Chapter 112: Shortest Period Again

You definitely said youd grant anything, right? I believe youll keep your promise, my friend.

Principal looked at Sword Saint and said.

Sword Saint let out a small groan, as if he hadnt expected Ethan to make this kind of request.

Clearly, Ethan was a skilled swordsman.

If he was that skilled, he would have asked to be shown his swordsmanship.

In fact, Sword Saint had told some young swordsmen before that he would grant their requests.

When they heard that, every single swordsman wanted him to observe their swordsmanship.

There were no exceptions.

So this was a definite opportunity to see Ethans skills.

Seeing Sword Saints lukewarm reaction, Ethan opened his mouth with a composed expression.

You said youd grant anything you could, but if its something you cant do, thats fine. It could be a difficult request.

His attitude seemed to say forget it if you cant do it and he didnt look regretful at all.

The Sword Saint of the world said hed grant a request, yet he was reacting so half-heartedly, and Ethan didnt have a shred of regret?

Suddenly, the Sword Saints eyes lit up.

This was a matter of his pride.

Moreover, he could feel the others sincerity in his reaction, making him even more frustrated.

Ill do it.

Sword Saint nodded and answered.

For your class. As a guest lecturer. Ill go when you want.

If you do that, Ill be incredibly grateful. The students will love it so much if you, Sword Saint, come give a lecture. The Swordsmanship Department students will become even more passionate about training, and be able to contribute to Ivecar Academy.

Only then did the Sword Saint recall again that Ethan was a teacher.

Seeing him brace his aura and act rather boldly made the Sword Saint briefly forget he was a teacher.

Ethan was a swordsman, but also a teacher.

His first wish wasnt to become stronger himself, but for the students to receive proper education and become stronger.

Very good. Its a splendid idea.

Thinking that, the Sword Saint looked at Ethan again.

My worthless grandson has met too great a rival.

Im maintaining a good relationship with Teacher Ciron Ramsdale. For Ivecar Academys development.

Hmm, I almost want to tell him to go to another academy, but he can still develop greatly by your side. Well met.

Saying so, the Sword Saint handed Ethan a small blue gem with a faint smile.

Seeing that, the Principal asked in surprise.

Youre giving away something so precious?

Ill take it back anyway. I could just promise verbally and go back on it. So I should give something like this.

Receiving the gem, Ethan smiled slightly.

A verbal promise would have been enough. Hes not the sort whod break it. But still, giving me this means

He wants to continue the connection.

This blue gem was a fragment of the giant blue gem embedded in the head of a dragon the Sword Saint had slain.

I think theres a little over ten known ones.

He had given one to Ethan.

Although he said hed take it back, the important thing was that he had given it for now.

See you again, talented junior.

-Survival probability slightly increased!

An unexpected gain.

After Sword Saint left, Principal let out a big sigh.

Sorry about that, Teacher Ethan. The Sword Saint suddenly visiting, you see.

The Principal smiled wryly and apologized to Ethan, then invited him to sit.

Its alright. Thanks to this, I got to experience a bit of Sword Saints strength, and I received this too.

Ethan sat across from the Principal and put the blue gem in his breast pocket.

Itll come in handy next semester.

Its the Sword Saint of the world. Even if you ask, he said he wouldnt come to our Ivecar. Hes never done anything like a lecture anywhere else until now.

Then this is the first time.

The first time! Right, who knew that prickly old man would give a lecture here. Hahahaha!

Thinking about it again, the Principal laughed heartily.

I delayed too much time. Anyway, Teacher Ethan, I called you to talk about the inter-department competition.

Principal coughed a few times, then got to the main point.

Teacher Claudie is a quite promising professor at Ivecar. He already has 7 years of experience, and theres talk hell become Ivecars youngest master. Since Teacher Claudie came to Ivecar, hes won against Freya Academy several times.

Meanwhile, Ethan had just become a new teacher.

But as you know well, right? If we just go by that, theres no need for competition.

The Principal said with a grin.

Since youve decided to compete. Also, you currently have two classes, and a new class youre trying to open, right?

Then it was fine to see it as him being in charge of a total of three classes.

Having three classes was similar to the number Claudie had. It was far more than other professors with 3+ years of experience.

The number of students you teach has already exceeded 100, and the students should be able to come find you.

Ethan realized the Principal wasnt trying to have an in-depth talk about the inter-department competition.

Hes already going to give it to me. The conditions are met, I knew Id get it after first semester ends.

Ethan smiled slightly at the Principal.

Youre trying to give me something good.

There may be some backlash, but considering your accomplishments so far, the backlash shouldnt be too big. If theres any backlash, I have no reason to care about it. Since Im the Principal, right?

The Principal rummaged through a drawer and took out a silver key, handing it to Ethan.

Congratulations, Teacher Ethan. You will now have your own office.

Ivecars professors were assigned offices after some time passed. Years of experience were important, but they first had to meet the standards the academy had set.

If they didnt meet the conditions, even if they were assigned an office, it would be a very small office.

Not a single teacher with the new teacher label has received one. Teacher Claudie included. Youre the first.

There was no precedent of new teachers at Ivecar being assigned an office in their first year.

Ethan was the first.

Ethan smiled and bowed his head.

Thank you, Principal.

-Youve received a personal office in the shortest time period!

-Youve acquired your own exclusive space at the academy.

-Achievement accomplished!

-Gained Likes for accomplishing the [My Own Space] achievement.

-Obtained 2 Likes!

-Your reputation has increased!

Ill be relying on you, Teacher Ethan.

Ethan immediately headed to his new office.

Ethans office was in an area with several teachers offices clustered together.

Theres a shared office space, and personal offices you can use alone.

Ivecar had an area just for teachers, divided into offices and shared offices.

The shared offices were called department-shared offices, used jointly by the teachers of each department.

In contrast, the personal offices were independent spaces assigned to individual teachers.

Number 5002.

Ethan headed to Sky Building 5002.

He went up the building with quite an excited heart. After all, he was curious about the size of the office.

Teachers who met the conditions were all assigned offices, but the size of the office assigned varied based on results and position.

For instance, Claudie Hydes office was extremely large.

The size of a personal office indirectly indicated what position they held and how much influence they had within the academy.

[5002]

Ethan opened the door and went inside.

Oh.

What met his eyes was a fairly spacious area.

With this much, its obvious what the Principal thinks of me. Giving an office to a new teacher is one thing, but with this size, isnt this bigger than Claudies office?

It was understandable for the Principal to quietly call Ethan in to give him an office.

If he had openly given an office of this size to a new teacher, the backlash would have been considerable.

It was that big of an office.

As Ethan stepped into the office, a notification appeared right away.

[Housing System]

-You can decorate your office.

-Current office aesthetics score: 1

-Default state.

Its been a while.

The housing system.

Also called My Home, this system was literally a decorate-your-home feature. In a way, it was a cutesy element, so some people didnt like it, but Ethan enjoyed this system.

He hadnt decorated his actual home, but lived lavishly decorating his in-game home.

I kinda like this housing in secret. Plus, you can stack up a good number of achievements.

The office was simple.

There was a chair and desk, along with a small sofa and large bookshelf, seemingly the basic furniture provided.

It had the basic furniture, but it felt spacious because of how large it was.

Lets try what Ive been thinking about.

Ethan immediately opened New World.

When he first received the Eye of Horus merchandise in the New World, he had thought of something.

Originally, most merchandise was just collection items.

Meaning items you collect. Used more to cherish and appreciate than use.

Of course, there was merchandise like clothes and accessories too, but he didnt need that now.

Ethan was thinking of buying merchandise from New World to decorate his office.

-The gods youre subscribed to have new notifications.

Ethan immediately checked the new notifications.

He couldnt help but laugh.

-Hong Gil-dong has registered new merchandise.

-Horus has registered new merchandise.

-Heracles has uploaded a new video!

Of course, theyd have merchandise. They wouldnt have been able to properly make merchandise without Likes, but now they have plenty of Likes thanks to me.

Rather than looking at the merchandise right away, Ethan decided to leave a subscription review for Hang Woo first.

When practicing Supreme Resilience this time, he was able to produce a video of fairly high quality.

Hang Woo is already a god many subscribers are subscribed to. A common subscription video has no meaning.

What could be gained from subscribing to Hang Woo was tremendous power.

That power was very simple, and unlike Heracles, he intuitively explained that power.

Of course, even if it was intuitive, if you didnt understand the subtlety explained in the video, you would only gain a superficial grasp of the power and be unable to properly raise your proficiency.

But it cant be denied that its easy.

However, Ethan had subscribed to Hang Woo with the keyword defense.

Looking at it, theres nothing.

Among Hang Woos subscription reviews or posts in the subscriber community, there was no mention of Hang Woo being a god specialized in defense.

Most were filled with talk of using that mighty power to destroy a castle, or lifting and moving a mountain 300 meters.

So I just need to dig where others arent thinking about.

Offense and defense as one. That was Hang Woos identity.

Properly conveying that would let him gain far more subscribers and Likes than now.

First, Ethan left a message in the subscription review section that only Hang Woo could see.

-I will leave a subscription review.
