Single Mother of a Werewolf Baby novel Chapter 230

Chapter 230: Course Selection

The first class with Professor Sylpha had been so absorbing, so heavy with knowledge and presence, that most cadets hadn’t even noticed the hours slipping past. It was only when she left that the spell broke, and the lecture theatre filled with the shuffle of movement, the scrape of chairs, the murmur of voices ready to spill out into the corridors.

But just as they were about to exit, a melodic voice crackled from the beautiful speaker embedded above the stage.

"Cadets, you have now been assigned your Major and Optional Courses. Each of you must complete two Mandatory Courses... Basics of Cultivation and Introduction to Supernatural Ethics & Law. You must also choose one Major Course, based on your elemental affinity, and two Optional Courses of your choice in order to pass the term. Please press the blue button on your personal device for further instructions."

A ripple of curiosity swept through the hall. Eleanor, who had risen with the others, sank back into her seat and tapped the blue button on her wrist device. A translucent screen unfurled before her eyes.

Eleanor exhaled through her nose. As expected, no alchemy... no forging. "Nora," she asked in her mind, "what do you think?"

Nora’s voice answered at once, calm and analytical. "Master, this was predictable. Without fire-related ability, alchemy and forging are closed to you. But notice... Fundamentals of Psionics has been offered. The academy clearly recognised your bloodline. They must be expecting you to take it, and I advise you to do so."

Nora’s tone sharpened slightly. "As for your second optional, all four are valuable. Cultivation History and Paths and Familiar Handling & Care you can study later, from books. Introduction to Formation and Arrays suits me... I will excel at the calculations. But Wilderness Survival is critical for you. Your Trial in Vanaheim will not forgive ignorance of the wild. So, my recommendation is Psionics and Survival. The final choice is yours."

Eleanor closed the screen with a soft tap, lips tightening in thought. The hum of voices around her seemed very far away.

Eleanor thought for a moment, then said in her mind, "We don’t have any more mandatory classes today. Let’s head to the Department of Combat and select my major. There are no textbooks given for that subject in my dorm; maybe they’ll have a library. After that... we’ll decide what’s next."

"Good decision," Nora agreed smoothly in her mind.

From beside her, Maira leaned in, curiosity in her eyes. "Eleanor, which optional courses did you pick?" Her seat was close, thanks to their cadet number sequence.

"I haven’t confirmed yet," Eleanor replied. "But I’m leaning toward Fundamentals of Psionics and Wilderness Survival."

Maira tilted her head, puzzled. "Psionics? I’ve never even heard of that course."

Eleanor kept her tone even. "It’s not usually offered to first-terms. You’ll see it later if you return for advanced studies."

Before Maira could ask more, Kiara and Ophelia came up behind them, catching the tail of the conversation. Ophelia spoke first. "Ma’am, if you’re taking Wilderness Survival, I’ll join that class too. My major is under the Department of Shadow, so I’ll use combat as one of my optionals."

Eleanor raised a brow. "Combat is available as an optional for you?"

Ophelia nodded. "Yes. One of the choices."
