Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

Chapter 347  Dormitories

Located next to the Vagoth Forest, the capital of the Empire of Dixon, the city of Jeffer, was situated slightly eccentrically in the middle of the empire. Built over a 70th-floored dungeon, the Imperial Capital was the biggest city, in terms of area, on the continent until recently. The Imperial Capital was a melting pot of races and cultures on the continent. Housed over three million people, the city of Jeffer was undoubtedly the densest and most populous settlement in the landmass. Infested with countless monsters, like vast and dense forests, dungeons were a risky way to earn a fortune. When a certain condition is met, diving into a dungeon could be the safest way to make a living at the same time. Many individuals attempted to conquer the dungeon like the demon lord eons ago. All conquests failed until the hero, who ended the rule of the demon lord on half of the continent, managed to capture the dungeon. The hero then became the first emperor of the empire. As the largest dungeon city known on the continent, the city attracted adventurers from all over the continent and constantly populated the place. With the staggering population, there were countless structures and systems built to accommodate the needs and desires of the citizens. Like the typical nation, the monarchy was established in the empire. Hailing from the brave warriors who fought with the first emperor, countless nobles were made from generation to generation throughout the history of the empire.

The current emperor still had traces of the first emperor's blood coursing through his veins. It was due to the fact that ownership of the dungeon would be granted to the heir according to the titles on one's status board, in other words, in a directly descendant manner. As the central figure of the continent, the empire had established various measures to improve the quality of its government and provide better service to the populace. One of those major measures was the construction of an institution for nurturing young nobles, the Dixon Imperial Academy. "We met again, the Imperial Capital." After pulling over the carriage in front of the patio of our manor in the Imperial Capital, my sister and I disembarked from the vehicle, meeting the cool urban spring air of the empire. Mother went to the imperial palace first for formal matters. Soon after, the servants, who were lined up at the entrance, began to approach the other carriages and pick up our luggage. "The new school year will start a few days from now on," my sister noted as we entered the mansion. "So we will be spending a few days here before we move to the academy's dormitories." "Yeah, Sis. Let's enjoy our short vacation while we can." I stretched my arms as I walked. "This place holds a special place in my memory as this is the place where we did that...you know?"

"...Please don't make me remember how I acted at that time, Raphael." As I recalled that, Big Sis's cheeks turned red as she averted her gaze from me. I kind of understand her since I would be furious if someone touched my girl. Not to mention that I was the one who fucked her lover several times and streamed the nights to her, so I was to blame. "Hey, Sis, we still have time before Mother comes home for lunch. Wanna do a quickie?" "...Okay, we'll do it, but in your room." "Okay, okay." After that, I held her hand before we teleported directly to my bedroom. We did three rounds before Mother came back and joined us at the table for lunch. Later at night, we went to the Imperial Palace, as they had prepared a banquet for us, as every country does for visiting royals. They also offered us a place to stay—one room for each of us. Naturally, we accepted it, and we spent the night in the palace. ◆◇◆◇◆◇ Nôv(el)B\\jnn

It had been three days since our arrival at the Imperial Capital. Everything seemed pretty normal, except that we were getting more and more popular in the city. As new royals, we immediately became the talk of the town, and we even received a few marriage proposals, which we ignored or politely declined. Regardless of the political and diplomatic matters, my sister and I were currently inside the academy's campus days before the opening. Being the best institution for education on the continent, the academy had a vast campus in spite of being inside the highly densely populated capital. When we got to the dormitories, Big Sis and I separated and went to our respective buildings; she had to go to the girls' dorms, and I was heading my way to the boys' dormitories with our luggage in our hands. In spite of possessing some magic bags and my Inventory extra skill, having our stuff in a bag rather than an artificial space felt more socially acceptable. As a second year student, Big Sis would be naturally staying in the dorms for two years. She could not stay in her last room, as it would be used by a freshwoman. The dormitories were as luxurious as the first-class hotels in the city. They got a lobby on the first floor, complete with a well-dressed receptionist who was standing professionally at a desk. There were so many people in the lobby, so I approached the receptionist and gave him my information. But when he heard my name, knowing I am a royal and an actual marquis myself, the receptionist immediately bowed his head. "Welcome to the dormitory, His Highness Raphael Raevender! Please let me guide you to your room as well as carry your luggage!" "I greatly appreciate it." The other staff of the dorm took my luggage, and then the receptionist guided me to the second floor, where my room was. By the way, there were no things such as higher-class dorm buildings and rooms here, as the academy promoted them equally among the students, no matter their rank or status. But from the sudden change of the receptionist, I could tell that there was still a kind of caste system, and the staff probably treated a student differently based on their status. "Here is your room, Your Highness, and here is your key. If you have any issues, please don't hesitate to approach the desk." "I will do it, and thank you." The staff dropped my luggage near the door before they bowed once again and left. I used the key to open the door and let myself in along with my things. The room was not exactly spacious and did not have a bathroom inside as usual. I scanned the room and found that my learning materials, such as textbooks, were already there. I closed the door and put my luggage aside before I threw my back on the fluffy bed. "Three years of academy, huh." I muttered. For the next three years of my life, I would spend most of my time here, though there were a total of five months of school vacation per year: two months of summer break, the second and third months of winter, and the first month of spring. It was true that I had learned many things from the people around me, but I still had so many things to learn. Other than learning, the academy was also a place for socializing and making acquaintances, as well as a good place for finding partners. "Well, I hope my days in the academy will be great."
