He approved it.
The Dean, who had gone to report to the Principal, couldnt have imagined in his wildest dreams that the Principal would grant permission for this matter.
This has never happened before, Teacher Ethan. Not only is a new class allowed for each new teacher in each department, but now, getting approval for the creation of a new class, and that too for a practical class!
It was an unprecedented event. Having worked here for over 20 years, the Dean had seen numerous talents come and go.
In the past, there was Sword Emperor, and currently, there was Claudie Hyde.
But the new teacher before him was more shocking than both of them combined.
Ethan possessed the teaching talent of Claudie and exceptional skill with the sword, equivalent to Sword Emperor.
Having just one of these would make someone a master.
Ethan had both talents.
I thought hed want a detailed explanation, but he approved it right away.
What kind of practical class are you planning to conduct, and in what manner? You said it wouldnt be an outdoor class, no monsters involved, and not even student sparring.
It will be a practical class using golems.
A practical class using golems?
Ethan showed his class plan to the Knight Department Dean. The Dean read through the plan, wearing a puzzled expression by the end.
Is this even possible? Golems cant do things like this. Our students at Ivecar should easily be able to predict a golems movements.
Its not an ordinary golem. Well be using a special golem, one that moves in a way similar to real combat.
Ridiculous. Where on earth can you find such a golem?
I made it.
You made it?
Yes, along with my escort.
Thinking there couldnt be anything more surprising, the Dean couldnt fathom the extent of Ethan Whiskers talent.
Then, I take it that you have given permission. Ill proceed with the Introduction to Practical Swordsmanship for the second semester. Ill personally inform the Principal of the permission he granted.
Teacher Ethan.
The Dean called Ethan with a serious expression.
Theres an interdepartmental exchange scheduled for the second semester. Claudie will probably be a candidate, but it would be good if you could compete with him.
Ethan simply nodded without giving a verbal response.
The interdepartmental exchange was a practice for the biggest festival of the winter, the Academy Exchange Festival.
Now that it had come to this, the Dean had no choice but to follow the Principals will. The Principal had already sensed Ethans potential during the interview.
If they followed the traditional rules, Ethans potential might be stifled.
They probably dont see me as just a new teacher anymore.
As Ethan nodded, two notification windows appeared simultaneously.
-The Knight Department Dean sends his trust to you!
-Record-breaking in the shortest time!
-Your fame is rising significantly!
-Gained the authority to open a new class!
-Record-breaking in the shortest time!
-Your fame is rising significantly!
The trust from the Knight Department Dean and the authority to open a new class.
Both of these were impossible tasks for a new teacher to handle. Therefore, Ethan received a clear reward for them.
Satisfied with his rewarding outcome, Ethan smiled lightly and bowed his head.
Ill do my best.
Encounter day with the Followers of the Moon.
Until the day of the encounter, Ethan had been hunting on Grand Horn every day.
As a result, not only did he enhance his practical senses, but he also achieved another desired achievement.
-Achievement unlocked!
-Gained Likes for achieving the [Wolf Slaughterer] achievement.
-Gained 5 Likes!
Ive killed so many wolves that I have too much wolf leather now.
Ethans spatial pocket was currently filled with numerous materials. Although he intended to entrust these materials to an outstanding blacksmith to make equipment, he hadnt had the chance due to various other tasks.
Including Martynas Lane would be a good idea.
Setting Martynas Lane as the main actor while positioning himself on the side.
I just need to lay my hands on it and gain a reputation and the trust of the parents.
Ethan quickly formulated the plan.
I need to get a bit closer.
Ethan had kept a considerable distance from the followers at the moment. The Great Thiefs Mastery he used wasnt highly proficient yet.
It may work against demons, but these guys are originally specialized in covert operations.
So, they might have higher vigilance than demons.
It was not easy to sneak up and kill them in a surprise attack.
What should I do
While Ethan was gradually closing the distance, the follower suddenly looked back. At the same moment, a massive figure rushed from Ethans side with a loud crash toward the follower.
It seemed as if a mountain was moving.
Ugh!
This is a sacred place. Dirty humans chasing filthy things shouldnt come here.
This beast can talk!
White fur and golden mane. It was the owner of Grand Horn, the Mountain King White Tiger.
Phew, luckily, I didnt get noticed.
But he definitely knew.
When facing high-ranking followers of the Moon with Great Thiefs Mastery, caution was required.
I need to raise my proficiency.
As Ethan watched, a fierce battle unfolded between the white tiger and the follower.
Matching its name, every time the white tiger swung its front paw, the ground shattered, and shockwaves spread around.
The followers of the Moon desperately tried to avoid the white tigers movements, but he managed to reach out for the golden leash at the right moment as if that was all he needed.
Roar!
The white tigers speed increased.
The follower, who momentarily missed his move, had his shoulder cut deep. Despite the profound wound, the followers of the Moon successfully scattered something from their hands.
Keuk!
Creatures that mimic human speech, indeed. They naturally acquire divine power. Especially you
The robed follower roughly removed his hood, revealing a smile.
I can feel the energy we were looking for. I never thought things would be solved so smoothly.
Krrrrrrr!
Bark louder! The more you do, the more demonic energy will seep into you. The energy will gnaw at your mind and plunge you into chaos. That will be the end. You will be tamed by this golden leash.
W-What in the world
Its a dense magic that neutralizes the sacred power you possess. A secret given to us by our god.
The followers of the Moon laughed heartily.
Because the Mountain King White Tiger began to stagger, vomiting a lot of fresh blood.
Youre holding up well.
Since he needed to make use of the white tiger, the followers of the Moon did not inflict any more wounds. Instead, he took out something similar to what he had scattered before and held it in their hands.
And in the moment they were about to scatter it again,
Whoosh!
The follower of the Moon turned around, simultaneously scattering the powder on the ground. He then drew a thin black sword from his waist and swung it.
Crash!
Shaaaaaagh-!
As the two swords clashed, a cold air spread around.
Who are you?
Just an animal lover passing by.
Animal lover?
At Ethans words, veins popped on the Moon followers forehead.
