Picking up Girls With My System

Arthur used his TP near the dorm and walked the rest of the way. No one could see him performing that sort of magic.

It was quiet inside the wooden dorm. Arthur’s room was on the second floor. He did his best to not wake up the students there.

“I miss my bed.”

The bed he had in his office was way better, but he had to sleep at least a few days in the dorm so that no one saw his behavior as strange.

Philip snored loudly, and the sound of it almost made Arthur laugh. He looked like a panda.

Arthur could barely keep his eyes open, and his mind was not working as it should. The training had been tiring. He needed a rest, badly.

With a blanket covering his body, Arthur slept.

“Bro, wake up, wake up. We will miss the first day of class. Broooo!” Philip said. He used his hands to shake Arthur, who was in a deep sleep.

He was a cool guy, but Arthur wanted to punch him in the face for a second. If there was one thing he hated was being woken up by someone.

“Calm down.”

The sun was barely shining on the sky, yet Philip was already going crazy, thinking he would be late for class.

It was understandable, as he was a student. But Arthur? He was the president of that academy.

“What if I arrive late for class? I’m the boss here.” These were Arthur’s thoughts, yet he still woke up, and prepared for class…

All the new students did the same, while the old ones rejoiced at not having to wake up early, and only go to class in the afternoon.

Arthur did a quick bite and left the dorm, going to the main building.

The first class was not with Jane or Wisa, but with Harmony. 45 students were in the same class.

It was a good thing Odemore’s classrooms were immense, so all the students had decent space, and even with 45 of them, it was not crowded.

While space was not a problem, dealing with 45 youths at the same time was. Harmony entered the classroom and sat behind her desk, gazing at all students.

Perhaps they were so excited they did not notice her presence and kept chatting aloud, which only made Harmony angrier.

She wouldn’t say a word, and it took 3 minutes for one student to see her and yell at the others to stop talking.

“Finally, huh? This is my first class with all of you, yet I’m disappointed.”

The students had their heads down, ashamed. They were there to learn magic, yet were disrespectful to the teacher.

“I’m Harmony, as all of you know because of the entrance test,”

“I’ll say you one thing. I’m not the type of person to get angry with childish behavior, so, if an act like this one that just happened continues to do so, I’ll have a little chat with Mr. Arthur,”

“And you don’t want to get him pissed.”

Harmony said, and Arthur found it hilarious. She was using his authority to control the classroom.

“This is good and bad. I know she’s trying to avoid conflict, but as the teacher, I don’t think she should rely everything to me, unless it is an extreme case.” Arthur thought.

She got up from her chair and explained the basics.

“Mana is a type of energy that has been around for a long time. No one knows if there was an era in which this world did not have mana. Based on the studies, mana was here since the beginning of times.”

“A mage is someone that has enough talent to sense the mana in the air, and absorb it to strengthen the mana core inside of you, and get stronger,”

“Mages are divided in ranks. 1st circle mages, 2nd circle mages, and so on, until the 7th circle. Some people say there is more after the 7th circle, but no human alive reached that point,”

“When a mage can cast a tier 1 spell, no matter the type, he is considerate a 1st circle mage. So, for example, a mage that can cast a 7 tier spell is a 7th circle mage.”

Arthur listened to all of that, and these were things he did not know about. He knew about mana, but not about the ranks of mages, and how they were separated.

He relied on his dragon abilities so far, so knowing that was useless for him.

“I’m already a 1st circle mage then, nice.”

Just like Arthur had imagined, the first day of classes was boring. It was only the basics, and theory only. The practice would take a while to start.

The only thing that made his day less boring was when he had the class with Wisa and Jane.

It was funny how they looked at him knowing he was the president, yet had to treat him as a student.

Arthur saw how they had to hold their smiles, which made the situation even funnier.

He thought nothing would happen that day, but that quickly changed. The person who acted as a guard in the sentry post on the wall to the academy came to the classroom door.

“Wisa, excuse me. There is a woman outside that claims she wants to become a teacher here. Could you go talk with her?”

“Of course. Can she wait 5 minutes? The class is already over.”

“I’ll tell her.”

Arthur had not put an announcement about Odemore looking for teachers, yet someone had shown up to apply. It was strange, but considering the amount of students they had now, it was a life-saving event.

“A good thing this is the last class of the day, as I’ll surely have to talk with her as the president.”

Wisa finished the class and went outside to talk with the newcomer. Arthur went to the bathroom, and once inside, used his teleport spell to appear inside his office.

There, he changed his appearance and clothing to meet the person who wanted to become a teacher.

“No way!”

The moment Arthur saw her, he was shocked. It was not someone he knew, but the level above her head was extraordinary.
