"So, today"s cla.s.s is over. Everyone, be careful and go home."
When I announced the end of the cla.s.s, the children responded all at once.
"" Thank you, Mr. Kaito today! Goodbye! "
"Yes, goodbye. See you Tomorrow."
It"s been around 5 months ever since we opened the school.
The beastmen children were really good students.
They can now read and write, and have learned to do addition and subtraction, and I am currently teaching multiplication.
Now that they can read letters, they have begun to read stories and write down their impressions for emotional and ethical education.
After a little more, I"d like to have a little open debate.
they should learn from a young age how to communicate your claim correctly.
After all, children are the very future of this city.
Sometimes a brute force approach is needed to develop a city.
But that doesn"t mean that you can"t just decide on a part of it without making any sense.
You should respect the opinions of each individual and try to convince everyone of the path you think is right.
I believe that discussion debate cla.s.ses are indispensable to learn that technique.
Of course, there are children who are not good at speaking, so we will take care that they do not feel pain.
Because those children are not good at interpersonal relationships, they tend to show great concentration on what they can admire, so I want to extend that direction.
In order to nurture the various possibilities, I plan to increase the types of content taught, and I will also try to bring in specialized skills.
The plan to invite craftsmen working in the city as temporary lecturers has already been approved at a meeting held through Sena. Everyone was willing.
Textile industry, metal industry, brewing industry, construction industry, etc.
Adults who are actually working are still beginners compared to skilled craftsmen, but have already gained the experience and knowledge to be taught by someone.
Everyone will definitely be a good teacher.
Since it is difficult to convey suddenly with just knowledge, we plan to start with a workplace tour first.
Studying is not something you do on your desk alone.
Learning skills from working artisans is also an important study.
I don"t know what the children will be saying, but it would be well worth it if anyone was interested.
Things to think and do. They are all piled up, but I don"t feel any burden.
Rather, it"s just exciting, considering the children"s future.
I"m really looking forward to what kind of adult and what kind of town I will make.
"Teacher Kaito, thank you for you hard work!"
Nao, the second daughter of the Sena family, came running.
"Right, you as well"
Nao has recently started calling me a teacher even outside of cla.s.s.
Influenced by that, even other children and adults would call me a teacher no matter where, so I was completely used to it.
"What happened to Shiro and Kuro?"
"The little guys went to Grandma to help the field."
When she said Grandma she is talking about Mora, the elder of the camp where the beastmen who lived in the city of Pomdor used to be.
She is an old woman of Ratmen, and an old woman with excellent insight.
However, despite running the city, she lived slowly plowing the fields.
When you think about it this town was created because Shiro and Kuro didn"t want to leave Ms. Mora.
"they truly love Ms Mora."
"Because she"s very kind, I can get baked goods if they help."
"Hahaha, I see."
There are reasons such as this aswell. I smiled.
"But they"ve started to calm down."
Although the twins have the impression of a rampage, they do fall asleep during cla.s.s, but they do not roam, and they are serious about field work and fishing.
Well, they"re Sena"s younger sister, and girls grow up early in terms of their mental age, so they might grow up into a serious and gentle child.
When I said so, Nao laughed feeling troubled.
"They"re older than before, but they"re still wet their beds. Just recently they even wet my bed."
"Oh ... that must"ve been a disaster"
"Truly! It"s two people"s worth! Two people!"
Nao appealed so seriously that I laughed out loud despite feeling sorry.
"It"s something to laugh at! It was so drenched and disgusting!"
"Hahahahahaha, my bad"
I bite my laughter and patted Nao"s head.
"Sorry for laughing. It must"ve been hard on you."
Nao narrowly squinted her eyes and throbbed.
I like part of Felper, because it"s very cat-like.
Sometimes I want to stroke their throat, but I really don"t think an adult man like me should do that.
"I"m about to go. I"m hungry too."
"Are you going to Dino"s restaurant?"
Dino is a young man who likes to cook the lizardmen, and uses his hobbies to open restaurants in the city.
I also secretly gave him recipes I looked up in Toyok.u.mo"s database and served a variety of dishes, so it was a place for everyone to relax.
"Oh, I"m going to Dino. His dishes is delicious."
"Really"
Nao didn"t say anything, and she looked at me steadily.
"... How about you, wanna come together?"
"Is it okay? Please let me come with you!"
Okay or not, such a thing to say for a person who just stared obviously at me to invite you.
"Let"s go now! People are starting to gather because it"s lunch!"
Saying so, Nao grabs my hand and pulls it out.
If Balaina were to see this, wouldn"t she think I am some sort of a lolicon or something? I went to the restaurant while being pulled by Nao, thinking that it would be teased.
"Mr. Kaito, come on! You can take a good rest here!"
The shop owner, Dino, responded with great affection.
The lizardmen is the one with the highest proportion of beasts, and looks like a lizard.
The appearance of wearing an ap.r.o.n and wielding an iron pan with dexterity was a unique sight that I always wanted to see.
I and Nao take a seat, guided by the wife of the lizardman.
There were many other customers, who all greeted me.
So what do we eat today?
"What does Nao want to eat?"
"I want to eat what Teacher Kaito wants to eat!"
"I see."
Hmm, maybe you misunderstand, maybe they are more attached to me then I thought?
… I don"t mind it since it doesn"t have any problem.
For Nao, who wants to eat the same thing, I order french fries and fried fish that seem to be good for children and then apple juice.
Of course, I"m prefer beer over apple juice.
I don"t have anything I have to do until the night so it should be fine having a single cup of alcohol.
When we waited while chatting for a while, a dish came.
Fried potatoes on a plate, then fried fish.
"Bon apet.i.t!" "Bon apet.i.te!"
After we greet the meal, we reach for the plate.
The crunchy french fries and the crisp, crispy fried fish were all delicious enough to laugh.
If you add plenty of mayonnaise sauce, the taste will double.
The fat that acc.u.mulates in the mouth after eating is poured in cold beer.
Then you feel like you are in heaven.
Nao seems to be very satisfied, too, and narrows her eyes and looking satisfied.
At the end of the delicious meal, the number of customers in the store was higher than before.
Inevitably, the number of people who talk to me will increase, so I will be gradually chased through my responses.
A particularly friendly bear, Bern"s uncle, sits at the same table and blocks my exit.
Well, I don"t feel bad when they like me but ...
Recently, I started to work together on the empty islands, so I feel that my relationship with everyone who lives in the city has become more intimate than before.
I decide the rotation at the meeting and carry out the harvesting in a friendly way, but I am always accompanied by as a harvesting leader.
By the way, all things that are troubling to be seen by beastmen on Sky islands are sealed.
If I leave it as it is, they may still know what I want to keep secrets of. I definitely want to avoid that.
However, looking at everyone"s happy smile, I feel like I can tell the truth from the Age of G.o.ds.
If I were to tell early, would it be two or three years later?
After all, it will take at least that much time.
Anyway, everyone seems really happy.
Eleven months after the town was built. It is almost the first anniversary, but without major problems, the city continues to evolve and everyone"s life is improving.
This may be the time to do "that" ...
At night, it"s time to teach adults to study.
Most of the adults seem to be lacking compared to the hard working children in terms of learning.
Adults who are still young are eager to learn but when they include uncles and aunties, they fail to keep their concentration and perhaps they don"t feel the necessity as they have a lax att.i.tude towards learning.
I often have to call attention on adults who were starting to fall asleep or talking to each other.
It may be better for them to master only reading and writing and simple calculations, and then round up quickly.
The learning opportunities for motivated people will be offered in new ways.
On the way home from the night school, which ended up as usual, I made a new proposal to Sena, the leader of the city I was walking with.
"Is this a" festival "to celebrate the city"s first anniversary?"
Yes, a festival. It is also a commemorative festival to celebrate the city"s first anniversary.
The city was starting to get on track, and we thought that opening big events here would increase the motivation and sense of belonging to the city.
"I"d like to open it up if possible. What about?"
"Umm ... I think it"s a good project ..."
"but?"
"Oh, after all, we"re just getting by through the help help from Mr. Kaito, are we even allowed to start a festival?"
I smiled at Sena, who tilted her head with a strange face.
"True, we are able to make do thanks to my help."
But I keeps face-to-face as I continued.
"It"s the power of everyone, not me, who is actually going around the city. Everyone is working hard and actively trying to do what they can. This is a great thing. It"s not bad to hold a festival to commemorate it.
"Is that so?"
"That"s what it"s like. Everyone is doing their best ... but I"ve been honestly getting a little angry at their lack of care towards my teaching though."
As I frowned, Sena laughed loudly.
"Okay, so let"s make a great festival!"
I laugh and nod at Senna who was holding both her fists and showing a motivated pose.
In my head, ideas for the memorial festival were shining like stars.
Surely, Sena will be the same.
As I walked down the cobblestone streets illuminated by the street lights, I and Sena shared ideas for the festival.
