The Inheritor 23 A Bear For A Teacher

All the teachers were either cracking jokes or giving serious instruction about something or introducing about them or discussing different topics to lighten the mood.

Well not exactly all teacher, only one teacher just stood like a statue while enjoying the pleasant scenery. The teacher was more like a demonic bear or a gorilla and students around him were either trembling in fear or frozen from the shock.

Among this group one student wasn't frozen or trembling from fear, there was no fear in his eyes; he was just standing there calmly with slight discontent on his face. It's Quinn, who was waiting for his cla.s.smates.

After every student came the gorilla teacher cleared his throat with a cough, though it was just a cough many of the girls were about to cry and some even had light tears welling up in their eyes.

The teacher's voice was like a foghorn and a bit hoa.r.s.e it was simply punishment for their poor ears.

"Everyone get on the cloud lets go to our cla.s.s-island." The teacher totally ignored the student's expressions and went to the cloud floating near him, once he came near the cloud, a small stair case appeared.

Following their teacher, the kids entered the clouds while enviously glancing at the group next to them, the teacher was handsome gentleman and the students were laughing at the jokes cracked by their teacher.

After everyone entered, the cloud slowly floated and flew towards the lake. Quinn looked around and found they were the first one to leave; other cla.s.ses were discussing something with the students.

Though they were scared the students were still looking forward to their cla.s.s. The cloud slowly flew, they crossed many islands. The islands were all covered by thick white fog. Though the fog looked natural Quinn had feeling that it was man-made as the entire lake was clear.

The Pregrandis Lake was pure and they were only able to see only water, it was like they were in boundless ocean; at the horizon the lake water and the sky met. Looking at the horizon Quinn felt that it was wrongly named it should have been Pregrandis Ocean instead of Pregrandis Lake.

After a while the Flying cloud slowly descended. They entered an island and went through the white fog suddenly the fog thickened and even looking at the person before them was difficult.

It was like entering some haunted island and with such a scary teacher accompanying it was even creepier and the kids who have calmed after viewing the beautiful lake also started to s.h.i.+ver and some girls even cried.

Then the gorilla teacher sighed seeing scared children and took a token. After that the fog receded and a virgin forest appeared before them and the Flying cloud proceeded.

After that they saw a timeworn old building and the flying cloud slowly descended in front of the building. There was no name written or indications on the building.

When Quinn went closer to the building he felt that the building was a living being like an old sleeping tortoise. Though it had many cracks and fissures it still managed to give a sense of comfort when they approached the building.

Then the bear teacher shouted "Fran come and get the kids." He was screaming like a furious wounded bear.

Soon a young man in his late-twenties came out of the old building, he was a scholar with average but pleasing face. His face was beaming with smile and excitement. He was wearing in cyan robe with thin white strips; along with long slivery white hair he was like pure sun that was emitting holy light.

The good mood which was building up was immediately shattered by the gorilla teacher's annoying sound.

"Fran this will the last time I will be going to that troublesome place, its pain in the a.s.s to look after these snotty kids and cry babies."

The teacher turned around and went to the woods. It was like a caged-bear returning to its home after escaping from the prison. Fran shook his head seeing the gorilla entering the forest and then saw the kids who were trembling and s.h.i.+ver seeing the other teacher.

"h.e.l.lo kids welcome to Natal Dawn School and Dusty Zephyr Island. You can call me Teacher Fran; now someone tell me what has teacher Ben explained so far I will continue from there on."

After that Fran waited for someone to answer. But the children are yet to recover from the shock and Quinn didn't want to stand out, so the entire scene was a bit awkward. A young man stood in front of many children waiting for an answer.

After some time, Fran knew no one would voluntarily answer hence he pointed at one kid and asked him again without losing his patients. The kid answered slowly after some hesitation.

"Teacher Fran my name is Gilbert Huston, teacher bear only told us to get on the cloud he didn't explain anything else. But Vice-Princ.i.p.al Albus explained the princ.i.p.al behind banning technological devices."

The kid got courageous seeing the new teacher and spoke after a little consideration to impress the teacher. Little did Gilbert know his courageous attempt was akin the digging his own grave, because Ben was listening to the kids from the forest.

Fran was speechless hearing the student referring Ben as Bear and praising Albus in front of Ben; in fact, Fran even slightly admired his courage. He was even more shocked to find that Ben didn't even tell his name to the students but when he thought about Albus he instantly understood how the entire a.s.sembly played out.

"Gilbert it's not teacher bear, he's Teacher Ben also The Head of Dusty Zephyr Island so be respectful. Okay everyone let's go to the cla.s.s room and continue our discussion."

Fran actually wasn't worried about Gilbert, since he knew Ben very well. Though Ben might act like a boorish idiot, in fact he was pretty friendly and reasonable.

After that he took everyone to their cla.s.sroom inside the nameless old building. The cla.s.sroom was filled with desks and chairs for small children.

"Everyone take a chair the boys on the right and girls on the left." Then Fran went to the stage waited for the kids to settle down.

"All of you must be from different countries and came here to learn about cultivation. Some of you might have even asked to your parents or the other about cultivation. But the person you have asked would have never given you a straight answer am I right?"

When the kids heard this question they all became serious and nodded their head. The small kids were like university students listening to a very important lecture.

"Your parent merely wished to give a happy and carefree childhood. The rest of your life will revolve around cultivation and it will bring tremendous pressure to the people. Those short 5-year period are the only time you could really be naïve and innocent."

"Don't get me wrong, cultivation is not some horrible or a boring thing in fact it is one of the most fascinating things that I have ever known. Generally, people forget to enjoy cultivation and try to force it on themselves and face many severe consequences."
