Chapter 7: Violet Academy (1)

There is a wall here, purple with white tiles, crystal clear, and a faint splendor in the daylight, although there is no decoration, but it has a simple beauty. In the middle of the wall, there is a large gate, however, unlike the modest wall, this gate is unusually ornate. The gate is about the height of two walls, and a purple circular emblem is engraved on it, and the blue gate with the purple courtyard emblem is incomparably harmonious. In the center of the emblem was a blooming violet, protected by a sword and a shield, and anyone who was in Oran City could recognize this emblem, because this emblem was the emblem of the Violet Academy, which was famous all over the continent! Yes, this place was the Violet Academy, one of the three major academies. At this time, it is the annual enrollment day of Violet Academy.

The blue door opened to both sides, and the doorway was occupied by two long tables, each with two female teachers dressed in the Violet Academy's iconic purple shirts, one in front of a purple crystal ball and the other in charge of recording. In front of the table, there were two long lines with no end in sight, and everyone in the team was full of enthusiasm and hope as they looked at the name of Violet Academy on that face. In fact, those children of the nobility basically don't have to queue up, and they have already decided on their positions early, and only ordinary people with no background will be here. And this place, for these ordinary people, is a legendary existence, a place that has the potential to change their fate.

These two teams are very long, and the number of people in each team has exceeded 5,000. Because the requirements for male students in Violet Academy are much higher than those for female students, most of them are female students, and the number of male students is very small.

At this time, in the line on one side, it was the turn of a young girl. This girl has long blue hair and a shawl, and her eyebrows are clear and beautiful, which is pleasing to the eye. Her eyes were dark blue, like a deep spring, with a hint of heroism. At this time, the female teacher in front of the crystal ball on her side suddenly sighed, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and then she said gently: "Child, wait a minute, I will use magic to test whether your age is qualified, don't move if I don't speak." Her voice was not high, and there was a hint of exhaustion, and it was clear that she had been working for a long time.

The girl nodded. Immediately, the female teacher gently put her hand on her forehead, and a white brilliance was released from her hand, enveloping the girl's whole body, and after sweeping a circle, the brilliance disappeared again.

"Seventeen," the teacher said to herself, and gently commanded, "put your hand on the crystal ball and don't move." ”

The girl did as she said and placed her hand on the crystal ball. The crystal ball is cold to the touch, very smooth, and should have been meticulously polished. The female teacher put her hand on the base of the crystal ball, and then she felt that the crystal ball suddenly became warm, as if there was a warm current flowing through his body, and then disappeared The girl knew that it was the magic of the crystal ball, and through the magic of this teacher, it entered her body to probe her qualifications, and then transmitted the information she got back to the crystal ball. When the magic of the crystal ball is transmitted back to the crystal ball, the crystal ball emits a blue-purple glow. As if he had already guessed the result, the teacher nodded to himself: "The best qualification, congratulations, you have been admitted to the academy, go to the teacher next to you to register the information." ”

When the female teacher over there heard this, her spirits perked up, you must know that only middle-class and upper-class qualified girls will be admitted to Violet Academy, and male students can only be admitted to the top qualifications, so it is often necessary to separate many people before one person is admitted, and the person with the highest qualifications like this girl is still the first

The girl walked up to the teacher in charge of recording the information, and was about to fill out the form when she suddenly heard an exclamation from another table. Suddenly, the two teachers on the girl's side were startled, immediately stood up, and asked over there, "What's wrong?"

The teacher in charge of recording over there also stood up and looked at the other teacher, and the teacher seemed to be still in a daze, and only then came back to his senses when he heard the question between the two: "The crystal ball exploded?"

"Huh?" The two teachers here were stunned: "What's going on?"

The teacher said distressedly, "I don't know, it just suddenly exploded, maybe it's been used too many times." ”

The teacher in charge of recording over there said, "In that case, I'll go back and get one, as for his ......," she said, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked, "How old is he?"

The teacher replied, "Sixteen years old, the qualifications should be fine, let him come in directly, save me from checking again." ”

Hearing this, the two teachers on the girl's side also looked over, and then there was also a strange look in their eyes. The teacher in charge of recording here said, "In that case, let him in, and since you are going to get the crystal ball, let him come here to fill in the information." ”

At this time, the girl couldn't help but look over curiously, only to see that the test subject was a teenager, and since his head was not turned, he could only see his gorgeous long silver hair draped behind his back, looking unusually cold.

"All right," replied the teacher, and then said to the boy, "all right, this pretty little brother, go over there and register with that little sister." ”

The boy nodded, walked this way, and when she saw the boy's face, the girl couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. The young man's face was so handsome that even she would be ashamed of herself, but her silver eyes were unusually cold. She had never seen such a look, it was not the pride of being extremely talented, nor the coldness of pretending to be staught, nor the indifference of killing countless people. The moment she was stared at by that gaze, she suddenly had a delusion in her heart, as if she was not a human race, but this feeling quickly dissipated, and she didn't pay much attention to it.

"Okay," the teacher in charge of recording here said to them, "You should quickly fill in the information, you can enter the school after filling in, there are seniors and seniors who are responsible for receiving you, just ask them if you have any questions." ”

The girl nodded and began to fill in the information, as did the silver-haired boy. They filled it out almost at the same time, and when the girl finished filling it out, the corner of her eye swept to the silver-haired boy's information, and only his name could be seen due to the angle. What a strange name, I don't know where it came from.

After the two of them filled it out, they walked through the door of Violet Academy. Behind the gate is a stone paved road of white stone bricks, and there are weeds growing in the cracks of the stone bricks, which makes people have to marvel at their tenacity. The large open space on both sides of the road is full of violets, white, blue, and purple, and these three violet colors are also the three main colors of the violet academy building. The fragrance of violets spreads in the air, and the smell is so pleasant that even the body becomes more comfortable.

Walking along this white stone road, a huge building stands at the end of the road, which looks extremely majestic, and that is the main building. It was so large that it resembled a small castle instead of a building. The building has a white theme, with a purple dome at the top, and a blue roof, doors and windows, which perfectly show the coexistence of majesty and elegance.

If there was only one word to describe the style of this college, it would be elegance. After all, this academy was founded by women, and for thousands of years to come, there were only women, so it naturally brought a woman's aesthetics. If you look at its architecture alone, it is not so much a college as a villa for a vacation.

When you enter the main building, you can see that the first floor of the main building is a hall with blue tiles, purple ceilings, and the walls on all sides are as pure as snow. In the four corners of the hall, there is a large bunch of elegant purple lavender, quietly exuding an intoxicating fragrance. At this time, a large group of girls in white clothes and white skirts gathered in the hall, and there were several teenagers who were also wearing white clothes. When he saw someone coming in again, he immediately made an uproar. At this moment, one of the girls walked out of the crowd, and when she saw this girl, the noise suddenly subsided, and turned to private discussion.

The girl looked at the girl, her hair was blue, her eyebrows were delicate, and her slender eyes were particularly gentle. She looked about seventeen years old, tall and tall, and the white dress wrapped around her body perfectly set off her temperament. This is a very beautiful girl, and it makes people seem to want to hold her in their arms and not let her be hurt in the slightest. At this moment, the girl who I saw pity smiled faintly and introduced herself to them: "Hello, congratulations on coming to Violet Academy. My name is Sallyster, I'm your senior sister, I'm in the second grade, I'm here to familiarize you with the school, you can ask me any questions. ”

The girl also smiled heartily: "Hello senior sister, my name is Caroline, I am very happy to meet such a beautiful person as senior sister." ”

"Snub Star. The young man said lightly, and there was not even a trace of warmth between his words.

Hearing the words of the snub star, Caroline was a little displeased in her heart, such an answer was really rude, but he might be this kind of character. Sally didn't show any displeasure, her face didn't change at all, Caroline felt strangely, as if she had expected it, and still smiled and said, "I'll lead you through the formalities and get acquainted with the academy." Let's go pay the tuition first, come with me, the finance office is on the second floor. With that, he headed for a hallway connected to the hall, followed by Snub Star and Caroline.

As she went to the finance room, Sally suddenly asked, "It's rare to see people coming together, are you friends together?"

"It was an accident. Caroline replied, telling Sally what had happened during the test. When she looked at the cold star, she suddenly found that the cold star was stunned for some reason, and she looked like she remembered something.

Sally also noticed the appearance of the snub star: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Snub Star came back to his senses, "just thinking of what a person once said to me." Listening to Snub Star's words, Caroline suddenly had a strange feeling, but she didn't know why, she just felt that Snub Star seemed to be more comfortable than before. When she recalled this scene after a few years, it suddenly dawned on her that there seemed to be a little "human" flavor in the words of the snub star at that time, and she no longer looked like a strange creature.

Once on the second floor, they followed Sally to the right and into another hallway. As she reached the third door, Sally stopped and knocked on the door, and a slouchy voice came from the door, "Come in." ”

Sallyster pushed the door open, and the two followed her. The walls of this room are white, the windows are facing south, and the midday sun just shines through the glass and sprinkles on the blue floor. In all fairness, it's a nice room, it's just ...... It's too messy. The floor of the room is littered with books, materials, and bottles of finished wine, leaving almost no gaps on the floor, making people's scalps tingle when they look at it.

There was an equally messy table under the window, and a female teacher with short white hair was lazily leaning back in her chair, her legs crossed, looking lazy. Her purple teacher's uniform was full of wrinkles, and in some places it had changed to other colors, and I don't know when it had been left behind, apparently it hadn't been washed for a long time. When Snub Star and Caroline followed Sally through the room full of clutter and approached the female teacher, they could still smell a smell of alcohol from her, presumably from a recent drink. Watching them come in, the female teacher lazily asked, "Is there something wrong?" Maybe she also knew that she couldn't go too far in front of the students, so she didn't ask while drinking, but the unfinished bottle in front of her undoubtedly revealed what she was doing before.

Sallyster replied respectfully, "They are new juniors and juniors, and I brought them to pay the tuition." ”

The female teacher let out an "oh" and asked, "Is it a *clear or a work-study?"

Sally looked at them, apparently letting them judge for themselves.

"Once* clear. Caroline replied. Immediately, he took out two golden coupons from his pocket and handed them to the teacher.

If the number of gold coins is too large, it is not convenient to carry, although those who have reached the heaven level can use the space ring, but the space ring capacity is limited, and no heaven-level powerhouse will hold thousands of gold coins in the precious space. Therefore, the golden coupon was born with the trend. The first to use the gold coupon was the mercenary union, and then gradually expanded to the entire human race, the general one gold coupon is equal to one hundred gold coins, which can be exchanged for gold coins in any place in the Demon Martial Continent, because the gold coupon is light and thin, easy to carry, so it is welcomed by the nobles. Of course, there are actually gold coupons with larger denominations, but those of that denomination are rarely used.

Snub Star also took out the golden coupons, but it was only ten. At Violet Academy, the tuition fee for girls is only two hundred gold coins per year, while the tuition fee for male students is one thousand gold coins, which is five times that of female students. In fact, one of the purposes of the Violet Academy is to help women, so that those talented among the common girls can get the opportunity to change their fate, so they are quite tolerant of girls. Two hundred gold coins a year, generally a slightly richer family can make up enough, even if the family can't afford it, you can also use the work-study situation, but after graduation, you have to teach in the school for five years.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Violet Academy that the female powerhouses of the Orlan Empire are more than three-quarters of the female powerhouses of the other four empires combined, and the status of women in the Orlan Empire is much higher than that of other empires. It can be said that the women of the entire Oran Empire should be grateful for the existence of the Violet Academy, and this is exactly the case. Every year on the day of the establishment of the Violet Academy, up and down the Oran Empire, no matter where it is, those women will spontaneously celebrate, even those who did not make it to the Violet Academy.

After paying the tuition, Sally left the finance room with Snub Star and Caroline, and closed the door as she went.

After walking out of the finance room, Sally looked back at the finance room with a complicated expression.

Caroline hesitated for a moment and asked, "Sister Sallyster, this teacher seems to be a little ......"

"Do you mean Miss Dolores?" Salicete sighed softly, "She's actually a poor person!" After saying that, she didn't say anything more, obviously reluctant to bring up the subject.

Hearing the teacher's name, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Caroline's eyes, as if she remembered something, and there was a faint sympathy in her eyes.

Sally led them through the building, and went with them to receive the uniforms and badges of Violet College. Each of them has two sets of uniforms, which can be worn interchangeably and can be re-claimed if damaged, which is free of charge. Violet College has a total of six grades, the uniforms for grades 1 and 2 are white, the uniforms for grades 3 and 4 are blue, and the uniforms for grades 5 and 6 are purple. Snub Star's school uniform is a long coat and trousers, and Caroline's has an extra long skirt in addition to these two, even on the school uniform, it can be seen that Violet College has a preference for girls. The school emblem is to be pinned to the school uniform, symbolizing the identity of the Violet College students, so it needs to be worn at all times. According to Gu Sarister, if she is found not wearing the school badge, she will be punished, such as cleaning the school building or something.

"Where should we go next?" asked Carolyn

"Go to the dormitory," replied Sallyster, "you go to the dormitory and tidy up, change into your uniform, and I'll be waiting for you in the cafeteria at noon, and I'll show you wherever you want to go in the afternoon." Anyway, there is still one day left in the admissions of the college, so you can find interesting places, after all, it will not be easy to start classes, and you will be very tired by then. ”

Sally led them downstairs, turned a corner, and went out through a side door. After walking out of the main building, there is a square with a huge statue in the center of the square. The statue depicts a woman dressed in ornate purple armor with violet ornamentation, holding a long sword in her right hand, the tip of which is pointed forward, full of unstoppable spirit. Her long golden hair was gracefully scattered behind her like a waterfall, and a pair of ice blue eyes stared ahead, with a hint of awe-inspiring air that made people dare not look directly. What kind of woman is this, the two completely different temperaments of elegance and iron and blood, are perfectly integrated in her body, without the slightest unnaturalness, as if it should have been.

Caroline raised her head and looked, "Senior Sister Sally, is this the statue of the legendary first generation of deans?"

Sharisy nodded: "This statue is indeed carved by the first generation of Dean Donna, it was this heroine who overcame countless difficulties in the blood and fire of the war, founded the Violet Academy, and guarded the academy through crises with her own strong strength. It is said that when Dean Donna was still there, even the Thorn Academy and the Demon Martial Arts Academy were slightly inferior. ”

At this time, Snub Xing suddenly asked, "Then what happened to this dean?"

"Huh?" Sally and Caroline were both stunned, along the way, it was basically Caroline and Sally talking, and Snub Star never interjected, so at this time, Snub Star's question surprised the two.

"I ......remember," Sally thought for a moment, "since the second Dean took over, the first Dean has disappeared, and is said to have stayed in the Academy. Of course, it is definitely no longer there now, tens of thousands of years have passed. ”

Snub Xing asked again, "So, what kind of strength has this dean-sama reached?"

Sally felt inexplicable: "What kind of strength? Of course it's god-level, isn't every dean of the academy god-level?"

Snub Star frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with her answer, but didn't continue to ask.

At this time, Caroline found that there was a sentence engraved on the base of the statue. Sulice also noticed Caroline's discovery, and explained to Caroline: "This sentence was said by the first Dean, and was adopted by the second Dean as the motto of Violet College, and later engraved when this statue was built. ”

Caroline looked at this sentence, and there was a trace of shock in her heart, when the dean said this, what kind of lonely state of mind should it be? What she did was not understood, only she maintained this belief and moved forward with difficulty. She couldn't help but wonder if she had given up in this situation, and maybe this was the reason why these heroes were heroes.

With this in mind, Caroline followed in Sallyster's footsteps and walked forward. Next to her, Snub Star seemed to be thinking about something, a little absent-minded, and the three of them left the square with their own thoughts and headed towards the dormitory area. And in the square, the sculpture of the first dean stands motionless, overlooking the pedestrians who come and go. The words engraved on the pedestal, after a hurried glance at the pedestrian, may leave a little impression, or no impression at all, just like the man tens of thousands of years ago.

"I had to walk on the same path as the martyrs and the clowns, and all men were to extinguish the fire, and I alone lifted the fire high. ”
