My Level Zero System

But before Kain could explain anything, Mera took a step forward and stopped her sister.

"Myra, I think Kain has his reasons for this. And don\'t tell me you\'ve forgotten his goal?"

"Sorry Kain, I was a bit... hasty."

Reminded by Mera, Myra apologized in embarrassment. She remembered that Kain had said that he was very interested in knowledge, perhaps that was why he chose that major.

"It\'s okay, my skills won\'t fade away either."

Myra now let out a sigh of relief. She realized that Kain was inherently extremely good at fighting, so enrolling in the combat department to receive intensive combat training was not as necessary as other students.

As for Myra and Mera, they were inherently at a disadvantage in this area, so they both chose the combat department.

Actually, Kain had more reasons than just knowledge.

The combat branch is fine, but the combat branch only allows registration of two different magic subjects.

Kain understood why the academy had such a rule.

That\'s because students\' energy is limited.

They can\'t handle too much at once, especially when it comes to fighting, which is a very physically and mentally draining activity. If students are allowed to enroll in magic without permission, they will end up becoming jacks of all trades, but good at nothing.

Of course, there aren\'t many people who are truly that stupid, but geniuses are sometimes arrogant, thinking that they can do what others can do. So the academy still wants to guard against these rare cases.

But this time Kain wanted to be that fool.

He wants to learn as many magic systems as possible, and upgrade later.

After a while of commotion, the division of departments seemed to be complete. Kain looked around.

The male-female ratio in the combat department is about six males to four females. As for the research department…

Nine females - one male.

The difference is a bit far, if not too far.

Kain looked at the research department with only a few boys and couldn\'t help but feel uneasy. Meanwhile, the male students from the combat department were secretly laughing at the male students from the research department.

"Look at those weaklings."

"We fought to the death to get here, and yet those people chose to learn how to name a plant."

"What a joke."

"We are here to enter the Tower of Magus, the weak should go away."

Although the gossip was not loud, looking at the hideous expressions of the people from the combat department was enough to understand what they were talking about.

Some of the combat staff were also quite indignant at such rude words. Mera was a very emotional person, she was about to explode into a one-on-one argument with those talkative people when her sister stopped her.

Myra shook her head slightly, arguing would be useless, on the contrary it might just become the target of everyone\'s criticism.

This time, not only the male students from the research department felt offended, but even the female students felt uncomfortable.

Even if they knew which group of people the combat department was mainly targeting, it would still indirectly be tarnishing their entire department.

Some male students looked distraught, regret and shame began to appear on their faces. Unfortunately, it was too late to transfer classes now.

The teachers were also very surprised. They had expected that there would be changes this year due to the change in the entrance exam format, but they also did not expect that the first change would be so big.

The combat department was a bit overloaded, while the research department was relatively quiet.

"Alright, let\'s stop here."

"Each of us is a different piece in a big picture, no one is superior to anyone else and no one is inferior to anyone else."

The principal\'s words ended the uproar, but whether the simmering still existed or not, no one knew for sure.

…

"Is this my dorm room?"

Kain looked at the numbered room door, then confirmed it again.

The tumultuous opening ceremony has ended, and Kain has temporarily parted ways with Mera and Myra.

"I wonder what my roommate will be like?"

Kain asked himself a question, then he opened the door.

Inside is a room that, although not too spacious, is extremely tidy. A large window is placed in the middle of the room to make the most of daylight, two large beds are placed symmetrically on both sides of the room, there is a curtain that can be pulled out and closed in the area near the bed to ensure privacy. Then there are essential items such as wardrobes, desks, chairs,...

Simple yet practical, Kain has nothing to complain about here.

At this moment, on the bed on the left side, a short teenager with a mushroom-shaped head and glasses was sitting attentively reading a book.

Seeing Kain enter, the young man was a little startled, but then pretended to be absorbed in reading his book.

However, Kain also discovered this, because the focus in the young man\'s eyes was not on the book in his hand.

However, he did not expose himself, just naturally arranged his things on the right side of the room before greeting him in a friendly manner.

"Hello, I\'m Kain, nice to meet you."

"I... I\'m Hardy."

Hardy finished speaking and then bowed his head back to the book.

Despite Kain\'s goodwill, the short youth was still quite reserved.

Kain didn\'t pay much attention, he comfortably lay down on the bed to rest.

"Hmm, it\'s comfortable, it seems the academy uses high-quality animal fur…"

For Kain, having three nutritious meals a day, staying in a windproof room and sleeping on a soft bed was already a kind of happiness.

In contrast to Kain, the left side of the room had a clear contrast.

Hardy, although he looked like he was concentrating on reading, would occasionally sneak glances at Kain with eyes filled with wariness and fear.
