Meanwhile, Xavier headed for the dorm where he met the other awakened.
On his way there, he remembered getting a notification from the system and decided to check his status.

"Wow, I've got infinite mana. That's awesome," Xavier rejoiced within himself.
He glanced at the other status components and praised himself for at least having a decent one.
His eyes fell on the mana affinity and noticed it bore a null value.
"System, why is my mana affinity null?"
[Infinite Mana cannot be measured by status]
'I guess that makes sense, but wow this is awesome. Wait till Lyra hears of this. Speaking of which, I wonder what element she awoke.'
He walked a bit faster to depace the curiosity as well as to stretch his limbs a bit more.
'I still can't believe how speedy this magic healing was.'
He gave a little jump as he raced through the hall.
He walked moved a bit longer before sighting a wide door with a label on top.
The label read, Newly awakened.
He walked in and headed for the dorms but no one was around.
He spotted a janitor nearby and asked "Ma'am, pls where can I find the newly awakened? I have a friend I want to meet."
"Oh, I think they all just went out for lunch now. They should be in the cafeteria, just a few doors forward towards the left. It's through the big green door, you can't miss it."
"Okay. Thanks."
He quickly left and headed for the cafeteria.
As he made his way there, pleasant aroma of Eldorian dished filled the air.
"Men, this smells good."
Just then, the thought dawned on Xavier that since he was reincarnated he hadn't had a single meal up until now.
'I am so hungry right now. I think I'll have a dish or two while I'm there. I wonder if they have burgers?'
He spotted the wide green door and made his way into the cafeteria.
The room was packed with people. It was rowdy and the floor beneath was mockee with food particles and stains left behind by some indifferent people.
He spotted the serving booth and drowled on seeing all the delicious meals present.
'No wonder, there's so much people in here. The food her looks so sumptuous.'
Back in Aedes, the lunch lady particularly didn't like Xavier and so always served him leftovers from the previous day. Her meals weren't too good either. Most students buy their meals from restaurants before making their way to school.
Above all, Xavier wanted to find Lyra to tell her how his test went and his element.
He scanned the entire cafeteria from a point while turning through the view but could find her.
"Where could she be?"
Just then a poince came on him from behind.
"So your finally awake."
It was Lyra.
"Finally, I have found you."
"Heard you chickened out and fainted during the test."
"That is not how it went. Who told you that? Nevermind, I am starving right now an did need your help in deciding what meal to eat."
"Okay, the serving booth is over there. Let's go."
They made it to the booth.
"Two plates of tier 3 meat and bread please," Lyra told the lunch lady.
"I'm sorry, we are all out."
"Aww, but that's the best dish on the menu," she turned to Xavier and said " Guess we will have to settle for number two then."
She turned again to the lunch lady and said, "Two mushroom soup please."
'Just my luck. The first dish I get to try in this new world is mushroom soup. Yeah.'
"I am sorry, I really wanted you to try the meat. It's divine. The higher the tier, the more delicious it tastes. Probably next time we will try to make it early and try some."
Xavier though still grunty from the loss of a would-have-been-delicious meal, he threw a weak smile at lyra and said "No worries."
The food was ready and they soon grabbed their trays.
Xavier hesitated before grabbing his and lyra noticed and asked " What's the matter, not a fan of mushrooms."
"No, well ya but don't we have to pay for this?"
"Oh no. It's all free till after our orientation. The general decided to give us a complimentary welcome gift for making it through the test."
"Oh okay."
'Phew, I actually thought we would have to fight over who would pay for our meals.'
"Let's take a seat here," Lyra led Xavier to a table with some people already on it.
"Do you know these people?", Xavier asked.
"Ya, we go way back. I would like you to meet the gang," lyra said excitedly.
She first pointed at a fair girl with a crimson hair color nearest to her. "This is Rose Vermillion. We've known each other since kindergarten. She awoke fire."
Next she pointed at a boy sitting alternate to Rose. His name was Avon Lin. A white-haired boy with orange eyes who awoke lightning.
Following Avon was another boy. He seemed calm with his brown hair and green eyes covert with his coper coloured glasses sitting farthest from Lyra, Leo greens. Coincidentally, he awakened the forest element.
Lastly was Lyra herself.
She turned to Xavier and asked, unlike the rest, "Can you guess the element I awoke?"
"Me! Let's see. I think maybe… what's not taken. Metal."
"Nope."
"Ummm."
"Let me make it easier. I am a daily elementalist and both elements are in contrast."
"Really! Wow that is awesome.Light and Darkness."
"Nope."
"Earth and wind."
"Nope, really even with the hint. Okay, it's fire and water."
"Come on. I was almost there."
"So what of you?"
"Mine was light and a few others."
"Few others?", the group echoed.
[Warning: Celestial identity should not be revealed]
He had to think fast to satisfy their thought with something related but also believable.
"What I mean is that I performed a spell on the spot. Ya, I'm the one that crashed the virtual hall."
