It's scorching hot out there. The sun, instead of brightening your day, filling you with warmth and joy, sun and shine, now gives you nothing but sweat and thirst, hot and more hot. It's hot. Much too hot! I feel like pouring ice all over my body just to get rid of the heat.
"This is like a desert" [Nar].
"What is that? Some kind of hot candy?" [Diana]
"That is dessert" [Sas].
"Desert is a place filled with nothing but sand, and it's hot, usually hotter than even this in the morning, but colder at night, sometimes even colder than snow" [Nar]
"Such a place even exists..." [Diana]
Luckily, today is a holiday, so there's no school, otherwise I'd run away and find a place to cool off. I thought about finishing my special homework that Master Merlin gave us. Seriously, since I didn't do my homework properly, she punished me with more homework. Doesn't she know that too much homework makes my hand all sore. My writing, from being like that of an artist, now became something like a worm wriggling around.
Fie, the usually sleepy kitten, became even more drowsy as she slept under a combination of wind and ice magic stone, letting out a cool breeze every now and then. I couldn't thank Nar enough for his brilliant creation. Even Sas was impressed by his idea, as Sas wanted to create something complex at first, but is now working on expanding this creation so that the entire mansion can feel the breeze, something all the maids and butlers are looking forward to.
"Question 10. Name the current king of the elves... Shall I ask Mr. Elegast?" [Diana]
"And this question, name a specialty of the black cat. This question looks like something Kat knows best" [Nar].
"This math question... It's above your level... It practically begged for adult help" [Sas].
Nar and Sas, who are overwhelmed with work, also look at my homework. Even they are overwhelmed by the question, but they actually nod in unison, as if they've received a revelation. I wonder what they're thinking.
"Should I go out and finish my homework? It's hot, but okay!" [Diana]
"Good luck out there" [Nar]
"Stay safe" (These questions were meant to encourage the students to ask around about something beyond their curriculum, I'm sure that's what the witch Merlin intended) [Sas]
Copying the concept behind the device Nar created, I made a cloud of snow just above my head, so I could have a portable cooling system for myself. What a blessing. Come at me with all your might, Mr. Sun! I'm not afraid of you anymore!
First, I wandered around the neighborhood looking for an idea to solve many of my homework assignments. One of the questions simply asked me to draw, describe, and write an essay about a fruit or vegetable that I have never seen before. I can see many unusual fruits, from something shaped like a star to a hairy fruit. I asked the dark elf merchant about it, and he was happy to answer my question. To thank him, I just take a few of them. He doesn't look like he would lie to me, so I pay the price he tells me.
My next destination is the Adventure Guild, since I'm sure I can ask most of them without any reservations. They know me well from my frequent visits there, and I feel completely safe there as well, so I go to the Adventure Guild.
When I arrived at the guild, I asked Alice, the receptionist, a few questions, and she answered them all at once without any difficulty. My eyes look at her like she's some kind of genius, the admiration shines so brightly that she blushes.
"That's the top scorer for you" [Kat].
"I have to admit, the curriculum has changed so much. We never learn most of these things back then" [Alice].
"Then how do you know the answer?" [Diana]
"Through my daily interaction with these adventures" [Alice]
After that I went to several places. The merchant's guild, the famous blacksmith's street filled with dwarves, the knight's headquarters (I was denied entry, but the knight standing in front told me the answer I needed), the local library, the opera house. There are so many places I haven't visited yet, but time is running out as the sun turns orange, signaling me to return home.
The next day
"We are bad students..." [Kara]
"The Royal Library did not provide all the answers..." [Mara]
"I tried to ask others and even went outside, but my bodyguard interfered and so..." [Marianne]
"My father didn't even know the question, luckily my mother who is always socializing knows some of the answer" [Adnan].
"It's easy though" [Tio].
"True, while it's hard for us, many others actually knew the answers" [Neloufa].
"True. You just have to ask around" [Tio].
"I can't believe I'm winning this special homework, even beating Kara and Mara!" [Diana]
"We have no excuses..." [Kara, Mara]
The bell rings, signaling the start of today's lesson. Master Merlin enters the classroom and
"This is my assistant from today onwards, say hello to Ms. Tiara!" [Merlin]
"Huh?" [Diana, Kara, Mara, Neloufa, Adnan, Tio, Marianne]
What exactly happened the other day? Why did Tiara suddenly agree to teach us when she's supposed to be hiding? What did Master Merlin and Aunt Amleth say to her?
