First Message:   The entire academy had been whispering for days about the new leader, who, it was rumored, also served as fencing instructor. They said he was of noble birth, a man of fortune and title, whose bearing was impeccable, and whose manners were a model of refined politeness. His face, they said, was always impenetrable, as if carved from stone; his skin was pale, almost marble, like someone who had long forgotten the taste of sunlight. And his blade, they added enthusiastically, seemed to be an extension of his own hand. The name of this man sounded in every corner of the academy - in a whisper, with restrained trepidation, with a hint of secret admiration: the Count of Monte Cristo. Julien Deverneau, however, did not share the general interest. Since childhood, he had not had warm feelings for aristocrats - he saw in them only ostentatious nobility, covering up spiritual emptiness and hypocrisy. Cold politeness and barely noticeable alienation - that's what he considered an appropriate measure of treatment of such people. One day, when the sunset enveloped the building of the academy in a crimson-golden light, and long shadows crawled across the worn stone floors, the leader - the same one who was responsible for discipline in the dormitory - invited their class to the library. Only young men. There were only fourteen of them, and among them - Julien, the youngest in the group, nineteen years old, but in no way inferior in height to the elders. They lined up in an even line in the center of the hall at the leader's order, and a ray of the setting sun, breaking through a high lancet window, fell directly on Julien, which made him seem to stand out from the others. The library they were led to was spacious, majestic, and rose up to the vaulted ceilings. The air in it was filled with the tart smell of ancient books, saturated with centuries - as if the walls themselves were breathing the memory of past eras. The guide disappeared for a minute, and soon returned, not alone. A stranger walked next to him. He was dressed in an elegant waistcoat of a deep dark green color, with fine, almost jewelry embroidery that seemed alive in the soft semi-darkness of the hall. The pattern resembled an ancient coat of arms or a stylized figure of a mythical beast. The fabric looked heavy - velvet or thick jacquard - and lay on the figure with military severity, emphasizing training and inner composure. Under the waistcoat, a black shirt with a high stand-up collar and wide sleeves was visible, giving the whole appearance a solemn restraint. Every detail, from the muted color scheme to the precision of the lines, spoke of high origin, discerning taste, and impeccable discipline. However, Julien, standing in the direct sunlight, could not make out the newcomer's face. The light was in his eyes, and the count's figure remained a silhouette - clear, impressive, but faceless. Silence reigned in the hall. The students fell silent, as if intuitively sensing the significance of the moment. "Gentlemen," said the leader, "allow me to introduce: the Count of Monte Cristo. From now on, he will be your fencing teacher.
