In the Sky Feather Mage Tower, in Professor Rudolph's office, Jessica was standing in the corner of the wall covered in dust, and the little boy who had turned into a pig's head in the other corner was also standing in the penalty station.

"I see."

Joshua glanced at the two children and understood what was happening in front of them.

In short, it's the kind of plot that is so traditional that it can't be more traditional, the protagonist from a humble background enters the magic academy, and is ridiculed by a clown who looks down on people on the spot.

But who would have thought that in the culture class, the protagonist would become the only one in the class to solve the problem, and the clown immediately jumped to his feet.

In order to hide the fact that he is a clown, he casually challenges the protagonist, and then is violently beaten into a pig's head.

, what kind of classic plot, I didn't use the routine ten years ago, okay?

I've tasted enough, hurry up and serve it.

Obviously, in the story just now, Jessica is naturally the protagonist, and the boy who was beaten into a pig's head by the side becomes a clown.

Wait, am I not the main character? Why didn't such a classic plot happen to me?

Joshua complained silently, but the things that should be dealt with should continue.

"Mr. Joshua, don't you feel that you have failed in your education with Jessica?"

"This ...... It's me who is too focused on other things. ”

Joshua really had no way to refute such a question.

There are dozens of children in the orphanage, if not dozens, but also dozens, and to take care of so many people, and at the same time to maintain the development of the newspaper, Joshua is indeed negligent in education.

Education here is not about reading and writing, but about how to behave in the world.

Joshua didn't think Jessica's counterattack was wrong, but Jessica's attack was too light and heavy, and he didn't kill him if he wasn't a mortal enemy.

If a person is accustomed to doing things desperately, then his path will often lead to a dead end.

"It's good that you know, what you want to teach children is a step-by-step process, and you don't even teach some basic ciphertexts, just teach children the initial Ohm ciphertext, which is too nonsense."

Rudolph was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, Jessica was so talented that she was educated in such a way, no wonder she hadn't become a professional magician at this age.

The parents in this area are really the worst class of parents I have ever led.

"Yes...... What? ”

Joshua subconsciously wanted to admit his mistake, but he heard a different voice, and he looked at Anna on the side with a blank expression.

Wasn't it because Jessica hit someone this time that she was called?

Anna came to the newspaper with a resentful look, obviously Joshua was in a hurry to come over and only listened to half of the words, and she could not be blamed.

"Isn't it?"

Professor Rudolph immediately took the case, and although he had a grudge against Jessica's irresponsible parents, he did not substitute this part of his feelings for the education of his students.

Jessica's talent in particular is truly amazing.

"In this world, in addition to the special ciphertexts of each mage tower, the more common ciphertexts are the Ohm ciphertext, the Wright ciphertext, and the Omega ciphertext, which should be the first to be taught, and it is really ...... that you taught the original Ohm ciphertext as soon as you came up."

Rudolph wanted to blow Joshua's head with his staff, he had never seen a waste of talent, but he had never seen such a waste of talent.

If he hadn't asked a conundrum about the initial Ohm ciphertext, he would have thought Jessica hadn't learned any magic in all these years.

"While the initial Ohm ciphertext is of a crucial use in the study of ancient materials, it is a waste of time in the study of basic magic."

Rudolph remembered Jessica's experiences at the Mage's Tower these days.

The orphan's origins are bound to be pointed at by his peers, and at the same time, he focuses on the initial ohm runes, so that many basic attempts at magic are not known and laughed at.

To be honest, Rudolph was not surprised that something like this happened now.

"Is there so much going on? I didn't even find ......."

Joshua blames himself, he goes back and forth between the court and the newspaper these days, and there is no doubt that he has no more energy to look after Jessica.

As for Anna not telling him about these things, I guess I don't want him to be distracted.

At that time, a sense of crisis that only middle-aged and elderly men can have hit his heart, and the problem of how to balance work and family was put on the table.

The question is...... Joshua doesn't even have a wife now, so why should he experience this feeling in advance?

"Sorry, I'm late."

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and an old woman in her fifties walked in, thinking that she was the parent of another child.

After learning what had happened, the old woman apologized again and again, and after Rudolph's introduction, the other party was the owner of the largest bakery in Philanthropus, whose children had disappeared ten years ago, and now left her grandson Reiner to rely on her.

In this way, the old woman's doting on her can be understood.

The old woman took her mistake and apologized very calmly, so that the situation did not escalate, and it was not necessarily a good thing that it ended like this.

"I don't apologize, I don't apologize."

Reiner was already angry when he was beaten into a pig's head, and now he has to apologize, so he still wants to mess around in the mage tower.

"Reiner ......"

"Don't put on that look, didn't you say you knew that demigod Leon? Mom and Dad have been missing for so many years, have you ever asked him? Now they are pretending to care for me again. ”

The young child was always able to say hurtful things without caring about the consequences, and he ran away without seeing his grandmother's sad gaze.

"I'm sorry to let you see the ugliness of the house."

After saying this, the old woman also left the place, just looking at her crumbling back, obviously hurt by what she had just said.

"That old man has something to do with the demigod Leon?"

When the old man was gone, Joshua looked at Professor Rudolph, who was in a sense related to the demigod.

not only inherited the star climbing and moon picking, but also obtained the famous steel sword.

If it hadn't been for this writing, Joshua might have been buried in Black Mountain.

"Don't you know? Fei Leng Emerald is the old home of that Lyon. ”

Although Rudolph didn't like Joshua, he still had a little spirit when it came to Leon, after all, Leon was a figure that could never be bypassed for this Friedrich Emerald.

Is Lyon's hometown of Friedmont?

Joshua thought for a moment and then was relieved, although the town of Black Mountain was not far from Fei Lengcui, but in this era when demonic beasts were active in the mountains, it was not safe for ordinary people to travel, and many people never left the place where they were born in their lives.

Naturally, I didn't know that there was a demigod in Fei Lengcui.

"Evelyn is Leon's childhood sweetheart, and Lyon, who was poor and destitute in his early years, lived on Evelyn's bread, and the old people in the city have heard about it."

It's no surprise that everyone has their downfalls.

However, the surprising thing is that the two people who have such an intimate relationship do not come together, Leon yearns for the outside world, and Evelyn is in a corner of the Eaveric.

The separation of the two did not make any trouble, and when Leon came to his senses, Leon left, and Evelyn's bakery grew bigger and bigger as Leon's fame grew, becoming what it is today.

"But...... Ms. Evelyn never married, but she didn't know when she became pregnant, and there were many rumors at the time, but she persevered and was a strong woman. ”

Having children out of wedlock?

Joshua sighed, knowing that if this happened in another world, he would be pointed at.

One can imagine what kind of pressure the old woman was under in this era.

"Then she really ......"

"Well, that's not Leon's child, in the War of the Roses that the orc court invaded thirty years ago, Fei Leng Cui naturally fell, Leon was here at that time, and both of them said at that time that it was not his child."

Thirty years ago, Leon was at least a legendary powerhouse, and in such a situation, if Evelyn's child was really Leon's, then there would be no problem in admitting it.

Not to mention, I haven't heard of the strongest demigod interested in any person of the opposite sex.

Rudolph didn't mention Evelyn's past because he liked to chew on the root of his tongue, but because he felt that his parents were really different.

If it weren't for Evelyn's age and lack of energy to discipline her grandson, she would definitely be a more responsible parent than Joshua.

"Lyon's old friend?"

Joshua glanced at the steel sword at his waist, and if the other party encountered any difficulties, then Joshua would do his best to help.

It's a favor to Lyon.

"Then we're leaving."

Saying goodbye to Rudolph's stinky face, Joshua and Anna take Jessica's hand and return to the church of Santa Rowling.

Both of them were thinking about how to properly educate Jessica next, but they didn't notice that Jessica hadn't said a word until now.

"Priest, am I causing you trouble?"

Jessica looked at Joshua with a little unease, she understood that Joshua had been busy recently, and Joshua had been working hard to get the people of Montenegro to settle in the city as soon as possible.

That's why Jessica doesn't want to cause trouble, and she won't say anything about the ostracism she received at the Mage's Tower.

I just didn't expect it to be ......

"Trouble? Something about beating people? ”

"Hmm."

"Although the casual use of violence is not a good thing, it is only problematic that you do not resist when you encounter such a thing."

Joshua didn't want Jessica to be a man who believed in "power" as truth, but he didn't want Jessica to be a submissive underdog either.

Human emotions are so complicated.

"Violence is a powerful part but not the whole thing, and if violence dominates the brain, then you are really disappointed. ”】

Not again.

Jessica understood that it was Father Joshua's voice, but Joshua in front of her didn't say that.

She'd never heard it before, and she'd asked Joshua these days, and the answer was no.

She could hear what Joshua hadn't said, and it happened after that night.

Jessica thinks back to the night when you were shrouded in a pillar of blood-colored light, after that power entered your body, after praying to the priest reverently, after devouring the priest's flesh.

Suddenly, Jessica could hear it.

"There are many ways to deal with the problem, and if you can, I hope you will put violence as the last option."

Joshua certainly understood the pleasure of drawing a knife at the slightest disagreement, but he also understood the trouble of cleaning up the mess after that.

Regardless of a person's strength or weakness, violence should not be the first option.

["How many ways to deal with that kind of imp, cleaning up the other party and making the other party unable to grasp the handle is what you have to learn, Jessica, you have to control the power, not let the power control you. ”】

Control the power instead of being controlled by it.

Jessica pondered this sentence, she was indeed a little impulsive about today's events.

Although she is not as good as Reiner in magic theory, it is not too difficult to use magic to do something in the shadows.

There is a chance for those who laugh at her to suffer dumb losses, but she chooses the most direct violence because of a moment of anger.

If you take care of it, you don't have to waste the priest's time.

Jessica secretly blamed herself in her heart, and at the same time made up her mind that she must have clean hands and feet when she does such a thing next, and she can't continue to be carried away by anger.

[Jessica has a deep understanding of Joshua's meaning, violence and conspiracy complement each other, and the next time Jessica encounters something like this, she will definitely not leave any horses. 】

That's not what I mean, and don't think too darkly of children.

Joshua endured and endured, completely dismissing the words of the fateful text as a fart.

Whether a person is kind or not is related to the environment in which he grew up, Joshua and Anna are both upright people who are not afraid of shadows, how can they educate a child who is scheming everywhere?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

[When you go out, beware of falling objects. 】

Suddenly, a gust of wind came from above Joshua, and Anna sensed the danger and pulled him aside, and then a "snap" was heard, and a mass of rotten flesh that could no longer be distinguished appeared where Joshua had stood.

There was no sound anymore.

The street fell silent, but it was short-lived, and soon fear and panic filled the hearts of passers-by.

They were panicked and wanted to get out of here, and the attack of the cultists some time ago had already made people frightened.

Massive panic began to spread.

"Anna protects Jessica."

"Okay, what about you?"

"Protect the scene, and shake people by the way."

Joshua recalls how to use the Breeze Barrier in the Bonata Mysteries, and then arranges the barrier to protect the scene, and pulls out a Judgment Token.

Input the magic into it at a specific rhythm, and soon the people of the Inquisition will come.

But is this coming for him?

Joshua looked at the rotten flesh on the ground, and if it was an attack, it was not at all successful.

But if it weren't for the attack...... Coincidental?

[Where is there an accident in this world, everything is inevitable, even if you are in the unpredictable fate stage, but the foreshadowing has already been buried, enjoy it quietly before detonating. 】
