Chapter 4 - Schools
As time passed slowly, it was soon the scorching summer of August. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In many cities of Hyperion, rumors gradually spread that Alpha was slaughtering the elves who had escaped from Hyperion and Selene, and although many elves did not believe this rumor, almost ninety percent of the elves were unwilling to use their lives to prove the truth of the rumor. The remaining ten percent, regardless of whether the rumor was true or not, had to go back to Alpha, but at the border checkpoint, the advice of the soldiers of Hyperion and Selene still made many of the elves choose to give up.
After the elves who insisted on going to Alpha escaped under the butcher's knife of Alpha's elves and were assigned to work in the workshops of various cities, almost no elves were willing to go to Alpha. In Hyperion, they had to live on an equal footing with the other races, but they received two or three times as much benefits as on Alpha's side, not to mention the fact that Hyperion had been committed to economic development, education, and communication with the other principalities of Miracesa, which could give them great strength.
Moreover, compared to Selene, who did not have much respect for the religion of the elves, Hyperion adopted a policy of personal freedom of belief in religious matters. As long as you believe in a cult that is not officially forbidden, then you can believe in whatever you want, which has won the support of the elves. Over time, all kinds of problems arose on the side of the Duchy of Selene, so that Tadarimus had to go to Hyperion to learn from the scriptures and learn how Raman Rath and Lu Ming made the elves choose to support them and belittle themselves.
However, the empress and the regent's henchman, who had just arrived in Hyperion, was told that Lu Ming was not in Hyperion at this time, and after working out the next development plan for Hyperion with the Grand Duke of Raman Lath, the two rushed back to the Prometheus School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Erepos, and took advantage of the summer vacation to write the textbooks for the second and third grades with the professors.
In this regard, the Grand Duke of Tadarims had no other way than to look blankly at Count Miral Thatch, who was staying on the side of the Duchy of Humperion to establish a branch of the Prometheus School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Maybe it was a pity to see that he, as an archduke, had to learn from the archdukes and nobles of other principalities, so he told Tadarimus about some of the policies that Lu Ming had implemented in the Helios territory before, so that he could avoid some detours.
However, Miral did not tell Tadarims the full extent of the policy. As Count of Humperion, Miral Thatch knew that only true allies could be trusted, and that Tadarims, a member of the royal family, could not be trusted. So just tell him something and tell him not to make trouble in his own principality. It doesn't need to be nice to him......
-----------------------------------
Sitting in the study of the Lord's Mansion in Odyssey City, Lu Ming and his professors are working on the textbooks for the second and third years for the students to use in the second semester.
Relying on the magic notes that Lu Ming sent people to buy from various principalities, their work was completed smoothly, at least most of them smoothly, only the textbook for the puppet soldier course that Miral had strongly requested had not yet been written, because Miral and Henes had not returned at all.
This made Lu Ming and the others feel a lot of pressure, because this was not their course, although they could help write a little, but in the narrative of some of the experiences, Lu Ming and the others had no choice. Lu Ming didn't know how to make puppet soldiers at all, and the other professors only had half a bottle of vinegar, so they didn't know much about puppet soldiers at all.
In the end, Lu Ming, who had been forced to go crazy by the puppet soldiers' textbook compilation work that was bigger than the county's management, suddenly screamed in the frightened eyes of the professors, ran out of the study, came to another study, and said to the two daughters who were working until they collapsed: "You two go and get Miral and Henes back for me!" I'll take care of the paperwork for you! ”
As soon as they heard this, Kanina and Emelia immediately stood up, saluted Lu Mingyi, and said loudly: "Yes~!! ”
Immediately after, the two of them ran out like a gust of wind and threw the mountain of documents to Lu Ming.
In order to escape the documents for a while, Canina and Amelia spent days playing in Hyperion and Tartarus before they went to capture Miral and Henes to write a textbook for the puppet soldier course.
Just when the professors were cheering and praising Canina and Emelia for their efficiency in arresting people, the two of them learned something that frightened them very much, that is, the pile of documents that they would never complete in their lifetime in their eyes, Lu Ming only took two hours to complete!
This made the two of them a little desperate, and deeply sighed that they were really not this material.
As a result, at this time, Lu Ming looked at the two of them with some curiosity, and asked, "Why don't you two classify those documents first, and kick back the documents that most of the low-level nobles can complete and the reasons are not sufficient?" ”
"Huh?"
"You two don't know that you don't actually have to review all the papers, do you? If you have to review all the documents yourself, what else do you want those nobles to do? Do it all by yourselves! ”
"Huh~~!?"
Looking at his two stupid and helpless daughters, Lu Ming sat on the sofa, sighed heavily, and said to a female knight on the side: "I'm really mad by these two stupid girls." Tumina, it will be hard for you in the future, try not to let Odysseus be defeated by these two stupid girls. ”
"Rest assured, Lord Earl. As the chief of the guard of Viscount Canina and Baron Amilia, I will definitely assist them well! ”
Yes, after Lu Ming was promoted to the rank of count, Odysseus was rewarded to Kanina by the Grand Duke of Raels, and not to other nobles. This also means that the Lu family will still serve Errepos in the future, and Errepos will still value Lu Ming.
In particular, the documents of Hyperion, Errepos, and Tartarus are now reviewed in the same way as Lu Ming, rather than most of them have to be reviewed by the Grand Duke and Lord like other principalities. It is Lu Ming's idea that you can't even decide such a small matter, so why am I raising you, that makes the administrative units of these three principalities the easiest principalities in the entire Mirakesa Kingdom.
In other words, the Archduke Raels and the Archduke Ferram learned from him, so they became free to travel and play everywhere.
Want to hang out like the Grand Dukes of other principalities? Don't even think about it!
After several days of sleepless work, Miral and Henes, under the tyranny of Lu Ming and the other professors, finally compiled the textbook of the puppet soldier course before the start of the school year and sent it to the printing house in the city, so that their printing was the only textbook for the puppet soldier course that had not yet been printed.
And the two of them were finally liberated.
But......
"Where do you two want to go?" Just as Miral and Henes were about to withdraw, Lu Ming suddenly appeared, clapped his hand on the shoulders of both of them, and asked coldly.
"......Forehead" turned his head stiffly, looking at Lu Ming's cold eyes and a very dangerous smile, Miral and Henes couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and they couldn't say a word in fear.
"Are you two going to miss the opening ceremony?" Looking coldly at Miral and Henes, the two guys who wanted to run, Lu Ming smiled angrily and asked them.
Knowing that it was unlikely that the two of them would escape from Lu Ming's hands, Miral and Henes had to give up the work they wanted to complete, and instead smiled at Lu Ming with some embarrassment and said, "Why are the two of us absent from the opening ceremony!" We just want to take a break...... at the same time, the two of them also took Lu Ming's hand and walked to the professors step by step, showing that they really can't run.
In this way, they escaped, otherwise let Lu Ming and the other professors know that the two of them plan to release their pigeons, so what's the matter? If the two of them don't get eaten alive, they'll see the hell!
Therefore, after knowing that there was no hope of escaping, the two of them could only come to the magic school on the Prometheus Plains with Lu Ming and the professors a few days later, preparing for the opening ceremony and welcoming the new students in advance.
Sitting on the small bed in the principal's office, Milar looked very bored at Lu Ming and Raman Lass hurriedly writing something at the desk, and then watched the two young professors who were in charge of welcoming the new students this year hurriedly ran in and asked what they should say when welcoming the new students.
"Lu Ming, husband, dear~" Because of boredom, Miral suddenly shouted deliberately. I hope to attract Lu Ming's attention and let him come over to talk to him.
As a result, Lu Ming's attention was indeed attracted by her, and he did stop what he was doing and walked over from the desk. However, she didn't expect him to carry himself to the desk and continue to write while holding her.
"I'm not a pillow!!" Miral loudly protested against Lu Ming's atrocities, but unfortunately no one paid attention to her......
As the time approached dusk, the second-year students arrived at the school early, and under the guidance of the two branch heads, Raphael and Sandra, they returned to the familiar campus, and sat down in the hall where the dinner was held.
Soon, they saw the professors coming into the hall one by one, some of them coming to talk and chat with their students, and some of them sat down in their seats, lying on their tables, and dozing off with tired faces.
Immediately afterwards, the headmaster, Lu Ming, and the professor, who had risen to a very high status, came to the hall and sat in their own seats. And Vice Chancellor Miral Thatch, who has become an earl, was outside the hall, along with the other branch deans, preparing to bring the new students into the hall from the two young professors who had greeted them.
Amid the chatter of the second-graders, more than half an hour passed quickly.
At this time, the door of the hall was opened, and the first-year freshmen, led by Milar and the other five branch directors, poured into the hall.
Among these new births are humans, beast-eared tribes, fishmen, vampires, elves, bugmen, cavemen, tree elves, undead, both agricultural people living in cities and countryside, and nomadic people chasing pastures with cattle and sheep.
As the second-year students and the old auditors looked at the first-year and new auditors, the professors moved twenty chairs with twenty magic hats on them.
Seeing this, those who have already experienced all this know that this is going to be divided.
But the freshmen who hadn't experienced all this couldn't help but look a little restrained when they saw this, until the magic hats started singing, startling them, and being called by the professors one by one to put on the magic hats and start the sorting house, these freshmen gradually began to relax.
Because of the arrival of new students, ten more long tables were added to the hall, enough for everyone to sit down.
However, many attentive students found that even if there were ten more long tables in the hall, nearly half of the area had not yet been utilized. Perhaps even if all the students from grades 1 to 6 were sitting in the hall, they would not be able to make full use of this huge hall.
Sitting in his high headmaster seat, Lu Ming stood up and used magic to transmit his words to everyone's ears.
"I'm Lu Ming, the principal of Prometheus School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and I'd like to welcome you all here. I hope you all learn magic and knowledge that you are proud of! In addition, there are both new students and seniors who have been studying at the school for a year, and as the principal of this school, I hope that you can help each other to complete your studies together and have fun with the magic you have learned. ”
Then he said, "For the rest, I won't say anything more." When I was a child, the most annoying thing was that the principal was on the podium and the barabalas were endless, so please eat. ”
The fork tapped lightly on the empty plate in front of him, and suddenly all kinds of food and magic energy crystals suddenly appeared on the plates in front of all the professors, students, and auditors.
As Lu Ming, the principal, moved the first knife and fork and put a piece of sliced sausage in his mouth, everyone began to eat.
"Alas~ Why is it the same as last year?" Because many of the first-year freshmen and newcomers were civilians, and many of them had never seen so much food, this dinner was the same as last year's, and the students began to rush wildly. This makes many professors a little depressed, after all, the pudding in the school is notoriously delicious.....
"Just like last time, this time the pudding is the last to be served." Unlike the professors, Lu Ming did not have much dissatisfaction with the children and adults who were rushing to grab food there, on the contrary, he was happy to see this scene, because after all this, these students and auditors were able to put down their identities and integrate into the warm and cooperative learning atmosphere of the school on an equal footing.
If it can make those children learn magic together, what is the point of eating pudding later?
So this time at the opening dinner, the pudding once again became the finale delicacy......
