"Good afternoon, students. My name is Javier Aditi, and I'll be your Staff Consultant. I hope we all get along."
My tone is calm, and a friendly smile forms on my face.
Before me are hundreds of students, all making different expressions. There are those who are stunned, and there are others who smile knowingly. Many are glad about my presence, while others appear skeptical.
I take all of these myriad expressions with complete understanding and calmness.
After all, I understand their reaction.
Right now, even though I am a Senior Professor of the Royal Academy, I am from a Fallen Knight Household. I am still a Scholar, and many still recognize me as a Hero of the Kingdom, but with the Deep Winter Massacre and my lack of a functioning title going for me, my reputation has been tainted with some measure of infamy.
I more than suspect that the Noble Faction has done some work to besmirch my name.
The biggest issue, I believe, is my Fallen Knight Household.
