《Black Death》Chapter 7: The morning of School
Advertisement
░▒▓█►─═ Chapter 7 ═─◄█▓▒░
I woke up early in the morning like I used to do on the farm. Tetia and I both met each other outside in the hallway, and we looked around for the movement of people. We didn't see anything though. We only saw the servants going about their morning chores. We walked up to one and I asked, "Where is everyone? Shouldn't they be getting ready for school and work?"
He looked shocked to see me when he first saw me, and a layer of confusion crossed his eyes when I asked him this question. He responded to me by saying, "Everyone is still asleep sir. It is still only 5 in the morning. Only us lowly servants are up doing chores, getting ready for the masters' needs."
I was kind of confused. School didn't start this early. I looked back up to him and asked, "When does school start then, and do you know where we can get something to eat?"
The demi-human servant looked puzzled once again. He answered me saying, "School starts at 8 o'clock sir, and you do not need to worry about food. We servants will bring it to your room and feed you."
Now it was my turn to be confused. Feed me, why would they feed me? I answered him back saying, "it would be fine if you just bring both of our food to my room, and you don't need to feed us. Thanks for the information though."
This place was really weird. We went back to my room and talked and ate until it was time for school. We met Mina in front of the palace gates. She knew where the school was, so we had to follow her to it. The school was still in the inner city. It was a series of huge buildings, with a large clearing in the middle. I can only assume that is for magic battles. We walked in, and everyone was already in their rooms. I looked at Mina and asked, "Umm hey, are we late."

She looked back to me with her ever arrogant eyes and responded with an equally arrogant response, "No! Everyone else is just here early!"
I see that no one really wants to go against this girl, or the Royal family. We walked into class, and it was like they were all dolls made from the same factory. They all had on the same uniform, the same hairstyle for boys, the girls all had their hair up in braids, and they were all humans. I can only assume they were all nobles too. I immediately looked at mine and Tetia's clothing and knew that we stood out. The princess was probably used to this, but it was kind of embarrassing for us since we never been to a school before. The whole class and teacher stared at us with fiery eyes. The first day of school was already a mess.
