Chapter 2921: Shade's Teaching

When the Gray Wolf Girl thought of this, she realized something belatedly:

"Mr. Hamilton, Miss Siamnod and Iluna are from the future, and they are also abnormal. So, I am the only normal person here?"

If she realized this when she just met everyone, she would definitely make the hair on her tail stand up while sitting by the fire.

"Meow~"

The cat on Shade's shoulder was trying to stretch out its claws to touch the ears of the Gray Wolf Witch, who didn't know what she was thinking, but this impolite behavior was stopped by Shade.

"If the gods are willing to help, Miss Wilde, please take Emilia back to your time. She has a letter of introduction written by me, and Miss Felina will understand."

Shade held the cat's little paw and said to the green dragon again. The latter certainly agreed. She didn't take Emilia's skills away, but she was willing to help. Of course, she actually wanted to ask Shade what his relationship with those great ladies was.

"Let's go. We may not have the chance to deal with other things after we go up. Let's make sure that everything here has been resolved, right?"

"I still want to seek answers from my Lord."

"I think Mr. Drago will be surprised at what kind of surprise I brought back."

"Shad, do you know how much I miss the meat pies sold at the door of the church in Vista City and Tifa's craftsmanship?"

"I have met many people when I traveled alone, but I will always remember you."

"Shad, do I have to go to new places? I will try my best, I will."

Although the girls had different expressions, they all nodded to Shad, so Shad took the lead in climbing the steps of the spiral staircase and grabbed the railing on the side with his right hand. The top of the stairs was silent and deep. Iluna stepped on the steps in front, Miss Bist and Emilia, who was carrying a bag, looked up side by side, Miss Wilde put away her big tail and stared at Shad's back, and finally Miss Metz turned her head to look at the cluster of fire left in place.

No matter what everyone was thinking at the moment, everyone followed him.

Although the door at the end of the stairs was closed just now, it can be opened with a gentle push. The god still stood there waiting for everyone. After Shade entered the door, Iluna naturally walked to Shade's left hand side, and Emilia hid behind her timidly.

Miss Metz hesitated for a moment, came to Shade's right hand side from the back, and bowed to the god more respectfully than anyone else. Miss Bister was still hiding behind Shade, only showing her wolf ears, but soon she put them away. So Miss Wilder could only stand behind the gray wolf and the elf.

At this time, four stone tablets flew out from the side of humans, werewolves and green dragons. They flew towards the black-robed god with a faint light, and the god touched them one by one with a loving and nostalgic expression:

"It's been too long since someone last gave a lecture in this academy."

"Excuse me, does this mean we have completed the ceremony?"

Shade asked proactively, and the black-robed goddess nodded to him gently again. Although Shade had come into contact with many old gods, only this god had the strongest and gentle feeling as if he could accept all mortals. He was the guardian of teachers and the guardian of knowledge inheritors. He equally accepted all seekers of knowledge:

"You have successfully completed the ceremony. Next, I will keep my promise to give you a lecture, and then you can return to where you started."

But the god did not start the lecture immediately:

"But it seems that you have something else to ask me, right?"

The ones who had something to do were Shade and Miss Metz. Shade's matter was easy to explain:

"This elf lady came from the same era as me and came because of the Time War. I want her to leave with Miss Wilder, and after learning, return to the correct time point according to the rules of the Time War."

As he said that, he pulled out the elf hidden behind Iluna. Emilia lowered her head tremblingly. She did not have the strength to look directly at the god. Even if she just stood still, facing the gentle eyes of the god at this moment was like carrying a mountain on her shoulders.

But she had ridden a unicorn and charged at the evil god with a sword in the summer, so she could muster up the courage to repeat Shade's words.

As for Miss Metz:

"My Lord, I want to know who I am. I want to know which memory is true and which memory is false. I want to know what I am?"

The God smiled and said:

"I can give answers to these two questions, but knowledge and answers never come out of thin air, right?"

"What do we need to do?"

Shade asked, and the God looked at him again, so Emilia took advantage of the pressure of being watched and quickly hid behind Iluna.

"The course taught by four people did complete the ceremony perfectly, but it would be better if more people who came here and were humble and eager to learn could give lectures."

"You mean Emilia?"

Miss Bist clearly saw that the elf was shaking his head, and the God still smiled gently:

"Foreign guest, I mean you."

This request is not too much to think about it carefully, so Shade continued to ask:

"But what should I teach? How about you give me a textbook? For example, "The Moon and Man", "The Shadow of the Moon", "Climbing the Moon" or "The Secret of the Moon". "Falling Tower" or "The Secret of Mount Karas" are also OK."

Although no one understood, they could all feel that Shade's purpose was definitely not simple. "She" beside his ear smiled lightly, and the god in front of him also smiled, but this time the smile should be different from the previous one::

"You are different from them. So, I would like to ask you to teach some knowledge beyond the moon. It's OK to have something clearly related to yourself, such as the perception of life, the understanding of civilization or the analysis of yourself. But you are right, you do need a textbook, but I don't want this textbook to limit your thinking."

The god waved at the wall, and something that sank at the bottom of the water in this dilapidated academy flew to the tower, and passed through the wall of the tower and came to Shade.

It looked like a piece of newly peeled bark, which was larger than two palms added together. The outer surface had a rough texture and was slightly wet because it had just come out of the water. The color of the bark is mixed with light and dark, with a hint of golden brown, and occasionally small cracks winding on it, like ancient symbols.

The inner surface vaguely reveals the inner fibers and exudes a faint wood fragrance. The inside is very smooth, like the secret skin of a tree, and it is slightly cool to the touch. When Xia De's hand gently pressed on it, his fingertips felt a subtle elasticity. Although it was still rougher than real paper, it could still carry the power of words.

The whole piece of bark is relatively flat, and the right pen and ink can indeed leave words on the inside. But the problem is that there is no word on the bark at this time. The cat curiously stretched out its nose to sniff, and then sneezed. Seeing Xia De looking down at it, the cat went straight into his pocket.

[Stranger, you have come into contact with "Whisper". ]

[Although it comes from the First Age, due to its own characteristics, it will not trigger the "Ancient Sound". 】

"She" whispered in his ear, and Shade lowered his head to confirm it, then raised his head and asked:

"Is this the bark of the World Tree?"

The Cherubim said that the "Alien Tree Academy" itself has a piece of World Tree debris, but this debris will no longer cause harm. As for why there are whispering elements on the World Tree debris, Shade can't explain it, but at least it is quite reasonable for this piece of bark to appear at this time.

"Yes, the bark of the World Tree."

The god said with a smile, so Emilia behind Iluna curiously looked at what Shade was holding, but unfortunately she couldn't see it because of the angle.

"But there is no text on it. I can't teach with a book without words."

"You need to write the text."

The god made a request:

"Since your request is related to the elf, then tell a story about the elf. The first way for children to understand the world is to watch it by themselves or listen to those interesting stories. Stories are the prototype of teaching. Sitting around the fire and listening to stories is the first and most primitive way of teaching.

Now you tell a story about the elves and write it on this bark. The world tree is the main axis of time. Even the bark of the world tree remains is enough to construct the world in the story when you write the story. Everyone will participate and become a person in the story."

In other words, Shade needs to become a "screenwriter" to construct a story in which everyone participates. The god in front of him did not want to embarrass him. The necessary means to complete the ceremony have been provided by the god, and all Shade needs to do is think about what he chooses as the content of the story.

But he hesitated:

"Why so. Um. Help me?"

"This question is very rude."

Miss Metz on the side reminded, but the god didn't care. The black-robed goddess smiled and said:

"Because you have passed thirteen trials and are recognized as a wise man by the cherubim. Even when this academy was at its peak, it was difficult to invite mortals like you to teach. This piece of bark of the world tree is what you deserve."

Shad's title of "wise man" played a role in this. If you think about it carefully, since he got this title, it seems that all the existences related to the ancient god of wisdom and knowledge [Secret Keeper] have treated him very specially. And in the "Dice Story Collection", the bonus provided by this title is also quite powerful.

"Please give me some time to think about it. Iluna, you sit down first."

So the five girls carefully walked around Shad and walked towards the cushions, but they didn't expect that the god who was originally standing next to the blackboard also walked towards the cushions. When Iluna, who was walking in front, stopped, the god whose light illuminated the entire room had already picked a cushion and sat down.
