Inhuman Warlock

What was the Dean doing? Just because Lucifer sang well, he got the permission to skip one yearly exam? This was like a free pass to get to the next year without even passing the threshold.

As for the students, they looked at Lucifer in jealousy. This was a fantastic reward. He basically had one free life now.

"That's it for the Orientation. I'm leaving. From here on out, the teachers will take you to your classes and give you more information. Best of luck, youngsters. I'll see you after five years now," the Dean told the students as he clapped lightly.

Another Spatial Portal appeared in front of him.

Dean Xaen stepped inside the portal, and it closed, leaving only the teachers behind.

"Class A students, follow after me," Franci stood up as he commanded.

The one Class A student that was still sitting on the front row stood up as he also got on the stage to join others. All six of them followed behind Franci as they left.

Jason was left behind, frowning.

'He got Franci as his main teacher? This might be hard for him. Dash has it much easier.' he thought. 'The last Class A got Yovann as the main teacher. This batch's luck is terrible.'

"Class B students, follow after us." Yovann stood up as he took Class B students.

As for the other three teachers, they took Class C to give them more briefings. They weren't going to be teaching them, but they were going to introduce them to their other teachers.

While Class A received Five Elder teachers to teach them, the other class only got them to give brief courses. As for their real teachers, they were going to be different from Class A.

Lucifer and the five other students of class A were sitting in a luxurious room in separate seats.

Franci was standing before them behind a table.

He opened the drawer and pulled out five booklets that he gave to the kids.

"These are the rules. When you leave today, memorize them," he told everyone calmly before he stepped back to his seat.

"The first day is only for introduction and to make you understand where you are, but from tomorrow, your classes will begin."

"The five teachers you saw on the stage will teach you about your gifts and how to control them. You'll also have more teachers that will teach you about the mortal aspects of the lives that you need to learn like computers, swimming, martial arts, and many more."

" You need to excel in all those departments as well, as they will play an important role in your scores in the yearly exam. Don't take them lightly."

"Anyway, tell me about your gifts now," Franci told the students. He glanced at Lucifer and began, "You go first."

Lucifer stood up as he said, "I have Super Strength."

"Super Strength? Interesting. We'll see tomorrow," the man muttered. "Next, Dash."

As he called Dash, his grandson stood up.

"I can control the Wind," Dash said proudly.

"Next, Cassius," Franci shifted to the next person without many reactions.

"My gift is called Divine Sword Mastery. I can use the divine energy in the attacks of any sword I use," Cassius answered calmly before he sat down as well.

"Next, Ren," Franci said.

The boy in dark glasses stood up.

....

The process continued as everyone described their powers.

As soon as everyone finished, Franci started speaking.

"All of you have decent gifts. That's why you're in Class A. But you must know, possession of a gift and mastery of it are different matters. That's what I'll teach you. I'll be teaching you how to understand your gifts better so that they feel like a part of you and not an ability."

"Grandpa, what will others teach?" Dash asked the old man, curious.

"Silence! If you call me Grandpa one more time, you'll lose a finger. In the Academy, I'm not related to you. You'll be treated like all others. Call me Teacher Franci," the old man scolded his grandson for being so cozy.

Dash's eyes opened wide in surprise. What was happening? Why was the grandfather who loved him so much behaving like that? He thought he'd get preference here since his Grandpa was his teacher, but it seemed like that was going to be just dreams.

"I'm sorry, Teacher. What are other teachers going to teach us?" Dash asked again after apologizing.

The old man nodded in satisfaction as he started explaining.

"Yovann will teach you how to use your gifts to the best of your advantage and the different uses you can put your gifts to."

"Morbius will give you the training so that you're able to defend yourselves since once you die, your gifts will be useless. So defensive use of your gifts is needed too."

"Alexi will teach you the Art of Tricks. As for what that is, you'll have to understand that from him."

"And Mirali, she will teach you how to resonate your powers with nature. Again, you need to ask her what that is," the old man finished.

It also happened to be the time when the old man stood up.

He soon brought out a few packets that he gave to each kid.

"This has your uniform. As for your ID cards, that will be given tomorrow. Leave your files behind and leave. Come here again tomorrow, and we'll officially begin," he said as he walked back to his seat.

As the kids were given the permission, Cassius was the first one to stand up. He left the room with the uniform and the rule book.

Ren, Dash, and the others also left.

Only Lucifer was left behind, still seated.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Franci asked Lucifer, squinting his eyes.

"Ah, sir. I wanted to talk to you about this bracelet."

"What do you want to know?"

"As you already know, my strength is my gift. And I don't know where the threshold of it starts. I wanted to know if the bracelet will be active if I use my human strength or if I accidentally use my strength in the absence of others?" Lucifer asked Franci as he stood up.

This was the question that had been floating in his head.

"That's interesting. But no. It doesn't matter where you use your strength. The bracelet will be active as soon as you use your gifts, even if you're alone."

"So the only solution I can suggest is to use as little strength as you possibly can. In fact, don't do any task that can accidentally make you use your strength unless you're in the presence of a teacher. That's the only thing I can tell you."
