Chapter 739 - 739 Being a Kind Professor

739 Being a Kind Professor

After returning Angela and Kron to Cassau, I also took a nap for a bit before leaving again.

This time, I have no destination to go. Sonia is still trying to find out where she is located at, and none of the kings asked me to do anything. Or maybe it’s because Sonia is too busy to be of help right now.

Whatever the case, I’m not busy now. I think I’ll go to the circus later tonight. But it’s still afternoon so I will take a walk in Cassau.

I don’t know what to do so I just entered cafe, restaurant, bar, and any other places I haven’t been to. Those place were open quite recently so I have never been there before.

I also checked to see if there’s any cult members in the city. Since it has been a while that I checked the city, there might be some new residents who were part of the cult. Or maybe it’s hunters who just recently traveled here.

No one I found has explosive device in their mouth. Although there were some that I suspect to be expert level mages. But if it’s just expert level mages, I don’t think there will be any trouble. The guards here are already strong enough to handle some expert level mages if they work together.

As for master level mages, there’s no one here reached that level yet. Or they would know that I’m looking at them.

I guess Cassau is safe. Maybe it’s much safer than the capital. Because I’m here after all.

I didn’t do much today. I’m still resting.

.....

My body is fine, but I used portal too much during the mission, so I need to rest or my magic will go wild and difficult to control. Just like how Angela and Kron were unable to use magic properly when they were exploring dungeon this morning.

So I will only use portal two more times today at least. Going to the circus, and then return back to Cassau.

Unless there’s an emergency, I won’t use portal any more than that.

I also checked the university again. I’ve never been here as student. And no one would know that I was actually a professor for air element. Except those who attended my class obviously.

Since Sara is busy, she can’t teach class for the next few days. But I heard that Dean is in charge for air element class so it’s still progressing.

Thanks to Sara, she could put practice into words and theories so other people can learn it themselves. That’s why Dean can teach air element class. And I just saw him leaving air element class. Seems like today’s lesson is over.

Some students from air element class then grabbed their guns, given to them by Sara after they finished a certain exam, and practice shooting outside.

They can also borrow the university-owned guns for air mages to practice by themselves. But the quality is worse than a gun given by Sara. Which she got from Marie.

Air element is becoming more and more popular. Even more since the professor teaching was participating in the tournament before. So air mages from all over the country, and even from another kingdom, came here just so they can learn how to shoot.

Some of the students here even became part of the shooting squad during the mission in Consenza before. They have became so good at shooting. Still not as good as me though.

I walk to the shooting practice area, which was created after air element became popular after I left. There, I see the air element students shoot a moving target.

The practice is using a mechanism that will throw something far and fast, and then the shooter can try to shoot them down. The thing that became the target is created from clay, so it’s fine if they got destroyed since the material is easy to find. Or they can just ask any earth mage to create more. There’s even a student who created his own targets and bullets using earth magic.

“This is nice seeing how air element became so popular,” I said to myself.

“It’s all thanks to me! If not for me, no one would expect that air mage can do things like this,” Victoria said.

Yeah. It’s thanks to her that air mage is as developed as it is today. Not just about shooting, but also changing the properties in the air.

I heard that Sara teaches shooting with guns first before she teaches the students to change the property in the air.

I’m interested to see the students inhaling sleeping gases during class and went to sleep. Must be the most peaceful class ever.

As I watched the air mages practicing shooting, one male student approached me.

“Hey, you! I haven’t seen you in class before. You always skip class, huh? Are you jealous that I got my own personal gun instead of using the school-owned gun?”

...What the hell?

It’s been a while that I interacted with other people outside of mission. And this is the first thing someone said to me?

I always forgot that standard bullies love to pick on me. they would pick on me thinking that I’m an easy target because I move alone, or they would pick on me because I’m always with several beautiful girls.

I bet he’s the type to flirt with Kayla or other girls if he sees any of them. And he woulld get kicked in the nut like any other men who tried to approach them.

It’s been so long since I last seen Kayla kicked someone in the nut. I guess because of the tournament, she has became so popular and no one ever thinks that she’s an easy target anymore.

Maybe I should gain some popularity so no one can mess with me. But when I know that the other side is much weaker than me, it’s funny to see it.

“What? You can’t talk back because of a simple provocation? How weak! Ahahaha!”

I’ve seen him before trying to shoot. He might have his own gun, but his shooting accuracy is worse than most who practiced here. Even some who used the school-owned gun were much better.

Oh, one of the students I used to teach recognized me. She was also in the shooting squad back in Consenza. Will she try to stop him?

“Professor Sara told me that if I see Professor Roy getting picked on to just watch because he can take care of it himself. And she said that he should be able to hear me so I’m here talking to myself,” she said.

...Sara, what the hell were you teaching them? But she’s right though.

I guess I’ll take care of it then.

Behind my back, I transformed Victoria into a gun and grabbed the bullets provided by the school to use for practice. It’s time to show the bully that I’m not someone he can look down upon.

“What is that gun! So small! You think you can shoot anything with it! Maybe you can ask me for a better gun. I’m close with Professor Sara. I can ask her for one,” he said.

I ignored him and walked toward the tool that throws the clay targets. I activated it and set it to throw the clay as fast as possible and set it so it will shoot rapidly.

The bully laughed at me thinking that I’m just showing off. Well, I am indeed trying to show off.

Then it started. The machine shoots clay targets rapidly.

But I’m faster. I shoot the clay target one by one. And even when I’m reloading the bullet, I can still shoot all the clay targets perfectly. Without missing anything.

I actually still train my shooting accuracy. At least I need to be at Sara’s level. And I think I have reached her level in accuracy.

Combined with my physical abilities, I’m sure that I’m the best shooter in the world. Though there are too little shooter since it’s just recently became popular.

Everyone was shocked at what I can do. Even my former students. And Dean even watched me from the window of a nearby building.

I acted like I returned my gun to the holster, then I walked to the bully who is too shocked and thinks that he must have provoked someone he shouldn’t.

Usually, I would like to bully him back. But he has a gun. Which means that Sara trusted him enough for him to have his own gun. And he could be our ally in fighting the cult. So I must act like a professor here.

“I don’t think my student, Sara, is close enough to you. But I appreciate your offer even though I don’t need one,” I said.

The bully is too embarrassed after knowing that I actually Sara’s teacher. The others even looked at me with expectation.

I guess I know what I do for today. I’ll teach them to use a gun. Even though I promised myself to not use magic other than portal later.

It’s fine since I will just teach them and not using magic anymore. Even if I do use magic, it won’t be much since it’s just compressing air.

“Your body is not strong enough to handle the recoil. That’s why your accuracy is terrible. I know that you compressed the air in your gun more to have more powerful shoot. But putting too much on power will sacrifice your accuracy. Now, try to not compress too much air. Just enough for your body to handle it. And during your free time, do some push ups or other exercise to improve your strength. That way your body can endure bigger recoil and you can shoot stronger bullet.”

Instead of bullying him back, I gave him an advise. It’s good that he’s listening well.

“And for everyone else! Today is my free time after a while! So if you have anything to ask about air magic, you can ask me!”

How is it? I’m being a nice professor, right?

Doing this is not bad. They will be stronger and more useful in battle.

I answered all the students’ question they are satisfied. It feels good to have students who sincerely want to learn.
