Chapter 244: Wilderness Survival

The next day, after the Basics of Cultivation class, Eleanor and Ophelia made their way to the Wilderness Survival classroom on the third floor of the academy building. According to the information provided by the academy, this subject had only a single classroom... no offices, no auxiliary facilities, nothing else.

The room itself, however, was beautifully kept. It was large and square in shape, two of its walls lined with towering bookshelves, the other two adorned with paintings of exotic beasts in vivid colour. Yet, for all its decoration, the space was empty.

Ophelia even stepped back to glance at the sign above the door, just to be certain. The inscription confirmed they were in the right place.

They hesitated at the threshold, uncertain what to do next... when a voice spoke from behind them.

"Young Ladies, have you come for the Wilderness Survival class?"

Both turned. A gloomy old man was approaching from the corridor, his pace unhurried. He wore the indigo robe of a professor. His curly grey hair framed a face dominated by bushy eyebrows, while his eyes were clouded, almost white which gave him an austere, uncanny air.

"Yes, Professor," Eleanor replied evenly.

At once, the gloom lifted from the man’s face, replaced by a radiant smile. He came closer and gestured them inside.

"I am Professor Jiro Heinrix Frostspire," he announced warmly. "I am the sole instructor for Wilderness Survival. You may call me Professor Jiro. Come in, come in."

He led them into the classroom, walking to the far end where a broad wooden desk waited. Settling himself behind it, he waved them towards the rows of chairs.

"Sit down, sit down! Tell me your names."

Eleanor and Ophelia obediently took seats in the front row, directly before him.

"I am Eleanor."

"I am Ophelia."

Professor Jiro raised his eyebrows. "Ah! Fine names indeed! Now tell me, are you certain you wish to take this class as an optional course? Or have you merely come to gather a few tips?"

Eleanor carefully glanced around the room. "We came to take this course as our optional. We plan to finish it within this term."

She hesitated, then asked, "Um, Professor, did we come too early? The class seems empty."
