okay. now let me introduce myself, I'm madam Grace, your adviser for the whole year and teacher for the Literature of Magic!"

Madam Grace is 97 years old woman, known for her thick brows and bird like pointed nose. She a lumpy short woman wearing a red robe and glasses. Some of the boys in the class were warned by their brothers and sisters about her blunt jokes and labeled her the "No jam madam".

[Attention Madam Grace, another student is coming to your class, please welcome him] the mysterious speaker said, making the old woman scratch her head.

Later on, a tall guy is standing in front of the room until he was given the sign to come in. He stand next to Madam, and she whispered something to him. The late guy nodded, "Hello everyone. I'm Simon Everest Metapond from the Philippines, I can do elemental magic"

After done introducing his self, the late comer sat next to Natee as an additional seat sprung from the ground as the old lady casted a spell.

Natee smiled at him before offering him his hand, "Hi I'm Natee!" the taller guy waited for the last one to respond but Simon just gave him a smirk.

Simon lean his back on the chair, crossing both arms on his chest, listening to scary woman speaking in front not minding his action towards his friendly seatmate. Competition, he sees everyone as his competitors.

After the Literature of Magic, another lumpy figure entered the room but this time, it's a guy. A man with thick beard on his face as thick as his brows and hair. He brought nothing with him like wands or books, he came empty handed.

He unleashed a loud cough that shaken the whole room and made the boys quiet, "Hello hello!"

This man is wearing a robe same with teacher before him. He tap the floor three times with his shoe and what happened next amaze the freshmen. There's a sudden crack below him, rocks float out of it while spinning on the air until it formed a table. Then he snapped his fingers and a tray of snack appeared at the top of it. Everyone was clapping their hands.

"I'm Professor Porsche, and I'm your elemental magic professor" a huge smile appeared on his face, "Since it's the first day of school, I will let you to do what you want. Is that okay?" everyone extremely agreed.

The class was split into different circle of friends. A group composed of three, of five, of nine, of two people and there's also someone alone.

"Aish, Dom I want to eat cake!" Natee exclaimed while clinging to the boys shoulder.

"I told you already that my spell is not in good condition right now" the japanese looking guy named Dom said pushing his face far from him.

"Please please!" Natee pouted wrapping his arms around the latter's waist not allowing him to escape.

"Stop already or else I will tell everyone your secret" the annoyed guy whispered.

Natee let go of him and focus his attention to the lonely guy beside him. The cold looked back at him frowning before raising an eye.

"What?" he said calmly.

"Can you make a cake appear here right now? I'm really hungry" the tall guy pouted, acting cute to the person who rejected him earlier today, "I'll pay you"

Simon hesitated at first before a smirk appear on his blank face, "How much?"

"One chocolate cake will do"

"I mean the money you're paying me?"

Natee chuckled. He place his chin at the top of his hands while elbows on Simon's table, "490 baht"

"...600" but Natee disagree, "Okay then no cake"

Natee looked at him with teary eyes, but he realized it won't affect his seatmate. He leaned on his chair while frowning. The tall guy can hear his stomach complaining, telling him to just accept the deal so that he can finally eat.

"Okay 600 baht" he frowned making Simon smile at him.

The clever guy uttered a level one creation spell named "bevijin", a two sentence spell that allows you create something from nothing. Then tiny amount of wind, water, and soil started hurling on his desk that excites the hungry person. It formed two layers of chocolate flavored cake with chocolate chips around it. Natee jaw drop.

"You're so cool!" he exclaimed before getting a slice of it, but before he shove it to his mouth, Simon clenched his arms tightly.

He's frowning, "Pay first before you eat" the shorter guy is squeezing his arm making him groan.

Natee was surprised of the other guy's strength, "It hurts. here's the money, can I eat now!?"

The clever guy smirked before putting the money inside his pocket. Nothing is free in this world, everything has its price.

"Awh, Dom let's play outside!"

It break time already. Natee, Simon and Dom was left inside the room. Natee is someone who gets bored easily, luckily he has a friend like Dominic who's ready to have fun with him.

"Wanna go out too?" Natee asked the other one who's busy reading but he shake his head.

"Okay"

Dom is a hyper kid but not as hyper as the tall guy. He's somehow weak unlike the other boys but he can go along them. He is a japanese looking guy with fair glass skin.

Natee and Dom run around, playing with each other till they run out of breath. They take a rest first while watching other boys play at the field.

"We played like we're still high school students" Natee laughed before drinking water.

Dom is the first person Natee met today. This tall guy went early today in excitement and saw nothing else except Dom. They had a light conversation earlier today, sharing secrets and getting to know each other.

"Dom, how old are you when you learn magic?"

Dom looked at him with head a bit tilted, looking confused but then he smiled. He sighed, "I'm 9 years old when my parents taught me magic. how about you?"

The tall guy smiled, "I learn it by myself after finding the book mom was hiding inside his room. They're always busy so I have to do it myself"

Time passes by so fast that it's time to go home already. There are different places you can end up to once you step out of the gate. Some ended at a photo booth inside the mall, a telephone booth on the street, or street number 7, 11, 17, and 18. If your parents own a car, or if they're going to fetch you? they can wait outside Street 17 and 18. This secret path are protected by the enchantment of Wen and Dee, Identical twins known for their dedication to protect the school a hundred of years ago.

"How's school?"

"It's fine and it's fun!" Rain exclaimed while playing with her phone. Her parents went to the mall to buy clothes for her, clothes that a college boy wear. then they fetched Rain outside street 18.

"Learned something?"

She nodded, "Scary looking old woman Madam Grace had a serious discussion immediately"

Her mom and dad laughed that made him confuse, "Why?"

"It's funny to know that the fearless madam didn't change at all"

from what dad said, I can conclude immediately that they became her students before. If no then how can they say that?

"It's quite strange that you two are not busy today?" she asked while her presence is on her phone.

"We want to check your first day in that school, I'm a bit worried you can't go along with the boys"

She smirked, "Don't worry about me mom"
