I Became A Flashing Genius At The Magic Academy

There were many good restaurants in this world. Of course, there were many on Earth as well, but in the Aether World, where there were many talented people, the proportion of good restaurants was even higher.

It was a world with a strong obsession with cooking.

He hadn’t been able to try delicious food for quite some time, and it was probably the same for Eisel too.

While Stella's meals were quite good, in the end, they were just school meals. And didn’t Eisel sometimes have to make do with bread instead of a proper meal because she had no money?

"... A gourmet club, huh? There are many similar clubs. What's important is whether we can get a stamp of 'external special activity' by doing this activity."

Even if they got permission to go out, everything was pointless unless they were officially allowed to hunt, which was a special activity outside.

Baek Yu-Seol glanced at Mayuseong, who was sitting next to him with a subtle smile, revealing his white teeths.

"Possible."

"Really?"

"Yeah. It's a gourmet club. It'll be much more fun than I thought, won't it? Anyway, it gives us a purpose to do the activity together."

"Well, I guess so..."

Was it really something to be so excited about? Eisel seemed to have that doubt.

"If we do that, we can get a lot of activity funding. Let's start a gourmet club."

Mayuseong readily agreed. Now there were two remaining issues.

"To receive the special activity stamp, we need at least one professor and a minimum of four members."

Eisel and Baek Yu-Seol looked at each other, then avoided eye contact.

They both had no friends.

Once again, it was Mayuseong who came to their rescue.

"I'll take care of this part."

"Wow..."

"Awesome."

Bringing in another friend shouldn't be a problem, considering Mayuseong gave off a very sociable vibe and probably had plenty of friends.

"But… I don't think I can get a professor to sponsor us."

"Why not? You were able to get permission for the special outing."

"It's just… All the professors are jerks."

"Oh, really?"

Mayuseong smirked, and for some reason, it sent shivers down his spine. He quickly nodded in agreement.

Once they finished discussing the club formation, Eisel stood up and said, "I'm going to head out first. Our next class is at the Seventeenth Tower."

Baek Yu-Seol absentmindedly looked out the window. The Stella Academy, with its massive castle and multiple connected towers, was so enormous that just walking around it could take ages.

It was quite a trek from the Third Tower, where the Class S was situated, to the Seventeenth Tower.

Even from this vantage point, one had to crane their neck and squint to catch a glimpse of it in the distance.

To reach it, several warp holes and bridges had to be crossed along the way... It was possible that they had meticulously organized their lectures but failed, forcing them to change classes and resulting in this predicament.

"Oh... It would be nice to exercise. Cheer up.”

"… Don't be sarcastic.”

After saying that, Eisel left the classroom followed by Mayuseong.

"I'll go fetch the registration stamp.”

Watching Mayuseong's retreating figure, a sudden question occurred to him.

‘But not anyone can get the special stamp so easily?’

However, he didn't dwell on it too deeply.

‘It'll probably be one of them anyway…’

Mayuseong made his way to the 79th floor of the First Tower, clutching the club application form.

Archie Hayden, the vice-principal, a Class 8 mage, and the advisor of Stella Academy, rushed out eagerly to welcome Mayuseong upon hearing of his arrival.

"Oh, please come in, Young Master."

"Yeah, it's been a while."

"Hehehe. I'm pleased to see that you've grown up so nicely. How's life at Stella?"

"There are many interesting friends here, so it's enjoyable."

As Mayuseong grinned, Archie Hayden furrowed his brow slightly.

'What is this psycho bastard thinking again...?'

He forced a smile and asked, "So, what brings you here?"

"It's a club application form. I need you to stamp it."

"What's this...?" Archie Hayden pushed up his glasses and scrutinized the club application form with a skeptical look. It was none other than Mayusung applying for the club.

If anyone he knew heard about it, they would be shocked and astounded.

"Ahem, I see. A club application form. First, let's check if it meets the establishment criteria..."

No matter what, the minimum requirements for founding members must be met. Archie Hayden reached out his hand towards the application form, intending to review its contents, but Mayuseong covered it with his palm.

As he slowly looked up, he noticed a shadow lurking behind Mayusung's smile. It was a very dark shadow.

"There's no need to read the contents, right? Just stamp it."

Archie Hayden felt a deep and perplexing unease from Mayusung's gaze and unconsciously withdrew his hand.

He must not resist any further. As long as the boy in front of him was the successor of "that man," he absolutely...

With beads of sweat trickling down his forehead, he reached out under the desk and took out the stamp.

"... Yes, of course."

As Archie Hayden stamped the document, he subtly spoke to Mayusung, who quickly snatched it.

"I know. Thanks. I'll be on my way now."

Saying that, Mayusung quickly left the principal's office.

Thunk!

After seeing the door close, Archie Hayden, who had been standing frozen for a while, finally plopped down on his chair and let out a sigh.

"A half-baked prodigy and so arrogant..."

‘To think he is the son of that man, I can't understand how they can be so similar.’

‘But that too will soon come to an end.’

The moment his chance arrives, he would crush that arrogant man’s neck in an instant.
