Working Prophet

Chapter 45 Don’t be illiterate

When the blocker was sizing up Li Yu, Li Yu was also sizing him up.

He was a middle-aged man, very tall, almost two meters tall by visual inspection, but very thin, looking like he only weighed sixty or seventy kilograms.

There is a pair of antlers on the head, and there are many branches on the horns, spreading out to both sides.

He didn't hold any weapons in his hands, he just held a thick big book and looked at Li Yu with eyes full of hostility.

"Teacher Anton." Clara saw that the situation was not good, and quickly jumped between the two of them, trying to ease the atmosphere, "Are you going out for a walk too?"

However, the man named Anton ignored her and still stared at Li Yu.

"What book are you holding?"

Li Yu asked, pointing to the big book in Anton's arms.

"Wh...what?" Anton was taken aback, as if he didn't expect Li Yu's focus to be here, but he replied after a while, "This is the "Mengxue Ji", compiled by the high priest of the church, Agoliki , specializes in teaching young children to learn the common language on the continent of Bratis."

Anton's tone couldn't help but become proud when he talked about the church and Agoriki High Priest Anton.

"So you are the teacher sent by the Silver Moon Church to the Arias family to teach Common Language?" Li Yu suddenly understood.

"I am also spreading the light of the Silver Moon Goddess in this land," Anton added, "to prevent the people here from being deceived by pagans like you."

"Who did I deceive?"

"E...uh," Anton almost blurted out Ilea, but luckily he stopped in time.

Miss Rabbit is an up-and-coming believer of the Silver Moon Goddess. She is extremely devout. She even went to the temple to study before. Although she somehow got together with this heretic, she is still far from being excommunicated.

Besides, Ilea is now the Lord of the Green Fields, and the Silver Moon Church's attitude towards these noble families has always been to win over them.

If his words really pissed Ilea off and she went to believe the person in front of her and the Saturday person behind her, then he would have made a big mistake.

And if Ilea is not mentioned, Anton really cannot name the second person who was bewitched by Li Yu.

After all, Li Yu had just entered the castle not long ago. You can't say that he deceived the ugly man with only half his face. Let's not talk about whether this is true or not. That guy is not from the Arias family at all. An Dongya doesn't care what people believe.

In the end, the elementary school teacher could only snort coldly, "Just because you haven't lied to others now doesn't mean you won't lie to others in the future. In short, as long as you stay in Teacup Castle for one day, I will keep an eye on you. I want to see you when Show your feet."

"Okay, then you can teach me Common Language." Li Yu said.

? ? ?

Anton looked confused.

Li Yu explained, "Don't you want to keep an eye on me and wait for me to show off? Is there any better way than staying by my side?"

"Then why should I teach you the lingua franca?" Anton asked rhetorically.

"In order to get in close contact with me and observe my weaknesses, you have to pay a little price."

"…………"

Although Anton didn't like the foreign human in black clothes, he had to admit that what this guy said made sense.

He couldn't argue with that at all.

After a moment of silence, Anton said again, "Although I don't know how you did it, can't you speak the common language and understand us?"

"That's true, but I still can't read." Li Yu said helplessly.

His built-in translation function is limited to language, and cannot translate text for him, so Li Yu is still strictly illiterate in this continent.

This matter can be big or small.

After all, the literacy rate of the Red Lion Empire was the same. Almost all the civilians were blind. Even among the nobles, some felt that literacy was too tiring and chose to lie flat.

But as a modern person, Li Yu is very aware of the importance of words.

Considering what he is going to do next, literacy is also necessary to be put on the agenda.

Anton thought about it, and seemed to be trying to weigh the pros and cons, and he raised his head again after a while.

"Hehe, it seems that you have great confidence in the gods behind you."

"Yes, because I am pious enough."

Anton was furious when he heard this, "What do you mean by that? Are you insinuating that I don't dare to be with you because I'm not pious enough? Okay, then I'll teach you common language and tear apart your poor disguise." I will let Miss Ilea and everyone in the castle see your true colors!"

"Then it's settled," Li Yu said.

Anton was not polite either, pointing at Li Yu and shouting on the spot, "Come with me now! I'll teach you common words first."

He held his head high, his demeanor and tone did not seem to be teaching people to read, but rather an invitation to a duel.

Li Yu nodded, "Thank you."

Clara looked at the figures of the two going away, and stood there dumbfounded.

For a moment, he didn't know who won the argument. Mr. Anton seemed to be full of energy, and Merlin seemed to have got what he wanted.

But to say who is the biggest winner, it has to be the little maid herself.

Literacy... must be quite time-consuming, and Fausto told her that her job today was to serve Merlin well, which meant that she could fish from now on.

Clara couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of this, and she bounced around to find someone to play games with.

…………

When Li Yu returned to Room No. 8, he also had a rare look of tiredness on his face.

He felt as if he had returned to the third year of high school, studying English with all his might, while Anton was playing the role of his English teacher who spoke like a machine gun, ignoring the pleas of the whole class, repeatedly procrastinating and assigning a lot of homework.

However, Li Yu also gained a lot. He learned a lot of commonly used words.

Li Yu planned to write them all down on the subway later in case he forgot them later.

When he pushed the door open and went out, he saw Xu Mengyuan standing in the corridor, getting ready to get off work, with two cups of lemon tea in his hand.

Xu Mengyuan handed one of the cups to him, "Here, it's yours. You've been very busy during this period. It's time to take a good rest and refresh yourself in the past two days."

"Um?"

"Today is Friday." Seeing that Li Yu still seemed a little unresponsive, Xu Mengyuan reminded, "Tomorrow and the next two days are off."

"oh."

Although Li Yu used Saturday as his divine name, he himself hadn’t had a normal Saturday for a long time, and even worked overtime on Sunday, so much so that he had already forgotten about it, and he didn’t even inform Miss Rabbit before he left. .

"Can I come and work overtime tomorrow?" Li Yu asked.

"No, the regulations are the regulations." Xu Mengyuan said simply, "And the instruments and equipment used in Arrival also need maintenance and maintenance. Let's see you on Monday."

"Well, see you on Monday."

Thank you Tommy is chief, hcen976431 and other children's boots for the reward~ It's the most evil Monday again.
