Chapter 215: Advanced Magic Numbers
"bell……"
The bell rang and Kira walked into the classroom holding the prepared teaching materials.
The teaching method of Demisol College is similar to that of a university, but there are a few differences:
Every week, the teachers of the college discuss their respective teaching times and arrange the course timetable. The college has no restrictions on majors, and students can learn whatever they want, which is very free.
Generally speaking, teachers who teach the same course will stagger their teaching times so that students will not miss out on learning multiple courses they want to learn at the same time. If you really don't have time, then I can only apologize and work hard after class.
There are only a few required courses, the two most important of which are "Basics of Magic" and "Magical Thoughts". Most of the rest are electives. This is because each magician has different talents and needs to learn different magic.
This is a large tiered classroom with more than a dozen rows of desks arranged in an arch around the podium and blackboard in the middle, as well as a smooth crystal screen embedded in the wall. There is no need to elaborate on other things like crystal light bulbs and magic air conditioners, as they are all very common things in the academy.
Every row of the classroom was filled with people. A rough calculation showed that there were about 300 people. If we look at the number of students admitted every year, this would be equivalent to more than a dozen classes, which is not a small number. The age range of these students was very large, the youngest was only 6 or 7 years old, and the oldest was older than Kira.
While Kira was looking at the students, the students were also looking at Kira.
During the seven days he spent in Hams City, the news that "the dean invited three temporary foreign teachers, one of whom is a talented young wizard from the magic guild [Fairy Tail]" had spread throughout the academy. These students who had been in the academy for several years or even more than ten years couldn't help but want to meet this genius from the outside world and compete with him.
When they found out that Kira was only 20 years old, the senior students in the academy were even more dissatisfied. They studied in the most famous and oldest magic academy in the Kingdom of Fiore. Could it be that they were worse than those from a magic guild? With this thought in mind, they came to Kira's class.
Red hair, blue eyes, young and handsome, with a black and gold magic robe and a blue and purple short cloak, this is the students' first impression of Kira.
A boy sitting in the back row said sourly: "Apart from looking a little handsome, there's nothing special about him..."
A female student next to her shyly covered her face with her thin long sleeves and retorted with a smile: "I think being handsome is already amazing. Did he use charm magic?"
This is of course a joke. Everyone knows that it is impossible for the other party to use charm magic. It is just to express how handsome this "Teacher Kira" is.
Elsewhere, a boy who looked a little older looked at the people around him and said, "I heard that this wizard named Kira is only 20 years old, younger than me. Is he really that strong?"
The one who answered him was one of the people who was rescued by Kira from Zudel: "Yes! He is super powerful! This time when the academy was attacked by the enemy, he saved me at the last moment! Those monsters couldn't even beat Teacher XX, but they couldn't last more than 3 minutes in his hands!"
After that, he spent more than a minute describing in detail the whole process of Kira's rescue. His description was so exaggerated that the people around him were shocked, hissed continuously, gasped, and the temperature in the classroom rose sharply.
"You all felt the earthquake at the end of that day, right? It was the aftermath of his battle with the enemy leader!" Someone else talked about Kira's glorious deeds. The narrator was very excited and looked proud. Those who didn't know would think that he had fought that battle.
A young girl said, "I know this! I met the dean the day before yesterday, and she told me in person that it was because Kira-sensei and the enemy fought near the office building and created a big hole that they built a new viewing lake!"
After these words came out, the faces of the people who were talking turned pale with fear. Some of them covered the girl's mouth, or moved directly in the opposite direction of her, and shouted softly: "Shh! Keep your voice down! Are you going to die?! Who are you calling an old man?"
The little girl also realized that something was wrong, and quickly looked around. When she found that no one heard it, she patted her ordinary chest with lingering fear, and stuck out her tongue to act cute.
Similar scenes occurred in many places in the classroom. Kira could see and hear clearly at the podium, but he did not shout to stop. He really just wanted to know more about what the students thought of him.
"Attend class!"
“Hello, teacher!”
"Teacher Kira... that sounds great!" Kira stood on the podium, his face as usual, feeling happy: "I never thought that I would have this day. Why didn't I have this feeling when I taught the children in the orphanage before?"
“Ahem…” Noticing the gazes coming his way, Kira cleared his throat, then showed a natural and handsome smile to the students below, and said, “I’m Kira Hopelet, from the magic guild [Fairy Tail], and I’m honored to be invited to give a lecture…”
A few days ago, he had already agreed with Conas to have a two-hour class every week. As long as the course contained some useful information, he could teach whatever he wanted!
Kira first spent 5 minutes giving a brief self-introduction, and then spent half a class time talking in detail about his "great achievements", including but not limited to "defeating the ice demon", "outsmarting the black dragon", "defeating the Saint Ten Gerald", "winning the first place in the guild", "becoming famous by forging tools", "famous works spread far and wide"... and of course, the last part included "stopping the attack of the dark guild" which just happened in the academy.
Every time he said something, he would produce physical evidence: several magic crystals that recorded his heroic battles, and a magical newspaper titled "The Most Successful Novelist in the Kingdom of Fiore in the Past Decade."
"Amazing! I didn't expect Kira-sensei to be so amazing!"
"Successful people! These are truly successful people! We used to be sitting in a well and looking at the world from afar!"
Kira was intoxicated by the students' admiration and said, "Calm down, these are just basic operations. As the youngest and most promising wizard in the Kingdom of Fiore, these are just my duties and obligations. You should also follow my example in the future and strive to become someone who contributes to the magic world!"
"Most importantly, I hope you are not praising me because of my appearance and strength. I am just an ordinary magician. What is truly worthy of admiration is my unyielding spirit in the face of adversity, and my great ambition to benefit society and the country!"
The students immediately stood in awe, and hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at Kira with sparkling eyes. They went from being blind fans at the beginning to being crazy fans!
"Everyone should remember the teacher's words and use their own hands to build the Kingdom of Fiore, making it prosperous, democratic, civilized and harmonious. At the same time, we should safeguard the freedom, equality, justice and rule of law in the magic world and be a patriotic, dedicated, honest and friendly wizard!!"
Just as he was feeling proud, Kira saw Conas coming to inspect him, and his tone immediately changed: "Let's start today's teaching content, "Advanced Magic Numbers ."
The topic changed so quickly that the students in the audience were stunned.
Through the crystal projection screen on the wall, Kira showed the teaching cases he had prepared.
"Everyone, look at this question: An unknown number of Shadow Rabbits and Red Flame Chickens are locked together. There are 120 heads and 366 legs in total. How many Shadow Rabbits and Red Flame Chickens are there?"
