《New World - New Beginning》Chapter 32: My Students' Doubts
Advertisement
After a scolding and a smack on the head, Siri explains to me that my job consists of training the students to be in the good physical condition and solve their doubts regarding their skills.
The first one is not difficult, but the second one is; fortunately, I read the skill books in the library, except for the attack ones because they were unavailable.
I'll make them repeat the same exercises I did in school and gym.
OK, from today, I will be your new instructor. We start with some stretching and then do a light jog.
But just as I want to do the stretches, a student raises his hand.
What's up? Um, excuse me, coach, if we do those exercises, we will be as strong as you. Yes, we will. Really?! Of course, we won't. Then why did you say yes. Because that's what you wanted to hear. …? I don't get it. *Sigh* Do you think you can get strong just by exercising? Doesn't it work that way? The exercise is to get you in good physical condition after that comes to the training.
With that said, I started stretching, some students do it, but others don't do it.
After finishing the stretching, I speak to the students again.
Alright, now we will do a 10-minute light jog. Those who don't want to do this can leave. Students: Huh? But know this, if you decide to leave now, you will never be able to come back to my class.
My statement leaves everyone stunned, as it seems it is the first time they see an instructor say these things, so they are silent for a few seconds until a girl raises her hand.
Coach, I don't think I should do this. And what is the reason? The regulations dictate that teachers must help their students if they have problems or doubts with their studies. Does it?
I quickly start thinking of a countermeasure for this. Some people like the senile older man may want to take advantage of this to attack me, so I must devise something to prevent this.
After a few seconds of thinking, an idea comes to me.
In that case, we'll do this.
I take out my notepad and start writing a document. These people know the terror of contracts.
All right! Those who don't want to be in my class will have to sign this contract! Students: What! Calm down. The contract reads as follows: The people who sign this contract make it clear that they do not want to be in Coach Marco Diaz's class, so they are no longer students of his class; therefore, the coach will have no obligation to give these students any supplementary classes or solve their problems or doubts of any kind, releasing him from any legal responsibility.
I let them read the document and gave them the pen to sign the contract. After a few seconds, the first boy came out to sign the document; 18 of the 30 students left, which I didn't care about.
Now, you have to sign this contract which states that you are my students and I am obligated to help you. Do we have to sign it? That's right, this is to avoid problems in the future.

The remaining 12 students begin to read the contract and sign it, so they are officially my students.
There now that this problem is solved let's start jogging.
I start jogging while the students follow me from behind, then Indis comes up behind me and starts talking.
Indis: Why did you do that? Do what? Indis: The contract thing, why did you make them sign that? Because I don't want to deal with that kind of student. Indis: Explain yourself. First of all, they are not children, so they should start to be responsible and make decisions thinking about the consequences. Besides, why should I try to teach a student who doesn't want to learn? It's ridiculous. If you are my student and want to learn, I will teach you, but if you don't want to be my student from the beginning, I won't waste my time with you. Indis: Don't you think you are a little cruel? If you want to be strong, you have to be cruel to yourself. Indis: You are weird. Tell me something I don't know. Indis: A person blinks about 25 thousand times a week. Huh? Oh well, I didn't know that.
We continue jogging after that small talk until 10 minutes have passed, and I stop. The students also stop and sit on the step to rest.
Take 2 minutes to recover. After that, we will do another activity. *aff* Coach *aff* will we do another exercise? In a way, yes, but not yet. I have to separate them first.
The students are confused when I tell them this. They seem to have no idea what this training is based on.
...
After 2 minutes, I stand up and tell them to group up.
Now then, first, raise your hand for those who fight at close range.
The students look at each other for a few moments until five boys and two girls raise their hands, five boys and two girls.
All right, you seven stand on the left side, I guess you five-fight at long range right. Yes! OK, now I'm going to solve the doubts regarding your profession. Keep in mind that I haven't got mine yet, but I have already defined the path I will take, so I'll try to help you as best as possible.
As soon as I finish saying that, the students begin to murmur among themselves. This lasts several minutes until a student raises her hand.
What is your question? What skill should I choose if I want to be a knight? That will depend on which direction you want to go if you are going to be a knight to attack or protect. I'd like to be both! In that case, you have to keep a few things in mind, knights wear heavy armor to withstand the blows, so you have to train your stamina to withstand as much. I understand. After that, let's go for the skill set you will need. There are two skills you are going to need if or if. The first is a charge or assault-type that can use effectively and defensively. How can an attack skill be used offensively? Because you will use it to prevent your opponent from hitting your teammates, let's say you are fighting with a monster and your teammate is behind you, supporting you with ranged attacks. Still, suddenly you notice that another monster wants to attack him. Using the charge or assault skill towards the other monster will provoke two possible results: the first is that the monster has to protect itself from your attack or receive the attack. But if that monster receives my attack and still wants to hit my partner, it won't do any good. That's where the second skill comes into play, "Aegis Shield," which will generate a shield that nullifies all attacks for 1 second. That second can be the difference between life and death. As for the other two skills, I recommend that you look for those that can help you enhance your power or eliminate some of your weaknesses. Keep in mind that the knights are slow, and their attacks are short-range, among other things.

After saying that, the student thanked me and began to think about what I had said. After that, another student approaches me.
Coach, I have a question regarding my ability "Punch." And what does it do? It makes a hole in the opponent's body, and its reuse is 20 seconds. I don't see any use for this skill. And what profession do you want? Berserker, eh...
I remain silent for a few seconds while I think about the plan of action if I were the one to take that action.
I have two ideas, but I don't know if you would like them. What are they? The first one is that if you want to be a berserker, you change your ax for a halberd. With this one, you can take advantage of your "Punch" skill better, to the point that you could use it to damage the joints of your opponents' armor or open wounds in armored monsters. And the second option? The second option is to remove that skill by obtaining the "Warlord" profession. Although it is not the same as the "Berserker," you will have the option to remove your "Punch" skill, and you will also be able to use the ax and other weapons. Isn't there a third option? Maybe there is, but as I said, I can only think of those two ideas if you can find another way. I would like to hear from you. Thank you very much, coach.
After that other talk, the students started to ask me questions of all kinds, whether it was about skills, professions, combinations, pets, etc.
I tried to use my imagination and knowledge of the skills, professions, and monsters that I read in the library, hoping that it could help them to solve their doubts, which worked. Everyone showed a happy expression when I solved their doubts. As for Indis, her doubt is still about her skill.
OK, now I will distribute a training routine for each of you. Keep in mind that you must not skip any exercise, eat healthily and take appropriate breaks. Remember that everything in excess is bad. Is that clear? YES! I also recommend that you mock battles with each other, know your enemy and know yourself. This is the only way you can improve.
Having said all that, I begin to distribute the exercise routine to each of my students. I also tell them that if they have any questions, they can find me in the library from 13:00 until 18:00.
That ends today's class, but my work is not over yet. I start walking to the secretary to give her the contracts that the students have just signed.
Some students may complain that they are not receiving classes and complain to the other teachers, arguing that I don't want to give them classes. That's when I will take this document to show my innocence.
Once I get to the secretary's office, I knock on the door to be let in.
Siri: Come in. Hello Siri. Siri: ...now what did you do? Why do you think I did something? Siri: Because you've come to this place for trouble for this week. If you think about it carefully, I am the victim in all cases. Siri: *sigh* what do you want. I would like you to legalize these documents. Siri: Documents? For what? It's a contract between myself and the students who don't want to be in my class. Siri: MARCO! Wait! Let me explain! Siri: Explain what! First, put that chair down!
After Siri put the chair down, I explained the situation and why I made the students sign this contract.
Siri: I see... you want to have a backup to protect yourself from the teachers and students who rejected your training. That's right. Siri: And what will you do with the students who don't want to be in your class? Nothing. Siri: What? I'll let them see the results of my training from the students who did agree to let me be their trainer. Siri: I don't understand. Think of it this way: if you see your classmates start to get stronger, you want to find out how they did it, right? Siri: Absolutely. When they find out that it was because of my training, they will want to return to my class to avoid falling behind their classmates. Still, by signing that contract, they can no longer enter, so they will complain to you or the other teachers that I am in breach of my obligations. That is when you will show the contract they signed. Siri: And after that? Tell them that you will hire another adventurer, but also tell them they must sign a contract to accept him as their trainer. Siri: And if they don't. They will. Siri: How are you so sure about that. They already missed one chance, and they can't miss this one. Siri: You planned all this in just a few minutes? Yeah, it's even scary.

Father of Monsters
Earth and all of humanity is gone. like completely and utterly blown to cosmic space dust gone. Only one human managed to survive by pure luck of the draw. Leon Castro was pretty much your average joe. White guy, 5’11, brown eyes, dirty blond hair, and weighing in at around 160lbs. He was a guy with dreams of making it big someday in the future but having no real plan as to how he was going to achieve it. But Leon did have one thing going for him. He’d found a niche on the internet making videos that had gotten him quite a big following in the past year or so. Enough so that he could use the ad revenue to continue making those videos and not have to work another job to keep his tiny little apartment in Norfolk Virginia. The content of his videos was quite easily summed up in just a few words… Theoretical Monster Biology.This was the guy who survived. Transported to another world, where magic, a vaguely game like System, and Dungeons are a thing. (Warning) This is a first draft that has not been edited in any way. Directly from brain to word document. there is very little gore or sexual content early on but there will be. hence the tags. Cover Art was done by GGmadude over on the Discord.
