Chapter 421: Special Lecture Petition (1/2)
“Hmmm, that person thinks up really interesting stuff the whole time.”
“Right. He excavated a miraculous lost technique from the library, and now he is proposing a new form of lecture.”
“Don’t know if to call it whimsical or having a wide perspective…”
“Even so, it may be written as views and experience and all those fancy words, but isn’t this just an excursion? Playing around?”
“Who knows… It is the idea of Raidou-sensei and Shiki-kun who have brought results in everything they do, so someone like me can’t really say anything about it. I am too scared to give my evaluation at this stage.”
“Speaking of that, how’s the research for the lily flower spell going?”
“They disclosed the information to a baffling extent, but recreating it is still… I would say only a number of talented ones have managed to.”
“As for Shiki, I heard he has been going to the library often lately, but…what in the world is he researching this time around?”
“I asked the person himself and his students, but I still don’t know. And so…”
“About our standing and what to do, right?”
“Right now Raidou is taking the side of the academy principal. In that case, there’s no reason for us to agree to this special lecture.”
“But a person that can create those people is someone that can bring explosive benefits for the academy. Shouldn’t we also be creating a relationship with the Kuzunoha Company from zero.”
“School trip. If used properly, I personally think that it could become an interesting system.”
“…Hoh?”
“It will serve as bait for the students; advertisement for the other countries.”
“?”
“For example; how about only sending the talented students that are already assured to be graduating in this thing called trip to other countries as representatives of sorts and doing this every now and then as a school event? Leaving aside the lead of a teacher; for the students that have gone through pains and joys together and are facing graduation soon, this will serve as an opportunity to make memories. I would say it is possible to show the people of the location they are travelling to that the students of the academy are outstanding.”
“…I see. There’s a lot of benefits even if only on the surface, huh. We could also impose some tasks on them in order to make adjustments in our way to show how accomplished the academy students are. Decent numbers, paying the cost of the trip… Fumu, this is indeed more interesting than I thought. There’s also the possibility of bringing out tasty interests…”
“Yeah, it can spread the name of the Rotsgard Academy to the world even further in a variety of meanings. We can increase our worth too. There’s complicated problems like the selection of teachers and the responsibility, but it will serve as a good surprise attack and screening for the Limia Academy.”
“The Limia Academy, huh. It would be funny to see them getting all panicked.”
“At the very least, Raidou-sensei hasn’t done anything that has proved harmful for the academy, so how about giving him this one?”
“Right. I can’t help but look forward to the achievements of Jin Roan and his group, and where they will end up. That’s the true form of the students that Rotsgard should be producing.”
“Then, for now, let’s approve of this as a trial phase with Raidou and the others. If it goes well, we can consider the inclusion of this as an established practice in the Rotsgard Academy. Is that okay with everyone?”
““No objections.””
Raidou did something again.
A meeting from a certain teacher clique in the Rotsgard Academy that began with that mood.
They do have their doubts, but it looks like it wrapped up while it was still peaceful.
Special lecture application.
This is for when a teacher is seeking the approval of the Academy in the cases when there’s a lecture style that has no precedence.
Even when looking back on history, no proposals have been submitted for several decades, and it is the first time ever that a temporary teacher has done it.
What was submitted under the name of Raidou was: School Trip.
Having students who have reached a certain threshold travel outside the academy with a teacher guiding them, they will widen their views in that location, and will spur personal growth with important experiences that can only be obtained in that place.
That’s what is written thoroughly in the documents.
By the way, the location that Raidou placed as their travel location is the remote city of Tsige that had accomplished independence recently.
It is a remote city that is stimulating to begin with, and their high reputation lately does give quite the persuasiveness.
It can be seen as increasing the connections of the Academy Town with the world, and there’s a decent amount of people who see the advantages in that area.
For the teachers, this is a matter that would just end with ‘well, I guess it would be interesting’.
They would also go ‘it is fine to just try it and think about it later’.
But…
There’s also the ones that are going ‘what’s this joke?’.
That was…the administration department.
“How’s the confirmation of the documents that came back?!”
“No good. They are all getting avoided!”
“Same here. The contract will be the same as always. Add a few lines that say they will consider an annual automatic renewal!”
“What about the increase in the remuneration? It should have been sent in a format that doesn’t require a response.”
