Chapter 36 Killing will not lead to social progress
Since Valed has made great progress in magic, he has even finished all the secondary education courses in the academy. Then he cannot leave this guy idle next. As Tracy said, various other educations that are beneficial to increase Valed's "taste" and "temperament" have gradually been added to the teaching schedule.
Music, dance, painting, literature, philosophy, court etiquette, heraldry, appreciation, wine tasting... In addition, there is also the mother of Valed, Madame Windsor, who teaches him the rulers. If you translate it again, it is "the art of emperors". Of course, in vampires, it cannot be called that. There is a better name, how vampires, a noble, represent the fundamental interests of the vast number of vampires.
Of course, Madame Windsor himself didn't learn it very well. So most of the time, Valed himself needs to understand it. This series of courses made Valed dizzy. Compared to the weightlifting like learning magic, it was much worse. I was tired a day and my academic performance might not be good.
Naturally, Tracy could not be taught by herself. In fact, she could not teach them either. Tracy was good at music and dance, and she was good at painting and court etiquette. But literature, philosophy and other things were not her specialty. So Madame Windsor invited another teacher to teach him.
The most famous writer and writer in the Elson von Castein family, is also the historian who compiled the "Relief History of Silvania". He is now 3,724 years old.
In the academy led by Count Castein, he served as a professor of history, literature and philosophy. He had personally participated in Sylvania twice and had a comprehensive conquest of the old world. It can be said that it was the living fossil of these two wars. Vared's father, grandfather, and great-grandfather all received the education of this elder. This time it was Vared's turn.
Because the old man had different identities, Madame Windsor was embarrassed and asked him to come to the house. Instead, she asked Valed to come to study. Anyway, the old man's house was not far away. It was just under the Earl's Corps, in a small manor. It took only ten minutes to take a carriage.
When he first met Elson, Valed felt very shocked. He was shocked by the wisdom contained in the old man's eyes and the power contained in the old man's body. At the same time, the old man showed an admiration for Valed. He was satisfied with his achievements at this age.
"Young man, it's very nice, sit."
So Vared sat down obediently and listened to the elder who looked about thirty years old, but who was a hundred times the age of his appearance, explaining the course to him. Just as Madame Windsor got rid of it. What he talked about was the artistic value of literary works, the rhetorical methods and expressions required to write articles. The philosophical concepts of various factions, and the philosophy of dealing with people and the philosophy he had experienced for thousands of years after living.
In front of this old man, Vared was so obedient that he did not look decent. He did not dare to make any disrespectful moves. Although the old man himself was also a very gentle and easy-to-get-in-one person.
At the beginning, Vared thought to be able to learn some knowledge about magic from the old man. However, after a while, he gave up this plan. Because what he could learn from the old man was much more precious than those magic, martial arts, etc.
If Valed was afraid of the old man's power at the beginning, after a period of time, Valed was convinced by the old man's wisdom.
"Children, look at the teachers of some races. When teaching students, they have to go through many tests when choosing, young people, high talent, strong system, and ones. They need this or that. It seems that they care a lot about this.
However, when educating them specifically, the teachers only taught them how to kill people, but not how to deal with people. In the end, they were all taught a group of murderers with all five poisons and simple violence. What a sad thing?
If you look at the colleges that humans have opened, it would be even more excessive. The subjects you learn are all magic and martial arts. They are all killing. Even some professors in literature and art are just decorations. If students don’t study hard, teachers don’t teach them carefully. They specialize in killing. It seems that students can make their mark as long as they learn to kill. Don’t learn from them.”
The old man said this, Valed's face turned red. In fact, before that, he was just focusing on how to kill people. He was disdainful of other aspects of knowledge. Sometimes he was impatient in class and deliberately made trouble. It was like stepping on Tracy's feet while dancing.
"Child, you have to remember that if the world wants to make progress, it cannot rely solely on the ability to kill people. Even if the more people kill, the more chaos the world will be. The army and force are indeed important forces to maintain the survival and expansion of a country. But they must not rely on them to govern the country. Governing the country and social progress rely on the guidance of philosophy, the influence of culture and art, and the progress of technical level - it is definitely not killing people!"
The old man's words touched Vared deeply and suddenly became enlightened. He studied very carefully in the subsequent teaching. There was no accident like deliberately stepping on Tracy's feet. He studied more seriously and his learning efficiency increased significantly. Recently, he became more and more adult vampire aristocratic demeanor. Sometimes when Madam Windsor saw him, she even felt a trance and vaguely felt that she had seen her dead husband.
After two years like this, Valed learned a lot and reached eight years old. It was time to go to the college to continue his studies - although his learning progress had exceeded the college's teaching progress.
When his mother, Madame Windsor, told him the result of this day, Vared nodded and said calmly: "Okay." There was no more expression. Isabella was very happy, because if Vared went to school, she would have been with her for a longer time.
There are few vampires in Sylvania, and even fewer vampires are underage. And the age group is different. There are only a few people of the same age as Vared. Therefore, there are no specific start dates for each earl leader and the advanced academies opened by the Citizens' Congress. As long as the freshmen are over 8 years old, they can come to class.
So, just a few days after Valed's eighth birthday, Madame Windsor asked about his opinion. After getting a positive answer, the next Sunday, the lady took the time to go to the academy under the Earls and took care of President Asta. By the time Vared was able to go to school tomorrow.
It was also on this day that Vared only brought his maid, Maya, and took the ghost carriage to go to Grandpa Elson and Teacher Tracy's house. He explained this matter to them. At the same time, he also said thank you to them for their hard work in teaching for two years and for their hard work.
The first person to visit Mr. Elson's house was at home. After visiting, he explained his purpose. The old man nodded and said, "It is good to communicate with friends of similar age. You can't always study alone." He agreed with Valed's plan to go to the college to study. He also gave Valed several books he collected to Valed. One is "Summary of Poetry and Literature in the Old World" and the other is "The Art of Language and Acts".
Teacher Tracy's house is the second to be visited. It is different from Elson's single-family small manor. She lives in the teacher's residence in the college area. This is a villa area with a nice environment. Both the appearance and the decoration are elegant. It can be seen that the vampires are willing to invest supplies and money in this regard.
However, there are not many teachers living in this villa area. They usually live in the Earl's Corps, and other manors and castles. They usually live there. Only single teachers like Trish will live here.
After Vared entered the academy, he asked for directions. Then he directed the carriage to walk towards the teacher's residential area. Because it was Sunday, the academy was quieter and there were no people. Almost all the students who were already rare went home. Vared never met anyone along the way.
When he arrived at the front of Trish's villa, Vared jumped out of the car. He went to the front of the villa with his maid Maya and looked at the door sign next to him. It was indeed Miss Baron von Al. It was Trish's family name. Vared once heard her say that her parents and brothers were no longer alive. So she is probably the only one who uses this family name. She will never make any mistakes.
After confirming, Vared gently pulled the doorbell at the door. Through the transmission of the magic wind, a pleasant ringtone suddenly rang in the villa.
