Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 129 The Fall (1)

The two students that were fighting had almost no experience with the spear, and also fighting itself. They had no stance, no technique or power behind their strikes, and even their bodies weren’t trained enough for melee combat.

It was a complete disaster, and Arthur wondered if the school actually taught something to their students. Wasn’t this place supposed to be one of the best schools inside the Shukar Empire? When compared to any other school Arthur had seen, this one was lacking.

From all the fights Arthur saw, only 3 individuals seemed to know at least the basics, and Arthur was almost sure they learned it outside the school.

“The last teacher of yours was basically shit. Only three people in here know at least the basics which are concerning.”

“All of you will have to work hard, and show some improvements, or else…” Arthur said, gazing at all the students.

That fearless gaze of his made all of them tremble with fear, and they set the goal of working hard in their minds, or else they would get low grades, which meant death.

The class comprised the sparring, and when they had finished doing that, it was already over.

All the students left and went to their next class, and so did Arthur. He taught more 3 different classes during the afternoon, and all of them did the same. Spar to see their current level.

Just like the first class, almost all the students were utterly shit, and Arthur would rip their skins off with training._.

After he was done with them, Arthur made a quick stop in the library.

“Hello, Akhur. How can I help you?”

“I’m want to know more about the books here. Can I borrow anything?”

“Yes, as a teacher, you have free access to the library, although there are a few restrictive areas that even teachers can’t access. You can borrow any book, but just like the students, you can’t leave the school with the books.” The librarian said.

Arthur hoped that maybe as a teacher he could leave and read inside his mansion, but even he couldn’t do that. He would have to wake up early and read in the morning, as he only had classes in the afternoon for now.

“All right, thank you.”

He wouldn’t take a book as of now, but still looked around to see if the library had something interesting, and it did.

Most of the books were about the tattoo magic, and about weapons. There were a few books about enchanting, as well as magical smoothen. The Shukar Empire was the home of the most incredible blacksmiths in history.

“Are you also interested in smithing?” A youth said.

It was a student that was also looking at some books, and he saw Arthur doing the same, and started a conversation.

“It is interesting, but I don’t have that much time to be spent studying it.”

“I see. Well, I’ll become the greatest blacksmith there is, so you can order a weapon from me in the future.”

“Ha, I’ll be counting on you then.”

Arthur liked that youth. He wasn’t arrogant and also had a goal and a dream. Most of the students were only there to live up to their parents’ expectations, and not because they wanted to.

“You are the new teacher, right? I think I have a class with you tomorrow. I’m Bill.”

“Bill?”

“Yes. It is a strange name, I know, but that’s because I’m not from here but from the Dragon Scale Empire.”

“Dragon Scale Empire?”

That was a place Arthur had never heard of.

“Only a few people know, as it is not on this continent. Travel by ship, and it takes a long, long time.” Bill said.

“Why are you here, then?”

“Well, my Dragon Scale Empire is the place with the most precious resources there are. We have the ores, but our blacksmiths aren’t that good as the ones from here. My father and his father went to study here when they were young, and so did I.”

“I see. I liked the name of your empire.”

“You are also a fan of dragons? Ha ha, you’ll not believe this, but our empire has that name because some legends say the Sky City once appeared there, and that was the home of the dragons!”

Arthur was shocked. A simple encounter with a student turned out to lead to a lot of useful information. He had seen no one that knew any information about the Sky City, only that it was a mythological city.

“Incredible. I’ll surely visit your empire one day.”

“If you go there, look for my family, Higgins. We will gladly give you shelter.”

After that quick conversation, they parted ways. Now Arthur had a clue about the Sky City, but he still needed to find Nefion, and also save his brother from the Dream Realm.

There were a lot of things he needed to do, but first, he had to become even stronger and master this tattoo magic.

Arthur left the school and went to his mansion. He also made a stop to buy something for dinner. When he arrived there, he was afraid that someone had tried to attack his girls, but it seemed they were okay.

Wisa and Jane were training in the mansion’s courtyard. They were getting stronger, especially Wisa, who was having sex with Arthur, and that benefited her.

“Arthur, you’re back. How did it go?”

“The students there are so weak, and have a lot to learn, but despite that, everything went well. In fact, I got some information about the Sky City, the place where the dragons lived.”

“You did?”

They both stopped their training and carefully listened to Arthur as he shared the conversation he had with that student.

“I’m someone that knows a lot of places, but I have never heard of the Dragon Scale Empire. Could he be lying?”

“I don’t think so. His heart beats were stable, but maybe he’s just a goodlier? I’ll try to learn more about it during this month,”

“Also, I brought us dinner!”

Arthur and his girls went inside to eat.

“Our target is inside Sherekan city?”

“Yes. We are not sure if he is the person who killed the king, but it sure looks like it.”

“All right, let’s move. We have a long way to go.”
