The meeting started with the introduction of each class A student. But with their number reaching 10,000 people, of course, this would take too much time. For that Yin decided to divide it per dormitory block.

Class A's dormitory building was huge and was able to accommodate all the new students with empty rooms left. It consists of 30 floors and each floor has up to 350 rooms.

Each student from Class A has their own room and does not live in it with other students. These rooms are divided into 7 blocks, which are marked with block A to block G. Each block has 50 rooms so if you don't count the empty rooms, then each block has 50 class A students.

Artur and Robert's room is in block A on the 15th floor, apart from the two of them there are 40 other class A students who live in the same block. Of all the students living in Block A, only Artur comes from the dirt poor commoner.

The rest are children of merchants or children of nobles. However, due to his friendship with Robert, Arthur is no longer looked down upon by the other students. Instead, he became a star in block A and is considered a bridge to Robert's circle.

While Kira and Awni live on the 4th floor of Block B, they both have adjoining rooms that they don't seem to use. Actually, Awni was supposed to have a room on the 15th floor of Block C but somehow he was able to get the student living next to Kira's room to switch rooms with him.

Meanwhile, Jemah and Hani also live on the 4th floor of Block B, not because the Military Academy has a policy about servants having to live near their master, but because of coincidence. The funny thing is that their rooms were next to each other as if they were destined to be like that.

In the end, the two people who hated each other from the bottom of their hearts were always throwing abuse and curses at each other from their respective rooms even though their voices were separated by a thick wall. Artur didn't understand the magic behind it, but it seemed that even though they shouldn't have heard each other, their curse and mockery still managed to hit their target.

The purpose of introducing fellow students in one block is that when the academy actually starts, the students who live in one block will have the same class. There was no room change until their study period was over so for the next three years the people Artur would always see in his class would be the same people.

Artur feels very lucky to have Robert, as someone who will definitely be elected as the class leader, his existence can make life at Arthur's academy more peaceful. Even so, it seemed that Arthur wasn't the only one who thought so.

The show that just happened a few minutes ago shows the character of Robert who is not arbitrary and arrogant. He had a big heart to accept Artur who was just a dirt poor commoner to be his friend so it was only natural that he would also accept students of the class.

Block A 15th floor decided to name their class later A15. A name that is easy to remember and simple, the one who recommended this name was Robert himself so no one objected to accepting it.

As the world strongest human's child, no one is his equal in class A15. But he remained humble enough to ask each student's opinion one by one which of course made them flattered.

If previously they accepted Robert as a leader because he was Stent Gaht's son, now they can respect Robert because of his character.

Artur who stood next to Robert just kept quiet and didn't say anything. He knew his current position was only due to his friendship with Robert. So if he immediately shows off and pretends to set things up then there will be resentment among the Class A students which can later become the seed of disunity.

Artur still remembers that Robert's goal in entering the Military Academy was to find his own trusted comrades. Because of that, he had to start by leading the A15 class.

Most of the other students also chose their class names based on the floor and block they lived in. Only Milton chose the class name One-Tiger, which of course was based on his family crest.

Even so, the other students in his class did not dare to dispute Milton's decision. After seeing Milton fight with Robert, only those who have brain problems dare to challenge Milton directly.

The agenda for the next meeting was to choose the name of their student generation. Yin once again led the way in the discussion by using his insect incantation to draw all attention to him. Robert started to look displeased with Yin who always used his secret spell to get ahead of the other students.

After several debates that almost turned into fights again, the new Class A students decided to name their student generation Demon's Slayer. Without having to think long, it is clear that the reason for choosing this name is.

They were currently in the year where the second mana species war occurred and their biggest enemy right now was the demon species. Whether it was due to bravado or unfounded self-confidence, the students assumed that it was their generation that would decapitate the demons and win the second mana species war.

Robert also seems to have no problem with the name of the Demon's Slayer. "Names are goals and hopes", he said with a characteristic smile on his face.

Don't know why Artur doesn't mind this name either. Even though he thinks that Demon's Slayer is very childish, he understands that going to war must be accompanied by childish hopes.

Then after that, the meeting entered a break, and sumptuous meals that Artur had never seen before were served in the room. From the smell alone Artur was salivating, his tongue couldn't wait to taste one of the soups that looked very delicious.

"Robert, after this what's next?" with his mouth full Artur asked with Robert next to him who also had a mouth full of food.

*GULP!

Seeing Robert struggling to swallow his food before answering, Artur once again doubted Robert's nobility.

"After this, there is a speech from the senior. He will explain what we will face over the next three years. This is very important, I heard that every semester there will be an exam to test the abilities of the Military Academy's students."

"Oh? Then when will we receive the Mana Potions?" this was the most important question for Artur, to a commoner, the main goal of entering the Military Academy was to obtain Mana Potions.

"Mana Potion? Ah, that will be given every month." Robert said with a mouth that was still busy chewing.

"Every month?!!" Artur's eyes widened, "How much will we get?"

"Hmm... You will get two bottles of Mana Potions every month but if you have a high ranking in the test then the amount will also increase."

"TWO?!" Arthur ignored the food that was spraying out of his mouth. Jemah who sat in front of him could only wipe his face and looked at Arthur with annoyance.

"Yep, two. Every student of the Military Academy gets at least two Mana Potions every month." Robert answered casually.

'What the fuck!'

For Artur, the Mana Potion was a precious object that Gilbert had to lick the ass of his boss for twenty years of work to have. Every day he had to go to work before sunrise and return after sunset.

And if a friend of his got sick then Gilbert had to fill in for him which meant he wouldn't be coming home for a few days. Then Cila has to cook more food every morning which Gilbert will bring to give to his boss.

This was just what Artur knew but the truth was that maybe Morris Family had to sacrifice more than that to get the Mana Potion. For a Mana Potion, maybe the only thing that Gilbert doesn't give is a chance to sleep with Cila or Anna.

After that, he only got one bottle, with the Medium-grade mana flow he has, the possibility of becoming a mage is still very small. If he didn't manage to become a mage with one bottle of Mana Potion then he would have to sacrifice another twenty years to get the second bottle.

Sometimes Artur was afraid that one day Gilbert would really lose hope and sacrifice Cila to his boss to get Mana Potion. Her mother was still beautiful even though she was approaching forty.

All the sacrifices of the Morris family during those forty years equal to only one month for the students at the Military Academy.

This fact made Artur feel like crying and the sumptuous food in front of him no longer looked so appetizing. Only five words that he really wanted to scream right now.

FAIRNESS IS A SON OF BITCH

"You're not continuing to eat?" asked Robert who saw Arthur's hand that had stopped feeding food into his mouth.

"No, I'm not in the mood anymore" replied Artur with a gloomy face.

"It's good then, soon the break time will be over and it looks like our seniors have arrived," Robert glanced at the crowded crowd.
