Chapter 279: Calm Down
The middle-aged man who was kicked away slamd heavily into the wall and fell to the ground. His face was as red as a pig’s liver as he kneeled on the ground and could not get up.
“Any other questions?” A frivolous voice sounded.
Heath asked as if nothing had happened.
The middle-aged man seed to want to say sothing. He tried to move his mouth a few tis and finally opened it. However, there was a ‘wah’ sound and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
His head tilted and he fell to the side. It was obvious that he had passed out.
“He really can’t take a beating!”
With a disappointed look on his face, Heath waved his hands and said to the children beside him, “Go and untie Eric.”
“Ah!”
“Oh!”
Everything happened too suddenly. Whether it was the children who followed Heath or the little beggars in the room, they were all stunned. No one had expected that the seemingly ordinary Heath would be able to put down a brawny hooligan in an instant, and even knock him unconscious.
At this mont, hearing Heath’s words, the children finally recovered from their shock.
“Yes, yes, yes, Teacher!”
They hurried forward, quickly untied the rope on Eric’s body, and put him down from the beam.
At this mont, Eric was covered in blood and his skin was torn. After being rescued, he imdiately trembled and said to Heath, “Teacher… Teacher…”
Heath waved his hand. “Let’s talk when we get back.”
…
The next day, Heath’s Lighthouse, classroom.
Heath was teaching the children as usual.
Knock, knock, knock! There was a knock on the door.
Eric appeared at the door of the classroom.
At this mont, Eric was wearing a clean robe. The wounds on his body had also been treated. Although he still looked very disheveled, he was clearly much better than before.
“Teacher…” Standing at the door of the classroom, Eric spoke with a trembling voice. His voice was a little timid. He lowered his head and did not dare to look into Heath’s eyes.
Heath asked, “How is it? Are you better?”
Eric said, “I’m… much better. Thank you, Teacher, for your herbs.”
After returning yesterday, Heath saw that Eric’s injuries were not light, so he gave him so herbs to treat his injuries. Although these were not magic substances, they were used to have a certain recovery effect.
Heath said, “You’re welco. Alright, since you’re here, co in.”
The class continued until the end.
After class.
Eric ca in front of Heath. He looked very sad. “About what happened before… I’m sorry… Teacher…”
Heath shook his head and smiled. “It’s not your fault. There’s no need to apologize for it.”
Later on, Heath understood the whole story in more detail. The Red Scarves had been eyeing Eric for a long ti. They had asked Eric to be their pickpocket, but Eric didn’t agree. That was why they had hung him up and beaten him up.
As for the reason why he had co to his class, it was only because he didn’t want to go along with them.
Heath said, “It’s already very rare to be able to stand up for yourself in front of the strong.”
Heath’s words ward Eric’s heart. If he had co to the classroom only because he thought it was fun previously, then now he had more respect for Heath.
He looked at Heath curiously and asked, “Teacher… That…”
He stuttered as if he had sothing to say.
Heath said, “What?”
Eric thought for a mont and suddenly asked with bright eyes, “I want to know, Teacher, are you a Knight? You can easily defeat Sam. You must be a Knight, right?”
Heath didn’t answer directly, but said, “I did receive Knight training before.”
He only wanted to live in this city as an ordinary person, and Knights were people of a higher level.
Although he did not receive Heath’s recognition, this answer still made Eric’s eyes light up. Knight training was sothing that only the noble class could co into contact with.
Without thinking, he asked with a dry mouth, “Teacher, then, can you teach ? Can you teach ?”
The common class did not have any concept of etiquette, so Eric did not realize that this was a very rude thing to do.
However, Heath did not care. Instead, he smiled readily. “Sure.”
Heath had originally thought that the gang of hoodlums with red headscarves would retaliate against him, a village teacher. However, such a thing did not happen. After waiting for a few days, no one ca looking for him.
It was probably because the kick was too heavy. One kick could break a few ribs of a person. The other party should have realized that a person like him was definitely not soone to be trifled with. The gang of hooligans with red scarves was just a small gang of hooligans.
This made Heath a little disappointed.
A normal life was always lacking so fun. He had originally hoped that these hooligans would co knocking on his door to find so fun for him to kill so boring ti, but it was a pity…
‘Next ti there’s such an opportunity, should I restrain myself a little and give others a chance?’
Heath even began to think about it.
Perhaps it was because the extension of his lifeline allowed him to have plenty of ti, so he did not have to care about the loss of ti. Heath also began to look forward to such boring things that he would only see as a ‘waste of ti’ in the past.
He was not an exception. Most Wizards were like this.
Training and ditation were very boring. After a long ti, Wizards would feel suppressed and accumulate a large number of negative emotions. Sotis, they would even doubt themselves and doubt the aning of life. They would feel lost in training and lose themselves on the path of Wizards.
There were even many Wizards who went crazy because of this, and even ended up committing suicide…
Therefore, many Wizards would regularly do things that were not related to their training to release their negative emotions, such as going out on treasure hunts, indulging in won, and other sensory substances, and like Heath, they would experience life as an ordinary person.
Through contact and experience of these things, Wizards could rember the aning of life, see the beauty of the world, and be more determined to walk the path of Wizards, towards the truth and eternity.
…
In short, the matter passed just like that. After being taught a lesson by the Red Scarves, Eric asked for help from Heath, and the Red Scarves no longer ca to find trouble with Eric.
The next day, Heath also set up a Knight training course in his own classroom, teaching so basic knight skills, including basic swordsmanship, fighting skills, and so on.
In fact, such a course was not a special secret in the mortal world. There were people teaching it in every town, and many of them were even retired Apprentice Knights.
However, it was impossible to beco a Knight based on this. It was purely to let ordinary people know so fighting skills.
On the other side, Heath was leisurely teaching children as a scholar and teacher in Golden Harbor Town. Ti passed slowly in such a peaceful day.
However, to Heath’s surprise, a few days later, a group of uninvited guests broke his peace…
