Chapter 83 The Fool (3)
The news of Kain enrolling in three new magic courses had gradually spread throughout the first year students. There was no other way, after all, his expression was really too dazzling, as if he was afraid that people wouldn't see it.
And without knowing when, the title "the fool of the academy" was placed on Kain's head.
Most people were a little curious to meet this student once. Little did they know that the main character of the whole story, Kain, was leisurely returning to the dormitory with his notebook in hand.
After three different classes, Kain had filled half of the notebook. Each topic was annotated meticulously and in great detail. However…
He still failed, turning theory into practice was much more difficult than he thought.
Kain checked the system, as long as a seed appeared, no matter how small it was, the system would display it as a "level 0" placed behind the magic skill. Unfortunately, this barren land didn't have a single seed.
For the first time in his life, someone as confident as Kain that he would learn everything quickly was faced with a real challenge.
But that's only natural, even true talents in magic have difficulty trying to learn magic they don't have the talent for, or more accurately, aren't suited for, let alone someone as untalented as Kain.
However, Kain did not give up.
He is not afraid of the difficult road, he is only afraid of having no way forward.
So, until the moment he trudged back to the dormitory, Kain was still focused on his notebook.
"You're back, Kain. How was the class?"
Hardy asked in a friendly tone, Kain looked up from his notebook and nodded.
"Pretty good, the teachers here are really dedicated."
"I think so too, just listening to the lecture I can feel my magical level improving."
Hardy grinned, as if he had let down all his defenses in front of Kain, excitedly telling about the day.
Only, the more he listened to Hardy, the darker Kain's face became.
"Hardy, is that really that effective?"
Kain still couldn't help but doubt. Hardy didn't think much and answered.
"Yeah, it's like... like what? Oh yeah, it's like when my dad taught me to write, it's obviously my own handwriting, but it's actually my dad holding my hand to write so I can get used to that feeling. But it's a bit more abstract... it's quite hard to describe."
"I… got it."
Kain hesitated, he didn't really understand anything.
Since childhood, Kain had always learned everything very quickly through his strong method of memorizing and analyzing information. But now he had memorized everything, analyzed everything, but the results were nothing.
It was like there was some important step missing that he didn't know about…
"Oh right, today it seems like some idiot signed up for all three magic subjects without even starting yet? Really…"
"That person is me."
Kain replied, his tone slightly gloomy.
Hardy's mind seemed to stop for a moment, then he forced a smile and said.
"Oh, you mean…"
"That idiot is me, literally."
The conversation fell into disarray once more, the smile on Hardy's lips already cracking.
"So... so that rumor must be exaggerated…"
"It's true."
"..."
Hardy was embarrassed and retreated, bowing his head to read his book.
Okay, that's embarrassing!
Kain sighed, showing a weariness that was barely perceptible, but the will in his eyes did not dim.
As Alisa said, he would put in ten times the effort of others just to get one-tenth the results of others.
That Kain can do.
…
Hearing the door open, Toris raised his head from the pile of documents.
Only saw Alisa as if she had gone through a fierce battle, exhausted all her energy as she dragged herself back to the room.
"Alisa, what's wrong?"
Toris asked worriedly, he was afraid she was exhausted from teaching three classes in one day.
At the same time, Toris also felt weird, teaching three classes was indeed quite tiring if one was not a senior teacher. But it shouldn't be this tiring.
Alisa hesitated, seemingly considering whether she should tell Toris about this after all.
Toris didn't urge her either, and the two fell into silence for a moment.
Finally, Alisa decided to speak up.
"You know, this morning when I came to class…"
After hearing what Alisa said, Toris almost couldn't help but bang the table.
This is so foolish!
If so, wouldn't that student waste a year of development?
Toris also did not doubt what Alisa said, because Alisa's character was trustworthy. Moreover, she had no reason to make up stories about such a student.
"Have you tried convincing that student? This isn't a joke."
"I... I tried three times, but that student was so stubborn, I couldn't convince him…"
"Don't feel guilty, Alisa. I don't blame you."
Toris gently patted Alisa's shoulder to comfort her. Seeing her lower her head and clasp her hands together, Toris knew this was Alisa's expression when she felt guilty.
He was Alisa's teacher after all.
Besides, it really wasn't her fault.
"Alisa, do you know what that student's name is? I want to see if I can convince this person."
Toris said seriously.
Teachers cannot interfere with students' decisions, but Toris cannot just watch a good seed self-destruct.
This is the consciousness of a teacher.
Alisa also nodded seriously.
"This student's name is Kain…"
When she said this, Alisa suddenly saw Toris's expression stiffen like a statue.
"Mr.Toris, do you... know that student?"
Toris was still stunned.
Of course he knew, how could he not know? He even talked about Kain in front of Alisa before.
Wonder how Alisa will feel when she finds out that the genius student in Toris' words has become the fool of the entire academy.
"I... okay, I'll find a way to convince him."
Toris rubbed his forehead wearily. He couldn't understand why a wise man like Kain would make such a confusing and... stupid decision.
