This story is my youngest one, just created today at school as I got the idea not long before that. Now u guys probably question me, why did I update this when I could update my other series story that you guys are waiting for... Well, I'm in the mood to write this. And not exactly in the mood to write the other stories... Bus seriously don't suspect me. And don't give up on me, I did write my other stories' continuation.
Probably around this month... Dude, the day when my student's report card got onto my my hand is not so long and sad to tell u guys I don't believe it would be a satisfaction. It's just too hard to concentrate as I always find my mind wandered off no matter how hard i tried. And many of my teachers like to abandon their class, and their teaching method is... So lousy, I mean seriously, have u ever encountered a teacher who is only reading the book in front of the class carelessly and then be done with that? Whenever we asked questions she would gave us a circling rounding and confusing answer that not resolve our questions at all instead making us go 'what the hell I don't understand her, but let's just nod my head and go with it'.
We got assigned to search the theory ourselves, but they didn't specify which one we should paid extra attention to, I mean not everyone born with Grisia's brain y'know? I would love to if I could.
And then there's our head of departement now seems to hate us and don't care about us at all. And the chemistry's teacher method of teachi left me gawking at the whiteboard, clueless about what has to do. The physics is no any better as the original teacher is on maternity leave and the subtitute is a college student and completely still in training and incapable adding to that we're so much left behind as the original teacher's leave actually gone for 2 months before the subtitute arrive.
The maths is a bit better, but I can't remember anything at all in exam... Getting bottom line avarange would be and easy go out. And the Hand Made Art teacher is just too unreasonable.
My mentallity is one of thus which like to search for a reason at any problem I face to console me and make me a bit better but I know about mentallity problems too much and aware of my condition of blaming everything around me and I know it's not entirely healthy but hey, Human is a creature who always tried to see a flaw and blame the others. Sigh... Why do I even tell this to u guys? It must be boring isn't it? After all there are so much people facing much worse condition than I am, and here I am typing this all in a moment of sentimentallity. Damn, did you see that? Yes, my mental defense is up again huuuh.
EXCUSE THE GRAMMAR MISTAKE
To Train under the Sun:
Twelve Holy Knights in training, the future 39th generation, stood there vexedly looking as proper as they could. Today, their teachers surprising cancel their respective classes telling them that they have a mixed class with the current Sun Knight. Having been four years in training not even once the Sun Knight teached a joint training and the others current Holy Knights have all teach them at least twice one after another. For once, Judgement and Hell Knight teached them a swordmanship joined class. Storm Knight lead their running regiment etc etc.
But not even once the Sun Knight teached them, so it make them to be expectant. Everyone expect something... Whether it' something good or bad. Elaro, on the other hand, expects the worst.
Sound of footsteps drew their attention to the graceful approeachibg figure. The current Sun Knight entered the secluded training field. This place's not only secluded but also has a lot tree shades. Elaro took time to silently applauded his teacher, maybe he could use this place to train later on, after all it's much more efficient than to waiting until evening or cloudy to train outside.
Gracefully stopped in front of them, Grisia gave them his gentle bright smile.
.
As for Sun, he never wanted to teach this joint class whatsoever in the first place... He's a busy person! Everything that's more important needs his attends! (Like his winery for example). But nooooo! His peers just had to ganging up on him, forcing him to teach these squires that always gave him a heartache whenever he saw them stood beside the nineteen years old Elaro.
Their existence repeatedly reminding Sun of how longer he would get to retire. He just wants to retire soon, seeing Elaro already looks mature and capable enough. Then gone to make a new identity, building a massive bar, putting his 'Wine Brewing' skill to make money, demanded much fund from Awaitsun to make it work out (He's still the Demon King after all), and flirts with every hot figured girls who come to his bar, and for final touch, have every of his brothers to live with him in the third floor of his bar where he would live and hold his private life. But ofc, the dream is looking so far now... Sob.
And what of teaching a joined class anyway? His comrades always let him slide off, seeing he already cultivate Elaro to be a good and responsible man he is, despite Sun's many headache-inducing traits. But, recently they come over to him, while he's drinking a cup of tea (that's actually wine) in the inner garden calmly, and demanding him to teach a joined class.
Apparently they deemed that his daily life is too leisurely. And of course Sun immadieately retalliate. The king's absolute requests are too much! He had to spent at least a day to form a plan (never mind that actually 33% of the day is to sleep, and the other 50% is to drink his sorrow away.).
Adair couldn't lead the entire platoons himself, he's still occasionally come to ask some questions and plans.
His wine also couldn't brew themselves, moreover who ask them to come and steal some his precious wine?.
He also had many other shady matters to attend. Adding to that he's still teached Elaro everyday... Alright, every other days. Now they forced him to teach these squires in one go?
Elaro couldn't even fell down gracefully yet... In fact his falling manner is extremely ugly that Sun almost want to disown him at the first sight. Extremely unsightly!
Sun pushed him off of a twelve steps stairs a few days ago to see how much improvement he got after three years since he started to learn this 'Falling Gracefully' skill. The result is extremely embrassing. There are only twelve steps! Yet, he fell down so ungracefully. In an instant Sun actually understand his teacher feeling when he was teaching him swordmanship. He just wants to strolled out and grab a random passerby then pushed them off of the stairs and then screaming at Elaro: "See this person could fell even more gracefully than you! And he/she fell down face first! Now tell me how you couldn't fell down as graceful as they are!?". His falling manner actually so ungraceful that Sun had no doubt that if his teacher, the former Knight Captain Sun sees it, he would beat up Elaro for his ungracefulness then beat Sun up for being a useless teacher.
.
Sun scanned the squirts' faces one by one, appraising their good look. The church's future would be stable alright, though he can't really 'see'.
"Teacher Sun! What would we learn from you today?" Young Blaze asked, trying hard to act like every bit of Blaze Knight he is. Grisia's face get even brighter.
"Good question, young one" he stated and pulled out a chair out of nowhere then proceed to sits on it, he put his one leg on top the other gracefully
"Sit children" Sun motioned gently. The in training slowly sit down, putting their weapons on their laps.
"Sun will teach no practice but theory." Sun stated normally and they nodded
"Though maybe I could give you a training regiment later on. Let's just see the condition." Sun murmured absently.
"Alright..." ... To be honest it was all so sudden that Sun prepare nothing at all to teach to these little ones...
"Humm,.. Ah, first let's talk about Undead, our Church of God-"
"Sir Sun Knight, do we gonna learn a very basic things" Hungri huffed unhappily.
"Hungri." Elaro warned and Hungri glared at him in turn.
Sun turned to Hungri, his expression turn complex... After all he indeed felt a little bad for naming the child "Hungri" what the hell? It was also originate from his extreme hunger too (meaning it's also partially everyone's fault for not feeding him properly) adding to that girly name, Hungri's face also girly... No, he wasn't sympathizing because he was also the same, what are you looking at? His face is masculine! His name is also masculine! No! He wasn't denying anything.
In turn at being stared at, Hungri stared back at the blonde man coldly, but the longer he stared he realized that the Sun Knight's line of stare is slightly off and unfocused, in fact the longer he stares back to more Hungri feels like staring at a blind man. Hungri blinked, flabbergasted at his own thought, by that time Sun already retracted his gaze and he suddenly got an idea.
He smiled dazzlingly at the little guys, some instantly squinting their eyes. "Right. Young Judgement is right, it would be boring!" he volunteerely agree.
"How about we talked about you teachers now, hum?" he smiled gently toward them like they were all a precious jewels and his own sons. But Elaro know better, he started to expect worse than worst. All children perked up.
Sun turned his line of eyes to Judge, after all he's the one who gave the name as a set of ridiculous names that originate from Judgement's absent. "Young Earth, do you know your teacher's likes and dislikes?"
Judge blinked, "um,... Teacher likes teas... And Teacher seems to have a good amount of sweets in his room and he also has many hankerchiefs. So I guess he likes them as well" Judge answered earnestly. He honestly don't know why Teacher Sun asked this.
"Good. Do you know that at least once or twice a week he always help a damsel who loses her hankerchief?" Sun inquired more.
Judge's eyes litted up as he knew the answer, "Yes." he nodded eagerly.
"And he also likes to invite them to his room, no?"
"Yes."
"Teacher Sun will tell you something, whenever you saw him doing that, interrupt them, either when it's when he talk to the girl or when they're in his room, try to drive the girl's away." Sun instructed in hushed tone.
Judge's expression turned awkward, "I've done that once accidentally... Teacher didn't like it at all and told me to not do that again..." Judge answered hesitantly.
Sun silenced him with a cheerful smile, "Nonsense, your teacher is actually happy! He likes to be disturbed at that. He's just being dishonest to himself. You all know the Moon Knight right? Naturally you know his eccentric trait of being dishonest to himself, right? That's being said, Sun thinks brother Moon's trait actually rubbing off on brother Earth. Which is making sense as the Earth and the Moon names had some kind of chemistry" Sun explained cheerfully. He's not fully lying though, If Earth dislikes to be interrupted so much, he wouldn't be so adamant in refusing Sun's small favors, after all if he did Sun's small favors Sun wouldn't interrupt him anymore, but no he didn't. That's the proof of Earth's likes to be interrupted. Or so Sun likes to think.
"Really?" Judge perked up.
"Yes." Sun nodded.
"And hm... Young Cloud?" Sun called out and a boy jumped slightly.
Grisia turned at him, "Have you mastered the Cloud steps?" Sun inquired.
Young Cloud shooks his head slowly, "No... Teacher hardly give me improvement class and it's hard to find him." he fiddled with his fingers.
Sun's eyes twitched subtly 'Seriously dee-dee, who's the slacker now?'
"Wait, I see... The former Knight Captain Cloud also teached him that way. One or two demonstration then gone to the banyan tree for a drink." Sun mumbled and sweatdropped, still manage to look graceful.
"And brother Cloud has always been a fast learner" Sun mumbled out loud. Then smiled down at the little cloud, at least this one doesn't hissing about his brightness.
"Young Cloud Knight, here's a tip. Whenever your teacher appeared (materialized) don't let your eyes wandered off, focus on him solely, and if he walked tried to keep up with him using the Cloud Step, do it everytime, if you could follow him without him realizing it, it would be even better! If you lost him in a corridorc check if there's any cupboards or cabinets in the corridor, if there is, open them all to find him. If there isn't any of them then, open the curtains. Also if there's any drawers open them all too, your teacher's never been picky anymore since a few years ago." Sun explained patiently, using his pointer finger to gesture at a few things.
Young Cloud listened at him carefully and attentively before nodded with a smile "Thank you Teacher Sun!" He murmured audibly.
"Of course! If you can't find your teacher for the day, you could always switch it to other Holy Knight Captains with the exception of me. Because I'm the one who give you the tips, understand? And with your current skill of Cloud Step you can't follow me without me discovering you, in fact the only one who could follow me without being discovered probably only your teacher alone, the current Cloud Knight." Sun convinced. The Young Cloud nodded again.
'Good, he's also a pushover.' Sun smiled.
Sun turned to everyone once more, trying to search something. "Young Storm?" Where's Awaitsun's son?.
"Yes, Teacher Sun?" Shuis held up his hand from his position beside Elaro. Ah, silly him, of course he's gonna be beside Elaro
"Try to run around me once." Sun instructed. Shuis stood up and run around Sun once less than a second. Sun blinked.
"Good, slightly a bit faster then brother Storm when he was your age. Astounding." Sun praised. Even so, It's still a bit of bottom line as Storm started to be a Holy Knight in Training when he was ten and Shuis started when he was seven. The training time is at Shuis' advantage by three years, but he's only slightly faster. But then again Storm is in his generation of prodigy.
Shuis nodded solemnly and sit down looking a bit thoughtful, he's happy he's actually faster than his teacher when he was his age, but in the other hand he knew his advantage and a bit dissatisfied.
"From now on I want you to double up you running regiment. And additionally, whenever you entered your teacher room ran as fast as you can to explore the room a bit then stop in front of your teacher." Sun instructed.
"Why, Teacher Sun?" Shuis inquired sceptically.
"Because only your teacher who can grade you accurately in term of speeds" Sun explained earnestly.
Shuis actually wanted to refuse at first but when he heard the last sentence, he relaxed and nodded obediently, 'Big Brother Elaro's teacher is really suited to be Big Bro's Teacher'
While Sun inwardly laughing maniacally 'Storm would never be mad at you. So ran in there and mess his paperworks with your running speed!' Sun cackled inwardly. Who told Storm to sent two metres tall worth of documents into his room anyways?.
Elaro already facepalmed at the side, in a manner of someone who wants to cried yet no tears come out.
"And Young Judgement, you know your teacher-' and without everybody knowing it, Sun already create a little army of revenge on them. And for the next several days or maybe months or perhaps years. The other Holy Knight Captains of 38th generation taste his sweet revenge and they would eternally regret that decision they made to get themselves a bit vacation.
Aftermath, Sun doesn't have to teach a joint class anymore. In fact he's banned from it. The little in trainings are left questioning on why the dazzling Sun Knight is banned from teaching them when he's actually done it pretty nicely?
