Chapter 173 Special Class
The day of the first class has finally arrived. Since everyone in Vincent's batch is quite special, they were all sent to various departments or classes and would only meet in one class which was the Arcane Mysteries class.
It is all because the teaching method is just too different from other instructors.
Vincent observed his batch with his senses… Well, he can only sense 3 meters around him and he is also being assisted by an attendant since he's still blind so he could barely feel their presence. He even needed the attendant's help to describe his classmates.
'So there are three blind, two mutes, two with missing arms, a crippled young man… and a few others with some issues with their brain?'
Vincent couldn't help but sigh after being included with this group. It's really a special education curriculum…
However, he couldn't blame Professor Turhan since no matter how skilled he was in battle, he is still blind and can't read the texts written in the book.
He can only learn through the method of the eccentric professor like the others here. In addition, he also learned that these people have special talents that the Black Tower values. Based on what Turhan hinted to him, all these people have gifts comparable to Tier 4 Mana Art!
It means that a part of their body has been blessed and received a talent similar to Mystic Eye or Hands…
Soon, their batch was brought to Arcane Mysteries Hall where the Professor is living…
As soon as they entered, the attendants assigned to each of them left silently.
After a few seconds, someone suddenly spoke and even deaf could probably hear her voice…
"I'm Professor Levent who will be teaching you all about the Arcane Mysteries… I know that all of you have talents or gifts that made you special. I congratulate all of you since, with my teachings, your disability wouldn't be a complete hindrance if you have the desire to live and learn…"
The voice came from a middle-aged woman who had just directly spoken to their mind.
That's right, her voice wasn't transmitted to their ears but through their minds!
Even Vincent didn't expect this at all although Professor Turhan already made a few hints. It was simply because he had never heard of telepathy being used even in the Tudor Kingdom.
At most, he thought that the teaching method of the professor would be similar to the Memory Connection Stone where they have to use a medium to get their soul to a different place and study.
What's even more surprising is that all the students were actually connected and could speak with everyone! The whole class was able to join this mind network!
"Is this also one of the Arcane Mysteries? Or perhaps, you're using a Magic Artifact?" One of the students asked the Professor.
"No. It's a gift I received when I was born. You can think of this as another Tier 4 Mana Art…"
"What? It's considered a Tier 4 Mana Art? Does it mean that there is a method to learn this?"
"Of course… As far as I know, all gifts or talents you were born with have corresponding Tier 4 or Tier 5 Mana Arts. If you have enough merits, you can learn this Tier 4 Telepathy Art in the Mana Arts and Martial Techniques Hall. The Black Tower has hundreds of Tier 4 Mana Arts that you could choose from… There is even one where you can project your image in someone's mind aside from your voice." Professor Levent answered patiently.
She's already used to this kind of reaction since even though this technique is very useful, not many would learn it. Well, Telepathy Art is quite difficult to learn unless you have a top-grade talent.
Vincent only listened silently as he tried to sense the Professor's location. Unfortunately, he's unable to find her with his limited senses right now.
He'd really have to rely on his walking cane this time if he plans to get closer to her.
"Any more questions about me?" Professor Levent asked.
"If there's none, I would like everyone to introduce themselves… Since I shared the details of my talent with you all, you have to share yours as well."
With this, a few of them hesitated but it didn't take long before some of them realized that this is indeed essential for a harmonious class.
"I'm… I'm Guven… C-can you hear me? I'm supposedly mute…" As soon as he said this, everyone immediately realized why he sounded very shy…
"Yes, we can hear you…"
"G-great! Awesome! Ohh, right! My gift… I was born with a Mystic Eye… I can tell whether a person lies if I activate it… Unfortunately, I can only use it once a day and—"
"You don't have to reveal too much about your gift, Guven…" Levent reminded.
With this reminder, the introduction continued.
"I'm Sener… Although I'm blind, I have awakened my sixth sense."
"I'm Esra. I was able to previously walk until I had an accident. Anyway, I'm Alchemist focusing on potion and pill making."
…
"I'm Vincent… Blind. A 3-Star Aura Knight."
"I'm Tulin. I can see dead people. No one believes me."
"…"
The introduction was quickly finished.
Vincent couldn't help but be impressed at how diverse this special class was.
Anyway, the real class finally started after this…
Professor Levent introduced to them the Knowledge Base Crystal within the hall.
There were a total of 30 crystals inside and each of them can use one. The crystal contains many books they could read regarding the Arcane Mysteries.
However, it wasn't just that.
"This class isn't just a place to study how Mana Arts or Aura Skills works… We are also studying the mysteries of the world..."
"Mysteries of the world?" They repeated.
Although they are excited to browse the knowledge base crystal, the topic of the mystery of the world caught their attention.
Is there some kind of mystery to this world? Why does it have to be studied?
Seeing that they started becoming interested, Professor Levent continued.
"Yes… After all, our world appears to be very attractive to otherworldly beings. Why do you think the Celestial Beings and their enemies, the Demihumans, are here?"
