As Quinn walks along the path towards the south side of the building everyone can be seen following their teachers.
"Hey Max what classes are you going to take?" Kami looks at Max with curious look.
"Well I have to take at least Inner Elements 101 and Magic Construction, but beside that I'm not too sure." Max putting his hand on chin rubbing it.
"Wait your taking Inner Elements doesn't that mean you have an inner element?" Kami looks at Max with a Surprise look. Sophie listening to the conversation also has a look of surprise .
"I mean I do but don't all you nobles also have inner elements?" Max asks Kami
"Only a select few have natural inner elements most are artificial, I'm also guessing yours is artificial as well right?" Kami nods as if she just solve a puzzle.
"No I'm sure mine's natural." Max states as if it 's the simplest thing in the world.
"Are you serious is it kinetic, illusion or even maybe even both?" Kami asks Max with great curiosity like a little kid. Sophie can also be seen looking at Max with a curios look as well.
"Kinetic, Illusion, both? What in the world are you taking about, all I know is that I have an inner element. Now do I know how to use it nope but that's why I'm have to take Inner Elements 101. You also went on about like rare for natural aren't all you nobles suppose to have a higher chance then us commoners?" Max shoots backs questions at Kami
"I mean yes we do but your a commoner so how do you know you have an inner element. About Kinetic Illusion what I mean by that is like umm… Let's say you have ice as your inner element just for example sake. With your element you pull a pure form of the element for ice this could be different for everyone. With Kinetic Inner element you are able to summon a physical form of your element. For ice it may be a ice cub a sphere a triangle or even a stick. For everyone it's different but they will be able to mold this element to their bidding, that's the power of kinetic. Now let's say you have illusion now this works a little more on the weird side. For ice you be able to make a the water on a river all ice or Harding your body to be like ice. But if you have both you are able to either or now the only issue with this is that you can only do one or the other. You can't do both at the same time unless you use instruments of magic." When Kami was explaining inner elements the students were already a the doors of the castle.
"Wow I never knew that inner elements were so complex, it's like a whole new ballgame from what i fought. Wait do all nobles know all this?" Max hoping what he thinks isn't true
"Most nobles know more then i do but this is the basic information."
"So you guys has an head start, argh." Max shoulders drop and his head nods down.
Sophie walks around to Max and pats him on the back as if she's saying it's ok.
"Thanks Sophie, I'm good now." Max saids to Sophie as he raises his head.
At this point and time the students are walking through the hallway along the hallways are white pearl like shiny walls. Each with a color stripe along the edges that radiant a low golden hue. The floors give off a grey white still being the same sparkle the walls give. Many rooms as they pass can be seems each different from the last. So far they seem what looks like a homeroom, a chemistry room, and a theater room. At this point no one is talking for everyone is taking in all of the school for many it's the first time here. Even for those that have been here still haven't everything nor as a student before.
Everyone starts to filter into the A-2 as they enter into the room everyone first notice how the seats are set up in threes along with rows and rows that can fit up to 40 students.
"There's no assign seating please just go ahead a pick a spot if you want to group more desk together go ahead just make sure it flows with the rest of the class." Quinn states after we all get into the room.
"Let's take these seats." Max points towards the far right of the room where only one more set of seats before they hit the wall.
"Sure why not." Kami approves as well as Sophie who nods
"Cough. It seems that everyone has found their spots so we can get start then. For you don't know who I am my name is Quinn Hover, national duelist of Greater Kansas. Now yet me go over some ground rules for you that don't know. We know that tension between each nation can get tough, so if you ever were to get into a fight with another student you are allow to request a duel. Now this duel needs to be approve by us teachers so if you are caught fighting with out permission then you will face point reduction during quarter exams. For those that don't know what those are they are exams to make sure you are still strong enough to be in the school. For all of you understand that the reason this school is here to develop our youths of each nation to face Hollow. As you know the Hollow over the last 20 years have been targeting our space stations and artificial moons. We need our youths of each nation to be to be ready to face the Hollow at any point. For that I hope that you chose your classes not based on coolest but instead of how much it will help you on the battlefield." Quinn let's these words sit in the air as every student there remembers the real reason they are there. To protect earth, to not be lose earth, and to protect our love ones. These are the real reason we come here.
'Not to be that guy but Mr. Hover but I've never really care about those Hollow. I mean what have they been doing for the last 20 years, attacks only our moons and space stations. Space Pirates do that already so why do they even attack us I mean they just wasting lives to waste. I think those Hollow are bad guys but are they really that big of a threat. Maybe one day I'll see one but right now I couldn't care less for them.' Max thinks

"Well off that note let's get right into some other things. For one, each and everyone of you will be living in the dorms. You will also be getting watches that are like you UN ID, you will need them everywhere you go. They will also have a map of the school a chat function a time function and announcements." Quinn looks around the room to make that everyone understood, seeing no hand he starts to hand out the watches.
'These watch's are really cool they reminded me of a James Bond watch or even a Rolex.'
Max taking good look at the watch notice that the face isn't electric rather it's physical with runes running a muck the watch.
"Now that you have your watches were going to go over the different classes each of you can take. For your core classes we have Magic construction and Hollow tactics. Magic construction is a class where you get to build your own spells along with building up you grimore. This class will teach you what affinity you have what are the best combinations for spells, and how to fight using spells. Hollow tactics will be a class going over how to fight Hollow, what their tactics are, and learn about the the culture of Hollow. If you have an Inner Element you would also have to take Inner Elements 101. In this class you get to learn how to control your Inner Element, you learn what type you have how to use it in the best way. Now there are two different type of Inner Elements I'm sure many of you know. Artificial and Natural, Artificial as in the name is when a mage uses magic gems or natural treasures to boost one's affinity to a Natural level. Artificial are usually lower quality compare to their natural counterparts, but this is not true all the time for some natural treasures can surpass natural. So even if you are artificial don't feel too bad for even if you are weaker how you use it is most important. These are all the core classes but have many more classes that anyone can join. There are material arts classes, flying classes, familiar classes, alchemy classes, spec ops classes, and even music classes for those that use sound magic. So worry not for there should be a class that suits your needs. Now your only allow 5 classes in total and as you become an upperclassmen you may pick up a tutor to which you can sub a slot for this instead."
As Quinn looks around the room to see each of the students he sees how many are whispering discussing which class their going to take.
"Now I'm going to pass around a sheet you need to filled out for your classes. It has info on each class and you need to fill it out to take the class. You have an hour get started."
Immediately the classroom get full of talking as everyone is trying to find out what class each other are taking.
"Hey Max my parents already signed me up for classes same as Sophie so we can both help you if you want." Kami similes at Max
"huh." Sophie nods in agreement.
"Well then can you tell me about familiar classes." Max's asks
"There are 2 familiar classes you can take you is based on land born familiars and the other is based on air born familiars. Now before you can take those two you need to spend one month on familiar 101 so you can learn the basics. Both me and Sophie are in taking the familiar course." Kami says
"Y...You should take it Max." Sophie says in a tiny but very soft voice that Max could hardly hear.
"Ok then I think I will, I hope I can summon something like a dragon." Max looks up to the sky as if he can already see a the dragon flying around him as his pet.
"Stop dreaming it's not like your going to get a dragon me on the other hand I'll be getting the best familiar just you watch." Kami snorts at Max like if he's a little kid.
"Tch, can't you just let me hope and dream." Max retorts.
"W.. What are you going to pick next." Sophie again says in cute and tiny voice.
'Ahh she's so cute too bad she really shy or I might thought about asking her out.' Max thinks as he looks at Sophie.
"Well let me think about that for a moment." Max then puts his hand on his chin and closes his eyes.
'So right now I have Magic Construction, Inner Elements, Hollow Tactics, and Familiar 101. Magic Construction is good for spell slinging and ranged. Inner Elements let's me use my magic when every I need whether it's kinetic or Illusion. Hollow Tactics will be good for my brain to learn how to work well on the field. Familiar 101 let's me have a way to divide the attention of an opponent and give me company. It seems the only think I don't have is me. I can use magic, inner elements and a familiar but do i even know how to use my self in a fight. I guess Jimmy got a taste of it in middle school.' Max snickers 'Well it guess it leaves me to one conclusion a martial art class it is.'
"Ok I'm going to take a martial art class." Max concludes
"Sounds good." Kami says
"Now I only got to pick what to chose." Max looks down at the paper and sees the classes.
"Hmm I can pick Hand to Hand, Swordsmanship, or Spear-men 101." Max reads out "Well this chose is easy I'm going to be a taking Swordsmanship." Max already thinking of all the cool sword moves he used to do in his backyard as a kid as if he was a Jedi Knight.
"Stupid boys and their sword fetish." Kami snorts
"What can I said." Max shrugs his shoulders agreeing with Kami
"Hey what classes are you taking then." Max asks Kami
"I'm taking Inner Elements, Familiar 101 and Hand to Hand Combat."
"And you Sophie." Max turns to look at Sophie who is startled
"Umm…I..I'mm..t taking a a Muisc class, and um a familiar, er um a..also a gem tinker, with artificer." Sophie stammers her words but it' ok because she's cute.
"Gem Tinker?" Max seeming confused as he looks at Kami for an anwser
"Don't look at me I got no idea." Kami says
"Well I guess well go with what the paper saids then." Max turns to look at the paper and beings to read out loud.
"Gem Tinker is a class where a magician uses Magic Gems to be use in spells staffs and ingredients for alchemy. A gem tinker is important in that it is the battery of each class if there were no gem tinker then their be no alchemy no lights that seem to never turn off. The power of the gem tinker class is that your understanding of many things that run this world seem to be simple knowledge. If you take gem tinker you will not be disappointed, I promise." Max reads
"Hmm so it's a class about using gems to or making gems to use in crafts and other magical fields. Seems boring to me though." Kami Says after listening to Max
"I agree important but boring indeed seems like a good choice for you Sophie." Max similes at Sophie
"T..thanks." Sophie says
"Ok Class Start passing your sheets up to the front and well then start our tour of the school." Quinn says to rest of the class
Everyone starts to stand up and pass the sheets everyone making way to the door that leads out of the class each thinking of different things they hope to see.
'Man I really hope some of my teachers are cute.' Max thinks right as he leaves the room for this boy is still only 14 and can think of two things his family and girls.
