Chapter 272 - Devil army (1/2)
Since it has been a while since I talk with Kara, the two of us talk about various things, especially about her daily routine as a teacher at the first ever school for commoner. As expected, even though she has gain confidence over the past few years, she still feels a little bit of anxious as she's only a few year older than her students. If you ask me, she's 18 years old now, and most of her students are around 10, some younger and some older. If anything, I should be the one who feels insecure, having to teach them magic
”Still, you're a court magician, so they should cone to respect you” [Kara]
”And you're the beloved teacher at this academy. What award was it again? Oh right, the best teacher award! Surely teaching is your calling” [Charlotte]
”True. I feel fulfill with my jobs” [Kara]
And before we know it, there is 5 minutes left before we each start our class, and as such, we quickly take the teaching materials and went in our separate way. As for me, I should go to the beginner class
Taking the 900am beginner magic class, some of the students are as old as I am, but the looks on their eye tells me everything. They're eager to learn and cast aside all their pride and worries just to improve their life. It is a big sacrifice, as the time they spend here can also be use for them to work, just so that they could put a bread on their plate, but persuasion from Principal Alice and Kara, as well as policy made by Sis Diana, they're more than willing to attend the school
As I take the chalk and start explaining the basic of magic, I can see that there are student jotting it down rather quickly, while some just try their best to concentrate as not to miss a single thing, and as usual, come my favourite part
”No. Chanting a spell aren't necessary. You don't said out loud every time you walk or breath right?” [Charlotte]
As expected, their jaw dropped to the floor. This is our first reaction when Brother Ash taught us six years back, and it has become my favourite catchphrase when teaching someone magic.
”Is that how you become the youngest court magician?”
”Partially yes, but also through rigorous training. Lots and lots of training are required” [Charlotte]
”But you have the blessing of ten heroes and the Blessing of Holy Beast of Water, Ice Dragon Reshir as well. Talk about luck”
”True, I won't deny it. But that also means that I should sacrifice my life should the fallen god awaken, did you want to get the same fate?” [Charlotte]
”...”
”Now, let us move to next topic, since we are already talking about the fallen god” [Charlotte]
That actually makes me sad a bit, but then again, Grandpa Filvisar survives the ordeal one hundred years ago, and as such, I believe the ten of us along with Lara and Nara will also survive, hopefully defeating the fallen god once and for all and bring peace to Achalasia
