Chapter 397 Junior
Evelyn Miller, Edward Clark, and Odell Taylor strode confidently through the grand entrance of Vermont Academy. After about three years of training under the tutelage of the Master, they were finally allowed to enter the Academy.
"Let's not waste this opportunity given by Master…" Evelyn said to her fellow disciples.
Edward and Odell nodded in agreent. This was their only way to pay back the kindness they had received.
They were here to expand the influence of their Master, Heinz Becker, and his Malefic Branch, an unexplored and powerful branch of the Dark Arts.
"Uhmm… But should we really et the first disciple? Vale was it?" Odell asked.
"I don't really want to since he barely received training and advanced potions from Master Heinz. He only learned from Master for about a year. At that ti, Master Heinz hadn't perfected his potions yet. I guess he won't be as great as the three of us." Edward comnted.
Evelyn nodded at his friends as she was also thinking the sa thing. However, they have to listen to their Master. "Let's just greet him like what Master told us. We don't have to bother getting close to him. It will be embarrassing if he doesn't perform well in the Academy and will disgrace our Malefic Branch."
Odell nodded in agreent. "That's true… Our nas will soon be known in the Academy and the Dark Arts Faction. It would be shaful if our senior wasn't as powerful as the three of us."
They looked down upon Vale, considering him rely the first experintal subject of Heinz, lacking the proper care and attention they believed they had received.
On the first day of their class, their Spirit Strands were asured and turned out to be 14 Spirit Strands. Their nas were imdiately spread throughout their batch.
In this batch, with only an average of 6 Spirit Strands, it is indeed considered higher. Furthermore, the first-year students of the previous year only had 12 Spirit Strands as the highest, so the Professors couldn't help but praise the three.
"Right… Let's et with him after a few weeks. Let's first familiarize ourselves in the Academy." Evelyn suggested as she couldn't find the Energy she needed to et with their senior. She felt too lazy to do it.
Edward and Odell were also not interested in their senior, so they imdiately agreed.

Evelyn, Odell, and Edward settled into their daily routine at Vermont Academy, eager to prove themselves and expand their knowledge of the Dark Arts.
Although they received so education from Master Heinz, the experts in the Academy are still on a different level.
Their days were filled with a multitude of classes, each designed to hone their skills and deepen their understanding of not just the Dark Arts but also the world of mysticism. It was different from the training or education when they were still at the manor.
In the mornings, they attended the Elentary Spirit Law Class, led by a seasoned professor who delved into the intricacies of spirit manipulation and the fundantal laws governing the spiritual realm. They learned several thods to channel their energies, establish connections with the Dark Energy, and harness their powers precisely.
"It's indeed all basic, just like what Master Heinz had ntioned..." Evelyn muttered as she continued her study.
Next on their schedule was the Darkness Path Class, a subject close to their hearts as disciples of Heinz Becker. Under the guidance of a renowned Dark Arts expert, Professor Lucius, they explored the depths of the Realm of Darkness, one of the Twelve Arcane Paths in the world. They also studied the Darkness Possession, allowing them to realize how great it was for them to consu the second potion before even entering the Academy.
"We've really benefited a lot from Master Heinz." Evelyn comnted as she realized that other students who had enrolled had only consud the Darkness Possession Potion once!
"Indeed. The Second Darkness Possession here can only be claid if selected by a Professor. It could even last for two or three years long." Odell added as he felt grateful that he already consud his second potion.
In the afternoons, they attended the Fundantals of Magic Zone Class, where they delved into the understanding and manipulation of the Phantasm State.
They learned to control their Magic Zone better, manipulate the flow of the Energy, and cast spells with precision within their Zone. This was sothing they had learned from their Master, and took this subject quite easily.
Their schedule also included sessions in the Rudintary Usage of Mystical Artifacts, where they honed knowledge about objects with magical properties. They even learned to infuse mundane items with spells, enhancing their power and utility. Unfortunately, this type of enhancent couldn't be easily done in their first year.
Nevertheless, this class allowed them to explore the practical applications of various artifacts circulating in the kingdom.
Finally, after two weeks in the Academy, the three of them decided that it was ti to et their senior in his clubroom. They had already heard that a student nad Vale Chambers was a mber of the Club, so they didn't hesitate to visit him.
"He's already fourth year… I heard that the Twelve Academies Competition will now accept fourth-year students. Do you think that he'll be selected as a participant?" Evelyn asked as they headed to the clubroom's building.
"Ugh… I hope so. That would sound great, but let's not hope too much." Odell replied.
"Haha… I guess his Spell Dispersion is still at the early stage… Since we're already in the middle stage, we could probably replace him in the competition." Edward added with a laugh.
"Oh? Aren't you the Fantastic Three? Ahem… I'm sorry, I'm Nadine, a mber of the Battle Arena Committee… Are you thinking of joining our Club?"
Nadine asked as she saw the three first-year students in the Hallway.
Seeing the number of eight-angled stars in her uniform, the trio imdiately recognized that she was a ninth-year student.
"Ah… Senior Nadine, we're looking for our Senior Disciple, Vale Chambers. Is he in the clubroom right now?"
'Senior Disciple?' Nadine repeated in her mind, but she didn't think too much of it.
Her eyes lit up as she felt that it was a good thing that there would be more juniors in their Club. They were really lacking so personnel right now. Furthermore, most of their officers had already graduated.
"He's inside the clubroom now… I will give you so private ti. We don't have activities today anyway." Nadine said as she gestured for the three to enter the clubroom.
The three accepted it as they thanked the senior.
With their heads held high, the trio approached Vale's clubroom...
They entered the room with a dismissive air, barely acknowledging Vale's presence.
