The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 370: Respective heirs
"By the way, Thrall."
Clarence sat in front of the experimental table, polishing his long nails carefully, and said casually: "You know, your little boy outside has come to Noah."
"Noah? Do you mean the royal capital?"
Salvatore was at another table and raised his head in surprise: "I know about this... but how did you know?"
"Weird, I know?"
Clarence smiled: "I am from the School of Soul Seizing."
He smiled, stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand, pointed at his own eyes, and then pointed at Salvatore's eyes.
"——What you know, I also know."
"Did you see it from Longjing Tea?"
Salvatore reacted immediately and chuckled.
Clarence shrugged: "Yeah.
"Although I have warned him not to think nonsense in front of the soul-stealing wizard, he thinks more. Even more detailed than before I told him..."
"This definitely requires special training."
Salvatore smiled helplessly: "You are trying to scare children."
"Children should be scared."
Clarence pushed up his glasses and put forward the opposite point of view with a straight face: "It is better to be frightened by me than to have your brain searched out by other soul-stealing wizards after you go out."
"I don't think so."
Salvatore scratched his fluffy hair, with a troubled expression on his lazy face: "If you keep scaring them like this, they may not dare to approach you.
"If you can't accumulate experience against the soul-stealing wizards, what will you do when they leave the Black Tower?"
"I don't care what they do."
Clarence snorted twice and said angrily: "I don't attend class well, and I don't have the patience to practice how to shield and falsify my thoughts. Even if I am directly replaced by another soul-stealing wizard, Memory and mind are also what they asked for."
"Don't say that..."
“It’s not like our Zedi Black Tower doesn’t have a soul-stealing school. There are so many books about the Transformation School here. If you can’t learn them all, you won’t read them... Your Transformation School has no shortage of tower masters. We have a Soul-Seizing School. There are few smart people in the Soul School who are capable and have self-control. Everyone is either evil-minded, a fool, or a fool with evil intentions... People from other schools do not pay attention to the confrontation with the Soul-stealing School. ”
Clarence complained: "But if I change their minds, if I let them feel it, they will think it is level suppression, and anyone can do it; if I let them not feel it, they won't even feel it. I feel that my mind has been changed.
"How do you want me to teach you this?"
"Okay, okay, calm down."
Salvatore helplessly patted Clarence on the shoulder and comforted: "That being said, you have to consider their ability to accept it, right?
"If they do not master this ability in the end, then all this will be in vain. As a tutor, in addition to his own knowledge and abilities, 'teaching methods that are more acceptable and learnable by students' are also his teaching abilities. One kind."
"To put it lightly..."
Clarence muttered something and flicked his newly polished nails.
As the crisp sound of bones clashing sounded, the white jade-colored nails made of horseman finger bones drew a pure white shimmer in the air.
In Clarence's own eyes, small, pure black cracks were produced in the air where his nails were grazing.
The centaurs are a race that can directly see the future with their naked eyes and pluck the strings of fate with their hands... This is their innate extraordinary ability.
But precisely because of this, the horse people have developed a timid and indifferent character.
You can see the destined result from the beginning - and you can see every time you change the future, you can see again which direction the future will lead again. This eliminates the need for them to have "fortitude to face fate."
Because everything is just "something that hasn't happened yet."
Once they get used to "what they see will inevitably happen", it will be difficult for them to have the courage to fight the future.
Lost the great joy that comes from staying the course.
Lost the tenacity forged from unknown suffering.
I lost the "short-lived, meaningless happiness" I gained along the way because of the unknown...
For horse people, the small surprises and joys obtained in the future are "meaningless" compared with the goals at the end. But if everything is to pursue the "ultimate meaning", then everything will become meaningless.
At the same time, when the entire race has future vision, individual future vision cannot produce greater advantages within the race. Or even the opposite...the centaurs' eyes can be used to assist in rituals of peering into the future; and the centaurs' finger bones can be used to make props that change destiny.
——In a sense, the cowardly and indifferent character of the horse people is entirely caused by their talent.
"...just like the horse people. People without power will gain nothing by peering into the future."
Clarence said in a low tone: "For these students who have no talent and no awareness, my suggestion is not to let them graduate."
When he said this, he glanced at Salvatore with a half-smile: "Speaking of which, Sal. You have advanced to silver now... Although you are an alchemist, it is time to lead students.
"When you start taking care of students, you should understand how I feel."
"No way."
Salvatore said confidently: "I have thought about this day for a long time... I am actually quite looking forward to it. In fact, when Teacher Benjamin taught me, I thought about what it would be like to lead students in the future. .
"Although it's not polite to say this...but Teacher Benjamin really doesn't care about us.
"I thought at that time that if I became a teacher in the future, I would definitely not be like him. I would patiently answer students' questions - in addition to teaching them spells, I would also teach them how to behave."
Salvatore looked at Clarence and replied seriously: "Seriously, Senior Clarence. They are just fourteen or fifteen-year-old kids. I think they 'how to think' and 'how to live' ', 'How to learn', we should also teach them."
"Fourteen or fifteen is not young anymore. And Master Benjamin was..."
Clarence hesitated to speak.
Master Benjamin’s mental state at that time was obviously not right. If he could not kill you at that time, it means you are already very good...
However, Salvatore will definitely not understand these words.
He shook his head and changed the subject: "Okay, Sal. How are you doing over there in Valtore?"
"What else can I do? Life in the Black Tower is so orderly, how could I let her out."
Salvatore was obviously in a good mood: "It would be great if life could be so step-by-step."
"In this case, I suggest you go and see the new batch of students first. When I went to find Longjing tea before, I saw a man who could be made. I saw traces of breaking free from fate in him... …Not only is he a genius in terms of talent, but he also has the corresponding will and perseverance.”
Clarence suddenly thought of something~IndoMTL.com~ and mentioned to Salvatore: "It's the youngest child...the one who is ten years old."
"...can it make you feel like a genius? Why, isn't he suitable for the Soul-Seizing School?"
Salvatore looked at his friend, the senior he respected, with some surprise.
Clarence has been looking for his heir.
Longjing Cha is a student he likes very much.
It's just a pity...he didn't choose the soul-stealing school. Moreover, Longjing tea is indeed more compatible with the Imperial Order School.
The evaluation is so high, but he still gives it to himself... This can only show that this is a genius of the Transformation School.
Salvatore suddenly became interested: "Then what is his name?"
"His name is von Hohenheim."
Clarence replied.
