Chapter 368: Practical Class
Another month passed.
The changes in the Kingdom of the Vale continued, but many people had already felt the positive effects brought by these changes.
Nothing else.
At least the death rate of humans in the Kingdom of the Vale at the hands of Pokémon was greatly reduced.
Whether dying at the hands of wild Pokémon, or dying at the hands of Pokémon in the army of the Kingdom of the Blessed Isles, the casualty rate was much lower than before.
The reason.
Is nothing more than the People of the Vale starting to understand Pokémon.
Understanding their habits, lifestyle, living range, precursors of attacks, etc.
Knowing these.
Can try to avoid those risks.
Of course, the impact won't be just this one, just that other aspects of impact are not so obvious yet.
Moreover.
This impact is currently mainly limited to Eindoak Town and several surrounding towns; no changes have occurred in farther places.
Pokémon Academy.
This is a new building built only last month, affiliated with the royal family of the Kingdom of the Vale.
Using the names of the royal family and the State Preceptor.
Pokémon Academy almost immediately became the highest institution of learning in the Kingdom of the Vale as soon as it appeared.
The People of the Vale all wanted to send their children to school, and even wanted to come to learn personally.
However.
Currently, there is only one teacher in Pokémon Academy, Will.
So can't teach many students.
Mainly the two princes, and high-ranking civil and military officials.
Let them learn first, then teach their subordinates.
The academy area is not large, nor particularly luxurious.
After all, it's a place built in only half a month; can't expect much luxury.
Moreover.
"A mountain doesn't need to be high; if there is an immortal, it is famous. A water doesn't need to be deep; if there is a dragon, it is spiritual." (Idiom meaning it's the substance that matters).
In the classroom.
"Although Haxorus is a Pokémon very good at fighting, their level requirement to evolve from Fraxure is also very high. This is also why only the highest-ranking generals in the Kingdom of the Blessed Isles have them..."
Will stood on the podium, pointing to the drawing of the Haxorus line hand-drawn on the board behind him.
He hadn't been a teacher before.
Didn't understand how to lecture systematically.
So he followed his own rhythm.
Currently focusing on explaining specific Unova Pokémon, interspersing basic knowledge during the explanation.
Talking about four or five specific Pokémon every day; in less than two months, he can finish talking about most Pokémon in the Unova region.
The remaining Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, and ancient Pokémon don't need to be discussed.
Specifically talking about Pokémon in the Unova region.
In the future, this is not conducive to the long-term development of a rookie trainer; the correct education method should start from basic knowledge.
But this is the biggest improvement for the current Kingdom of the Vale.
Because it is now the era of magical beasts.
Pokémon from other regions are almost unseen on the Unova land.
For the people of the Kingdom of the Vale, knowing these Pokémon in the Unova region is already considered knowing "all Pokémon in the world."
After all...
They might not have the chance to go to other regions and see Pokémon from other regions until death.
Wait until finishing learning these Pokémon.
In the future, these warriors in the wild and on the battlefield.
Meeting corresponding Pokémon, the knowledge he taught will automatically come to mind, thereby thinking of countermeasures.
Will was a bit tired from talking, stopping to drink some water.
Exactly at this quiet time.
Snore...
A snoring sound came from directly in front of the classroom.
After the sound rang.
Other people in the classroom showed embarrassed looks on their faces.
Will moved two steps to the side.
Looking at Kazan arranged by him next to the podium.
Sure enough.
This kid fell asleep on the table again.
Letting him sit in the position of left and right guardians (close to teacher), he could still fall asleep.
This is a Pokémon class!
If it were Will in the Blue Star (Earth) back then, he would definitely listen more seriously than anyone else.
Smack!
"Go stand at the back!"
Will slapped Kazan on the head.
"Mm..."
Kazan got up dazedly, didn't even need to open his eyes, walking familiarly towards the back.
Actually he was listening.
Although his eyes were closed, he really listened.
Just that Teacher didn't believe it.
Rami sitting on the other side of the podium sighed helplessly.
Tonight his brother will receive Teacher's beating again.
In the evening.
Will led Rami and Kazan out of the school.
But after walking a distance.
They found this wasn't the road leading to the palace.
"Teacher, where are we going?"
Rami looked curiously at the dog beside him.
"Taking you to a practical class."
"Huh~ Still class?"
Kazan looked bitter.
"Practical class is different from theory class; don't need you to listen, just need you to look, even do it yourself."
"? What does that mean?"
A question mark popped up on Kazan's head.
"That means, I take you to the wild, personally see those Pokémon seen in class, and even let you personally try to contact them."
"What?!" (x2)
Two completely different responses sounded.
Rami's voice carried some concerns and worries.
But Kazan was full of excitement and expectation.
Usually, due to their identities, the two children were basically not allowed to leave the Kingdom of the Vale, even needing to carry several guards for daily travel.
Only now with Will around.
Out of trust in him, Dresa allowed the two children to go out without guards.
As for leaving the city?
That was something the two children dared not even think about.
In the past, only when following Father King and the army were they allowed to go out and have a look.
"Teacher, how about asking Father King first? Sneaking out, we will be punished when we come back, right?"
Rami reached out and pulled Will's paw.
"Shut up Rami! After telling Father King about this, do you think we still have a chance to go out?! If you dare not go, go back yourself!"
Kazan came between the two from the other side, slapping away Rami's hand holding Will.
Finally having a chance to go out.
He didn't want to lose the chance because of this timid brother.
"Working behind closed doors is not advisable; my teaching was not comprehensive enough before, neglecting this point. In the future, I will often take you out." Will shook his head.
The reason wasn't just what he said, but also because of Kazan.
Compared to sitting in one place listening all the time.
Maybe personally going out to see and try suits him better.
Forget other students in the academy.
For his two disciples, Will needs to consider more, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
Moreover, he won't take the two princes to places too far or with complex terrain.
At least with his current strength, at most lead them to wander on this plain outside the city, looking at Pokémon living nearby.
Really encountering any danger.
With his ability, taking two princes to escape is also a simple matter.
Speaking of his own strength.
Will has been in this era for two months.
He found he hadn't leveled up yet.
This is very strange.
Admittedly, due to helping Dresa handle state affairs and teaching students, his training frequency is far incomparable to the past.
But anyway.
Two months passed, should have leveled up, right?
Before transmigration, he had been at Lv. 53 for a while.
Will suspected something went wrong with his body, but he doesn't know what went wrong now; the panel doesn't show it, and Aura can't sense it.
He is also investigating this matter.
But no clue.
Will put this matter aside for now, leading the two princes out of the city.
Out of the city.
"Beautiful."
Will couldn't help nodding in praise looking at the plain appearing in front of him.
This grassland outside Eindoak grew very well.
Different from the grassland overgrown with weeds outside the Kingdom of Draconids back then.
The weeds on this grassland didn't grow to an exaggerated one meter high, at most only thirty or forty centimeters high.
And there were many flowers and other plants on the grassland.
This is mainly the credit of the Pokémon living on this grassland—Bouffalant.
Bouffalant's staple food is weeds.
They need to eat a lot of weeds to make the volume of hair on their heads larger.
The larger the volume of this hair, the more charming the Bouffalant, and the higher the status in the clan.
Before Will appeared.
This grassland had no specific name.
Just that this grassland is located within the range of 'Hometown of the Vale', so this place is also called Hometown of the Vale.
But after he appeared, this grassland was called Bouffalant Grassland.
According to Dresa.
When their People of the Vale built Eindoak here back then, this grassland was already the world of Bouffalant.
The number of Bouffalant living on this grassland is counted in thousands.
Just the number of clans is up to a hundred.
Because the number of a Bouffalant clan is around 20; more or less will make them uncomfortable.
Most easily seen here.
Is 20 Bouffalant running together on the plain, or two Bouffalant clans fighting.
So many Bouffalant living here.
Of course, the weeds on this grassland can't grow very high, even with Dragon Veins nourishing their growth.
"You should have seen Bouffalant often; today take you to find relatively rare Pokémon."
Will led the two little ones walking on the grassland under the night sky.
While releasing Aura for perception, his eyes and ears were also obtaining surrounding situations at all times.
Heard rumors in the city before.
Several strange fox Pokémon appeared on this grassland.
Will sensed at that time it might be Zoroark.
This is an amazing Pokémon.
Although their base stats are not high, and the type is only single Dark.
But like the Lucario clan, while being rare, they also possess special and powerful racial abilities.
This ability is also their Ability—Illusion.
The Zoroark line is the only Pokémon among all possessing this Ability.
Most importantly...
There is a movie developed with them as important characters.
This point is also the same as Lucario.
Also because of the existence of these two movies, in the past, some people unfamiliar with Pokémon mistakenly thought Lucario and Zoroark were Legendary or Mythical Pokémon.
