"... That's it for today's training. I hope everyone will work harder and try to run this magic academy."
In the newly built classroom, Benjamin had just finished training his mage. He closed the book, glanced at the tired faces below, nodded, and said so.
-It is really not an easy task to open a magic academy.
As long as the hardware environment is spent and time spent, anything can be built for him. But things like teacher strength are not that easy. Not every mage is willing to be a teacher for others, and not every mage has this talent. In this hasty time, they compiled the syllabus and textbooks, but they could only bite the bullet and train the teachers.
Benjamin has more than a hundred mages, but only about seventy are actually willing to be teachers. And they will face more than 2,000 students next, not to mention having to divide them into subjects. This is a huge challenge for everyone.
In fact, they have also thought about recruiting more mages from the outside world to be teachers. But to be honest, Benjamin, the mage from outside, still felt a little unsure. Not to mention the issue of trust, those people have never worked with Benjamin, and they may not be able to integrate into their strange team atmosphere in a short period of time. Instead, they may be like the mages that Finch brought just now, looking confused the whole time. force.
At least, for the first batch of academies, he can only use the people under him as teachers.
Fortunately, these mages have a positive attitude. They have followed Benjamin for so long, and have gradually condensed into a whole, and will not give up easily.
In fact, they are also looking forward to the new magic academy, and their attitude is so proactive that it is even a bit scary.
"Master Benjamin, Elemental Studies is a very important course with a lot of content. I think we should allocate more class hours to Elemental Studies, otherwise it may not be finished."
"If the class is assigned to elemental science, what should we do with our magic theory research? There are only so many class hours in total. You already have one or two classes in the morning, and now you have to take up our afternoon class time?"
"I'm not trying to take up your class, I just want to say that some relatively unimportant subjects can be balanced out a little bit..."
Benjamin couldn't help but hold his head while listening to the debate at the podium.
What a group of dedicated teachers!
In fact, the salary they can get from this position is not much, who makes Benjamin tight now? However, their enthusiasm has not diminished. An excellent college environment is not only conducive to students. From another perspective, teachers can also use those venues and tools, and their own magic practice progress will be much faster.
Not to mention the atmosphere of intense discussion.
Different from Benjamin’s practice, the paths of most mages are full of various bottlenecks. Many times, they meditate for half a year but get nothing due to some small factors. Discussing magic issues with each other has become the most effective method discovered by Benjamin's mages.
"Every time I feel like my meditation is not progressing, I go and have a fight with Frank, and the situation usually gets better," Leila said.
Benjamin was also helpless about this.
His way of meditating is completely different from ordinary people, so he doesn't have this kind of trouble. However, this is also equivalent to an invisible weight - their team atmosphere is good and peers can promote each other, so everyone is still willing to stay.
Of course, this has also led to a problem, that is, people like this really like to quarrel now.
"Even if it's not the main subject, I think you should give the secondary subject the respect it deserves. Otherwise, within a few days of school starting, why don't you just walk into the classroom and say, 'The teacher of the history of magic theory is not feeling well. Today we will switch to applied magic. ', and then our class will be yours?"
"I didn't mean that, I just said..."
Benjamin's head was pounding.
Before the argument spread, he tiptoed and sneaked out of the classroom.
Standing in the empty corridor, the sound of the argument was isolated inside the door, Benjamin breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that the whole world had become quiet.
"It's really a headache. Let's start school as soon as possible and let them use their energy on students..."
He muttered to himself while massaging his neck. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, interrupting his small murmur that only he could hear.
"Hey, are you lazy here?"
Benjamin turned around and saw Miles leaning on the corner of the corridor, winking and smiling.
"Why do you have the time to come here? Aren't you too busy with the king's mission?" Benjamin asked in surprise.
After Ikol withdrew, he never saw Miles. I heard from the king that he had been busy cleaning up the remaining church forces in Carites and had no time to show up.
And really speaking, Miles is considered to be on the King's side. After the construction of the Magic Academy began, the positions of Benjamin and the King were not completely consistent as before, so Miles had no obligation to help Benjamin anymore.
Therefore, his appearance here today was quite unexpected by Benjamin.
"It's over." Miles shrugged and said, "I got rid of all the church remnants I could find. If there are any left, there's nothing I can do."
"Then you today..."
"Come here and see me." Miles replied with a smile, "Besides, after completing that task, the relationship between me and the king is considered to be clean. I am now a free mercenary."
Benjamin suddenly understood, nodded, and said, "I thought you sold your entire body to the king."
"Who would do such a stupid thing..."
"By the way." Benjamin suddenly thought of something and asked, "Aren't you a legendary mercenary? Then you should be familiar with those people in the Mercenary Association, right? You can find a way to help me contact those people."
When negotiating with people from the Mercenary Association, we were met with a setback. They said we still have to "wait and see", but if we have Miles' connection, it should be much easier, right
"Why are you contacting them?" Miles was a little confused.
"Invite them to invest." Benjamin said immediately, "They invest money in the academy. After our academy graduates, they will introduce more mages to them as mercenaries. What's more, as two neutral and free organizations, The academy and the Mercenary Association should have a win-win cooperation."
"...You haven't even started school yet, and you're already going to keep pace with the Mercenary Association and publicize it outside as two major neutral and free organizations?"
When Benjamin heard this, he laughed twice awkwardly and said, "As for the future plans... don't laugh either. I think it won't take long for us to get there."
"Don't be too optimistic." Miles suddenly stopped smiling and said, "Although everyone is looking forward to your magic academy, I also discovered some bad signs during the execution of the mission. "
