Getting out of the carriage, Freya walked directly towards the direction of that fee.
‘Entrance fee is five hundred gold coins, Noe, fill this out!’
Just walking to the table, the middle-aged man who was writing something said without lifting his head as he pushed a form in front of her.
‘......’
Somewhat speechless as she listened to the man explode the price, she frowned slightly, she had thought that an academy piled up with money would be more expensive, but she didn't think that just the entrance fee would be ridiculously expensive, it seems that the 5,000 gold coins given by Ariana was really prescient.
Moreover, that person didn't ask for anything other than popping in and out of the tuition fee, so I guess the Dragon Academy's leniency towards enrolment was at the bottom of the scale.
Fumblingly handing over the gold card that she had been asking for at her waist, Freya picked up the feather quill next to her and carefully filled out the form.
Soon, after filling out the form, she watched silently as the man skilfully deducted the amount on the gold card and took the completed form.
‘Your accommodation and food fees are already in there, tuition fees are paid in addition inside the academy, you follow the road straight inside and you'll be there, got it, take it, this is your proof of payment and the dormitory building you're arranged in.’
‘Got it.’ Freya nodded gently, looked at a white card the man handed over, and turned to walk back.
The top of the card was clear with her name and age, and below that was the room number of the dormitory building.
The horseman stood by the carriage waiting for her with a brown leather case, and watched her come over and greeted her with a quick step.
‘Miss, this is your luggage, inside the academy is not allowed for idle people to enter, so I can only send it to you.’
‘Hmm, then you go back.’ Freya nodded her head, she had seen some gorgeously dressed students entering the school on foot even when she was coming, so it seemed that there was this rule.
Receiving the leather case she watched the horseman skilfully get into the carriage until it disappeared at the intersection before turning towards the iron gate.
Formally entering the academy, what met her eyes was a huge flower bed, in the middle of which stood a golden statue of an old man holding a book, with a line of words underneath the statue.
Freya walked over and took a glance, it read, In memory of the first headmaster of Dragon Academy: Marzaha. Windigo. (1514-1581.)
The simple and plain inscription only introduced the name and date and nothing else, which made Freya raise an eyebrow.
Without giving it much thought, she withdrew her gaze, behind the flowerbed was a straight main road, on both sides of the road was a green grass that could be stepped on, a few large trees were casually erected there, and occasionally students could be seen walking underneath the trees.
Not far away was the white school building and a few other huge buildings whose purpose was unknown.
Compared to the monetary atmosphere of this academy, the style of Gargoyle Academy could also be called simple with a strong campus atmosphere.
Walking all the way along the main road, Freya noticed that the students of this academy did not have consistent uniforms, and that the students among them were dressed in different grades and ages.
Mentally following what the man had said, she soon arrived at the teaching building at the very front, in the hall, many newly enrolled students were gathered inside, and at the very back of the hall was a huge sign with a course fee schedule, and underneath the sign was the academy teacher who was charging the fee.
Freya narrowed her eyes slightly at the words above the sign, she found that the courses in the Dragon Academy were many and varied, but uniformly the fees were all expensive.
‘’Art: 10 gold coins a lesson, Tactics: 20 gold coins a lesson, Language (multiple): 15 gold coins a lesson, Fighting: 20 gold coins a lesson, History: 15 gold coins a lesson, Swordsmanship: 20 gold coins a lesson...‘’ there was a big row of them.
Freya looked at the things on it, so many courses both in terms of time and energy obviously one person can't learn all of them, surely the students should pick the ones they want to learn on their own.
In addition to these courses, she also found a line of large eye-catching words below.

‘’Rudin Imperial Capital Academy Recommendation Quota Conditions: new students who achieve excellence in four subjects and pass the examination will be given the opportunity.‘’
The number of recommended places was not specified at the back, but it was also certain that not all of them would be recommended as long as they passed the examination.
After a little thought, she decided to enrol in her best subject to gain a chance.
‘Then... the four subjects of Swordsmanship, Languages, History, and Tactics.’
Deciding on the ones she chose, she directly paid the tuition for a year's time.
Walking out of the hall with the proof of payment and her gold card, the outside was still filled with new students walking by one after another.
After a short pause, she dragged her suitcase and followed the signs to find her dormitory building.
The female dormitory building is not far from the teaching building, at this time the whole building is filled with young noisy sounds, this Freya feels like returning to the former campus, most of the dormitory building's room doors are open, some wearing wide silk pajamas of young girls playfully passing Freya.
Silently, she found her own room and opened the door.
The room was separate and affordable for the accommodation paid for, though the bed and desk and chair, took up most of the space.
Apart from being a little small, there wasn't much to be picky about.
Putting the suitcase on the desk, he took out his usual civilian clothes and changed into them, and hung the cross sword directly on the wall after rubbing it with maintenance oil.
Now in the academy, there was no restriction on carrying weapons, but I didn't think I'd be needing them for a while.
After pushing open the window and letting the room air out, she casually closed the door and stepped out of the room, deciding to go out for a walk to familiarise herself beforehand.
The official teaching time was the day after tomorrow, so there was no restriction on the students' free movement during this time.
Casually walking along the path of the academy, she was still dressed in a long white dress, with her black boots exposed along with her handsome appearance, causing some of the youthful teenagers to glance at her.
Although she didn't carry a crossed swords, but that deliberately suppressed icy cold aura, let these little guys although have the heart to want to accost her, but don't have the guts to match it, just whispered speculation about Freya's origin.
Not caring about the whispers of the people around her, her eyes narrowed slightly as she looked towards the black building not far away.
‘The Elgrim Library.’
She softly read out the sign above the gate.
When she first came to this world, she also read history books borrowed from this library, and although she didn't return them in the end, her unforgettable memory still made her remember that it was this library that she hadn't mistaken.
At this time the door of that library was open, and there were still figures swaying inside.
Without thinking too much, she directly walked over with big strides.
The purpose of coming to the academy was to find information on how to solve the after-effects, and now that she saw the library, of course she had to go in and take a look.
Just as she entered the library, she smelled a faint scent of ink and looked around.
Discovering that this library was astonishingly large in both space and book collection.
Rows and rows of black and red bookshelves were erected there, lined up with all sorts of books, and just by sweeping her eyes a little, she felt a kind of admiration from the bottom of her heart.
Although Rudin's management of books and other knowledge was very strict, this was a far cry from Byronby.
One must know that the former Green Castle had only accumulated such a small collection of books over such a long period of time, and compared to this place, it simply could not be looked at.
Just so big library, at this time to see the books of people but only two or three, only a handful, but also and her heart.
‘Young man, what kind of books are you looking for?’
Just as she was thinking about where to start looking, a low and hoarse voice suddenly rang out from her ears, and the icy airflow seemed to be uttered just by her ears...
