"Should we start letting everyone out of the bunkers now that the new Academy is complete?" The Headmaster asked, eager to get the rest of the day underway.
"I don’t see why not. Just get some teachers to work the lost and found pile. Everyone will be eager to recover what they can of their personal belongings, and then you can start sorting them into their new dorms.
You might want to send the teachers through first, though.
If they know the layouts, they’ll be better prepared to get their students into the right room for their skills and personality."
Opal’s avatar, an Elf with her wings on its back, waved at Karl to get his attention.
"We still have illusionary replicas of the rooms active. They can just look inside and pick the one that they like best. I will lock the doors as we run out of each specific design in their designated building." She suggested.
That sounded like a much more efficient method than making the teachers sort it out and analyze the choices. Fortunately, they had watched the process, and had some idea what each dorm was like.
That would let the students with individual tutors have an advantage.
Well, the individual tutors who were powerful enough to have been on guard above ground. So, only a few dozen of them at most, out of thousands.
"Headmaster, you can start bringing everyone up at your discretion. I recommend one bunker at a time, but you can prioritize however you want." Karl offered.
The Headmaster nodded. The best way would be to get the teachers settled first, but they couldn’t take all the teachers out of the bunkers and leave just students.
There would be panic, and that would slow down the rest of the process.
So, it would be best to settle the teachers last.
They could help the students get settled, then find their own new dorms at the end of the day. They would also have the most personal items to replace, as the students arrived with nothing, and everything they had was likely to have come from the Academy warehouse, which was collapsed, but mostly salvageable.
Looking at the collection of resources, Karl had to sigh. It was junk. It was all junk.
Fortunately for the Academy, they had a solution already created. The new supply room could turn out metal weapons and armour made of higher grade materials, and while they might not be enchanted, much less Runecrafted, they were still better than what was available before.
Earth Manipulation couldn’t make some of the higher grade metals, which were imbued with mana and carried their own magic. But for basic metals and stones, there was no trouble at all.
It could even make Mana Jade up to Overlord quality.
Good enough for anything that the Academy would be turning out in the near future. Even on the Dragon Isles, if you were getting close to Overlord Rank, you were normally well past your school years.
But he really should teach the skill to a few teachers in the crafting section how to use Runecrafting, so they could make better stuff for the students.
They had given the Golden Divine Academy a new garden, an Illusionary Domain with excellent growing conditions and intensified mana, thanks to a mana crystal designed to emit excess into the area. But while that would help them grow replacement magical resources, someone still needed to make the armour and weapons.
"Alright, we can give you one extra day off. No more than that or you’ll get fat and lazy."
The berserker smiled at the big man. Everyone in the Berserker Class knew that Tank couldn’t go more than a day or two without training, and that extended to his students.
Getting a third day was already an exception. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
What they didn’t know was that Tank had just realized that he could have a whole day to himself, testing the new training facilities with other teachers near his power level, if they gave the kids a long weekend.
"The lost and found, also known as the personal items we managed to recover from the rubble of the old Academy, will be open tomorrow.
For now, everyone line up single file next to this door.
Inside, you will find an illusionary domain with a representation of each of the dorm room styles available. You will pick one that suits you, and inform the teachers on duty, so they can assign you a dorm." Tank informed them.
"Certain doors will not open for you. If you can’t open the door yourself, you can’t choose that room. Having someone else let you in will not make the room available for you to choose.
Senior students get better dorm room options.
Sorry, not sorry." Opal’s avatar added.
