Chapter 520 Guide
The guide entered the cla.s.sroom first while Noel and Rose waited outside.
Noel took a peek inside and found around fifty people in one cla.s.s. The teacher was a man in his early thirties. He had a calm and gentle expression, so it didn't seem there would be any restriction inside.
After a while, the guide came out and informed him. "We can enter for five minutes."
"Is there a way to get a student guide easily?"
"You just have to introduce yourself and explain the thing you're searching for."
"I see. Let's enter then." Noel nodded and entered the room.
In that instant, everyone's gaze was locked on them. Noel shook the teacher's hand first.
"Pardon my intrusion."
"Welcome to my cla.s.s. Please don't hesitate to tell them about your purpose."
"I understand." After receiving the confirmation, Noel immediately turned around as the guide took out the badge, handing it back to him.
The students frowned when they saw the silver badge, showing that Noel wasn't an ordinary person.
"My name is Iadre, a member of Demon Relief Squad's Zero Squad. This is my comrade, Rose.
"We are here to visit the tower to find anything related to the spirits. I often wonder where the spirits come from The demons And why are they even residing in our bodies
"So, if you are interested, please raise your hand." Noel made a brief introduction before stepping back.
"I see. This is quite an interesting topic. We don't get someone like you very often." The teacher smiled. "Even I feel like going."
"Haha, no one is stopping you from helping me." Noel winked his right eye playfully.
"Hahaha. Who can teach these kids if I'm not here," the teacher made a light joke while they were waiting for the students' responses?
Surprisingly, there were three people that raised their hands.
"You can pick one of them, Sir." The guide whispered.
Noel thought there would only be one person that wanted to help him, but it seemed the topic was more popular than he thought.
But there was something even more shocking. Another person raised his hand and couldn't help but ask, "Sorry, Sir. Before volunteering, I'd like to ask you a question."
The teacher furrowed his eyebrows since it would waste their time and be a bit rude to this person.
However, Noel didn't know their custom, so he nodded his head. "Sure."
"What do you think about spirits?"
Noel already had an answer long ago. Even the spirits had told him about it.
Without hesitation, Noel answered, "The spirits are like us, humans. The only difference is that we're controlling our bodies while the spirits are residing in ours."
"!!!" This statement stunned the people. Even the teacher couldn't help but become more interested in Noel as if he wanted to guide Noel personally.
But the student who asked the question earlier had made his move first. "Please take me, Sir. You don't have to give me anything. Just by looking at you, I feel like I can know something more about spirits."
"Hmm" Noel narrowed his eyes, observing this person. He had spiky red hair and slanted eyes. His body was average, but there was something he noticed about this person. He had a Spirit Mark on the side of his neck.
He himself had already received the spirit's recognition, while the other three didn't have one. Only one who had talked with the spirits knew what they meant to them.
So, Noel agreed. "Alright. You will come with me then. As for the schedule" Noel glanced at the guide.
"You are free to set the schedule, Sir. Though, please don't interfere with the current cla.s.s if possible."
"When is this cla.s.s over?" Noel asked.
"In two and a half hours." The teacher answered.
"I see." Noel looked down for a moment. On the one hand, he was curious about the knowledge. On the other hand, reading with a tired body wouldn't be as effective.
So, he decided. "How about tomorrow morning? I've just come to this town, so I'm going to recover from my fatigue first so that it will be more effective."
The guy nodded without hesitation.
"Good. We'll meet in front of this academy then."
"Yes, Sir."
Noel was satisfied with the search and immediately thanked the teacher for giving the permission. He also apologized to the other students for taking their precious time before leaving the cla.s.s.
It was quite surprising to see how well Noel conducted himself inside. It felt as if he was a n.o.ble.
But there was rarely a n.o.ble that wanted to become a part of the Demon Banner Army. Even if there was one, they were the other way around. They came from the Demon Banner Army first before becoming a n.o.ble.
So, it seemed that Noel was one of the rare n.o.bles.
It was a big opportunity for them, albeit it was taken by someone who had acted rudely by asking a question.
After getting the first guide, they immediately moved toward the second academy, the Spirit Magician Academy to find their second guide.
This time, the teacher was a bit strict, so they had to wait for fifteen minutes before the teacher allowed them to come in, albeit reluctantly.
Noel also got another guide here. She was actually a n.o.ble daughter, but because she was adept in magic and she was the second-born, it was clear that her option was either to become a scholar or get married off.
Though, Noel didn't care about it as he only needed her as a guide. After reaching an agreement, Noel left the academy. Of course, he didn't forget to leave a hefty tip for the guide.
It was a bountiful day since he had seen an amusing structure of the academy, from their unique technology to their unique cla.s.s.
He couldn't help but wonder if it was possible to set up a smaller academy in his future territory, one that didn't care whether they were n.o.bles or commoners. He just wanted to increase the people's academic levels.
