Chapter 4: The Opening Ceremony

“Good morning Freshmen and welcome to Edelweiss Academy, I am Kawakami Momoka(川上 桃花) the current student council president and a third year of the Asentas Division. From Today on you all are students of Edelweiss Academy and we expect all of you to work hard in order to attend the Grand Scale tournament and bring victory to our school. On behalf of the student council we once again welcome you to the school.’

“Now with the introductions done, I will now perform a demo of the different types of magics to give you an idea on what you are gonna be dealing with throughout your journey here. We will start with the most versatile magic branch, Elemental.

“Elemental Magic allows the user the bend the natural phenomenon to a certain degree to their wills. The magic comprises of the elements of Terra(Earth), Ignis(Fire), Aqua(Water),Aero(Air), Electricity, Light and Dark.”

“Through the nature, grant my will and bind my enemies - Earth Bind!”

The mannequin that was set on stage was bounded in an instant.

“That is the basic restraining spell for the earth element.”

“Fire Dance within my hand and strike down my enemies - Fireball!”

The fireball impacted the mannequin causing it to explode, scattering embers into the air.

“Water, obey thy will and protect the innocent! - Water Barrier!”

A water barrier was formed across the stage preventing the embers from endangering the students sitting in the front row.

“As you can see, elemental magic is quite versatile providing offensive, defensive and utility to user.”

“Moving on, I will be demonstrating a summoning spell.”

“Come forth and assist me in my time of need! Summon!”

A small magic circle appears before Momoka and an adorable little kitten with a lion’s mane appeared from the magic formation.

“As you can see the summoning spell will call forth beings that will obey your commands, however, this beings each have their own magical level, if you summon a high-level being without the appropriate strength you might not be able to control it causing them to rampage. Higher level beings can be tamed by either building a strong bond with them or providing them an appropriate compensation or higher magical power. A tamed summon can be released and it will return to wherever they came from.”

“ Next, I will be demonstrating the support magic.”

“Grant me the blessings of the war gods! - Enchant Power!”

“Fireball!”

A blue fireball bigger and more coarse than the prior one was formed.

“The support spell enchanted the power of the fireball making it bigger and stronger.”

“If you noticed I did not recite a chant before casting fireball, this technique is called chant nullification and if you guys work hard and train yourselves, you will be able to do it too.”

“Support magic not only buffs people but also increases the natural recovery rate of the human being. I will now injure myself with a blade of light.”

“Light Blade!”

Momoka then picks up the blade with her right hand and grabs the blade of light tightly with her open palm, causing blood to flow from her hand.

“I request the aid of the goddesses to help cure the innocent and the injured! - Heal!”

Momoka’s wounds on her palms healed in an instance closing up the cut she had from the blade of light.

“Next I will show you my contracted spirit, a spirit will approach you if they find you a suitable contractor for them. You can only contract a spirit once, so make sure to build a lasting bond with them.”

“Come forth Regulus!”

A rift appeared behind Momoka and a Giant Lightning attribute lion 2 meters tall and 4.2 meters in length appeared from it.

“This is my contracted spirit Regulus, currently he is resized as he reaches a height of 5 meters and 10.4 meters in length he is one of the higher ranked spirits so he is very strong. You build bonds with the Spirit and this will allow the spirit to grow and increase in power. Spirits are able to materialise completely on their own once they grow strong enough compared to summoning where magic power is required to be constantly provided for them to materialise in our realm. Spirits are generally stronger than summons but you can only have one of them compared to summoning.”

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

“As the auditorium does not hold enough space, I sadly cannot show you any skills that Regulus have.”

“Thank you Regulus you may go back now.”

In response to that, Regulus created another rift in space and proceed through it, disappearing completely.

“The magic that focuses on Transmutation Alchemy is not suited to combat but the products created by alchemy are very useful, New metals stronger than normal metals can be created, examples are mithril which made up the skylight train that you guys took to arrive here. Alchemy is also used to create potions that can heal wounds and strengthen someone among other users, but due to the environment here it is not suitable for Alchemy, hence, we will not be demonstrating them.”

“MagiTech is the art of combining magic with modern technology, I will not go too indepth into it as the explanation is pretty long and boring, but an example of products created with MagiTech is the arca all of you are currently wearing.”

“What I just demonstrated are the basics of the magic that you will be learning and are just to give you an idea on what you are going to be learning at Edelweiss Academy, I wish you all will learn much from here and will strive to constantly improve yourselves.”

“Now that’s all said and done, the Headmaster will give us a final speech before you guys are dismissed to your classes.”

Saying that Momoka walked off the podium and left the stage.

“Good morning students, once again I welcome you all into Edelweiss academy… I see that we have many beautiful and sexy females entering. *Smirk*

“HEADMASTER!!” a dark aura loomed behind the student council president as she re enters the stage.

“Ah... Momoka I see your breasts have gotten bigger again.”

“WH-WH-WHAT?!?!” she started chanting a high level spell with an extremely annoyed face and a magic formation appears above the headmaster glowing brighter as the chant progresses. (http://imgur.com/a/PsG1C) <----- It's the expression of Momoka. 

“Darkness blacker than black and darker than dark,

I beseech thee, combine with my deep crimson.

The time of awakening cometh.

Justice, fallen upon the infallible boundary,

render all hope of rebirth and anguish, and the model by which all forces are judged!

I desire for my torrent of power a destructive force:

a destructive force without equal!

Return all creation to cinders,

and come from the abyss!

Lance de Soleil!!”

The students immediately panicked, scattering themselves in all directions while screaming, trying to get as far away from the explosion as possible.

As soon as Momoka chant ended, the magic formation condensed and became smaller before a beam of light was shot from the magic formation. When the beam of light impacted the headmaster, the entire auditorium was dyed in white and a strong gust of wind blasted through the area throwing everyone inside backwards.

The entire auditorium was shrouded in dust and visibility was close to zero. As the dust began settling, a faint blue glow could be seen from the direction of the stage. When the visibility of the area began improving, a blue domed barrier could be seen covering the entire section of the stage. Within the barrier was a giant crater where the stage used to be and the Headmaster standing there perfectly fine but covered in dust and soot.

“HOOOOOHHHHHHH! As expected of our student council president she certainly is strong…!” (Akira)

“Hmph!” Shigeo pushed up his glasses while staring seriously at the scene in the auditorium.

“Kaori is amazed, Kaori wants to do that too! When will Kaori learn how to do it?!”

“Tchh… He should have just drop dead right there and then. What is that student council president doing?” (Airi)

Kasumi scrambles to a corner and pulls her hood down once again covering her face.

“What a strong attack! I want to take that on with my body someday!” 

“If you’ve got a death wish than be my guest, that headmaster is clearly abnormal.” 

“Don’t care!” 

*sigh* 

Shigeo gives a short sigh at the stupidity of Nori as he pushes up his glasses.

Hiroshi began to walk towards Kasumi intending to comfort her.

“Hayakawa-san? Are you alright?”

“A-Akisada-san!?”

Kasumi covers her face with her hoodie even more being flustered from Hiroshi’s approach towards Kasumi.

“I saw you being startled by the explosion. Are you alright?”

“Ye-Yeah”

“Shall we head back to the viewing area?”

“Sure”

Kasumi trailed Hiroshi back to the viewing area where Kasumi still kept a distance away from Hiroshi.

Using magic to clean himself the Headmaster proceeded to address the auditorium once again.

“Alright back to my original intention of being here, I shall now start my-”

*Ding*

“Alright! Just in time!”

“It looks like the irresponsible one just showed up. Talk about ‘being on time’.”

Everyone in the Asentas Division stares at the newly arrived student blankly.

“Nani~?”

“Where have you been for the past 20 minutes?”

“Eto~… I saw this cute fluffy cat at the fountain plaza. It was so fluffy I wanted to hug it. So~ I decided to catch it but it kept running away. But~ after I caught it I got lost…, so I wandered around the school trying to find this entrance~~”

“HUHHHHHHH?!?!?!?”*Everyone Else*

“What’s wrong~??”

“What’s wrong?! You are twenty minutes late and you don’t even realize it?!”

“Really~?”

“What’s even your name?!”

“Kishi~Riko~(騎士 莉子)desu~, please take care of me from now on~.”

*clap* *clap*

“Now that you are familiar with one another, let’s proceed with classes now.”

A mysterious woman appears in the middle of the lounge.

Author's note:Well, the chanting were meant to be in the font Pinyon Script, but sadly RoyalRoadl does not support other fonts. As such we've tried to compensate it with Italics. 

WOOOOHOOOOO KASUMI! ILLUSTRATION OF HER!!!!!!!!!! (http://gerrage.deviantart.com/art/Hayakawa-Kasumi-685899709?ga_submit_new=10%3A1497216885&ga_type=edit&ga_changes=1&ga_recent=1)
