Looking at the quiet and attentive eyes below the stage, Shami felt overwhelmed by the unexpected honor.
The progress was too smooth, making Shami feel a bit surreal.
"Teacher, I have a question to ask."
At this moment, people in the classroom began to raise their hands one after another.
"Please go ahead."
Shami indicated.
The questioner was an elderly maiden around fifty years old.
"According to the information I found, slime contains a large amount of substances similar to tree resin, but this resin is not ordinary; it is a special resin that causes creatures to go into heat."
Because it contains the Water of Life, the demon king mentally explained.
The elderly maiden looked at Shami.
"Tree resin is different from other plastic products; it's natural and harmless to the human body. Considering the unstable body structure of slime, does slime have huge potential in the female adult product industry?"
Shami opened her mouth but didn't immediately know how to answer.
Such a cute slime, and you're thinking of turning it into a famous product, huh?
"Teacher, question. Slime is generally a social creature. Have you ever attracted other slimes while raising one?"
"Teacher, question. Can slime breed with goblins, or is reproduction affected by isolation?"
Although before the class started, these mature students seemed just like ordinary elderly people.
Now, however, their questions were quite sharp and harsh. If Shami wasn't careful and let something slip, it might cause important information to leak.
As expected of the students of Wisdom Academy, they truly have strong thinking abilities.
Shami concentrated on the class, answering each question from the perspective of a breeder, combining truth and fiction to answer.
"Although slime is a social creature, according to my breeding experience, individual slimes can survive. While breeding slime, I have not seen traces of other slimes around the farm. As for slime × goblin or whatever, that goes beyond a breeder's knowledge."
Answering, Shami diverted everyone's attention and released the jelly from the pet box.
"This is the slime I've cultivated at the farm."
The jelly sat on the podium, immediately spotting Elze and Lureya at the back of the classroom, and began to act cute proficiently.
In the classroom, the elderly folks who had been seriously considering moments ago all leaned back in their chairs, gasping collectively.
What an adorable creature! It's even trying to act cute towards us!
"Teacher Edogawa, is this slime for sale?"
"I'll offer 100 gold coins."
"Sorry, it's absolutely not for sale."
At the back of the classroom.
The elf maiden propped her cheeks with both hands, gazing at Shami with infatuation, drooling as her mind was filled with thoughts unrelated to the class.
It seems that this serious-looking young teacher might not handle being teased too well?
What if a delinquent yellow-haired girl cornered him in the classroom after school; he might just act like a small fry~
The dragon race maiden was in a similar state, continuously daydreaming, but her concern was for the people around her.
"Elze, do you know which is the highest volcano on the Aireland Continent?"
At this moment, an old fellow sitting in the front row turned around with a mysterious smile, gazing at the dragon race maiden.
The dragon race maiden's whole body tensed up.
Here it comes again, the smile of the wise!
This smile had been haunting the dragon race maiden's thoughts for days, even appearing in her nightmares.
In the Wisdom Academy, it was common to see the old fellows discussing everything in the world, sharing their unique insights, inevitably generating many questions.
Therefore, it's common for someone to ask about unknown knowledge with a slightly raised corner of the mouth and a friendly smile.
These days, because of her nearly perfect scores in the luck exam, the dragon race maiden was regarded by Wisdom Academy as the most intelligent mind of the younger generation and had been asked more than twenty questions.
And the dragon race maiden, completely unsure of how to respond, could only feign illness and quickly escape.
Over time, the smile shown by the questioner when asking questions had been dubbed by the dragon race maiden as: the smile of the wise.
The smile of the wise: A smile that leaves you completely unsure if the other person genuinely doesn't know or is just testing your knowledge level to see you fail. — Elze's inner version
Now, in the classroom, there was no escape.
Who would know the world's highest volcano? She doesn't live there!
The dragon race maiden swallowed nervously.
"Ahuos Volcano..."
The elf maiden quietly whispered.
"Ahuos Volcano."
The old fellow turned wide-eyed in shock.
"I never expected Elze to even know this."
The old fellow turned back around, and the dragon race maiden wiped cold sweat from her tense hands.
It truly felt like everyone here regarded her as a walking encyclopedia brimming with knowledge!
"Thanks, Lureya..."
Elze glanced at the elf maiden beside her.
"Heehee, don't worry~"
The elf maiden lay on the desk, showing a toothy grin without a shred of dignity.
"I learned this when I was 15 in kindergarten, never thought I'd actually use it someday."
The dragon race maiden was momentarily dazed.
Wait, wasn't the goal of the Wisdom Academy's establishment to catch up with the knowledge-laden Elf Race and cultivate a wise one for the Human Race?
And now there was an elf right beside her.
This person was the true mobile library!
Elze looked at Lureya, as if she had been saved.
"Lureya, will you stay with me from now on?"
The elf maiden was momentarily dazed.
"Eh?"
"Let's attend this academy's classes together."
"No way, I don't want to be with this group of old uncles and aunts; just the generation gap is troublesome enough."
