Chapter 6: A Step into History

  07.11 cycle thirteen, Ba'seth, of calendar Moonrachia

  It's early in the morning… especially for someone who is pretty much unemployed…

  But somehow I’ve managed to wake up and arrive at Arnentiasis Academy, or should I just say that I’ve met with the principal right now?

  Currently, I’m sitting across from him, Mr. Noah, a principal of Arnentiasis Academy

  Noah Rel Orlier, A man in his 40s, but still looked young enough as if he were still in his 20s, the reason? Mana, or should I say mages? Once someone properly handles mana and becomes a mage, they basically gain regenerative abilities, given that mana itself is magic

  Imagine something like that were flowing regularly from the world itself through the physical body, constantly cleansing and renewing it

  Honestly? It’s the most logical thing that humans on earth could understand without magic knowledge

  Set aside all of that, this man could easily become a top model or even an idol if he were teleported to earth, it's just how good looking he is… It's not like I’m envious of his appearance

  “I’ve heard it from Rheya already, she said you need a job, right?” Mr. Noah said it gently while smiling

  “Ah, yes, is it possible? I don’t really have much experience as a professor or even teacher assistant, though.” Let's just be honest, can’t imagine what could happen with him, given he’s in his prime…

  “Hmmm… It's not impossible per se, but there aren’t any teacher in metamagic study who needed an assistant...” He was pondering a bit, while tapping the table, giving a soft sound of tapping

  “Any teacher is fine-“ Then he cut me off

  “Good, there’s one teacher that’s really in need of an assistant at the moment.” He said it quickly and confidently, as if he was waiting for me to say it

  If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

  A small archive of history study and its schedule were flying toward me in slow motion and precisely

  History huh? History is a hard subject, even though this world technology actually surprises me, but it's nothing close to the early modern period

  So, nothing exists like cloud storage and things to record history, which are mostly in scrolls, monuments, and such, to learn history from

  Reading the archive itself already tells me who’s going to be the one I’m assisting

  Millenia mye Lilac, Lilac a duke family of Arnentia kingdom, which is known for their blood, a family that will definitely and guaranteed will give birth to a genius, and I’m sure she’s the current genius of her family…

  “Something wrong?”

  His voice kind of woke me up from my deep thought

  “I'm sorry, I’m just thinking about something else.” Then he nods a bit

  “I wonder why you wanted to work as an assistant, though? You had an impressive record as a former student before, no?”

  “You could try to get a job from the Mage's Tower with all of that”

  I mean… he’s correct, but somehow, I feel Mages Tower itself, not safes

  Who knows? The moment I set my feet there, someone might feel weird shit on me and kill me on the spot?

  But it's not really the main reason… Mages Tower itself is on The'ireth continent, it's like the main continent of this world, it's too far, and I don’t have much money left

  Even if I have money to travel there, I definitely won’t

  “Well… It's too far, and I don’t really have much of an acquaintance there, for now I want to get as much experience first, and probably will try myself to become a teacher or professor later” Though all of this is nothing more than bullshit I’ve just created

  “That’s actually a good thing to have, a youngster usually just does whatever they want without a plan or goal, kind of reminding me of my young self” As he closed his eyes, trying to remember his memories

  Then somebody knocks on the door

  “It seems I’ve got another guess” I could hear his voice become much warmer? Gentle?

  “Then I’ll take my leave, thanks for accepting me” As I stand from the chair and bow down slightly

  “It's fine, I’m looking forward to seeing you. I wonder what kind of future awaits you”

  I feel… somehow the intent behind his word isn’t that, but something else…

  When I head toward the door

  “Oh, right, you’re going to work tomorrow, I’ll tell Millenia later”

  I mean… It's pretty much obvious, no? Unless I look like some incompetent person

  Before opening the door, I turn and bow slightly to him, and leave the office

  A maid was waiting outside, but there was a little girl who looked pretty similar to Mr. Noah. His daughter, perhaps?

  When I walked passed the maid, I could feel her gaze, and somehow, the little girl gave a familiar feeling…?

  Neither Kaleth nor Aronn had a single memory of someone like her? It's not like both of them have a daughter…

  Let’s just not jump into a weird conclusion, either she reminds me of something, or my brain just does whatever it wants to

  Since it's still pretty much early, rather than just going back to doing nothing, I probably should read some history materials first in the library, just in case

  After a few minutes of walking, I finally arrived at the library and walked inside it. It's empty as I expected, given it's still lesson time

  Better for me, since I could enjoy my time leisurely without feeling left out, I mean, it's normal getting stared at since I’m not a student or even a teacher, and doing whatever I want in the library…

  Whatever, let's just pick a history book and start my day, I guess…

  Though I wonder in which part of history I should start first, given history isn’t the best subject in Kaleth and Aronn's memories…

  While picking something blindly will make me much more lost…
