Chapter 17 - CHAPTER SEVENTEEN Crosbreeds Academy

Birds are flying towards the academy, they see cone shape Island, and they finally reach the top of the Island. They see three statues made of big stones, one is wearing a cape, body shield and helmet and holds a sword in his hand. The second statue has big magic staff stick and is wearing a cloak. These two statues are placed facing each other at the entrance. The third statue is depicted in the center, wearing a cloak, holding a book and bearing a name, Martin Luther. There is a big lake here and there are clouds over the lake which are raining and filling lake. through the lake, there is a river flowing through the lake towards the other end of the Island and water of the river is falling below that Island. There are a lot of giant Mushrooms, trees look like umbrella and Socotra dragon trees on the island. There is a tall five-storey academy building. Behind the academy, there is a dormitory for students and teachers. There is also a large training ground behind it, with seats arranged all around it. Across the river, there is a beast birds' ground and a shelter. Kalp and others land on the Island.

'All of you, follow me.' Ava Lewis said in a whooping voice.

Everyone starts following Ava and looks towards the academy.

Then Ava Lewis stops everyone.

'Everyone stops, he is your senior Paul and henceforth he will take you all.' Ava Lewis leaves from there saying this.

Paul has brown skin and black hair. He is wearing a green robe. He takes everyone to a hall. Everyone sees there all students are standing in lines. All are dressed in blue, red and green robes and capes. There Kalp sees Nina standing in a line, wearing green robe and waving her hand towards Kalp. Kalp gets happy seeing this and he too waves his hand.

'Who is she? Is your girlfriend?' Kevin whispered

'No, our fathers are friends, so we have also become friends. By the way, my elder brother and she like each other.' Kalp said.

'All the candidates line up.' Paul said.

Everyone forms a line. Principal, Vice-principal (Ava Lewis) and the teachers are standing on the stage. Principle looks like a forty-five years old man. He is wearing a dark purple robe, has long white hair and is beardless. His name is Charles Walker.

'Good morning everyone, as you can see today we have new students of the first year and I would like to congratulate all of you. From today, you all are a part of our academy. All of you have to choose one of the two profession that are magician and Warrior. But in the first year, some more vocational classes will also have to be taken for knowledge. As you can see there are are robes and hats of different colors. Red color means you are in final year, green color means third year, blue color means you are in second year and black colour, which you are going to get now, means you are in the first year. Magicians will get robe and warriors will get capes. Therefore, you all come on the stage one by one, touch the Mana measuring stone and choose your occupation.' Charles said.

One by one, everyone measures their Mana and chooses their occupations. Aveline Honzales' chance comes and she has red stage and primary nine stage Mana. She is so proud of her ability and she chooses Magician and gets her robe. Then Ralph Nable's chance comes and he has orange stage Mana and he also chooses magician. Everyone thinks that Ralph has the most Mana, but after a few candidates, Alice comes on stage. She has orange stage and primary first stage. Everyone is shocked. All the teachers become happy and then she confidently chooses to become a magician. Kevin also chooses to become a magician. After a while, Kalp goes on the stage and then he touches the stone but nothing happens.

'I don't have any Mana and I want to choose warrior occupation.' Kalp said.

Everyone gets shocked and students start laughing. Teachers are so disappointed. Then Kalp gets his cape and he stands back in the line. After a while, assembly is over and Paul takes everyone to the dormitory. On the way, Ralph Nable and his other noble friends begin to mock Kalp. Kevin gets very angry but Kalp calms him down. They reach dormitory and there they get their room numbers. Kalp gets room number 48. He has to stay with a noble who has also chosen warrior occupation. He has brown hair and lean body with good muscles, his name is Ray. He is getting irritated after knowing that he has to stay with a commoner but he can't do anything because of the rules of the academy.

In the room, there are two single beds, both are in different corners, two study tables, two cupboards, one window and one attached bathroom. Kalp's bag is also in his room and the first year's books kept in the cupboard. Kalp introduced himself to his room partner.

'Hello, I am Kalp Field.' Kalp said and tries to shake his hand with Ray but Ray said-

'Don't dare to touch my bed, table or anything and don't even think that you commoner can talk to me on equal terms.' saying this Ray went towards his bed.

'Yeah, you are made of diamond. Idiot' Kalp whispered.

'What did you just say' Ray asked.

'Nothing' Kalp said and then he goes out.

All students go to dining hall for dinner where they all meet with students of all years. In dining room, there are so many chairs and tables. Dining hall is very big. There is a big buffet system where you can eat anything as much as you want.

Ralph Nable and Aveline Honzales are standing with noble seniors. Other nobles are also talking to other noble seniors. Commoners are in separate group. Nina comes and meets Kalp but Skanda doesn't come.

'I knew that you would would definitely succeed the exam and Skanda also believes that.' Nina said.

'How are you and how is brother?' Kalp asked.

'He is good. So these are your new friends?' Nina asked.

'Hi, I am Kevin. We have become good friends during the exam.' Kevin said very excitedly.

'Hi, I am Alice.' Alice said

'Kalp's friends, so you are also my friends. If both of you need any help, you can ask me anytime.' Nina said.

After a while, she leaves and everyone goes back to their rooms.
