I stood in front of a huge two story mansion reflecting the moon's purple color on the mansion walls. The pathway to the mansion is lit up with street lights.
A woman who seems like she is in her early 20's came out of the main door wearing a maid outfit, and greeted me bowing in a 45 degree angle.
"Welcome home Mr.president.". "I have been expecting you."
Grace
A maid working in the student council dormitory.
'Welcome home huh.'
I greeted her back with a nod.
I walked in front and she walked behind me as we entered the house.
"Your belongings have already been placed in your room, Mr. President." said Grace as she walked behind me.
"They were delivered by your butler this morning."
I suddenly stopped in my tracks.
"Did he say anything?" I asked in a firm voice.
"No Mr.President. He left without saying anything." Grace replied to me in a calm and composed voice.
"I see." I said in a firm voice.
As I started walking on the stairs.
Grace paused in front of the stairs.
"I will prepare your meals." Grace said in a calm voice with a gentle smile on her face.
"Do you have any requirements Mr.President."
"No. anything's fine." I answered in a firm voice.
Grace bowed to me at a 45 degree angle and walked away from me to the kitchen.
I walked through the stairs and opened the door to my room.
The room is a wide space with a king sized double cot bed, a desk at the corner of the room and a closet.

I came out of the bath and fell on the bed with my face on the pillow.
'Starting tomorrow I have to practice to become strong. Or else they will kick me out of the Student Council, if they find out I am weak.'
'Back in my world I was Silver Medalist in the National Kendo Championship.'
'But in this world mana exists, so I am considered weak by this world's standards.'
'First I have to learn the concept of mana and how it works. I am starting from scratch again so this feels kinda exciting.'
***
I got up from my bed and walked through the corridor.
'I wonder what's there for dinner.'
'...I was tired so I said anything's fine but I hope it's good.'
As I walked down the stairs and got a view of the dining hall, Grace placed utensils in order on the dining table.
The dining table is filled with a wide variety of foods. There is meat, vegetables and even fruits.
'What is this? Is there a festival today?'
Grace bowed to me and walked out of the dining hall. As I walked towards my chair, Aurora greeted me as she waved her hand with a smile.
"Hi. President ~ ".
I sighed inside and glared at her and sat on my chair.
"Hello, Brunswick."
Aurora smiled at me gently.
"Call me Aurora, President ~ ".
"I am sorry. I would prefer not to, to someone I am not familiar with ."
"You are hurting my feelings, President~." said Aurora, pouting her lips.
I smiled unknowingly.
Aurora noticed my smile which took her by surprise and started teasing me.
"You smiled."
'Damn it, I lost my composure.'
I quickly regained my composure.
"No, I didn't." I replied in a firm voice.
Aurora continued her attack playfully.
"No, you definitely smiled just now."
'I have to change the topic.'
"Food is getting cold. Let's eat." I told her in a firm voice.
Aurora noticed me trying to change the topic and gave a playful smile.
"Do you want me to feed you?" Aurora asked in a playful voice.
I glared at her intensely.
"I will stop."
***
After a while.
We almost finished eating dinner.
I glanced at Aurora.
"...Do you know a place where I can train alone? " I asked Aurora in a firm voice.
Aurora smiled at me playfully.
I looked at her firmly with determination.
Aurora noticed my determination and then immediately became calm and composed.
"Student Council members have exclusive training grounds. I will take you there tomorrow."
