Chapter 929 929 Fallen Army Basics

There were looks of confusion everywhere when Wolfe arrived at the University, where the seminars would be held, but accompanied by dozens of Nobles.

The training ran all day from late morning until dinner every day for two weeks, so seeing anyone arrive in a large group implied that they had been together for business or other reasons early that morning.

If it had been Wolfe plus the Ladies and Countess Dewinter, it would be understandable, as he had been staying with the Countess. But he arrived with a large group of other Nobles as well.

Saint Petros was there to greet them, and Wolfe handed him a small bag as a greeting, leaving the man confused.

"It's a gift. I made one extra this morning while everyone was making their requests, so I thought it was only right that I give it to you." He explained.

Petros opened the bag to see what was inside, then laughed.

"You wouldn't dare."

Beside him, Cassie chuckled. "He already did, and they've been distributed. Nobody knows what the others got, though."

"You know, a hundred years from now, when everyone has forgotten where this came from, they're going to think that I was the most vain person in the world." Petros whispered, as he realized that most of the surrounding Nobles didn't know that they had all gotten statues of him to defend their houses.

"I should have paid to enrol some of my staff in the basic magic course. It sounds like it is very much worthwhile. I will have to pick some beastkin for the next courses." The Noble replied, looking enlightened.

Of course, it would be beastkin, who wouldn't be counted as Nobles if their magic reached Rank Two. The man didn't want to lose any of his staff, after all. But if everyone was teaching the pacifist bunnies cleaning and gardening magic, then the chances of anyone mistreating them would plummet.

Not just because they could defend themselves, but because they would have a much higher value to the estates they worked for. Losing an abused maid was no big deal, you could replace them. Losing an abused maid who could use magic was like giving a gift to another Noble in town, whoever took them in.

Petros cleared his throat. "The first course of the day is military essentials, as that is the primary reason we're all gathered here. Once that is over, they will start teaching the course you were after. I am teaching advanced combat magic a few classrooms over, but I would invite you to join me for lunch. We have much to discuss."

"Of course, Saint Petros. I will join you for lunch, and my companions will surely be busy discussing the morning's lectures."

Petros nodded. They certainly would, and the other Nobles would be happy to fill them in on anything that they didn't understand. For a bunch of people from another world, Wolfe and his friends were surprisingly good at blending in and making friends.

The doors to the classrooms opened, and Wolfe led his witches in to sit at the back of the room, where they could observe everyone, and where they could be close enough to Molly and Lula to talk. Bringing servants to sit in the front row, the premium spots where you could most easily ask the professor for clarifications, would just be considered rude by the ranking Nobles.

"Welcome everyone, first, we will cover the basics, and then we will get right to work. Who can tell me the three basic spells for military service?" The elderly professor asked.

One of the young men in the front raised his hand. "That would be the defensive ward, flame barrage and empowerment group spells."

"Superb. Now, I will draw them on the board, and we will individually activate them, then I will answer questions and provide guidance to those whose spell quality doesn't match their strength."
