Reincarnation with AI (Unemployment-Free)

Chapter 70 The Real Vision

The next morning, Rudius, led by the butler, arrived at the teaching room.

After opening the door, the butler took his leave.

Enter the room.

Rudius saw that Kyrie I was already seated, waiting for his arrival.

The tables and chairs were placed near the window, which had a different style from the restaurant but looked equally expensive, and brought in good lighting.

This is indeed a good location.

Rudius looked around but couldn't find Alice.

"Good morning, Gilead." Rudeus approached Gilead with teaching materials in hand.

"Oh, good morning, Rudeus," Kyrie Irvine replied, looking at what Rudeus was holding.

As Rudius placed the items on the table, his gaze inevitably swept over Kyriano's chest.

How wicked! But it was "they" who struck first!

Rudius inwardly apologized for his actions.

Sitting down next to Girenius, Rudeus casually asked, "Hasn't the young lady arrived yet?"

"Alice won't arrive for a while."

"I see. Then, Gilead, tell me what you know first?" Rudeus inquired about Gilead's knowledge level in order to understand what he needed to teach him.

In the jobless world, there is no breakfast; Rudius comes directly to teach.

This is a two-meal-a-day system.

When Rudius is at home, he is more casual. His so-called breakfast is actually brunch, which is around 10 a.m.

Although this time is relatively early, it still coincides with the mealtime in this world.

Of course, even if Rudius grabbed a piece of bread to eat around 7 or 8 o'clock, his parents wouldn't say anything.

It's perfectly normal to eat something beforehand when you're hungry.

At this moment, Rudeus asked Girenouil a few questions, and after saying a few words, he wanted to know what to eat, but Rudeus didn't even know where the kitchen was.

Should we call the housekeeper or a maid?

Is there any problem with this behavior?

As Rudius was thinking, he heard footsteps outside the door, followed by the door being pushed open with a bang.

You can tell who's here just by their voice.

Upon seeing the visitor, Rudius stood up, bowed, and said, "Good morning, Miss Alice."

This time, Rudius did not use the aristocratic etiquette he had learned yesterday.

Kyrie I, on the other hand, remained calmly seated in his place.

"Hmph!" Alice stood in the doorway with her arms crossed and legs spread, and said loudly, "Father has already asked me to do this. Since Gilead himself brought it up, I agree to let you teach Gilead!"

The loud noise shattered the tranquility, dampening Rudius's spirits.

Can't we just speak normally?

Why does every sentence sound like you're singing "The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau"?

Rudius bowed again, and as he pondered what to say, he subconsciously adopted the role of a servant and casually said, "Thank you for your magnanimity."

"Hmph!" Seeing Rudeus's reaction, Alice raised her head and snorted again.

"Miss Alice, I heard from Uncle Philip that you are very interested in adventurers' stories. Would you like to sit down and have a chat?" Rudius coaxed.

"What?! Aren't you supposed to be learning math?" Alice exclaimed in surprise. "If you were going to tell an adventurer's story, you should have told me beforehand!"

"I happen to have nothing to do right now, so I'll just listen to what you're saying!" With that, without waiting for Rudeus's response, Alice walked straight to the seat opposite Gilead.

Rudeus watched Alice take her seat, then looked at the still wide-open door, which no one had closed—had Alice come here by herself?

Rudius walked towards the door and closed it. He had originally planned to ask the butler or maid for some snacks.

Back in his seat, Rudius glanced at the slightly expectant Alice, then at the idle Kyrie, and asked, "Where were we?"

Kyrie Irvine flicked its tail and said, "Speaking of division."

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Alice stood up abruptly, slammed her hands on the table, and glared at Rudeus, saying, "Isn't this still about keeping the agreement?!"

The loud noise came again, and seeing the look in Alice's eyes, Rudeus felt like he was about to get punched.

"Wait a minute!" Rudeus quickly raised his hands to block Alice from view, saying, "Lady Alice! We're talking about division, which adventurers use, so this is an adventurer's story!"

Upon hearing Rudeus's explanation, Alice turned her gaze to Kyrie Illus, who looked at Rudeus with a puzzled expression.

"Oh dear," seeing that Alice didn't rush over, Rudeus placed his hands on the table and asked Kyrie Irvine, "Kyrie Irvine, why did you learn division? Did you encounter some problem you couldn't solve when you were an adventurer?"

"Oh," Kyrie Irvine said, his expression revealing that this was what he meant, before falling into a brief moment of thought.

"Miss Alice, please have a seat." Rudeus said with an awkward smile, inviting Alice to sit down.

This kid's reflexes are truly amazing. If he hadn't been sitting outside the attack range, Rudius might have already been sent flying by a single punch.

"Hmph!" Alice let out a dissatisfied snort, but after glancing at the thoughtful Kyrie Ian, she obediently sat down.

"Gilead, have you figured it out?" Rudeus asked.

"Yes," Kyrie Irvine nodded, "I used to need this when I was allocating the leftover food according to the number of days of the return journey, but unfortunately I failed back then."

As a result, I didn't eat or drink for three whole days on the way back, and I thought I was going to die.

Moreover, along the way, I was so hungry that I picked up monster droppings to eat, but ended up getting an upset stomach.

Just as I was enduring nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, a large group of monsters appeared around me —

Rudeus frowned slightly as he listened to Girenius's account. Eating shit was just too outrageous.

No wonder people think I'm an idiot.

Gilead's story was quite long, mentioning everything that happened afterward. Rudeus wanted to make a comment, or rather, pause and tell Gilead why he couldn't eat excrement.

However, seeing Alice's excited eyes shining, Rudeus chose to remain silent.

Rudius told a true story; he did not lie.

Moreover, only true stories, stories without personal interpretations, and stories that are not used as teaching methods can best capture Alice's interest.

This is a principle that Rudeus understood in his previous life.

He had seen and heard about this situation more than once.

Even my married classmates, who are the same age as me, are educating their children in this way.

This made Rudius feel very awkward, even a little angry, but he had no reason to interfere in the other party's education.

It can be said that Rudius had figured out a lot about education a very, very long time ago.

If stories are used as a means of education, frankly speaking, it's just perfunctory with children and is the most obvious sign of "disrespect" towards them.

They think they can fool the child because they don't understand, but then they turn around and ask why the child didn't listen.

In reality, children can definitely sense the "being educated" aspect of your teaching and will learn to lie and be perfunctory based on it.

And that's exactly what you taught him.

The fact that you can see this shows that you already possess the most precious quality for children: genuine respect.

Learning to read and do arithmetic isn't something that can't wait for me.

Establishing a good relationship with Alice is the most important thing.

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

However, I hope the young lady won't treat this as some kind of heroic tale. Oh well—as long as she doesn't imitate Gilead's behavior, it's fine if she treats it as a heroic tale.

The story lasted for five or six minutes. After Girenius finished speaking, he looked at Rudeus and said, "So I want to learn division. Please, Rudeus."

"Ah, okay, I'll teach you." Rudeus replied, then, noticing Alice's surprised look, he had a sudden idea and said to Kyrie Ian, "By the way, Kyrie Ian, could you please teach me Beast God Language?"

"Huh? Rudeus, are you going to learn the language of the Beast Gods?" Kyrie asked in surprise, as this wasn't one of the things Paul had asked him to do.

"Yes, when I grow up, I want to go and see the great forests of the continent of Milis. I heard that it's the territory of the beastmen," Rudeus added with a longing tone.

"What!?" Alice slammed her hand on the table again. "I want to go too!"

Rudeus smiled slightly. For Alice, who grew up with an entire family of orc maids, it was only natural that she liked orcs.

For her, the vast forest filled with beastmen must have been a paradise.

"What?" Rudeus feigned surprise as he looked at Alice. "Is Miss Alice also going to learn the Beast God Language?"

"What are you talking about?" Alice stared at Rudeus, dumbfounded. "When did I say I was going to learn the language of the Beast Gods?"

"But didn't the young lady say she was going to the Great Forest?" Rudeus asked, feigning ignorance.

"Why do we need to learn the Beast God's language to go to the Great Forest!?" Alice straightened up, crossed her arms, and looked at Rudeus. "Huh!?" Rudeus scratched his head, feigning confusion, then said as if he had figured it out, "Oh right, the young lady's family is very rich. We just need to hire a guide who knows the Beast God's language."

"What is a guide?" Alice asked Rudeus, who was explaining it to her.

"Uh," Rudeus choked for a moment, then explained, "A guide is a local, someone who is very familiar with the place. Of course, Miss can directly ask Kyrie Irvine to be her guide."

"That's right! I have Gilead's, that's enough!" Alice said, raising her chin again in a smug manner.

"While that would be fine too," Rudius added, "I still want to speak with the orcs myself."

Rudeus looked at Alice expectantly, hoping she would ask something, but unfortunately, Alice was too young to understand the motivation behind this vision. She simply looked at Rudeus with confusion and complained, "Isn't that too tiring?"

"Not at all," Rudius shook his head and added, "It's more fun this way."

"Hmph!" Alice said after sitting down, "Suit yourself!"

Rudius could sense that his relationship with Alice had eased considerably.

But we're far from being ready to teach yet. Let's continue our pleasant chat!

Rudeus continued, "Gilead, I heard you used to be in a party with Father. Has that adventure party disbanded?"

"There was discussion about whether to continue the operation with the remaining members, but Paul, who was in charge of guerrilla warfare, and Senis, the only healer in the team, had already left. Even if the team didn't disband, they would eventually go their separate ways," Kyrie Irvine explained.

Returning to the topic of adventurers, Alice listened with renewed interest, but given her limited experience, she couldn't even manage to ask questions.

Then Rudius will have to do it.

"Is Father an assistant to the guerrillas?" Rudeus asked, picking out the parts that interested him most.

"Yes, Paul will be the secondary tank and attacker," Gilead confirmed.

"May I ask about the team composition? How many people are in the team?"

"There are six people in total. The members are a warrior, a swordsman, a magician, a monk, and a thief," Kyrie Irwin explained.

"Is a warrior the same as a main tank?" Rudeus asked, based on his own understanding. Then, he asked about things he didn't understand, "What's the difference between a warrior and a swordsman?"

"Yes, warriors are main tanks." Kyrie Irgen first gave an affirmative answer, and then explained, "Only those whose weapon is a sword and who belong to one of the three major schools are swordsmen."

Others, those who don't belong to the three major schools but use swords, or those who belong to the three major schools but whose weapon isn't a sword, are warriors.

"I thought that apart from the Sword God Style and the Water God Style, the others were all Northern God Styles," Rudeus remarked.

Alice glanced at Kyrie and Rudeus alternately. She didn't quite understand what the main tank was saying, but she didn't want to interrupt their wonderful conversation.

Upon hearing the conclusions regarding warriors and swordsmen, the brows that had furrowed slightly due to not understanding relaxed again, and they began to look forward to what would follow.

"Now that the adventure team has disbanded, why don't you join another team?" Rudeus asked, picking up where the previous topic left off.

"That's because I can't do anything except fight," Gilead said, lost in his memories. "During my time as an adventurer, everything was handled by other people."

The buying and selling of equipment, food, various consumables, and daily necessities; contracts; maps; and signs.

Also, how heavy is the water bottle when it's full? Will it affect my stamina?

How to secure a fire source and how to start a fire for cooking.

Even in battle, the problem of being unable to fight flexibly because of holding a torch in the left hand —

I only realized how important these issues were after I was separated from my companions.

"So that's why you want to learn magic, is that it?" Rudeus looked enlightened and continued, "Once you learn water magic and fire magic, you can solve the most important problems of drinking water and fire."

After saying this, Rudeus used earth magic to conjure a cup, filled it with warm water, and handed it to Gilead.

"Oh, thank you." Kyrie Irving said, his eyes wide with surprise, his tail ceasing its wag. After taking a sip of water, he said, "Rudeus, you're really something. Is this some kind of incantationless magic?"

"Yes," Rudeus said with a smile, pouring another glass of warm water and handing it to Alice, who was staring at him in surprise. "Please, Miss."

"Is this magic?" Alice asked, looking at the water glass in her hand, puzzled.

"Yes, Miss," Rudius replied affirmatively, then made himself a glass of iced water.

Alice stared at the water glass in her hand for a long time, took a careful sip, and then looked at it again, as if to confirm that it really was water.

After taking a sip of water, Rudeus didn't explain much to Alice, but instead asked Kyrie, "Kyrie, why didn't you become an adventurer later?"

"Ah, that's because I'm bad at math and I often get cheated when I'm looking for money. Eventually, I was driven to desperation and was about to die when Lord Sauros saved me. To repay his kindness, I stayed here."

"I see," Rudeus nodded.

Time flew by in the midst of our casual conversation.
