INFINITE PATHS: THE RAGING PHOENIX - Season 1 Episode 19

“Rain, you don’t have to go to school if you don’t want to; I also felt like such a place was a waste of time,” Roan said when he noticed that Rain was more quiet than usual. “It is only a place to turn kids into easy-to-control subjects… I honestly thought that, and I ended up relying on my family in the end to survive, so you need to be smarter than me.” Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

It was easy to look down on school, but one had to be even smarter to survive without it. In that world, those who didn’t go to school ended up working as farmhands, workers of numerous companies, and similar things. Adventurers as well, but it was a lot riskier since they could be hired as mercenaries in times of war as well.

Regardless, Rain made his choice already, so he just had to wait for a while. While he waited for a couple of months, he asked his father more about how the school worked. All towns and cities had one, but they worked in the same manner. However, once they graduate from a number of courses, they have to head to the capital for a more specialized formation.

As to how the school worked, there were some basic subjects like History, Etiquette, Economy, Military, Arts, Sciences, Politics, and Magic. Roan, for example, was able to become a knight after graduating in the Etiquette, Military, and History subjects. Those had numerous branches after the students passed a test, Military branches into Basic Combat Training and Archery.

“Why would they need to teach kids around five years old how to use a bow? Are they really desperate for child soldiers?” Rain thought.

Still, at least the system was interesting; once the kids graduated from the second level, they could choose many other courses in the same subject. They had different ways to measure the kids’ competence in those fields, though. Naturally, in the Military, the body would be tested more, while in Economics, the mind would be tested.

“Maybe School will be more interesting than I imagined… the fact that I will have to interact on a daily basis with brats is a downside, but I can’t have my cake and eat it too,” Rain thought.

Moreover, the tests could be done whenever the students wanted. Since the people of the human country wanted soldiers and talented individuals in numerous fields, they weren’t planning to slow them down. Still, it was rare for kids to graduate in less than five years since failing was pretty embarrassing. They would rather take their time studying and preparing.
