The World of Deities

Chapter 77: The Enforcers

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The last self-study class was noisier than usual.

Almost all the students were whispering about Su Ye’s case. It was unusual that a fifth grade noble student intended to expel a second grade student from the Plato Academy.

This had happened before in the Plato Academy. Nevertheless, each of them who was expelled had made a mistake so serious that they became the public enemy of the whole school.

However, even if Su Ye had cheated in the exam, he would not have been expelled from the Academy. Therefore, what was the reason behind the whole episode?

Everyone was speculating.

As school was about to end, a piece of news was transmitted quickly to all the students in the Academy through the magic letters.

Not only had Su Ye cheated in the exam, but he also had stolen the research result of a fifth grade student, Carlos. Then, he put his name on the paper and applied for the Mana Source Badge at the Congress of Magic. The key point in this case was that he was late in his submission. His research paper with the same result was submitted three days later than Carlos. Therefore, it could be said that the evidence was conclusive.

It was like a stone tossed into a still pond.

The classroom was completely in an uproar. A lot of students discussed it openly, completely disregarding the presence of Su Ye.

Hort acted like a madman and kept writing magic letters to his close classmates.

Laker’s face was serious as he kept sending and receiving magic books from time to time.

Jimmy was also busier than usual. Ebert simply started talking about Su Ye with the students in the front row.

Palos did not pay any attention to what was happening. She only focused on reading the magic books.

Rolon kept receiving letters. He only glanced at the letters and rarely replied to them.

Su Ye stared blankly at the magic books in front of him. He did not expect things to turn out like this, and he kept on pondering what had happened.

“Requesting the School Affairs Department to expel me and force me to drop out of school is the ultimate motive. Previously, using my results to slander me was just a beginning. It was a good method to create public opinion to expel me. Carlos must have prepared for a long time for today. I used the Feynman’s Technique to apply for the Mana Source Badge. Since Carlos dared to sue me, he must be using a similar learning method. Then, some of the things seem to be pretty clear now, but only the details…”

Su Ye quickly went over all that happened this month in his mind.

Suddenly, the sound of a series of footsteps came from outside the door.

All the students raised their heads to look at the door.

One teacher after another walked into the classroom, and every single one of them had a particularly serious expression on their faces.

Amongst these teachers, apart from Niedern, the rest all seemed unfamiliar to Su Ye.

The only one who was not particularly unfamiliar was Larence, the person in charge of the Academic Affairs Office, the Saint-level Archmage.

Larence’s appearance was different from the ordinary Greeks. His beard had been cleanly shaved, and among the bearded mages, he seemed a little stand out among the rest.

The reason why he was not considered unfamiliar was because as long as the students saw him, there would definitely be some serious issues happening.

Also, different from the normal occasions, all the teachers wore a badge on their left chests. That was the mage badge issued by the Greek Congress of Magic.

In the dark gold badge on Larence’s chest, a five-masted white ship was seen floating on the sea.

In front of the chests of some mages such as Niedern, there was an oak tree standing in the golden round frame of the badge.

At the center of the other mages’ badges, it was a silver book that was opened.

The lowest rank of the mages was also a silver mage.

The teachers had all entered into the classroom and stopped moving. The classroom was now completely in a state of silence.

What shocked the students the most were the two inconspicuous old men standing behind the teachers.

The two old men were wearing the ordinary golden oak badges, but there was a red circle around the edge of their collars.

This was different from all the other ordinary clothes worn by mages.

There would only be one category of people who would wear such clothes.

The law enforcers of the Congress of Magic had actually entered the classroom.

The students who had heard of the history of the law enforcers were all stiff, as if they were stuck in plasters and could not move.

Niedern seemed to have used all his strength to maintain his amiable appearance. He looked at Su Ye and said slowly, “Su Ye, the teachers of the Academic Affairs Office are inquiring of you about an issue. Now, bring along your magic book and come with us to the Academic Affairs Office.”

Su Ye’s gaze swept past the two enforcers’ scarlet collars. He nodded, stood up, and walked out from the classroom.

The teachers were walking in front, Su Ye was in the middle, and the two enforcers were following at the back.

Perhaps it was a coincidence. At this very moment, the school bell rang, marking that the classes were over.

In this manner, under the gaze of numerous students, Su Ye walked all the way to the Academic Affairs Office.

The architectural style of the Academic Affairs Office was slightly more solemn than the classrooms and the teacher’s office, but it was also a two-story building. The color of the outer wall was also the common gray-white normally found on Athens’ buildings. It covered the rough stone wall very well.

In a state of long silence, the team arrived at the hall of the Academic Affairs Office.

Unlike the exquisite Plato Hall, the interior of this hall was extremely simple. Other than the red curtains and the marble with its own flowering patterns, the hall seemed to be casually built at every corner, and it was smeared with a thick layer of white plaster. However, the cracks in the walls were unevenly plastered up, as if the workers were rushing to study magic.

Between the white pillars on both sides of the hall, brown long tables were connected together to form an inverted “U” shape. Su Ye was standing on the open end of the “U” shaped table, and behind him was the door which had been opened.

The light outside the door was dim and yellow, making Su Ye felt that he was at the edge of a field of ripe wheat in the evening.

All the teachers took their seats in sequence, while the two straight-faced enforcers stood on both sides of the innermost chairman seat.

Archmage Larence coughed lightly and asked, “Su Ye, do you know why you are brought here today?”

“I don’t know.” Su Ye’s tone was very calm.

Some of the teachers looked at Su Ye and frowned slightly.

This was because Su Ye raised his chest and head. His eyes were clear, and his shoulders were stretched to the back. His arms were relaxed naturally. He was incredibly calm, as if he was at his own house. And seemingly, he was paying no respect to the mages that were present.

Niedern said, “Archmage Larence, I think we should get straight to the point.”

Larence nodded, and a sky blue light flashed in his slightly murky eyes. He said, “Open your magic book.”

Su Ye held the magic book with both hands and opened it.

Larence waved his right index finger, and a blue light flew out from the magic book in front of him. It followed a spiral path and flew into Su Ye’s book, leaving behind a trail of stardust.

On the surface of Su Ye’s magic book, the appearance of an unfamiliar young man surfaced.

This young man had dark brown curly hair, a tall and straight nose, and prominent cheekbones. His facial lines were firm, typical of a Greek.

He was wearing a gorgeous white robe. He said in a clear voice, “The respected teachers of the Academic Affairs Office, my name is Carlos, and I am a fifth grade student. Although my results are not among the top three in the class, I have always been in the top ten. As I’m going to graduate, I started to review my past research work and refine many methods. I had also asked my teacher, Gregory, to submit them on my behalf to the Congress of Magic as a new learning theory. Of course, I was just trying my luck. After all, those were my shallow experiences and I didn’t put any hope on it.”

“One of the learning methods was a strange phenomenon I discovered many years ago. I noticed that when I teach others, the learning effect will be better, so I occasionally teach others and name it as the ‘Teaching while Learning’ method. However, today, a strange thing happened. My teacher told me that a student named Su Ye also submitted a learning method. Although it is something called ‘Feynman’s Technique’ and the content is slightly richer than the learning method that I had submitted, it’s essentially the same as my method of ‘Teaching while Learning’.”
