127 [Bonus chapter] The son of the Emperor
The moment Arthur reached that shop, and met with the man that made his fake ID, he acted as nothing had happened.
“Hello, it is you. I already talked with my contacts, and you also got lucky as one teacher left the school a few days ago. Here, take it. This is the acceptance letter.”
He handed over the letter, and Arthur gladly accepted it. With that, he could enter the school without problems.
Arthur waved at the man and left. It was almost certain that the man would try something, but that would be stupid of him.
Namida school was in a rich neighborhood, and the size of it was incredible. Arthur stood in front of it and walked towards the two guards that were guarding the main gate.
They tried to stop him, and ask who he was, but all Arthur needed to do was show his documents, and the guards let him passed, and treated him with respect, far different from before.
“Follow us, Akhur.” One guard said.
Arthur used the same famous name that spread throughout the tribes. Inside the city, that name wasn’t famous, so it was also a way to spread his name there.
The courtyard of the school was immense, and what impressed Arthur the most was the green vegetation. He guessed that someone had a magic capable of growing plants, as it was the only explanation, considering how the rest of the area was literally a desert.
Just like in any school, Arthur had to talk with the president the moment he entered there, and that was exactly the place the guards led him.
An old-man with a long gray beard and hair stood behind a desk. He sensed Arthur before he even pushed the door to enter his office.
“Come in and sit, please.”
Arthur did just like the old man said.
“He has a level of 80, which is incredible, considering almost everyone I saw inside this empire was utterly crap.” Arthur thought.
“Show me your letter, please.”
He handed it over and waited for the old man to read it. Arthur kept close attention to the man’s expressions, as they changed countless times throughout the letter.
It was probably because the letter had lots of signatures from important people, which was something rare for a teacher to have.
“You seem very capable, considering these people have trusted you to my school. Well, we are indeed missing a teacher, so you showing up it is destiny.”
“You can live in the teacher’s dorm or in any house you have inside the city. Only the students wear uniforms, so you can also dress the way you seem to fit. You’ll start after lunch. Is that okay with you?”
“Of course.”
“Good, good. For now, you’ll be responsible for the combat classes, and that includes the teaching of many weapons, and also how to fight properly against other humans or beasts. You can leave now.”
Arthur nodded and left the office. If it was before, then he would be terrified to teach such classes, but now? It was a piece of cake. The dream he had some time ago of the weapon master had made him master almost all kinds of weapons.
There was still some time before his first class, so Arthur took the chance to explore the school.
All the students that were chilling between classes, or even during their classes in the open, gazed at him, and soon the whisperings began.
“Who is that good-looking man over there? Is he a new teacher?”
“Maybe, as teacher, Wattan left a few days ago.”
“If he’s the combat teacher, then I want to wield his sword.”
“Shh, what if he hears us?”
Most of the students who were curious about him were woman, but also some men that were scared.
“Is he an arduous teacher? I need the grades or else my parents will kill me.”
“Well, he doesn’t seem like it, but appearance can lead to mistakes sometimes.”
“True.”
The girls were concerned about how he looked, and the boys wanted to know if he would kick their ass during the combat classes. A normal day for a teacher of Namida school.
Arthur heard all of that and had a smile.
“My time here will be interesting.”

The school had a huge main building were most of the things were, excluding the dorms and the garden, obviously.
Arthur explored the place, walking through all the corridors and entering all doors. He even walked inside a classroom with students by mistake.
“A library!” Arthur thought.
He was looking precisely for that place. The idea behind him coming there was to gather more knowledge, and that was the place where he would get it.
It was bigger than he expected, which meant there were more books. Arthur stood in front of the library when a youth passed by him, tackling him using his shoulder.
“Get out of the way, old man.” The youth said in an arrogant tone.
Arthur was already considered a teacher there, so there was no way he would let that pass. Hell, even if he wasn’t a teacher, he would teach that youth a lesson.
“Hey, why did you tackle me? Are you blind or just stupid?”
The youth turned around, looked at Arthur, and said, “excuse me? Don’t you know who am I?”
“Should I? I mean, you’re quite ugly. From this day inward, I’ll never forget such a horrendous face!”
“YOU! My father is the Emperor. Do you know the weight of these words?”
“What? Really? I didn’t know the Emperor had the face of a beast, too.”
“I’ll never forget this, just you wait.” The youth said, turning around to leave.
Arthur instantly grabbed him by the shoulder, and said, “when did I let you leave?”
“What will you do?”
He was trying to act tough, but after seeing that the emperor’s name did not affect Arthur, he was scared.
“I read the rules of the school, and they are fierce. Fighting between students is allowed, and if someone disrespect a teacher you can beat the shit out of the student too. Now, just because I’m in a good mood, I’ll only break your arms, and not your legs, okay?”
“Wh-?”
Before the youth finished, Arthur snapped both of his arms, shattering them into pieces.
