After giving the document to Siri, I asked her for a copy as a backup if I needed it and left the place towards the restaurant since it was almost time to eat.
Since I have become the academy trainer, they gave me a pin that allows me to enter through the main door without the alarm going off, but I gave it to Kawaii because I don't want to go around showing it off; it looks better on her.
Another benefit is that I can now check out the books from the library, but only for a limited time. I can also move into the dorms for the teachers, but I don't want to do that as I already have a place to stay.
Having said all this, I go out the main entrance and go left towards the guard room to greet Bob and tell him the news.
*knock* *knock*
* Just a moment ...... ready for me to come in.
* Hi Bob, how's it going.
* Bob: Marco, did you come to brag to me that you are now the academy coach?
* It- More like complaining.
* Bob: Huh? Didn't you want that job?
* To be honest, I only did it because I wanted to get back at that older man with the testicle face.
* Bob: Hahahaha, and what's that guy's name.
* I think his name was Arabi.
* Bob: Master Arabi? Tell me the details!
I began to relate the facts to Bob without leaving anything out since there was nothing to hide as he listened attentively. After I finish telling him what happened, Bob remains silent for a few seconds and begins to speak.
* Bob: That's strange.
* What's strange?
* Bob: Master Arabi's behavior wasn't like when we met him.
* When did you meet him? How many years has he been working here?
* Bob: I have no idea. I met him five years ago. Back then, he was very polite to other people and hardly ever used his authority except to ask for books or teaching tools.
* Did anything happen in the course of those five years, anything important or perhaps an event?
* Bob: Well, about four years ago, he went to the capital city for an internship and came back two years ago, but that's about it.
* Maybe his stay in the capital city changed him. People are known to change depending on the environment where they live.
* Bob: Do you think that internship in the capital city changed him?
* Most likely, if a person's mind is weak, it can change under the social pressure of the people around him.
* Bob: Can people be that cruel?
* I'm afraid so. Even good people have a dark side.
After that talk with Bob, I helped him with some documents and left to go to eat at the restaurant.
On the way, nothing interesting happened, not even in the restaurant; something different happened. I also tried to listen to the diners' conversations. Still, there was nothing to highlight, so I ordered the food and nothing else.
...
After finishing lunch, I go back to the academy to read other books, besides looking for information about "Seal Monster" and "Possession" skills.
When I get to the academy, I start heading to the library, but right at the first building entrance, I meet one of Indis' friends.
* Coach!
* Yes?
* I have a question.
* What kind of question?
* With my ability.
* Okay, come with me to the library, we'll discuss it there.
* I got it!
We move towards the library in silence to avoid disturbing the surrounding students. Once we reach our destination, we start talking quietly.
* Move aside the table on the left near the window, I'm going to pick up some books, and in 2 minutes I'll be there.
*
That said, I started looking for the books I needed and also some other books that looked interesting.
After 2 minutes of searching, I find a huge pile of books, and I sit down at the table where Indis' friend is.
* There, now tell me your question.
* Do I have to read all that?
* No, that suffering is for me.
* Eh? Em, okay, my doubt is about my ability. It's called "Acceleration," and what it does is that for 2 minutes, it increases the attack speed of my weapon.
* And what are you looking for?
* I want to change it!
* Why do you want to change it?
* All it does is increase the attack speed, which could easily achieve with some practice.
* I see... I remember that you want to be some magical archer.
* That's right.
* Mmm, answer me something, your skill "Acceleration" can evolve.
* Yes, it can.
* Then I recommend you don't.
* Why? I don't see any use for it.
* First, tell me what your skill says, don't omit anything.
* Okay, it says: Increase speed for 2 minutes.
* Why do you say it increases the attack speed of your weapon?
* ¿? It's not supposed to do that.
* It's not as simple as you think. It says it increases speed, but it doesn't specify that it only does it to weapons. To test this hypothesis, I need a notebook and a pen. Do you have one you don't need?
* Yes, here you go.
* First, we'll use this pen. Note the speed at which I can move it now.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
I started moving the pen from left to right, the speed was very normal, and there was nothing special about it.
* As you can notice, the movement is normal. Now I want you to use your skill and place it on this pen.
* What?
* Can't you do it?
* I don't know. I've never tried.
* Well, now you will try to use your skill on this pen.
* Okay, that's good.
Indis' friend infuses the "Acceleration" ability into the pen. It starts to glow for a few seconds until its glow disappears.
When I grab the pen, a system message appears.
[Speedy pen]
[Description: A blue-colored pen that has been infused with the magical temporary Acceleration, don't go stabbing someone with it].
* As you see, now the pen has the acceleration magic. Now I want you to observe what happens when I use the pen on the notebook.
As soon as I move the pen in the notebook, it manages to tear off several pages without the least possible effort, and I stop to avoid damaging the library table.
* Now, you see that this ability is not as simple as you think. Depending on how you use it, it could be a powerful weapon. For example, you can make your arrows faster, or maybe you can enchant some gloves and make your hands much faster than they are. The possibilities are many.
* ... How did you come up with this idea?
* Remembering that the bag I have is imbued with magic that prevents it from moving around, I thought I could also use your ability in the same way.
* I didn't think I could use it that way?
* That's why it's important to read the skill description well. I recommend you to experiment more with that skill of yours, as it has the potential to evolve means there are some things you haven't discovered yet.
* Thank you, coach.
* You are welcome.
* ...
* What's going on?
* ...Lindsy
* What?
* My name is Lindsy.
* Ah, well, nice to meet you, Lindsy. Now, if you don't mind, I need these books.
* Lindsy: No problem, and thanks again for the help.
* You're welcome.
Lindsy walks away from the library, and I concentrate on the books I have on me. This could take a long time, so make the most of the time.
...
I spent the rest of the day reading the rest of the books that I missed practically. I have already read almost all the books of this place, except the books on active skills that are missing, but that can be left aside since I have no interest in learning another attack skill.
I begin to place the books I took in their respective places, except for one book, which is the information on the two special skills I want to learn since I will take it to my apartment to study it more carefully.
After completing the corresponding paperwork, they authorize me to take the book with me, but not before emphasizing again the consequences of not bringing back this book.
Tomorrow the weekend begins, so I will use that time to learn the skills and, if possible, put them into practice.
As I'm daydreaming about what I'll do tomorrow, a hand grabs me from the man, so I turn around to see who it is.
* Indis: School's barely over, and you're already leaving?
* When it's the weekend I don't know anyone.
* Indis: Not even me?
* Especially you.
* Indis: That's cruel.
* How would you like to be called to work on your day off?
* Indis: Okay, you have a good point, we're going to eat at the central square, do you want to come.
* Sure, at the end of the day, I was heading to eat at that place.
* Indis: Great, let's go.
With that said, I follow Indis out the door and join his group to eat at the central plaza.
On the way, I join their conversation about what we should eat today. I win Chinese food, so that we will go for Zhejiang-style sweet and sour pork.
...
Once at the Chinese food restaurant, we are seated at a table and start ordering the food. While waiting for the food to arrive, we talked about various things.
* Indis: Marco.
* Yes?
* Indis: Why did you decide to become our trainer?
When Indis asked that, the rest of the girls looked at me with curiosity.
* Well, the question was the following...
I started telling them why I became their trainer without leaving anything out. After all, they can find out the reason if they ask Siri, so there is nothing wrong with me telling it.
* And that's the reason.
* Indis: For revenge?
*
* Girls: ...
* What? I'm a little immature and don't know their names, but I think I'm doing a good job as a coach.
* Lindsy: You don't know their names?
* Not really, I only know yours and Indis'.
* Tara: Well, I'm Tara, this is Lety, Fiona and Asuka.
* Nice to meet you.
* Fiona: Coach Marco...
* Tell me, Mr. Marco.
* Fiona: Got it, Mr. Marco. What are you doing this weekend?
* Fiona: Well, I'm going monster hunting.
* Lety: Where?
* No idea. I'll ask the guard at the entrance to tell me the best places to hunt.
* Asuka: Just that?
* Yes, I need to hunt some monsters to get some money and have a sword made.
* Lety: And how much does that sword cost?
* 500 gold coins.
* Asuka: How expensive!
* That's what I said, but that's how it is.
* Tara: And can't you make it somewhere else?
* The place was recommended to me by Alvar, who works in the Merchants' Guild, so I want to trust his opinion.
While we are talking, our order of sweet and sour pork arrives. In my life on earth, I never had the chance to try this, so now I'm going to get my fill.
...
After eating and chatting for about 10 minutes, I say goodbye to Indis' friends and go to my apartment.
When I get to the apartment, I take a bath and go to bed because tomorrow I have to learn the skills of "Seal Monster" and "Possession."
* Well, time to sleep. Good night, Kawaii.
* Ki! ╯ω╰
