My Dragon System

Chapter 243 - First Day magic school

The first set of classes were a struggle for Ray. The students had already started the term about a month ago, it seemed like they were in the middle of teaching a certain subject, although, Ray wasn't completely lost because of the time spent at Avrion studying.

There were many similarities between Ki and mana, but as soon as the teacher started to talk about spell formation and magic circles, Ray was kind of lost. The way the humans used magic was quite different to how he did as a dragon.

It was as if every spell was altered for the ease of use for a human with weak magical power, whereas for Ray that wasn't needed. And the current way he used abilities was even a mystery for himself. There was no effort on his part at all to cast some type of spell.

When the first classes ended, it was time for lunch and Ray was the centre attention of everyone. They had all rushed over to speak to him.

"Hey your name's Nes right, what a strange name I've never heard that before?

"Where are you from?"

"Do you have a magic teacher?"

"I bet these classes are easy for you."

All of this was of course because Ray was a new student but Ray was getting extra attention for getting a perfect score on the entrance exam. A feat that hadn't been done before. Ray was secretly cursing at Lenny for putting him in this awkward scenario.

No matter where Ray went people would talk about him. It happened at Break time, while walking around and even now at lunch.

"Beat it you guys, you're around him like a bunch of flies attracted to dung." Max said, "Besides the teacher asked me to show Ray around the school."

As Ray looked around the classroom, he noticed Van had disappeared from his seat and was nowhere to be seen.

"Where'd he go?" Ray thought.

"Hey Nes, let's go buddy," Max said with a big smile.

Ray did his best to give an awkward smile back.

Ray and Max were walking outside while Max would point out several buildings around the campus and what they were used for. It was a huge place that was at least four times bigger than Avrion academy.

"Yeah this place might be confusing at first because of how big it is but you should get used to it in a couple of days," Max said, "You know when I got here I was really excited, my older brothers had come here and achieved great things. Now each one of them is a high ranking official in the Alure kingdom army."

Then Suddenly Max seemed to get depressed.

"But my grades have been horrible ever since I got here and there doesn't seem like there will be any improvement. Then there's you who got a perfect score on the exam. I'm a little jealous."

As they continued to walk around, Ray noticed that there were certain areas that Max was avoiding altogether. When Del was showing him around Del had done the same.

"Hey, why don't we check out that area over there?" Ray asked pointing at a bunch of buildings.

"Oh, those areas are for the Upper and Middle-class students. "Max explained. "Although they are free to go where they want around the academy, the lower classes like us have to stay in this section of the academy."

Just then from the upperclassmen area, three students started to walk towards them. On their academy uniform just on their shoulder were three golden stripes. It stood out on the white blazer uniform.

These stripes indicated that they were part of the Upper class. Two stripes for the middle class and one stripe for the lower class.

In the centre of the upper-class students, stood a tall spikey brown-haired student.

"Hey, you're in teacher Del's class, right?" The student asked.

Max replied in an instant and was fidgeting constantly like he was nervous.

"Yes, I am."

"Yeah, I thought I might have seen you around the academy before, so how is that Freak doing in your class?"

Those words had suddenly caught Ray's attention. In the report he had received from the queen she stated that the students would often call her son names. But the one word that stuck out, was the word Freak.

"I don't really talk to him much," Max said rubbing his head. "But he seems to be doing fine."

"Really, oh well." The student said before walking back off in the direction they had come from with the other two.

As the two left, Max took in a deep breath as if now he could finally breathe.

"Man I thought they were going to skin me alive"

"Huh, what's wrong? Were you worried about something?" Ray asked.

"Look Nes, let me give you a piece of advice if you want to survive in this academy," Max said as he looked at Ray with fear in his eyes. "First thing, never go up against those in the upper class in this academy. Some people have tried to break down the order and these barriers in the school and have suffered grave consequences because of it."

A thought had popped into his head, Amy. Back at the village, Amy was different from everyone else. While all the kids Bullied Ray she stuck up for him, it was her stubborn nature. Ray couldn't help think that if Roland had a strange power system, that Amy would have tried to break it down and possibly suffered consequences because of it.

"What about the teachers, do they not do anything about it?" Ray asked.

"Do you know how many upperclassmen there are in this school?" There only around 30 of them. The school give them special privileges because they have proven to show the most potential out of all the students at Roland and this had also led them to have a smug attitude in its place."

"How strong are these upperclassmen?" With Ray's dragon eye skill being suppressed in the academy, he could no longer read the aura of others. To him right now Max seemed just as powerful as the three upperclassmen that had come over.

"One of them would be able to take on a hundred of us lower classmen with ease. Now on to the second rule, never anger Blake Sunshield."

"Who's that?"

"That was the person who had just come over, the spikey brown-haired guy. All of the Upperclassmen have an arrogant attitude but he's personality is especially fickle. If you anger him then he will make your school life hell for the rest of your days."

It seemed like Max was quite the talker and now was the right time to ask him questions. He couldn't ask about Amy because Ray technically wouldn't know who she was, he was never a first-year student so instead, he asked a different question.

"So what was this Freak person he was talking about?" Ray asked.
