Chapter 1297 - Field Trip!
~Chahhhh!~
The train stopped, and the doors opened, allowing Clovis to dash and leap out of the train as though he were in an action movie.
Bam!
He landed on his feet and slowly stood up with a heroic expression, looking left and right ever so slightly.

Nevis was too speechless to comment on his ridiculous friend.
Just looking at the gang of people giggling and feeling amused by it all made him too helpless.
Sigh... Forget it.
Why was he acting as though he didn"t know how this b.a.s.t.a.r.d typically behaved?
In cla.s.s, the 12-year-old Nevis had already become the jokester of the cla.s.s.
He always provided comedic relief and had already become friends with everyone in a single day.
Make no mistake. Even though Nevis and Clovis were both 12, at that age, they were expected to have the maturity of a 27-year-old back on earth.
At the age of 6~7, men fought and were trained to be warriors or people who performed other manly jobs.
At 7, some immediately apprenticed in their family businesses, became farmers, began trades and performed other acts.
So from that young age to their coming of age at 14 or 15, do you know how many years of practice, resilience and heartaches would"ve come their way?
Before they officially became grown-ups at 14~15, they would"ve tasted defeat countless times, as well as many victories too.
So at 12, people expected one to be very mature.
However, after coming to Baymard, he realized that even though the Baymardians and many of those in Pyno at their age were mature, there was still a youthful and childlike air around them that was manifested from staying in Baymard... Especially whenever they were on school grounds.
.
People who came to Baymard to study typically felt a little freer than usual.
Maybe it was because the Baymardian schools had various club activities and other things that brought out the inner child in them.
In this world, schools typically believed in hash and hardness.
And in very brutal and fierce places, students could get whipped, tortured or killed by failing to get to the top.
The requirements in most schools in this world had nothing to do with bonding or learning in a "healthy" environment.
In this world, the strong rule and the weak fall.
But in Baymard, their main message was unity, irrespective of whether one was strong or weak.
Again, the things they were taught to focus on here were vastly different from what many in the world were instructed to focus on.
Look! The Baymardians had outside club activities that differed from everyday reading courses... Like the P.E/sports time, Drama club, Arts & Craft Club and so on.
Additionally, they also made them do something called "group work" when doing written a.s.signments.
Sigh... Maybe the influence of all this had made many lower their guard down, knowing that no one would torture or beat them up for releasing their inner child.
After all, no matter how mature they acted, they were only children and not the 26 or 30-year-old people they thought they were mentally.
.
Like lightning, the duo dashed through the busy streets, making their way to the school grounds 12 minutes away from the train stop.
Clovis ran with all his might while loudly wailing pitifully: "Why? Why did we miss the school bus this morning? What should we do if we"re late for the trip? You! You!... Nevis, it"s all your fault! Why didn"t you wake me up earlier?"
Nevis was helpless: "Bro... Not only did I attempt to wake you up 4 times prior, but I also sprinkled water in your face, but you still wouldn"t budge."
"Sprinkle water? F***! What will that do to me? You should"ve poured an entire bucket on my face. So in the end, this is all your fault... ~Wooooo~~."

Nevis rolled his eyes heavenwards, knowing that Clovis was only joking and secretly self-blaming himself for oversleeping instead.
And like so, the duo made it to the school grounds just when the Field Trip buses were currently marked at the front, with several students standing before them, entering the bus after a few teachers began roll-call.
Clovis used his nonexistent, super speed to hasten his short legs up. "Here! Here! Your favourite pupila, Clovis, is here!"
Pupila?
~Pfff...
Many giggled after spotting the cla.s.s clown jumping and waving excitedly.
His Pyron still needed work. But for sure, he had greatly improved within these 3~4 weeks alone.
Well, with everyone only speaking Pyron to him, he was corrected severally on what sentences he was saying wrong.
.
Again, because of him and a few others, many in cla.s.s didn"t use large or come margins when talking to them.
Just simple sentences and words would go a long way in building and firming up one"s foundation.
It was also thanks to the fact that these Zalipnians had studied Pyron prior to arriving at Baymard, that they could easily pick up on a few things here and there.
Clovis meant to say, pupil. But for some reason, no matter how many times they corrected him, he would revert to calling it pupila.
"Here! Here! Teachers!... Your favourite pupila is here!"
The teachers felt their lips twitch after seeing the troublemaker make his grand entrance.
Already, they had a ma.s.sive headache from it all.
At the same time, one of their most well-behaved pupils, Nevis, was best friends with the troublemaker, which only brought out a stark contrast between them.
Nevis could be a cla.s.s monitor, while Clovis would be the one causing trouble instead.
That is, how could 2 opposite people stay together for this long?
Sigh... The world was indeed full of mysteries.
"Come on, teacher! Enter now! We"re going to be late if you keep standing there!"
(> -_-)
The teachers on the same boss with Clovis truly wanted nothing more than to strangle him lifeless.
They had never seen such an annoying person like this before
He looked at the clueless Clovis and could only say a little prayer for the teachers in his head.
Honestly, if not for the fact that he and Clovis had known each other since they were 4, dealing with such a person could give one a heart attack.
Bam!
The doors closed up. And just like that, they were off.
Woohoo!~
Field Trip here they come!
