Chapter Seven: The Second Aubreon
The girl named Fanny is a fair-skinned girl about the same age as, with curly silver hair and yellowish eyes that are close to amber. In addition to that www.biquge.info he was of average appearance and of ordinary stature - not at all on the same level as the previous Miss Jane.
And her surname, Morana, was not among the illustrious, noble surnames that Abner knew, so he was almost certain that this was not a superior who he needed to deal with carefully to avoid anger—like His Highness Claris.
He was not a man who liked to 'fight for his father', but in this hateful, hierarchical, and blood-based feudal medieval society, it was impossible not to fight for his father--in the dealings of the upper class, the nobles were often keen to show off the names, official positions, and titles of their famous elders when they first met, the more the better. People with many prominent relatives and friends are often also darlings of social situations. After all, pleasing them usually means getting in touch with the dignitaries behind them—even if it's just one-sided, and not at all strong.
In his own case, since his father became one of only four municipal governors in the royal capital, and was promoted to viscount, all kinds of relatives, who had not had many contacts, and others whom he had never met, all appeared, and all kinds of invitations and visitors were almost overwhelming to Abner, who just wanted to study quietly and enrich himself, his father needed to go to work at the town hall, and his mother and he were the objects of 'harassment' from these people. And the reason why he came to the academy so actively is also inseparable from the 'strong promotion' of those people.
...... Far from it.
After he had introduced himself, everyone in the teacher's office applauded, everyone with a smile welcoming the new classmates, and two of them with a hint of curiosity on their faces, reminding him of the first class in his new school in his previous life - but not much different.
"Abner sit here first, and the teacher will come later. After the applause, Heyman pointed to a chair and said to him, "If you want to get to know everyone, you can go back to the dormitory after class and in the evening." By the way, when the teacher comes in, remember to stand up with us. ”
"Hmm. Nodding, Abner agreed—though he wondered why he had to go the extra mile to remind himself of something akin to common sense at the end: wasn't it the most basic etiquette to stand when the teacher came?
When he looked up again, paper, ink, and quill had been pushed in front of him on the table in front of the chair—Fanny, who was alone from him, smiling kindly at him.
This is...... Are your classmates all good people?
Probably because of Miss Jane, thinking so, Abner also responded with a grateful smile.
It didn't take long for everyone to straighten up and wait for the teacher to appear, with a burst of footsteps that were not hurried or slow, and were evenly spaced.
The hidden door was opened, and a middle-aged man in a black coat, Benjamin Gilbert, walked in.
Everyone stood up neatly and greeted their teacher.
"Sit down. ”
The unsmiling and expressionless teacher glanced around, saw that his students were there, and nodded, "Sit down." ”
Everyone sat down as they were told.
"Abner Felix. ”
"Yes, teacher. Abner, who had been in a focused spirit, heard his name, reflexively stood up and walked up to the seemingly strict teacher.
"Don't be nervous. Although he said comforting words, the teacher's tone remained unwavering: "How many lingua franca words do you know and can write proficiently?"
"About four thousand, teacher. Abner said a third-inflection figure.
In order to be able to understand the information of this world, from the age of six, Abner began to pester his parents to teach him words, and when he became familiar with the most basic pronunciation rules, he began to use the "Dictionary of the Common Language of the Continent" for self-study, and from time to time asked his father to buy various books for him to read and practice...... But even so, after eight years of study, his current level of language and writing is only about the same as that of fifteen or sixteen years old in the previous life. However, compared to his peers in this world, his level can be considered quite good.
“......”
Hearing his answer, not only did Heyman and the others look shocked, but even their teacher Benjamin, whose brown eyes had not fluctuated, also flashed a faint surprise: A fourteen-year-old boy can skillfully write about 4,000 words silently, even if it cannot be described as a genius, it is enough to be called excellent -- this is already two-thirds of the content in the dictionary of the continental lingua franca! The ordinary children of the great nobles are no more than that.
However, when he went to the school at noon today to report that the other party was already in his name, the information he obtained seemed to be that the other party's father was just a viscount......
However, considering that it was the daughter of the Duke of Valorenburg who brought him over, it seemed understandable that he could reach this level.
"How many books have you read?" Mr. Benjamin continued.
"Thirty-four copies. "This time it's a number without a discount.
The teacher's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he didn't reproach him, just said succinctly: "Say the name." ”
"Dictionary of the Continental Language", "History of the Kingdom", "The Legend of the Ten Heroes", "The Biography of Naserinde", "The Legend of the Sage", ......"
"Hmm. Hearing him finish the name of the book, Benjamin nodded, "I have a general idea of your study progress, you can go directly to the second-grade course - after school today, go to the library to borrow the two books "The Complete Collection of Allusions and Proverbs of the Mainland" and "Tuart the Great". For the next week, you'll be tasked with copying the first part of the first book and reading the second book, which has at least one note...... Five thousand words. ”
"......" Abner froze, Abner was stunned, Abner was speechless.
Is this the legendary cramming teaching?
"Do you need me to say that again?" the teacher frowned.
"Uh...... No, teacher. Abner replied hurriedly.
"Well, sit down. The teacher nodded and called out to another person: "Abella." ”
"Teacher. The yellow-haired man he called stood up and responded respectfully.
"I have the book "The Complete Collection of Allusions and Proverbs of the Mainland" here, Abner, you don't have to go to the library to borrow it. ”
After sitting down, Heyman next to him whispered to him.
"Oh, thanks. Abner also whispered, "Don't you use Heyman?"
"I've read it, Abner, you can take it as you like—give. ”
As he spoke, pulled out a book with a hide cover, half the thickness of his index finger, from a pile of white paper.
The corners of Abner's mouth twitched.
The first part of the book was copied in a week...... This teacher really thinks of himself......
". ”
"Teacher. ”
was called away by the teacher, and Abner, who had no one to talk to, had to take the heavy book and turn it up.
I don't know how many of its first parts are...... With this in mind, he opens the first page of the book—a page where the author's name and their message are usually present.
To the lovely Jane, Irene, and Lania, I hope this book will be helpful to you.
