“Just the three of you who haven’t enrolled.” The middle-aged male teacher is a little impatient, “hurry up to register it, take out the admission notice!”
“No?” As he takes out his notice, Carl asks curiously, “Isn’t the registration deadline tomorrow? Why has everyone already registered?”
“Nonsense, most people signed up the first day, and the rest also did yesterday, just the three of you haven’t enrolled now!” The middle-aged teacher is very dissatisfied, “You three little guys makes me unable to rest today, and I remember you!”
“So positive!” Nina mutters.
“You needn’t pay the tuition and accommodation fees, but you need to afford your own living cost. This is the key of your dormitory, with the dormitory number and room number on it. Here are your student cards with your class number on it. Finally, this book is the student handbook, remember, student handbook is the most important thing, you’d better look it over first.”
The middle-aged teacher, who seems to be in a hurry to leave, hands the items to them respectively and leaves at once after a few words. “Well, you can wait for the school day till the day after tomorrow!”
“Thank you, teacher.” Carl looks excited. By this time, he is officially a student at Royal Knight College.

“Let’s go and see the dormitory first!” Suggests Nina.
Nina’s proposal is approved by Rowen and Carl, and they went to the dormitory area together, looking for their own dormitory, although the three of them sign up together, but their dormitory is not together.
“We can go and see our own dormitory first and find our class and grade. At noon time, gather at the school door.” Rowen says after a moment’s thought.
“Well, good!” Nina and Carl nod at the same time, and the three disperse.
The dormitory area is located in the north district of the college, which is divided into two areas: the male dormitory area and the female dormitory area. The royal college of chivalry has strict management in this respect, and neither male nor female students are allowed to bring members of the opposite sex into their dormitories.
Dormitory conditions are quite good, for each student has a separate dormitory, although the room is not big, inside the daily supplies are all available, and students needn’t bring anything in, and they can start a new life here as soon as possible.
Rowen’s dormitory is the number A11, which is room 11 in building A, and he is satisfied though it isn’t as comfortable as home, but he has to admit that it is in better condition than his place at Wolf’s manor.
The only thing that worries him is that it is hard for him to find a place to study armored beasts. After all, there is no secret valley like the one near Mayor town.
Rowen rummages through the student handbook. It is full of details about the royal knights college and there are many rules students have to follow and Rowen glances through it and readies to go.
Dong, Dong……
The knock comes at the same moment, and Rowen wonders who is looking for him.
He sees a dark young man standing in the doorway. He is not tall, and a little fat. However, the clothes on his body are obviously the clothes for summoners. He also carries the badge of the summoner’s council certification, indicating that he is a level-II summoner.
“Is that Rowen Wolf?” Asks the swarthy boy politely.
“It’s me. You are?” Rowen is a little surprised that he has just arrived, and then someone is looking for him so quickly.
“My name is York Sean, you call me York.” That dark young guy grins, revealing a mouth of white dazzling teeth, “In the next four years, we will be classmates.”
“You are the Class D of summoning-I, too?” Rowen asks.
“Yes, and we’re the same mentor.” York smiles. “The tutor wants to meet all of us first, so that we can get familiar with each other.
“Now?” Rowen asks.
“Right now.” York nods.
“Well, I just want to go out.” Rowen is intended to go out, so he has no hesitation.
Through the student handbook, Rowen has some idea of the general situation. Although there are tens of thousands of students at the royal knights college, there are only three departments, namely magic department, warriors department and summoning department. The department of warriors has the largest number of students, then the magic department, while the department of magic has the smallest number of students.
The calling department is divided into five classes for each grade, and each class has 100 students. Among the 100 students, every ten students will be divided into a group, and each group will have a special tutor who will be responsible for the specific guidance of the ten students from the beginning to the end. It is said that there has always been fierce competition between tutors and groups, and many believe that this is why students at the RCS are so good.
“Luckily, our tutor is a beautiful woman who just graduated from here for 5 years. We are the first group students of her. By the way, her name is Catherine Walter and I heard that she’s pays more attention to you.” York gushes.
“Our group is weak, but the tutor said that you are recruited without examination, which means you must be very powerful; Well, I am a level-Ⅱ summoner, and all my summoning beasts are only second-level. Your summoner must be very strong, right?”
“Not bad.” Rowen does not know what to say for a moment, but he gives a vague, perfunctory reply. He was not examined, of course, but it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with his power.
During the conversation, they have come to a wide field, and it is said that this is the comprehensive activity field of the students. This is a large place which can hold tens of thousands of people at the same time, and there are many people on the field at the moment, some people are casting sorcerers, some warriors are competing, and there are also summoners wandering with summoning beasts.
“Oh, yes, that way, let’s go!” York suddenly raises his finger to the front. “Look, there’s master Catherine.”
Following York’s pointing, Rowen catches sight of a quiet woman in a black robe, tall and thin, not particularly good-looking, but worth the name beauty.
“Mentor Katherine, Rowen is here.” Says York, stepping forward quickly.
At this moment, there are nine pairs of eyes are looking up at Rowen. Besides Catherine, there are eight other students, three boys and five girls, plus Rowen and York, who happen to be five boys and five girls. It should be said that this group is a good match of men and women, but if the mentor is also considered, this group are controlled by females.
“I’m Rowen Wolf, sorry I’m late.” Rowen introduces himself in the shortest possible terms.
“Rowen, welcome to the royal knights.” Catherine smiles at Rowen. “I’m Catherine Walter, and you can just call me Catherine like others.”
“Yes, tutor.” Says Rowen casually.
Catherine glances at the ten. “Now that we are all here, I should say a few words first: we will spend the next four years together, and that I wish you to understand that in the days to come we shall be seen as one, sharing weal and woe, and that in the days to come we must help one another.”
Rowen doesn’t speak. He looks at the faces of the others as though they are all looking slightly disapproving.
“Don’t worry, mentor Catherine, we will help one another.” York says hurriedly , and this guy seems to want to please the teacher.
Catherine sighs softly, for she knows their minds. “Let us make self-introduction first and we can know one another for the better understanding.”
There is no silence this time, and Rowen is beginning to get a general idea of the group. As what York said, the group is weak, of course, the so-called weakness is only relative in terms of the whole summoning system. If you only look at the level of summoner, then the other nine people are better than Rowen.
Of the nine besides him, only one girl named Kate is a level-I summoner like him. Of the other eight, seven are level-Ⅱsummoners and one is level-Ⅲ summoner.
Everyone’s summoning beast is at least level-II, and Kate, the girl, has the strongest summoning beast. She has a level-IV summoner, while the level-III summoner, named Fron, has two level-III summoning beast and one level-II summoning beast.
“Rowen, you haven’t said yet, you don’t need to be tested, you should be better than the rest of us, right?” York turns the conversation back to Rowen, and everyone looks at Rowen, including Catherine, the tutor, who, does not have any detailed information of Rowen, either.
“I’m sorry, I’m just a level-I summoner.” Says Rowen faintly.
“Then your summoning beast must be very good?” York hurriedly asks, “What about the level? Five?”
Rowen shakes his head and is about to speak when York exclaims, “Higher? That’s six? Still not? You shouldn’t tell me it’s a level-X summoning beast, will you?”
“York, I want to tell you that, in fact, my summoning beast is only a mythical summoning beast.” Says Rowen slowly.
York suddenly opens his mouth, and people around are also temporarily silent.
“Then Rowen, your summoning beast is really a mystic one?” Catherine cannot help asking.
“Yes, tutor Catherine.” Rowen replies in an affirmative tone.
At this moment, Catherine cannot hide her disappointment on her face. This student who is supposed to be her greatest hope is actually the weakest student, which makes it a little hard for her to understand why he is admitted directly without examination.
