"Yaawn",

Ray woke up with a big yawn as he stretched his limbs to the limits while he was stills seated on the bed.

His eyes droopy as he hopped out of his bed and went towards the washroom. Walking in, he turned on the tap and,

"Splash",

Washing his face with water, then taking out a tube of toothpaste and spreading a bit on the brush,

"Shroosh!!, Shroosh!!",

Brushing his teeth and then,

"Waaaaa",

Gurgling his mouth with water to clear the remnants of toothpaste and spitting them out, Ray's droopy eyes became more energetic.

He used the toilet and then took a bath,

"tap.. tap..tap..tap",

He stayed under the shower for a total of 5 minutes before cleaning himself and walking out. He changed into his uniform for the academy, feeling completely refreshed a smile formed upon his lips.

"Creak!",

The door creaked as Ray walked out of the washroom and into the room. He glanced over where the second bed was and saw Sirius still snoring like a dog, Ray turned around and walked out of the room.

Yesterday,

After all the rooms and talks were done, it was decided that Ray and Sirius would be sharing one room while Tim and Noah would be sharing the other. On the other hand, the girls would be sharing the last room, which was the one that Elina had previously occupied.

It took them some time to set up the room and all that. Afterward, everyone went their way while Sirius went into his room to sleep.

"That guy could sleep anywhere, anytime, in any way", Noah spoke while earning himself a furious glare from Sirius who had turned around after listening to Noah's words.

"I was just joking", Noah replied nervously and retreated into his room.

Presently,

Ray walked out of his room and into the living room. Seeing the place empty, he walked towards the kitchen, got a glass of water, and then left the dormitory.

Walking out of the lift, Ray summoned the Academy's map in his mind and started walking towards the cafeteria.

It was currently 6 in the morning and the Academy was very silent.

A few souls were walking in the same direction as Ray, but they were not more than a dozen of them.

Ray continued to walk until he arrived at the cafeteria,

It was a wide spacious hall, with chairs, tables, and benches placed around anywhere you could find. Ray estimated that the cafeteria had the capacity of housing about 1000 people at one time.

Ray entered the cafeteria, and the swift aroma of food wafted through, making Ray's stomach churn in hunger.

Placing a hand on his stomach to console it, Ray walked towards one of the counters to obtain his breakfast.

Walking up to the counter, Ray did not have to wait in a long line as the cafeteria was mostly empty and almost no one was present at that time.

Ray walked in front of the counter and asked,

"Excuse me, sir, is breakfast being served at the moment or will I have to wait",

The man behind the counter was a pot-bellied middle-aged man who had a warm smile on his face while he cleaned the counter.

"Oh, young lad. You are quite early, almost no one cones for breakfast this early. As for the breakfast, you could tell us what you want from the menu. Though, it would take some time to be ready",

The pot-bellied man replied,

Ray nodded and said,

"Okay, I would like a toast, an omelet along with sausages and bacon. With that, I would also like a glass of fresh strawberry milkshake please",

The man took his order and asked Ray to wait for 10 minutes before the food would arrive.

Ray then paid the man for the breakfast, took a receipt, and sat down on a bench near the corner.

During the 10-minute wait, Ray settled his breathing and started meditating as he continued to observe the flow of mana in his body.

During the past few weeks, Ray had observed that the amount of energy, which he now called the Bloodline Energy, continued to increase as he got stronger. Moreover, it also started to influence his mana and strengthened it as it flowed through his body and then the mana core.

Due to all this, the refining of his mana core had been much faster than before, and currently, Ray was on the verge of a breakthrough.

However, Ray didn't attempt his breakthrough yet, it was because Ray wanted to hone his skills and strengthen his foundation before he moved on to the next stage.

It was also the same reason why he had not attempted to move onto the Advanced tier and stayed at the pseudo-advanced tier.

"Sir, your breakfast"

A waiter came over with a tray of food.

The man's voice made Ray lose focus. Ray opened his eyes and looked over at the man and nodded.

The waiter then put the tray of food on the table and walked away.

On the other hand, Ray looked at the tray full of food and swallowed,

He was very hungry and his stomach had also growled twice since,

Therefore, Ray threw caution to the wind and started to wolf down the food.

A few minutes later,

"Burp!!",

Ray burped in satisfaction as he felt his stomach filling slowly. The food was truly good. He had to thank the chef.

However, before that, Ray called the waiter and asked for a second serving.

The waiter came and took away the previous utensils and plates but looked at Ray weirdly.

Ray noticed this and thought,

"Did I say something wrong?",

Listening to Ray's thoughts Aurora laughed and said,

"You didn't say anything wrong, no. You did nothing wrong, it's just that you ate the food in quite a peculiar way",

Ray was even more confused. He asked,

"What do you mean by saying I ate peculiarly? would you care to explain?",

Aurora went silent for a moment before she laughed again, controlling herself, she said,

"Why don't you take a look at your hands",

"Hands??",

Ray muttered and looked down at his hands and then he saw what she meant,

His hands, well were covered in food, and looked quite nasty.

Ray now understood,

He was so hungry that he didn't use any spoons forks or any utensils to eat food and most probably ate the food like a caveman,

Thus, earning him such looks from the waiter.

"Thank God, the cafeteria is empty. Or else my reputation would be ruined even before the classes started",

Ray then carefully looked at the mess he had created and sighed,

"Hunger had gotten the better of him. But what could he do, he had practically worked out all night yesterday as he was training his sword skills.

That is also why he didn't go for his usual morning training today,

Thinking of salvaging the situation, Ray took a few tissue papers and cleaned his hands and face, followed by cleaning the table.

A minute later, the table looked much cleaner and Ray sighed in relief.

Then, a couple of minutes later,

The waiter came in with the second servings, clearly expecting to find Ray eagerly waiting to make a mess again.

But what he saw left him speechless, because nor did he find Ray in the same mess he was before nor was the table a mess. The whole table was in a better state with no food anywhere while Ray smiled at him and said,

"I am sorry, I was really hungry. Had been tired so much that slept without having dinner, thus I didn't realize",

Ray, could only say as much because he wasn't much proficient in lying nor did he want to tell the man that he was training all night, lest the man mistakes it for something else.

The man nodded and put down the tray full of food and then left, clearly looking at him in a better light.

Seeing that he had managed to salvage the situation,

Ray cautiously started to eat with the proper etiquette.
