The Academy of Scientific Magic

-Updated daily, six chapters a day, right on schedule. Glad you’re here!- On the first day of term, the new students looked utterly despondent. The screen above the Sorting Gate lit up with a little red flower: “Biochemistry!!” “...?” The Sorting Gate twisted like a snake: “Civil Engineering!!” “...??” A young wizard from Nottinghamshire asked in earnest, “Excuse me, what exactly is civil engineering?” A young witch from New York was asked to show her phone. “Scan the code.” The bald dean hung a QR code on the wall. “Come register for your dorms.” Someone couldn’t take it anymore and quietly asked what was going on. Had the wizarding world gone mad today? “Ask him.” The girl beside them pointed into the distance. They turned to look. A beautiful silver-haired man stood above them, his sea-blue eyes shimmering faintly. “Is he one of our upperclassmen?” “An upperclassman?” The other person gave them a look that said, Have you gone mad too? “That’s our newly appointed headmaster.” Aixier Phoenix, a young descendant of the phoenix, had just been appointed headmaster of Aiden University, a third-rate wizarding college. The first thing he did when he arrived was teach everyone how to use a phone, revamp the courses and departments, and have the faculty write a new set of textbooks. He fired quite a few people, brought in the Druid clan leader to revitalize the animal husbandry, forestry, and agriculture programs, invited a mermaid princess to teach elemental energy conversion while sitting in a bathtub, opened an extra dining hall for the Chinese students, and generously supplied his own tail feathers as experimental materials. Then one day, another shadow appeared beside his bed, smiling faintly, its presence dangerous. “You’ve been running wild in my territory for quite a while. Having fun?” “Your students don’t know yet, do they...” He leaned down and twirled a lock of his silver hair, saying lightly, “You can’t use magic at all.” Descendant of the phoenix | Male lead | Headmaster | Looks 22 | Pretty little beauty | New students keep mistaking him for a fellow student Love interest: Seems noble and aloof | Actually has several identities he’s eager to reveal | Founder | Went out to roam as a dragon for so long that he came back to find his home gone *The cover is a template, not a commissioned character design. *Multiple viewpoints, ensemble comedy, not a switch pairing.
