Shinji Matou At Your Service

Chapter 1152: · Elquet·Dating (Part 2)

Views:

On this day, a legend emerged in this little-known Asian city.

A pair of outstanding-looking men and women, a legend that dominates the entire game hall.

From competitive arcade machines to claw machines, from horizontal clearing games to sports like motorcycle basketball.

He can quickly master any game, no matter how difficult the machine is to operate. He can sweep the entire game hall in just one afternoon and become the undisputed king.

There is no doubt that this couple is the True Ancestor's princess Elquet Bronstad and her bodyguard "Blue Knight" Matou Shinji.

The reason for their dominance is simple, because they all cheat.

Although the two agreed not to use power beyond the limits of ordinary people, it was only the power, and there were no restrictions on other aspects. Dynamic vision, reaction ability, and the calculation ability brought by the huge mental power, with these attributes as the foundation, it would be difficult to get bad results.

What's more, as they were playing, Elquet also developed a desire to win against Shinji, which led to a confrontation that was far more than a game. In the end, he received a lot of envious glances and a lot of prizes in exchange for high points.

Because there were so many prizes that could be redeemed, Shinji and Elquet only picked a few as souvenirs, gave the rest to the onlookers, and then left.

The sun was setting when she walked out of the gate. After a crazy afternoon of fun, the princess stretched out her body facing the sunset and said contentedly:

"Oh, it's so refreshing. Playing games by yourself is fun, and playing with others is also fun. It's one more place worth visiting."

"There are many places, but I suggest you don't come too often." Shinji, who had a half-human-height teddy bear hanging on his body, reminded.

"Why?"

"Because the owner of the arcade will not be happy. He opened the arcade to make money. Not only will he not make any money with the way we play, he will even lose money. I don't know if you noticed, but when I went to exchange the gift, his face turned green."

"Ahahaha, that seems to be the case. Then I will go there once every half a month, no, once a month."

"Remember to go to different arcades."

"Yeah, Shinji is so smart."

Arquette smirked.

"You are too stupid."

Shinji couldn't help but hit her on the head with the inflatable hammer he got in exchange for her. Not to be outdone, she picked up a doll and fought back.

"Okay, you dare to hit me."

"I'll beat you."

"I'll hit you, too."

Both sides only attacked and did not defend, and soon they were hit many times. Many passers-by complained: "Look, there is a pair of stupid lovers." Then they stopped with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

Because they were playing while walking, the place where they stopped was quite far away from the game center, just outside an iron fence.

"Is this... a school?"

"Yes, it is a school. Judging from the name, it should be a middle school."

"Why is there no one? There were many people when we looked before."

"Because it's past school time, the day's study life is over."

"Is that so? Shall we go in and take a look?"

"What's so good about it? It's just a school."

"I just want to see it. Besides, there's no one here, so it won't hurt if we go in, ok?"

That makes a lot of sense.

Although Shinji had been sick of staying in school in his previous life, Elquet had no experience in this area and was easily curious. Sneaking in when no one was around would not cause any harm.

So he finally didn't refuse and took Elquet over the wall and sneaked into the campus after school.

I casually strolled through the empty playground, tiptoed into the teaching building, and chatted casually while wandering around.

"Elquet, you know, a school is a place where people learn knowledge."

"I know this. Humans have had schools for a long time, and the more time we spend in school, the more time we have to spend in school."

"Yes, in modern society, the average person leaves school and enters society at the age of 20."

"It's so long. Then why didn't you go to school, Shinji? You must be under 20 years old."

"I did go to school. I went whenever I was at home. Although I didn't go as often as Sakura and the others, I did follow the rules for my studies."

"Oh oh, then why don't you need to go so often?"

"Because I have already acquired most of the knowledge taught in school through other means."

"I see." Elquite nodded. "What do schools like this usually teach?"

"Social knowledge. From learning history to gaining a deep understanding of one's own country's culture. Physics, mathematics, and chemistry to deepen your understanding. And English, which you will use when you go abroad."

"I see. I thought it was about fighting, magic, or something like that."

"So you were waiting for me here. Are you still holding a grudge?" Shinji knew that Elquet was recalling the bad experience when they first met, and shrugged helplessly.

"Ahaha, I got it right~" Clapping her hands, the pure white princess walked into an unlocked classroom and sat in the first seat in the first row. "I'm a student, and you're a teacher—teacher, I have a question."

"What's the problem, Elquet-san?" Shinji asked as he walked to the podium naturally.

"Have you put all the knowledge and experience you learned in school to good use?"

"How can I possibly use all of them? I've learned so many math formulas, but the only thing I can actually use is basic arithmetic. English is meaningless unless you go abroad, and the same is true for other subjects. Unless you're engaged in a highly professional job, the knowledge that humans have learned over the past 20 years can be used for less than 10% of it."

"Then why do you do such meaningless things? You humans have very little time, so you probably don't have the leisure to do such things, right?" Elquet expressed his incomprehension.

It's a complicated question indeed. Shinji shook his head. His school self really couldn't answer it.

"To be honest, I used to think so, but later I understood it a little bit. The knowledge taught in school is not for you to use, but for selection. To select talents who can truly apply this knowledge, to conduct more in-depth research, to further promote the development of corresponding fields, and ultimately give back to the entire human society and make it more developed."

"How many talents do these people have?"

"I don't know. I haven't counted it. I guess it's one in a thousand, one in ten thousand, or even less. And even so, these people can't use all the knowledge they have learned in life. They just play a role in the corresponding fields."

"I can't believe it. It's such a waste. So many lives were wasted just for a few people."

Elquet's voice was very deep, and for a moment Shinji even thought that it was Gaia asking questions through her mouth.
