Chapter 1972: Finally, The Supposed Discussion -Part 7

"I will need some time to digest what you said. I can pass the floor to the other department." Pei said that she wanted to know the feasibility of such a system to be implemented into the coalition of cities. There was no need to work out the details right now as that was for her minions to think about it. And when she meant minions, she merely meant as those workers under her control.

She believed in the power of segregating all the work apart so that each one only handles a particular item on the agenda. Only when they were done with it, someone or a few of the leading team members would put them all together. This will quicken the process by a lot but truth be told, it does not provide the best quality despite the efficiency.

Her minions still had to communicate with each other in order to make sure the module of work they were doing made some sense. So, the ones who had the most headache were the leaders of such teams assigned to have their work compartmentalised. Yet, this was what their boss demanded and they could only listen to her.

But the good thing about working under Pei was that they also had unlimited access to the System and the use of its resources to build what they wished to build. Surely, the objectives had been compartmentalised, but anyone who had a brain cell or two would know that they could also collaborate behind her back to make sure that things made sense.

Thankfully, it was not just an individual or two who thought way and it was the majority of the group that was able to act selflessly. The main drive was that those who believed to do poorly in the previous project were not kicked or fired. Instead, they were given the opportunity to shine as group leaders.

So, the people who they believed had slacked during the course of the previous project had been assigned to the worst task of all. At first, her team thought that this was just one such occasion. But the longer they work with her, the more they realised this is the way she 'punishes' the worst performers.

This was because those who could access to the System meant that they were already one step in Jin's bubble of actual monsters.

The only difference was that while Jin technically owned them due to the contract they had signed, thinking that Pei owned them, the Dungeon Supplier had so far not stooped so low to take them out to battle. If they were assigned as administrative staff hired by Pei, he would do his best not to even touch a single strand of their hair.

Yet, Jin was suddenly afraid of the immense undertaking of the job that Pei's workers would be handling. He knew that he said that proposal of the new system because it was something that might be money saving in the long run while enabling them to have some access to the funds from the citizens to do some additional investments.

And if those investments bear fruit with the aid of Claire's consistent killings in the black stock market, they would be able to gain some extra capital to do things that might change or overhaul the cities.

However, since Jin had already blurted that idea out, he had no choice but to stick with that and could only hope there was salvation ahead for Pei's workers. "Perhaps, I should butt in and give them a vacation once their project was done…"

"You should not. You know Pei hates it when someone tried to even dares to think of interfering." Kiyu sent a chi telepathy message to Jin and when he turned to see her, she was already side eyeing to prevent proper contact with the System User in order not to let Pei to have any suspicions.

"Aye, there is no way things will go smoothly for them…" Jin thought and decided that it was best to just move to the next agenda. "I guess Itori, you can finally go ahead with your proposal."

"As you know, the Demons only knew how to fight. Unless their families had a particular trade or skill set that was deemed to be important, those skills would only be inherited by their family members and no one else. For they believed that such skillsets are their tools for surviving in Demopolis." Itori started strong in her proposal.

It seemed like she had practiced this a little before this discussion.

"But that is when Baal was still at the top and partially brainwashed by Kiva and his stupid greedy crown. Now, Demopolis is under your administration even though it is being run by us foxes.

So, we believed that it is time to have a proper education system to not only teach fighting skills to those demons but also technical skills necessary for the survival of not just the Demons growing up but also the city."

"Surely, you are not going to put fighting as just 'part' of the curriculum, right?" Ixel asked as he expressed concern if the Demons would be useless in a fight when push came to shove. For now, people do not dare to come near Demopolis as well as the Seven Cities mainly due to the fact that Baal was still alive and rumoured to be within the city premises.

He was after all one hell of a conqueror when it comes to pillaging other territories and fending off attackers before they could even be within ten miles of Demopolis' walls.

It was also the reason why the Seven Cities dared to attack Demopolis under the Church's banner mainly due to the fact that they believed Baal had been taken prisoner by the victor. Without Baal the Demon conqueror to be on the frontlines of Demopolis, the Seven Cities became shameless attacking the group.

But when they found that the victors were not just lucky in defeating the Demon Army, it was not just some one trick pony. They managed to overturn the might of seven cities so quickly that the rest of the cities and guilds had decided not to touch Demopolis and Pandapolis for the time being despite the vulnerabilities being so visibly open for them to exploit.

In fact, it was to the point that it was practically inviting or maybe begging them to come and raid Demopolis.

Only a few stupid ignorant medium sized guilds who did not know the latest information about Demopolis had decided to do just that and ended up being annihilated almost instantly. The fight was so fast that even observers who were looking or spying at Demopolis could get a glimpse of the fight. It was as if the guild entered and no sound was made when they pulled through at the gates.

This blocked the spies, onlookers, and other observers' vision of what truly happened but since they never heard of those guilds since then, they could assume the worse for them.

"And thus, the Education Department had proposed the creation of technical schools along with the standard schooling that we are proposing. In fact, there is a chance we might just do a big copy and paste from the JODE Exorcism curriculum." Itori said and Jin could not help but to chuckle at that proposal.

"You don't mean to say that those Demons will get to learn the very things that could potentially kill them?"

"And if they don't die? What does not kill them, makes them stronger, no? After all, the demons in Demopolis aren't the only demons residing in this world.

They just so happened to be the few largest groups of demons that congregated in this particular city- well under Rex's rule now, it's a military fortress city but you get my point." Itori asked and Jin could not refute that sentence if she used the analogy to such an extent.

"Then, what do we call these demons? Demon Exorcists Demons? Or just Demon Exorcists, with the emphasis on the word Demon so that they were classified as Exorcists?" Jin asked to make fun of Itori even though she was being serious about the conversation.

"If you have a better idea of what to teach, then why don't you come out of the curriculum?" Itori said with such spite that Jin decided to back off, knowing that what he said must have gone overboard. Only the Foxes knew that she merely had a short fuse and not to mess with her when she was angry.

"Alright, we will stick to that but I would ask that you take the most updated curriculum from the JODE school instance that we are currently hosting. They had taken into account fighting against humans as well, so this should be an all rounded-"

"I already did that, you don't have to remind me about it. Not to mention, I did have a hand in the curriculum that was created so do not think I am merely recommending this for the fun of it," Itori remarked harshly and Jin decided to keep his mouth shut. Perhaps, it was best for Rex to take over.
