Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 276: Class

“I saw it. It was really a giant, a giant made of stone. It was covered in blue flames…”

“It was too powerful. The giant bear was easily kicked away by it…”

“Wizard, it must be a Wizard. It was a Wizard who saved us…”

The news of the stone man saving Eric and Lily from the Copper-Skinned Giant Bear quickly spread. The rumor of the Wizard, which had only been quiet for a few days, once again became a hot topic of discussion.

As a result, more and more people went to the forest in the suburbs, hoping to see the Wizard and get their blessings.

Nobles and Knights who might have contact with Wizards were, after all, a minority. For most people in this era, Wizards were legendary existences. In the eyes of these ordinary humans… They were powerful existences no different from gods.

To them, finding a Wizard was like finding a god.

This was the most basic form of worship in this era…

…

A few days later, at Heath’s Lighthouse.

At the lighthouse’s entrance, Heath was welcoming the Anlun and Nona who had sent Lily to class.

After the incident in the forest in the suburbs, Lily had rested at home. Although she was not injured at the time, she was still quite frightened and had adjusted her state of mind at home for a few days.

Heath asked, “Don’t you plan to rest for another two days? These two days of classes are not that important. There’s no need to return to class so soon.”

The Anluns could not help but look hesitant.

But before they could speak, Lily shook her head and said, “No need, Teacher. I’m already very well.”

Heath bent down and rubbed Lily’s pink little face. He teased, “Little girl, you’re really brave. You’re usually so obedient. I didn’t expect you to either not make a move or make big news the moment you make a move.”

Lily blushed slightly. “I know I’m wrong…”

Heath observed and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Lily’s mental state. He nodded and said to the Anlun couple, “Leave her to me. I think she can come to class.”

The frown on Anlun’s face relaxed. “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Heath…”

The couple left quickly.

Heath then led Lily back to the classroom to prepare for today’s lesson.

Seeing Lily enter, the children in the classroom were obviously a little excited. They ignored the classroom discipline and started to ask Lily all sorts of questions.

“Wow, Lily, it’s Lily. Lily is back!”

“Lily, is it true? It’s rumored that you met a Wizard in the forest. Is that true? Is it a real Wizard?”

“It is said that he recruited a giant to help you chase away the giant bear. Is that true?”

“Quick, tell us about it.”

Heath knocked on the blackboard and raised his eyebrows. “Quiet. It is class time now. Do you all want to be punished?”

A child said, “Please, Teacher, that is a Wizard. Aren’t you interested?”

Heath said, “This is my classroom!”

After that day, Heath was secretly given a nickname by this group of apprentices. It was called ‘Arrogant Heath’.

The reason was that everyone in the world was paying attention to the topic of Wizards and discussing everything about Wizards, but he did not show any interest in it at all. He even had a very casual tone when he mentioned the attitude of Wizards. It was as if he did not take the Wizards seriously at all.

‘Is Teacher cursed by the Wizards? He offended the Wizards like this…’

Some of the apprentices were even worried about Heath.

Back to the classroom.

Under the strict requirements of Heath, everyone could only calm down. The classroom quickly returned to its previous discipline, and Heath began to lecture.

“Lily, get up and answer. What is the name of the area east of the Gold Coast?” Heath said to Lily, who was sitting below the classroom.

Lily, who was sitting by the window, seemed not to have heard Heath’s name call. She held her chin absentmindedly and tilted her forehead toward the window.

Heath’s voice became louder. “Lily!”

“Ah!”

Lily finally came back to her senses and quickly stood up. “Teacher.”

Heath put down his book and looked out of the window in the direction where Lily had been staring at. He asked in puzzlement, “Is there anything strange over there?”

Lily shook her head and said, “No, nothing.”

Heath frowned. “What happened? You have always been the most obedient child in my class, but now you are constantly absent-minded?”

From the beginning of the class, Heath noticed that Lily was not in a good mood, and she kept looking out of the window from time to time.

Lily blushed slightly. “I’m… sorry, Teacher…”

Heath was about to continue his lecture, but at that moment, there was a loud knock on the door.

Knock, Knock, Knock!

The window on the side was open, just facing the door.

A dirty little boy was standing outside the fence. It was Eric, the one who had come to cause trouble in Heath’s classroom.

“It’s Eric!”

“Oh my god, what is he doing here again?”

“Hasn’t he had enough?”

“It’s better not to provoke him. I heard that he has been getting involved with the group of people with Red Scarves recently…”

The silence in the classroom was broken again, and the children began to discuss.

Heath glanced at Lily, only to see that she was calm, and there seemed to be some joy on her face.

He could not help but ask, “So that’s the reason why you’re absent-minded?”

Lily stuck out her tongue playfully. “Teacher, didn’t you ask me to bring him to class last time? I was just following your instructions.”

“You’re the smart one.”

Heath walked out, and the children followed him.

When they arrived at the door, Eric was standing there with a disdainful look on his face, looking like a hooligan.

Before Heath could speak, the children next to him questioned him with hostility.

“Eric! What are you doing here!”

Eric said, “Isn’t there a free class here? Why? Can’t I come?”

A burly boy immediately stood up and said fiercely, “Hooligans like you are not welcome here. Get as far away from me as possible before I lose my temper!”

This was Alba, the strongest student among Heath’s students. His father was also a helper who worked hard at the dock.

Alba, who was born at the bottom, was very concerned about this hard-won opportunity to learn knowledge. Therefore, he respected Heath, the teacher who taught them for free.

The last time Eric came to the classroom to throw stones, he was not in class because he had something to do. When he found out about this, he was very angry. He heard that he had gone to look for Eric in private, but he could not find him.

Eric snorted. “Hmph, Alba, you good-for-nothing, do you want to fight?”

Alba was furious. He rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward. “You d*mn hooligan, you really lack a lesson!”

Lily, who was beside him, quickly stopped him. “Alba, what are you doing? I called Eric here.”

Alba was stunned. He was very puzzled. “Why did you call him here?”

The other children also had looks of disbelief on their faces.

Although everyone knew that Eric was also in the outer forest when Lily had her accident not long ago, they did not know that Eric had saved Lily. They only knew that Eric saw a giant summoned by a Wizard. After all, how could a child be of any use to a giant creature like the Copper-Skinned Giant Bear?

Lily said, “Because… Because…”

Because after a long time, she still could not give a reason. It was not a glorious thing to let a little rascal save her.

Eric’s face stiffened.

“Okay!” At this moment, Heath walked out.

He looked at Eric outside. “Your name is Eric, right?”

Eric still wanted to show off his personality, but for some reason, after hearing Heath’s voice, a feeling of not daring to resist arose in the depths of his heart.

After trying for a long time, he could only say, “Yes… so what?”

Heath continued to ask, “Are you here to learn?”

Eric snorted. “Can’t I?”

Heath said, “In that case, come in with me.”

Eric was stunned.

In fact, after seeing Lily’s hesitation, he was already prepared to leave. But for some reason, after hearing Heath’s words, he became interested in this place again.

It was as if there was a voice in his ear continuously ordering him to go in.

After a moment’s hesitation, Eric pushed the door open and walked into the yard.
