49 Entrance Ceremony 2

"Hehe. Nice fall."

The mysterious man laughed heartily.

"This is new. No one usually uses the stairs nowadays. So it's quite alarming that there would be someone here."

The man continued to speak as he hid by the branches. Inna wanted to speak as well but he beat her to it.

"Yea, no one usually goes here. That's why this is my hiding place! The other students would usually buy those low grade teleportation scrolls at the market. They're pretty cheap you know! About 1 silver coin each. Some even just cast their own low grade teleportation. Well, given that they are strong enough." The man chuckled.

Then, he continued his one-sided conversation as he talked about the weather and the leaves. Meanwhile, Inna was still hung up on his words.

'No one uses the stairs.'

'No one goes here.'

'Buy teleportation scrolls at the market.'

Inna was actually surprised at the fact that she can actually get so angry to the point that murder seemed so logical and reasonable in her eyes.

"THAT d.a.m.nED OLD MAN! HE ACTUALLY MADE ME CLIMB FOR NOTHING?! I SWEAR TO G.o.d I'M GOING TO PULL ON THAT FACE OF HIS UNTIL HE BECOMES A BULLDOG! OLD GEEZER! I HOPE YOU AGE FASTER!"

Inna started screamed various curses at the top of her lungs which startled the man greatly. He stopped his monologue and decided to watch her instead.

He was actually amazed at the words she was spouting.

About 80% of them, he didn't even know the meaning of!

And that's really surprising because he prided himself as one of the most outstanding and well-educated n.o.bles among Anemoly. He was even able to read almost all the books in the Royal Library!

Inna didn't notice his curious gaze as she slowly finished up her ranting.

She breathed deeply to calm herself before she walked towards the white arched pillars found near the end of the staircase. Back when she was at the town, it looked small. But now, standing before it, it was actually really tall, probably about 10 meters in height.

The lone arched pillar's design reminded her of those ancient Greek pillars except that this pillar had different carvings on it. This arched pillar had ancient Eridoan writings in its body and some Latin symbols as well. And at the arch, there were letter carvings that formed the word "Eldora Academy." And below it were Latin words that sounded like a familiar slogan in her time.

"Scientia Potentia Est."

Science? Is power? Or maybe something similar to that.

Behind the pillar was a small inconspicuous house that struck her as odd, but she chose not to comment on it. She didn't really fully understand the ways of this world yet.

Maybe there's a teleportation spot there or something?

Inna completely ignored the weirdo by the tree as she entered. Suddenly, she felt a strong force sucking her in, and when she continued to walk, it felt like she was pa.s.sing through a thick invisible wall of Jello. And when she reached the end of that Jello wall, she saw the scenery in her eyes change.

Instead of a small house, she saw a crowd that consisted of thousands of people in similar white robes packed densely in the open s.p.a.ce. In the far distance, she saw a floating podium and a banner in mid-air that said, 'Welcome Students!' in Eridoan.

She decided to go in for a closer look so she weaved her way through the crowd. Just as she was about to overtake the dude by her right, she felt a firm hand grasp her arm.

"I wouldn't go there if I were you."

She looked at the hand and found it eerily familiar.

Wait, wasn't this the hand that was waving at her by the trees?

Don't tell me…. The man was following her?

"STALKER!" She cried as she swiveled and quickly tried to hit his crotch with her knee.

Luckily, the man had quick reflexes so he immediately grabbed her leg and restrained it from moving.

"I'm not stalking you! I'm a new student here as well!" He half-whispered to her while coaxing her to not attract attention.

Inna glared at him but she only did it for a second before she was startled by his looks.

He was certainly…. charming...

He had this kind of playful air around him but at the same time, he makes you feel like he wouldn't hurt a fly. He had jet black hair that was styled messily and still had a few leaves stuck to it. And he had sky blue eyes that literally makes him look so good! Like words can't describe how black hair and sky blue eyes are the best combination for him! And to partner the perfect combination, his face was porcelain white and his lips were pale pink!

Jesus! He's like a child between a hot American model and a Korean Idol!

The man, seeing Inna in a daze at his looks, suddenly had an urge to tease her.

So, he got closer and grabbed her leg tighter. He got so close that his arched nose almost touched hers.

If the others would see their position, they would immediately get the wrong idea!

After all, he was still holding her leg up at his side while their faces are practically close to touching.

Inna was unable to move when she saw his baby blue eyes staring straight through her. And she was near trembling when she noticed it going closer and closer.

Suddenly, there was a loud sound.

"Prrrrrrrttttt!"

And a few moments after, someone shouted.

"Hey! Who farted?!"
