Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife

Chapter 110 Knowledge Will Take Us Far.

?

The days of idleness on the Blue star for all children of school going age were over. Those teenagers in particular that had come along with their parents and received some initial education from proper schools did not even get the chance to experience that idleness because Esong Wu created a rigorous schedule for them.

In the morning they took history, geography, Literacy, mathematics, astronomy, mutated beast anatomy, and science classes, after lunch they had mecha crafting, piloting, physical education, combat, mental strength training and farming.

It was not just the children who had to go to class even the adults on the Blue star were required to take some of these classes for the purpose of general knowledge. Those that had grown up on the Blue star hardly had any practical or theoretical knowledge of anything. Some of the parents had complained that the subjects were to many but Esong has simply said that knowledge would take them far. To make it easier on the children, schedules were given and they were assigned to different classes so that one student could study around four subjects a day. The content of study for primary, middle and different academy levels was different even though some of the subjects were continuous. 

To speed things up, for the duration of their time here Esong, his men and even the Prince Markay all had classes that they taught through the day.

The men all met after the irritating ringing of the bell which Scarlet had insisted on installing claiming that it was the standard school bell. It sounded like the rattling of loud metals at a high pitch which they all hated.

"There goes that darn bell again." Folsom complained. "I hear it even in my sleep you know, why does your wife have to be stubborn about everything?" He glared at Esong.

"You will adjust to it." Esong answered. "None of us is complaining anymore, not even the kids. Look how excited they are."

Ian shook his head vehemently very much in disagreement with Esong's words. "They are excited because they have two hours off. Whose suggestion was it for everyone to gather and watch your wife take part in the virtual mecha fights?"

Esong pointed at Folsom and Folsom pointed at Markay.

"She is the governor and the first citizen of the blue star to take part in the fights. I think it's amazing and it's an event worth the support of everyone. She has been working hard in training although I do not understand her armor or weapons, they are nothing like I have ever seen before." Markay commented.

"Did you also relay this to the emperor?" Esong asked him.

Markay's eyes darted back and forth, not expecting that his spying had been caught on already.

Cedric giggled and said, "You send your father every little product that is produced on the Blue star. Heck your family has been taking away fifty packets of potato chips daily. A drone camera captured a picture of the emperor playing snakes and ladders with the third princess in the house of ministers. They were eating the new chilli potato crisps which are not yet available on the online shop or supermarket here." Cedric tsked and shook his head. "You may be able to fool the farmers but you cannot fool us with that charming smile."

"I just relay basic information." Markay said defensively. "I could never harm the Su's, I am Carolyn's future husband."

   Folsom snorted and Markay glared at him. "I overheard you both yesterday buddy." Folsom laughed. "You tried to get her to take a walk with you and she said "I am busy your highness, so please stop bothering me, please please please."

"How many times did she say please?" Ian asked.

"Three, I counted." Folsom said childishly, raised three fingers up and he laughed just as the others were laughing.

Markay was not laughing but he was feeling rather embarrassed that his close friend had been around to witness this scene. Courting Carolyn Su was no easy job because something she was soft and other times hard. She also worked too hard in his opinion, it was as if she was trying to prove something. Perhaps he needed to have a conversation with Esong's wife about this. 

"Think about this way," Ian said. "If he courts and marries her a movie will written, shot and produced basing on their courtship. It will change the meaning of the word please among women."

"Go away please." Folsom said.

"Leave me alone please." Cedric added.

"You are irritating me please." Esong wrapped an arm around Markay's shoulder as they all laughed and joked.

"Shut up, please." Markay was seriously pleading with his friends. They were the irritating ones. "You are one to talk, you have been taking your wife on daily dates every evening Esong."

"You have said it perfectly, wife, my wife...you on the other hand are still on the outside." Esong boasted. 

"No I am not, we shares secrets." Markay blurted. 

Four heads looked in his direction, all of them curious about these secrets. "Secrets!" Esong said cautiously. "Brother I know that some men lose their heads in pleasure houses over women and reveal national secrets but I hope you are not one of them." 

Markay was extremely offended by Esong's words and he looked at him with disbelief in his eyes. He even shrugged Esong's arm away from his shoulder. "Hey, do you take me for a crazy guy? I am the king of the spying game, our secrets are personal things. Like things she likes and things I hate. Or people that have wronged us and forgotten about their wrong doings without apologizing." 

Folsom grunted and said "You want us to believe that someone wronged the prince of death, did not apologize and still lives? No way!" 

"Maybe that person is crippled, is he or she crippled?" Ian asked. 

"They could also be on the Red star, is that it?" Cedric raised an eyebrow curiously. 

Two teenage boys that were laughing and running bumped into Folsom at that moment. Cutting the unwelcome interrogation of Markay short. 

"Sorry teacher Folsom." they apologized and run away. 

"Tsk, they did not even wait for me to respond, these little brats are unruly. By the way, has anyone else noticed that Esong's academy combat class is full of female students?"
