Know your Classmates

When Via got to the Events Hall, she saw that it was mostly empty. She sat on one of the chairs on the last row, and waited... and waited... and wai-

Via- (seriously! When did I woke up? The event should begin at 10:00)

[my guess is that you woke up at 6:00 or 7:00]

Via- (well, this is boring... at least, some other kids are showing up now.)

Via saw some other students that were probably first years too. She saw a blonde girl that had 4 other students practically as servants or bodyguards. Then she saw a short, black haired girl that was looking at everything really excited, and seemed to have an absurd amount of speed. Then she saw a smug looking boy that was looking at everyone as inferior beings, and then she saw Marcus and Joshua, who spotted her and walked to her side.

Marcus- hey Via! We are in! We are students!

Via- 'yes, congratulations' (at least someone is enjoying this...)

Joshua- why the long face?

Via- ... 'I have three other roommates and I don't want to. I'm shy, and my plan of waking up first and going to sleep last wouldn't work. I'm sure we will have to go to the lessons together.'

Joshua-... shy? That... that wasn't the first impression you gave me...

Via got red at that from embarrassment.

Via- 'you both were being irrational. And I'm not mute, i just can't talk in front of other people...'

Marcus- really? But with your character and strength... your shyness comes and goes as it wants...

Via- 'let's stop talking about me! What about your roommates?'

Joshua- well, we are both on the same room, with a smug boy and a creepy boy.

Via- 'creepy?'

Marcus- yeah! He is a fan of vampires, and decided to change his bed to a coffin! Also, he uses his magic to mimic what a vampire can do! He got out of the room walking on the ceiling!

Joshua- you can see him on this ceiling if you want.

Via looked up, and saw another student with a black and red cloak, waiting with his feet on the ceiling. She knew what they were talking about when they said it was creepy, but she was more interested on where the hell did he have all the magic needed to do that continuously since he woke up.

Via- 'he must be strong.'

Marcus- ? why?

Via- you are recent to use your magic to do things, but what would happen to you if you were using magic continuously since you woke up?

Joshua- !! I see... he must have a really huge magic reserve...

Via- hmh.

Marcus- hey! You made a sound!

Via- 'that wasn't talking. It doesn't count'

[it does count. But they don't need to know that, no?]

Via- (it's not that difficult to make me do sounds, is it?)

[you didn't make any the first month I knew you]

Via- (I was 5! and it was weird having someone on your head all 24 hours...)

Marcus- when will this begin?

Via- 'don't know, I don't have a clock.'

Joshua- I have. Right now it's 9:28.

Via- 'then we have to wait for 30 more minutes.'

Marcus- *sigh* oh man...

Via begun to look at other people again, and saw some students that had to be third or four years entering the hall now. Then she saw that the leader of that group got closer to the blonde girl that dressed herself like a noble, and they begun to talk happily.

Joshua- those two are from the Foxcold family. A noble house on Shev. The girl is the younger daughter while the boy is the heir. They are dangerous, not only because they act like fantasy movie nobles, but because their father is a known villain.

Via- 'villain? How?'

Marcus- oh! He refers to those open villains that no one can get into jail because there is no proof right?

Joshua-... yes, I was... how do you know about that?

Marcus- oh... err... I just know. Yeah, that's it... just know...

Via/Joshua- (he's horrible lying)

???- hello! My name's Ebony! What's yours?

The three of them looked at the source of the sound, and saw the quick first year girl that Via saw before. She had short, black hair, and green eyes that sparkled curiosity.

Via- 'My name is Via Melody.'

Marcus- I'm Marcus! Marcus Windhill!

Joshua- Joshua Brown.

Ebony- nice to meet you! See you later!

Marcus- wait! Why did you told us your name?

Ebony- why not? I'm talking to every student on the hall to know them! Hope to see you on the classroom!

The three of them saw the girl rush to the next set of students, and talk to them.

Joshua- she's... lively.

Marcus- ...yeah.

They saw her giving a handshake to a third year student, and the student looked in pain.

Via- hmm... 'she looks strong...'

Marcus- I'm curious on the way she uses her magic...

Via- 'by the way. How do you use your magic, Joshua?'

Joshua- I reinforce the blade, and sometimes I use the magic to redirect or speed the blade. Something like a low level telekinesis.

Marcus- oh! So you use that to make impossible cuts!

Joshua- yes, and because I don't use that much magic, I can fight for a long time. How do both of you use your magic?

Marcus- I'll talk while she writes it all. Via taught me on the way to this city to reinforce my body with magic, and we both learned that I could reinforce my brain, increasing my thought process and intelligence.

Joshua- interesting...

Via- 'I mostly use it in my special ability. I can trade magic for knowledge, skills, and equipment. For example, right now I'm using my ninja class, that's why I'm wearing this ninja outfit. But yesterday I used the guardian class to defend you, the double swordswoman class to defeat the enemy, the magic apprentice class to recharge my magic, and the Jack of all trades to fight the professor... but I lost even then...'

Joshua- I think we couldn't see the Jack of all trades class.

Via- 'it's my stronger class. Is the only class that is consuming magic constantly, but in exchange I can have all of the knowledge I have with the rest of my classes. Just not at the same time. For example, if I get two swords, I get the double swordswoman knowledge. And if I want to use restraining magic, I get the crowd control witch class knowledge.'

Joshua- crowd control witch?

Via- 'I'm not going to explain all of my classes here. Marcus knows some, so if you want to know, ask him'

Marcus- hey, a professor or something is on the stage.

Via looked towards the stage, and saw a young man, that looked like he had 21 or 22 years. He had a smile on his face, his body was slim and gave the sensation that a gust of wind would make him fly. He looked a little nervous.

???- hello, students! My name is Mathew Crow, and I'm the headmaster of the ToMh.
