Brat nr. 2 POV
"Time for a history lesson" The mad professor said as he used his Pain Stick as a ruler to point at the new chalkboard he had pulled out of nowhere.
"Now then. Can any of you tell me the names of the four eras this world's history can be divided into."
Having learned my lesson from last time, I raised my hand and waited before speaking.
"Yes, brat nr.2"
"The Ming, Shao, Hi and now the Ryu dynasty era's."
"Wrong! I asked for the WORLD history, not the local one." He said as he pulled out a paper straw and launched a spit ball at me.
I swear this teacher is insane. What kind of teacher protects their students from bullies just so he can bully them even harder. If I wasn't sure he'd kick my ass, I would have already used this newfound energy of mine to punch that monocle of his, right off that eyepatch.
"Yes, brat nr. 3"
"Isn't the continents history divided into 3 eras, including this one? You know the Primordial, the Righteous, and now the Dark era after the Dark Empire."
"You're still thinking to small. I said 'The World'. That includes the other three continents.
"Yes, brat nr 1?"
"We don't know."
After stating the obvious as there are no events in any of the libraries' history books that include all four continents including the isolated magic continent.
"Is that so. I thought it was common knowledge since none of the history books here seems to mention any of them."
After spit balling Kenji and giving Aiko a pat on the head, such bias, he began explaining, while drawing a timeline on the chalkboard.
"So, the world was born millions of years ago after a ton of stuff I won't get into today. The beginning is what's known as the 'Age Of The Spirits'. The reason it was called that was due to the environment." He said as he pulled out a globe.
"You see, when the planet was born it was just a chaotic ball of fire and ice." He said as he froze one side of the globe while burning the other.
"The elements were in a chaotic upheaval, too dangerous for any new flesh and blood creature to be born. Hence, the first life forms to be born were 'elemental spirits'. A race of elemental energy given life." He said, as he turned to me.
"Brat nr. 2. Can you name the ruler of this era."
"Eh, didn't we say we don't know anything about this era."
She sent another spitball to my face. Fortunately, I saw it coming and dodged in time, causing it to hit Kenji who was trying to sneak by me with an experimental invisibility item someone had probably asked him to test.
"Brat nr. 3 back to your seat. Unless you want another round with the Pain Stick again?"
At those words I could see all the color draining from his face as Kenji headed back to his seat.
"Now where was I. Oh that's right. The current ruler of the world was called 'Oberon The Fairy King'. Also, make sure no greater spirits or higher hears you say this, since the spirit kings are still pretty butthurt about this, but he was actually a 'Spriggan'." My eyes went wide with surprise at his words.
"Yes, brat 1?"
"Teacher, what is a spriggan?"
"Well, as you might know. A 'Fairy' as some call them, are elemental spirits who can directly weald the elements of their corresponding type. But a 'Spriggan' which some call the 'Ugly Fairy' in a now forgotten language, is an elemental spirit born with multiple elements."
"'Oberon's elements are not known to me, but he was still considered to be the only elemental spirit in history to unite the nine elemental spirit kings under one banner."
"Yes, brat 3?"
"If he is so great, then why have we never heard about him?"
"Well, he was overthrown by a coalition of the other spirit kings just around the time the world became stable enough for flesh and blood creatures to be formed. After he kicked the bucket, the other spirit kings tried to cover it up, while hunting down any Spriggans they can find to prevent another Oberon from being born."
"And with that, we bring this era to a close and begin our lesson on the 'Draconic Age'. Now 1 point to whoever can tell me what species ruled this age and 10 points to the one who ruled it."
"Yes, brat 2?"
"It was ruled by dragons and was ruled by the dragon emperor."
"5 points to brat 2. Seems at least this much has made it into the history books. Now does anyone know the dragon emperor's name?"
"…?"
"Nobody. Well, the answer is *ROAR*. As he was born during the age before language was fully developed, he mostly just went by the cry dragons make as they release a breath attack."
"HEY THAT'S NOT FA- AAAAAAAAAHHHHH"
As I was trying to point out how absurd it is to ask for the name of someone who had none, I got a taste of the Pain Stick. The experience cannot be described with words, but I'll try. It felt like someone was slowly tearing my body apart before shoving all the pieces back together again, just so they could tear me apart once more.
"Now then, as for how this era came to a close. The strongest dragon in history emperor *ROAR* was killed after being ambushed by a group of the strongest class of dragons known as 'Dragon Lords' as well as the ruler of the next era."
"Now, who can tell me the name of the next era, as well as its ruler?"
*Ring*
Before anyone could answer, the school bell rang, signaling the end of today's class.
"You all better come up with an answer by next general history class! You hear me!"
He yelled at us while we were all hurrying to leave this mad man's class.
