An Extra's POV-Chapter 795 The Grand Assembly

"Settle down, everyone! I have an important announcement to make."

Once the Practical Sessions ended, the students were given sufficient time to eat, discuss, and have fun overall. Rey ended up spending most of his time with the boys he befriended, who introduced him to other boys.

As for Lucielle, she practically did the same with the girls.

Only a few people, like Geo'rge, Y'ama, and—of course—Adonis, remained on their own despite the cliques that formed around the class. A'manda was also in the habit of that, but all of that changed when Lucielle forced her to participate in the girl clique, and she seemed to be fitting in well among the ladies.

It was while this was going on that Instructor Isra'il suddenly entered the class and used a more serious voice than usual to declare an announcement.

The moment he said this, everyone fell silent.

They all returned to their seats—as quietly as possible—and once they were all settled, their kept their gazes on the Instructor, who had waited patiently until everyone was ready to hear the news he heralded.

"The White Dragon Lord… is currently on her way to the Academy."

Once the bombshell landed, it seemed as though the class had become even more quieter than it was before. A hollow silence permeated the classroom, and tension rapidly began to build up as the students found themselves staring at each other and fidgeting.

What their Instructor just told them… was heavy news.

—Heavily amazing news!

"You are all to gather in the Central Auditorium for a Grand Assembly. Ah, also… this matter only concerns the 3 Basic Stages, so the other Stages will not be participating in this Assembly." The more Isra'il spoke, the more the tension spread.

It was clear that the students had a lot to say, and plenty more to ask, but he wasn't going to give them the time to get it out.

"The other Classes are being informed of this by their Instructors, so we are going to head over there once I'm done here."

Due to the oversaturation of Mana that would be caused by many people gathering in the Central Auditorium, teleportation to that location wasn't possible. Space would be too distorted for a stable mass teleportation measure—though the Dragons were currently working on how to get rid of that problem in their technology.

As a result, all the students had to walk there.

None of them seemed to mind, and were even displaying signs of overexcitement. Instructor Isra'il noticed all of this and decided not to hold his students back any further.

"Alright, everyone… let's go."

**************

This time, there were no cliques or separation between boys and girls: everyone was simply gushing about how excited they were for the White Dragon Lord's visit.

"I can't believe this is finally happening!"

"It's been months since I last saw her! I'm so excited!"

"Me too!"

"What do you think she came here to address?"

"What else? Hehehe!"

They chattered on and on as they walked to the Auditorium, especially to Rey and Lucielle—the two newest students in the Academy.

The White Dragon Lord was the Head of the Imperial Academy, which made her the most important figure on school grounds—of course, she was secondary to the Emperor, but still… Her authority on Campus was unmatched, even among the other Lords.

Other than that pertinent fact, she was also a Dragon Lord. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

It wasn't every day that students got to meet Dragon Lords, after all… especially the one who was said to be the prettiest of all of them.

Only those who dwelled in their Domains, or in the Capital, could boast a frequent encounter with Dragon Lords, and even they wouldn't have had many opportunities to hear a Lord speak to them directly.

It was for these reasons—and more—that the students were all excited.

To many, The White Dragon Lord was their hero.

Many dreamt of serving in her Squad once they became qualified, while other simply dreamt of the day they could speak with her.

"You're excited right? Right?!"

They expected Rey and Lucielle to display the same levels of interest as them, and the two did not disappoint.

"O-of course! I can't wait!"

"Me too!"

With such a festive mood in the air, the students of Class 1-A made their way to the Central Auditorium.

****************

'Damn… this is impressive.'

As expected of the architecture within the Dragon Empire, the Central Auditorium was elegantly designed—both in terms of its interior and exterior.

Rey had already been shown the exterior when Mi'ja was giving the tour, and while he was still amazed by the pristine design, it was the interior that really made him nearly gawk as soon as he entered.

It nearly resembled the setting of a royal court.

The clear floors seemed to be made with glass marble tiles, and the ceiling was so high up, that it felt like the heavens itself. There were flags raised on both left and right ends of the hall, with chandeliers reflecting pure white and golden rays on everything beneath them in order to grant more life to everything their light touched.

The Auditorium was large enough to contain every single Dragon in the Academy, so that spoke greatly of its size. However, since only the students of the Basic Stages were present, it seemed even bigger than normal.

Comfortable chairs were properly arranged in the hall, and their designs alone screamed luxury.

The central stage was elevated to such an extent that even anyone at the furthest side of the room could view the speaker. Designs that displayed wealth and prestige covered the walls of the Auditorium, and it was clear that no expense was spared in its construction.

It was simply an amazing haven.

'If this is how the Auditorium of an Academy is, I wonder what the premises of the Lords… and then the Emperor look like.'

This was even more luxurious than the Royal Council's palace interior.

Rey's comparison was cut short, though, as the sudden distortion of the space before him caused all his senses to focus right in front where it was taking place.

What seemed to be mist wafted around, creating what appeared to be a swirling gateway.

And within that gate emerged a woman.

—The White Dragon Lord.
