After the students returned to the ss, they all spent one hour and forty minutes on the introductions of upations for each profession: Alchemists, Enchanters, Magic Smiths, Mystic Chefs, and Jewelists.


    Overall, it took them two hours to finish all the introduction sses with little breaks and moving in-between.


    Afterward, everyone returned to their main ss, A-3, where Touma-sir was already waiting while sitting on the teacher''s chair.


    Seeing every studenting in, Touma smiled and spoke, "well, this concluded our first day at the academy. Tomorrow, we will hold a one-hour meditation session early in the morning, basic mana exercise for one hour, and then alchemy ss for two hours."


    After saying that, he stood up and continued, "Zevien, Vernisia, and Sophia, you three will follow me for the reward while others are free to do anything. Don''t use lethal magic spells in the city to harm someone, or it would get instantly detected with the magic sensors throughout the city. If you want to duel or fight magic beasts, you can go to the Arenas or Colosseums located in the city. Otherwise, just enjoy and have fun doing whatever you want. There''s a lot to do in the academy and the city."


    Zevien internally scoffed because, despite the measures, crimes still urred in the city. There were also many things forbidden to practice. However, they still happened, like experiments on humans using magic beast cores, magic eidos body tempering experiments, hical potion testing, and other morally reprehensible acts.


    …


    Zevien, Vernisia, and Sophia followed Touma-sir to his private house provided by the academy.


    "Touma-sir, what ss of magician are you?" Sophia asked curiously.


    "Me? I am a 3rd ss magician," Touma replied with a small smile.


    Zevien knew the real strength of Touma-sir. He was a hidden 2nd ss-magician, one of the most powerful ones in the city. There are four major cities in Lopax country, and all those major cities have at least one 1st ss magician on standby officially. This Starline city was a major city, so there was also a 1st ss magician stationed here, but right after her, Touma-sir gets ranked as the second most powerful.<novelnext></novelnext>


    There are hidden magicians who are not known to the general public like Touma-sir. His surface record is that he is a 3rd ss magician, but in reality, he is a powerful 2nd ss magician.


    After walking for a while, they left the central academic ground and went to the faculty resident area. There were only twenty-five houses in this area, and only essential faculty members had the privilege to live here.


    After entering Touma''s residence, he took them to his small library consisting of three medium-sized bookshelves.


    "That 2nd, 3rd, and 4th rows in the shelf are all tier-1 magic spells—a total of twenty-six spells. Choose one that is suitable for you," Touma said after pointing at some shelves in a bookcase, after which he went and sat on a couch.


    "Let''s go," Sophia said with excitement as she went to the bookcase. Vernisia and Zevien also checked it out.


    ''Touma-sir didn''t hold this littlepetition before the time rewind, but this time he did. It''s pretty strange, but if he sensed something wrong with me and did it to test me, I will have to choose an external cast magic spell here, or it will bloom more doubts.


    ''I can''t afford to let the academy find out that I can''t cast magic spells normally,'' Zevien thought with slight worry and started checking out the spellbooks.


    After twenty minutes, all three of them had chosen a tier-1 spell of their choice.
