Extra Pages: The Author's Odyssey
Chapter 358: Student Council [1]

Every day was hell for Lucas, Not only he has to participate in Special training session 4 days in week, he also had to practice with Yato and attend the classes.

Lucas was buys then ever he was.

But thankfully, Yato has decided to give him a day off and today is not a day of Special training session.

Also, Today's classes were cut short for some unknown reason.

But Lucas wasn't going to complain as long as he get some extra rest.

Unfortunately, Lucas couldn't got to his apartment room and get some rest.

Why? Because everyone have been ordered to gathered in Nova Academy auditorium.

Because, they were ordered by student council.

'A student council...'

Lucas couldn't help but let out bitter smile on his... Because he was forgotten about existence of students council.

As an author of this novel...It shouldn't be neglected that he forgot about students council.

But what can he do? He was very busy and student council hasn't have any major contribution in original work.

And because of that he forgot about students council.

'I think I'm forgetting something very important.'

Lucas thought so, but soon enough he gave up as he didn't remember what he had forgotten.

Anyway, Students Council which manages the clubs consists of three parts, the Disciplinary Committee, Financial Department and Volunteers of Student Councils.

Each department heads its own President and Vice-President which is headed by the President and Vice President of the whole council.

All of their coordinates to maintain the whole student's body.

You can't join the student council on your own accord. The member of the student's council will analyse the students who are worthy of joining and ask them to join the council.

Joining the student council can boost your reputation as well you can have an authority in your respective year.

Lucas found Sunny and moved with him to the auditorium where the president gonna give the speech. He pushed Sunny forward as they moved along the crowd at the entrance.

He looked vertically at a white building in front of us and admired its magnificent architecture.

Sunny move. We can't stand here for the whole day." Lucas snapped Sunny to his senses and made thier away squeezing themselves for space to walk through the crowd, as today all 5000 students of the first year gonna be present in the venue.

As Lucas stepped inside, he flinched seeing how wide and big the auditorium was from inside, filled with students chatting with their friends while some people have met for the first time.

Mixing of all the students looked quite exciting, if not for our hierarchical society.

" Let's replace a seat quickly before every seat is taken"This time it was Sunny turn to wake up Lucas from his thoughts.

He chuckled listening to Sunny speech as this big auditorium was enough for 20000 people.

Eventually, they found a seat at the back rows as the front seats were all taken by the nobles or one can say they are all reserved for the nobles followed by their lackeys behind them and finally at the last commoner like us.

Still, the view was not bad at the top and it was quite relaxing and no one would notice us even if take a small nap.

Getting bored of looking around and just sitting here. Lucas stared at the stage which was still empty except for the single podium on it. He looked at the side of the stage to notice it was plated in gold.

Suddenly a small haze focused into form and the students saw Vice Principal Josh appearing out of nowhere standing behind the podium.

Vice Principal Josh had his eyes closed but as he opened his eyes he seemed to be looking straight at us noticing the expression of each student before him.

As the students noticed him, they erupted in cheers at the sudden appearance of the Head Master Hera. Smiling she raised her hands and all the noise stopped as if they never existed.

"I welcome everyone here, the future powerhouse of the next generation. It has been a long-standing tradition for the Nova Academy to cultivate the finest talents and prepare them for the challenges of the world. Today, we gather to introduce you to the Student Council, an integral part of our academy's leadership and administration."

Her voice carried authority and warmth, commanding the attention of every student in the vast auditorium. Lucas, sitting beside Sunny, felt a mix of curiosity and anticipation. The mention of the Student Council piqued his interest, reminding him of the power dynamics within the academy.

"As you know," Headmaster Hera continued, "the Student Council plays a crucial role in maintaining order, managing resources, and fostering a sense of community among the students. It is divided into three departments: the Disciplinary Committee, the Financial Department, and the Volunteers of Student Councils.

Each department is headed by its own President and Vice-President, all of whom are overseen by the President and Vice-President of the entire council."

Lucas scanned the faces of the students around him. Some looked eager, others indifferent, but all were paying attention. The Student Council, despite being somewhat neglected in the original novel, clearly held significant influence here.

"Please welcome the Student Council." Hera announced.

After calling the member of the student council, her figure disappeared turning into mist surprising many.

A tall and handsome boy walked out from behind the stage confidently, looking straight ahead at the audience, listening to the shrill screams of the girls among the audience, he gave a smile full of confidence.

Behind the guy, another one appeared waving his hands to the cheering girls who emerged with a big playful smile.

Following them were two beauties whose elegance were comparable to Emma, Evelyn, Isabella and Lyra, emerged giving a slight bow which made many boys hearts fluttered. Now it was the boys turn to scream seeing the beauties.

They all walked towards the centre of the stage and gave a small bow in each direction.

According to rules, the head of the three factions should consist of a boy and a girl where if one becomes president another becomes Vice President.

Behind them, walked a boy with a pretty face who can be said the most handsome man Lucas had seen till now in this world. His handsomeness is way above Adrian and Aric. He has a tall stature full of dignity with a mature appearance.

"He is the Vice President of student council's,Eric " Lucas spoke.

Tap.Tap.Tap

The entire auditorium turned silent at the entry of the person who now appeared on the stage, the President of the Student Council.

A young woman adorned in a pristine white uniform adorned with azure accents beneath a flowing cerulean coat commanded the spotlight.

Her waist-length hair, a cascade of shimmering silver, was elegantly gathered into a long ponytail that swayed with her movements. Her eyes, deep merlot pools, sparkled with a distinct radiance that seemed to originate from within.

Her complexion resembled polished silk, a testament to her elven heritage, and her lithe figure exuded an aura of both combat readiness and captivating allure.

However, it was her elongated ears that offered a clear declaration of her identity—an elf in her prime.

Combined with her petite yet dignified visage, she epitomized the essence of beauty.

The young woman leading the way was Seraphina Everglow.

She is the student council president.

Gulped

Everyone swallowed their saliva seeing her. Some were stupified to utter anything.

The audiences were stunned seeing her appearance as this was the first time most of them were seeing Seraphina Everglow in person. Her reputation preceded her, known not only for her beauty but also for her exceptional leadership and combat skills. Lucas, too, was taken aback, having only heard vague descriptions of her in the original work.

"Good afternoon, students of Nova Academy," Seraphina's voice was as mesmerizing as her appearance, carrying a serene yet commanding tone. "I am Seraphina Everglow, your Student Council President. It is my honor to welcome you all here today."

She paused, allowing her presence to settle over the room, before continuing. "The Student Council is here to serve and guide you. We are divided into three key departments, each with specific roles to ensure the smooth operation and vibrant life of our academy."

Seraphina gestured to the students standing behind her. "Let me introduce the heads of these departments. Leading the Disciplinary Committee are Marcus Bennett and Sophie Williams. They ensure that our academy maintains its high standards of conduct and discipline."

Marcus and Sophie stepped forward, giving a respectful nod to the audience. Their stern expressions underscored the seriousness of their roles.

"Next, the Financial Department, managed by Olivia Harris and Daniel Lee," Seraphina continued. "They are responsible for managing the funds and resources that keep our various programs and events running smoothly."

Olivia and Daniel acknowledged the crowd, their composed demeanor reflecting their meticulous nature.

"Lastly, the Volunteers of Student Councils, headed by Rachel Kim and Ethan Wright," Seraphina announced. "They organize and oversee volunteer activities, ensuring that we give back to our community and help those in need."

Rachel and Ethan stepped forward, their energetic and approachable attitudes clearly resonating with the students.

Seraphina then introduced Eric, the Vice President, who stepped forward with an aura of dignity and respect. "Eric, our Vice President, is the cornerstone of our operations, ensuring that all our activities are well-coordinated and executed."

Eric's smile was warm and reassuring as he addressed the students. "We are here to make your experience at Nova Academy enriching and memorable. Feel free to approach us with any concerns or ideas you may have."

Seraphina resumed her speech, her eyes scanning the crowd with a mixture of authority and warmth. "This time, one of the seat in student council has been opened and I'm here for choose one of the cadets as part of student council.
