Chapter 36: The First Class (1)
Once inside, Mikael took his time to tour the room he would be living in for the foreseeable future. He was pleasantly surprised by how well-designed the 'apartment' looked. It exuded a luxurious vibe without being overly ostentatious, avoiding the excessive use of gold or other precious metals.
The apartment had two bedrooms—one serving as a guest bedroom and the other as the master bedroom. Both were furnished with spacious, comfortable beds, which Mikael considered the most important feature of any bedroom.
It also included a modern bathroom, a cozy living room equipped with a couch and a large TV screen, and a dining area featuring a sizable wooden table capable of seating multiple people. Finally, the last main area, apart from the training room, was the kitchen. It was fully equipped with modern appliances and ample storage space, ensuring all his culinary needs were met.
Mikael decided to skip the training room during his tour, knowing himself well enough to realize he'd be tempted to start training if he went in.
As he finished exploring, a self-deprecating smirk crossed his face:
'To think that my room here at the Central Academy, which is only temporary, is far better than my apartment back in the Records. That place doesn't even have a kitchen, and the worst part? I pay for it, while this one is free...'
He sighed.
'Yeah, it's kind of depressing. But let's not dwell on it too much—it'll only annoy me for no reason. Let's focus on what's important.'
With that, he approached the couch in the living room, where a bracelet, a uniform, and a small booklet was placed.
He picked up the booklet and began to read. The first section explained the bracelet and its functionalities. While interesting, it didn't provide much new information. However, when he reached the section about the uniform, he was pleasantly surprised.
'Oh, the uniform is enchanted—neat. It has self-cleaning, self-repairing, and size-adjusting enchantments. Honestly, these three may not seem like much, but they're incredibly useful in everyday life. The enchanter profession seems really interesting.'
