BXBX NOVEL Chapter 27 Showing Him Places In The Academy.
"It was a privilege speaking with you". The head teacher voiced out once again.
And at that moment, a certain kind of expression appeared on Aiden\'s face, and this was the thought running through his mind,
\'What\'s wrong with this woman?\'.
A little smile appeared on Ethan\'s face at that moment, then he said,
"I feel honored hearing that. I am even heading to the king\'s palace at this moment".
Since she said it was a privilege speaking with him, then why doesn\'t he brag some more?
"Oh! That\'s nice". She voiced out with a smile on her face.
Wanting this to end, Ethan said, "Bye", Then he strolled straight to the door, opened it, and stepped out of her office.
The head teacher glanced at the door for some seconds before focusing her gaze on, Aiden. Then she said to him,
"Wait here, let me go call the teacher assigned to your class. She\'ll be the one to take you to your class, don\'t touch anything".
And with that, she stood up from the chair she was sitting on and walked out of the office. And at that moment, Aiden began wondering what his experience in this academy would be like. For the past seven years, he\'s been staying at home or following his dad or mum to some places.
He\'s never stepped foot into any of this academy. He\'s gotten to experience what attending school in the modern world felt like, but he hasn\'t experienced what it felt like attending school in this world. How would the students in this school treat him?
Both the ones that were younger than him, older than him, and the same age as him. In his previous world, he experienced a lot of bullying while in school, would it be the same case in this academy? Well, he\'ll know once he spends days here.
And at that moment, he began thinking about the system. He hasn\'t gotten any daily quest for today. Yesterday, he got his daily quest early in the morning, when would he get today\'s own? Well, the time he gets the quests varies each day.
As of this point, he\'s accumulated a lot of skill points, and he\'s been accumulating a lot of Exp as he keeps leveling up and his status keeps getting better and improving. None of his stats points were reading zero anymore.
He began wondering if he should check his status interface at this moment.
\'Should I? Should I not?\'.
He was still contemplating when the door to the head teacher\'s office opened. And the head teacher stepped foot into the compartment along with a pretty woman in blue robe. For some seconds, Aiden kept staring at the woman, she was really pretty.
According to the look of things, she would be in her early \'thirties. Maybe 30, 31, or 32. The head teacher stood in front of Aiden, pointed at the woman, and said,
"Aiden, this is your class teacher, the teacher assigned to your class. She goes by the name, Miss Alice".
Hearing that, a certain kind of expression appeared on Aiden\'s face. Since she was still a \'miss\', then she wasn\'t married. Why was a beautiful woman like this still single? The head teacher then glanced at Miss Alice and said,
"This is Aiden Dankworth, his father is one of the chiefs in this kingdom. He is seven years old".
"Seven years old? He\'s starting school a little late". Miss Alice voiced out with a kind of expression on her face.
"Yes, that\'s true. I asked him the reason why he\'s starting school at this age, and he didn\'t answer, so. And his dad told me they\'ve been telling him to begin school since when he was five years old, but he\'s been refusing". The head teacher stated.
Miss Alice glanced at Aiden and inquired, "Why have you been refusing to start school?".
And at that moment, this was the thought that ran through his mind, \'Holy shit! This same question?\'.
He was gonna answer her the same way he answered the head teacher, "Ummm...Ummm".
"Umm..what?". Miss Alice inquired with that expression still plastered to her face. Like a bit of confused and bewildered expression mixed together.
"This was the same answer he gave me when I asked the same question, no need to waste your time". The head teacher said to Miss Alice.
Miss Alice didn\'t ask any more questions as she kept glancing at Aiden. Then the head teacher said to her again,
"Take him to his class. And maybe, before taking him there, you can show him around this academy if you want to, it\'s a matter of choice".
Miss Alice nodded her head before uttering to Aiden,
"Let\'s go".
Aiden stood up from the chair he was sitting on and strolled over to where she was standing, then the both of them began sauntering together. They strolled out of the head teacher\'s office and began sauntering on the last floor of the edifice.
There were about two buildings on the compound, each of them was a three-storey building. As Aiden had already concluded, they tried in the way they built the structures, but a lot of improvements were to be made to them if they were to look as good as the ones in modern-day schools.
As they were walking, Miss Alice glanced at Aiden and uttered,
"Before we head over to your class, I want to show you some places in this academy...some important places".
Aiden did nothing but nod his head, then Miss Alice said to him again,
"Were you told about how feeding works in this academy?".
"Yes, I\'ll have to pay some copper coins to eat, right?". Aiden retorted.
"Exactly. Now, were you given some copper coins?".
"Yes, my dad gave me some before leaving".
"The head teacher told me your dad is a chief, what rank is he at?". Miss Alice inquired of Aiden once again.
"He is at the medium rank, he is a medium-rank chief".
"Hmmm, that\'s nice. Hearing that surname, Dankworth, I knew it was familiar. Well, I am gonna take you to where both students and teachers gather to eat once it gets to break". Miss Alice said.
And hearing that, Aiden became a little elated. If it was in the modern world, they\'ll call it cafeteria, but here, they didn\'t give it any name. So in his head, he just named it \'cafeteria\'. He wanted to see what it looked like, how it was arranged.
He thought they were gonna begin mounting the staircase of this building, but no, she sauntered straight into the compound. And still following her, Aiden inquired,
"Where are we heading to? Aren\'t we gonna begin mounting one of the staircases in this building to get there?".
"It\'s located in this building, not the other one", After uttering that, she laughed a little, then voiced out again, "Or do you think I don\'t know what I\'m doing?".
"No, it\'s not like that". Aiden said.
"Just follow my lead". Miss Alice uttered ending the conversation.
According to what Aiden had discerned, they were heading to the other three-storey building just as Miss Alice had already told him. They strolled until they got to the building, then she walked to a certain door, opened it, and she and Aiden stepped foot into it.
Entering it, Aiden began glancing around immediately, it was nice looking. It was arranged just as the cafeterias in modern world. Chairs were kept round a certain wooden table, and that\'s how it kept going covering all the compartment.
More than three people can make use of one table to eat. And the compartment was vast meaning it could contain a large number of people.
"So, this is where everyone gathers to eat, that\'s if you\'re with enough money to pay for the food". Miss Alice said to Aiden.
Aiden nodded his head in understanding as he was still glancing around. Then Miss Alice said to him once again,
"And this is where the cooks come to cook the food that we eat each day. They haven\'t started cooking yet, but in some minutes more, they\'ll start cooking, and they are fast cookers".
Aiden just kept nodding his head in understanding, then Miss Alice said to him again,
"Now, let\'s head over to the library".
"Library?". Aiden inquired with a bit of bewildered expression on his face.
"Yes, library, where different books on different subjects are located. Is that a surprising thing to you? This is an academy where learning takes place. Or haven\'t you heard of the word library before?". Miss Alice uttered to Aiden.
"No, that isn\'t the case". Aiden stated.
"Then what\'s the case?".
"It\'s nothing, don\'t worry about it".
Miss Alice sighed as she strolled out of the compartment, and Aiden followed suit.
