Chapter 96: Chaos School

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Chaos School was an educational institution under the Gray Temple. It consisted of two sections—primary section and secondary section. Children went to either of the two sections based on their age and skills.

Students between 5 to 12 years old were educated at the primary section. They would study rudimentary knowledge, common language, arithmetic, etc.

Meanwhile, their special talents and skills would also be developed there, like magic skills, observing skills, calculating skills… Prior to entering the secondary section, they would be tested first, and those who passed the test would gain the right to receive further education at the secondary section.

If they couldn’t pass the test before they turned 12, they would be forced to leave the Chaos School. In fact, five out of six students would be expelled.

After they graduated from the secondary section, most of them would join the Gray Temple. Their skills and loyalty would become the fresh blood in maintaining the governance of the Gray Temple.

Mag wasn’t averse to this educational system, because every graduate had the right to choose whether to join the Gray Temple or not.

Of course, they had to pass another test first. It reminded him of the civil service system in his previous life.

The best thing about the Chaos School was probably that it was the first to bring knowledge to the city.

The interaction between species had promoted the integration of human language and elf language, and thus the common language had appeared and become widely used.

Yet it wasn’t easy for other species to master this language, so even Haga, a chief’s son, was barely able to use the common language to communicate.

The primary section of the Chaos School received over 1,000 students each year, and the yearly tuition was only 5 gold coins, which was a lot less than other schools’ tuition fee—at least 50 gold coins a year.

Moreover, students from different species studied together in the Chaos School. It was very common for a human child to sit next to a demon, an elf, a dwarf, or a troll, which was a unique scene that one could only find here, in Chaos City.

After a hundred years of development, Chaos City had achieved peace and harmony, and all of this would be impossible without the Gray Temple and the Chaos School. When two people from different species met on the road, they might recognize each other as classmates or schoolmates, so the hatred faded gradually.

And the people here had a much higher educational level. They also contributed a lot to the peace here.

Mag and Amy were standing at the gate of this large Chaos School, and school was not over yet. An old man and a big orc standing at the gate had declined their request to enter. They had to contact Luna after school, and only then they could enter.

Mag took a look at the big clock outside the gate. “Looks like we’re too early,” he said. It’s 10:30 am. The third class isn’t over. We have to wait till around 11:30.

Amy glanced at the grim-faced orc and tugged at Mag’s clothes. “Father, we can sneak in,” she said quietly.

Mag was taken by surprise. “Sneak in?”

Amy nodded. “Yes. There is a secret passage. I have used it many times.”

10 minutes later, Mag turned to look at the hole covered by thick tree branches and stroked Amy’s head with a smile. Such a smart girl.

“I know which classroom Teacher Luna is in. This way, Father.” She grabbed Mag’s finger and walked to the left quickly.

Mag could see that Amy really wanted to see Miss Field, so he followed her without question. She has watched from outside the classroom before, so I guess it doesn’t matter much.

The teaching buildings were built of stone and wood, two-storied, and had walls made of black square stones. The roofs and second floors were made of wood. There were windows in two walls to let in as much sunlight as possible.

The sound of students’ reading came floating out of every building. All the teaching buildings had been painted sky blue and grass green, looking lively and fresh. Some walls had children’s paintings on them—paintings of different cultures. Such a harmonious sight!

The man who founded the Gray Temple must be quite a visionary. Through these paintings, Mag seemed to see the future that this visionary had pictured.

Start from Chaos City, and spread the idea of integration. When the whole continent is truly integrated, the war among species will probably never occur again.

This idea coincides with mine. If the whole continent is integrated, the number of hybrids will inevitably increase, and when they become a large part of the whole continent, the discrimination against them will naturally disappear. The thought brought a smile to Mag’s face. Maybe I could witness the rise of a new era, and it would be nice if I could give it a little boost.

“Father, why are you laughing?” Amy asked, a little confused. She thought a moment, and said, “I know. You’re happy to see Teacher Luna too.”

“Maybe you’re right.” The sound of children’s reading put Mag in a good mood.

The atmosphere here is really nice. When Amy is old enough next year, I’ll have her study here. She’ll have a much better time here rather than staying home with me. She has mastered her fireball magic, so I don’t think anyone will dare to bully her.

Amy nodded. “Me too. I’m super excited.” Then she put a finger on her lips as she pointed to the building nearby. “Teacher Luna teaches in this classroom. Let’s get closer quietly.”

Mag nodded and said nothing. He stepped softly and followed Amy slowly to the window.

Below the windowsill were two black rocks. Amy hesitated a moment and stepped on them. Now she was just as high as the windowsill.

Mag looked at the two rocks with surprise. Seems like someone put them here for Amy. They’re perfect for her, and there are none below other windowsills.

Luna’s voice came out of the classroom. It was such a sweet and comfortable voice that it could easily attract children’s attention.

She was teaching the multiplication of one-digit numbers. They didn’t have the 9×9 table or the decimal system, so it was not easy to do multiplication. Even Mag couldn’t understand her method of multiplying seven by nine. Poor kids…

Amy listened attentively, her eyes shining in excitement.

Mag stood behind her, listening quietly. It’s not cool to disturb her. I should be careful not to make any sound.

“Meow…” the kitten cried out.
