Loud heavy footsteps echoed through the corridor of the school building, they belonged to a fat man dressed in gray and white robes. "I don't like bloodshed." Professor Urad thought, remembering how Imperial soldiers were surrounded and then killed by organized civilians of the kingdom, the whole action had been planned for years by a group of rebels, and finally everything took place two days after the 50th anniversary of the Imperial victory. The professor had no special love for kingdom or empire, all he wanted was to enjoy a peaceful life.
"Professor Urad."
Turning lazily in the direction from which the voice came, the professor feigned surprise by recognizing the face of his assistant. “Do you have all the tests?” asked the professor, not spending his time on unnecessary greetings.
“Yes, by the way, did you read these questions?” Dini asked.
“But of course.” He lied to hide his disinterest. “I know the real purpose of these questions, but I don't care about it at all as much as I do about the questions themselves.”
“And what do you think?” She asked honestly, wanting to know the professor's opinion.
“Isn't it obvious? Propaganda is always about propaganda."
"Ehh?"
Dini looked at the professor as if he had said that fish were birds. Her surprise was painted on her face. "There's no propaganda there." She thought, but not wanting to show the professor that she did not understand him, she quickly agreed with him, which seemed to be what the professor was waiting for.Dini and the professor were heading towards the classroom to prepare it for the students.
“By the way, are the preparations for the magic part finished yet?” He asked.
“Yeah, it didn't take long after all, it's just the basics.” she replied.
This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.
Eisa stared at the remnants of the Imperial soldiers that had been brought back to life by necromancy, currently busy carrying goods from port to market, but Eisa knew that soon they would be sent to the battlefield to support the kingdom's army. It was the main hope of defeating the empire as well as the main reason for Morit's downfall.Eisa didn't understand what was going to happen differently this time, but she hoped there was a bigger plan.
“Hey Eisa!” called Taru, her furry friend who belonged to the animal-human race, he resembled a small white tiger, and the way he moved his tail always put Eisa in a good mood.
“Hey Taru, how are you and your sister?” Taru did not remember his parents, his older sister always took care of him.
"Very good, although traffic in the store has been extremely slow lately, at least we have more time for ourselves." Eisa hugged Taru, loving his soft fur very much.
"We have to go now, don't let them wait for us." Eisa said.
A large classroom whose main decorative motif was light wood and blue curtains on the windows. There was one wooden desk and chair for each student, and on each desk lay copies of a comprehensive exam, each page tinted slightly blue. “A side effect of the Creation processor was it intentional?” Eisa thought. At that moment, a well-known obese man entered the room.
Professor Urad stood proudly in the middle of a full hall, enjoying the students' respect for the position he occupied in this very turbulent society, he hastily explained what was expected of the students and wished them good luck, and sat down at his desk watching the students' efforts and at the same time savoring his dinner.
Eisa had the opportunity to read the uncensored history of the kingdom for the first time in the form of an exam, looking towards Taru she nodded her head to give him courage, and started reading the first question herself.
“Huh…” The first question gave Eisa a sense of familiarity. “How did King Rob II unite the wild mermaid tribes in the fight against the general of the dark waters?” Eisa had never heard of King Rob II, so she wasn't sure about her answer, so she decided to follow her instincts and answered the question the way a similar story in her book happened. "With the help of the tsunami staff..." She replied.
"Alright time for the second question."
But the second question seemed even stranger than the first. By the third, she was looking nervously around the room, looking for anything to distract her from the exam, just to get some peace of mind.
“Are you okay Miss Luner?” Professor Urad asked.
"It's nothing, everything's fine, professor." She said and the professor went back to his lunch.Eisa went back to answering questions, each next one slowly gave her a nervous breakdown, until finally she answered all the questions according to her memories, after answering all 40 questions she was experiencing a medium existential crisis because she knew the answer to each of them. "It is impossible. My whole life in this world was really just a figment of my imagination? But it's real, I'm sure, I would have noticed something so obvious a long time ago if it wasn't.” At that moment, Eisa realized something very important.
50 years ago, the empire conquered Morit, meaning that the loyalists of the dragon queen are trying to liberate all her sealed generals, a month has passed since the creation of Arta, giving her about another month until Dir'haz, one of the queen's more powerful generals, is freed. According to her book, General Dir'haza was to take control of much of the "Sidell" continent in the future. "Don't panic, you're only 10 and no super powers, no one expects you to do anything with it." she kept telling herself.
“Fuck, I have to do something about this.”
"Time is up, leave the written exam and go to the practice room where we will take the exam in the magic part." The professor announced.
