"Now, on to 'Activities'. Safemoon Academy will cover all your basic needs, from meals to education, everything that is absolutely necessary to turn you into capable mages." 

"During your stay here we guarantee that you will live a comfortable life, although of course there is the option of turning the next five years into an extravagant stay." 

"You don't want to stay in the dorm rooms provided to you? No problem, you can move to a private room, or even live in a special pocket space built to your liking!" 

"Why not have special robes or wands as well as staves made from high-class materials compared to the basic ones the school will hand out? Why not enjoy absolutely gourmet meals rich with nutrients instead of the upper-middle food the cafeteria will prepare for you?" 

"We all know that sapient nature forces us to seek such pleasures and gratification over each other, cloaked in many forms. Safemoon Academy caters to your needs, and we do it fairly." 

Elijah nodded to the excited crowd below. "You guessed it, like all other academies out there, we have our own internal currency called the Safemoon. You can use it to acquire extra things, purchased through Martin as usual. From food to accommodations, even the rights to leave the academy, or sexual favors if you so like." 

Many lads and lasses blushed at the mention of sexual favors, but the adults nodded. An academy like this that was basically a boarding school and one that was mixed-sex would create certain tensions in these youths if they spent all year around each other. 

Relationships would form between them, and as many already knew, more than a few of the students would find corners to express their growing desires. It happened in every high school with pubescent teens and pretending otherwise would just further aggravate the problem. 

Like with anything in society, trying to crack down on this would make people want to do it more, and they would go to shocking lengths to find unsafe and very unwise ways to achieve it, so it was wiser to regulate it. 

Some understood this, some didn't. However, they knew better than to interrupt this black-hearted Principal lest he marked their wards down to be treated worse than the others. 

"So the main question is, how to acquire Safemoon? It's simple really. You can take extracurricular activities to achieve this purpose. There are many ways to acquire Safemoon quickly." 

"The first is to challenge the Tower of Power. There, you will face off against various monsters reproduced through Spirit Magic and Runic Arrays. The higher you climb, the more points you earn. Specifics will be shared to you by Martin when you reach the Tower and plan to challenge it." 

"The second is to apply with Martin to challenge Safemoon City's dungeon. You will be free to kill as many as you want, however, for your own safety I can only advise you from large groups until you have sufficient strength. 

"We only care about the resources you bring back, they will be directly sold to the academy for Safemoon for your own use. Remember though, unlike the Tower of Power where we can eject you upon fatal danger, you will be on your own in the dungeon." 

"Naturally, all points earned through the dungeon are quadrupled, so it is far faster and more efficient than challenging the Tower of Power, but it is also fatal and will be more difficult. The choice is in your hands." 

"The third and final method is to produce goods. For example, your mandatory courses include Alchemy and Smithing classes because a mage must always be able to make their own tools. If you are skilled enough, you can craft in your off-time and sell them either to each other or to the academy for Safemoon." 

"This option is for those who are not interested in the path of a Battle Mages but rather in being Research or Artisan Mages. We have separate courses for the two which you will be assigned to after the first year depending on your performance." 

"For 'Graduation', it is quite simple. We enroll students for a maximum of five years and you can graduate as early as your first year if you so choose." 

Elijah rubbed his fingers on his chest and wore a nonchalant expression. "After all, we are taking in only the best talents and using top-of-the-line products, so it is not impossible to have monstrous geniuses graduate in the first year." 

"To graduate successfully, you need to acquire a total of 104 academy credits, 23 basic certifications in all our courses, and reach the middle Master stage at the least." 

When Elijah dropped this bombshell, the entire hall went silent as they gazed at him with shock and incomprehension. Was it that the Principal was joking around or were their ears failing them? 

So many qualifications were required to graduate? Wait, more importantly… 

"Sir, what is the penalty for failing to acquire the qualifications to graduate within those five years?" One Elite Class student asked respectfully. 

Elijah smiled benignly and answered: "You will still graduate, but under failure honors. That means you won't get any benefits that come with graduation like citizenship or your military service." 

"You will be treated as if you had been an 'external genius', meaning your military service will become an indenture contract for 20 years where you will fight for the city without receiving any pay or compensation." 

Many gulped at the sound of this, their legs shaking, especially Common Class students. If anyone had a chance of failing, it would be them. They wondered whether it was too late to turn around and leave? 

Elijah saw this and rolled his eyes, softening his tone. "Use your heads. If the academy set such strict criteria for admission, it means that we are sure that following our plan, you will reach the targets." 

"The only thing that can make you fail is if you become lazy. Heck, even if you have been allowed entry this time with a D grade talent and potential, you will still be able to easily make that target in 4.5 years at most, giving you time to push in some extracurricular activities!" 

Hearing this, many sighs of relief were heard in the room, both from parents and students alike.
