Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Looking at Old John, who was old but not weaker than the young people, Charlot was silent for a moment.
“Old John, if I establish a magic academy in the future, would you… be willing to come and be the first batch of students of the Magic Academy?”
“If it’s possible, you can stay there and become a teacher!”
Charlot had thought about this matter carefully.
With his guidance, cultivating ordinary magic did not require too much talent.
Moreover, he could not teach the new students all day long.
In this way, it was very important to have a large group of people who would sincerely help him.
Because of the uniqueness and strength of magic, Charlot was not at ease to teach those destructive magic to people he was not familiar with!
The most important factor for someone to become a teacher in his magic academy was not talent, but kindness!
These old people in the nursing home had been with Charlot for more than two years. Charlot trusted their characters.
As for the care workers, after the Magic Academy was officially established, he wanted to call them over!
At that time, he only needed to teach this group of elders and let them continue to teach others!
What the system required was only people’s faith in magic, not Charlot’s faith!
Even if he did not teach them personally, the number of believers in magic would steadily increase!
After saying that, Charlot quietly looked at the group of elders in front of him.
All of them were stunned!
They were mostly elderly people who were alone and had no children. When they were young, their businesses failed or their lives were not satisfactory. In the end, they had no one to support them in their old age.
Before entering the nursing home, some of them were picking garbage, some were begging, and some had lived off the leftovers from restaurants.
It was no exaggeration to say that every old man here had experienced a bitter past that ordinary people could not bear!
But now, Charlot said that they could actually become university staff or even teachers?!
In other words, they could rely on their own hands and this old body to live a decent life?
“Xiao Xia, what you said…”
“Xiao Xia, are you joking with us?”
“We are already so old. Can we still do a good job?”
All the old people did not care about salary, remuneration, or future. They were all worried that they would not be able to do a good job!
Especially Old John. He frowned and looked at Charlot seriously as he said loudly.
“Xiao Xia, this is not a joke!”
“Old men like us are about to die. How can we be the teachers in your new Magic Academy?”
“That is what important people should do!”
“If you think that old men like us are still useful, you can arrange for us to guard the gate, clean the cafeteria, and the dorms. We old men can still do these jobs well!”
“Old John is right. We can’t hold Xiao Xia back!”
“That’s right! When I was young, I was an auxiliary police. Let me guard the gate. There won’t be any thieves!”
“Haha, Xiao Xia, Old John is right. You can arrange it this way!”
Listening to the hearty and warm laughter of the old men, Charlot was touched.
How could he not see that even Old John’s eyes were glowing when he heard him say that the old men could be teachers of the Magic Academy?
That was, after experiencing the painful past that ordinary people could not bear, after seeing through the prosperity and decay of the world, he still retained the purest thing about hid identity as a “person”.
His original intention!
What the elders cared about was not status, power, or money at all.
Instead, it was being able to play a role for the rest of their lives!
They cautiously questioned themselves, questioning whether they were qualified to be a magic instructor.
And the final conclusion they came to was that they were already old and could no longer shine in the “magic tutor” job that only “big shots” could do!
So, they felt inferior. As long as Charlot could give them a job guarding the gate and cleaning the cafeteria, they would be satisfied!
This was a person’s purest and most precious thing!
“Old John!”
Charlot roared and then looked at the other old people. Their eyes were filled with joy, yearning, and hidden deep losst. Charlot saw it all.
“And the others, old grandpas and grandmas.”
“I’ve been with everyone for two years. I trust your character!”
“Just like today, when you heard that I was under house arrest, even if you were old, you were willing to run over and confront those unreasonable soldiers with guns!”
“I, Charlot, will remember this friendship in my heart!”
Charlot’s words made many old men’s eyes wet.
When they came over, they might not have thought so much, but in the end, what they did was recognized by others…
They had not experienced this feeling for decades!
“The world of magic is coming. Everyone, you are getting old and your bodies are not flexible and strong enough.”
“But!”
“Magic! Magic is magical!”
“In the world of magic, are you willing to die in old age? Are you willing to be an ordinary person?”
“Old John, if I remember correctly, you should be seventy-eight years old this year, but in my opinion, you still have at least a hundred years to live!”
Charlot said loudly, with a confident expression on his face and an arrogant tone in his voice!
“As for what everyone has said, a magic teacher is a job that only a big shot can take on.”
“That’s right, a magic teacher is indeed a big shot!”
“And you guys are the big shots of the future!”
“Talent? Old Age?” Charlot chuckled, his confident expression almost infected everyone.
“In my opinion, it’s not worth mentioning!”
After those words, the entire place was completely silent.
Other than the old people who had just been besieged, there were also some other old people who had finished eating and came over.
They were the group of people who had been taught magic by Charlot.
At this moment, they came to the back of the crowd. They did not make a sound, but quietly listened to Charlot’s words.
“With me, Charlot, being here, even if you don’t have any talent, I will make you grand mages, sorcerers, and even magisters!”
“You’re old? Magic will transform your bodies. In the future, each and every one of you will be stronger and healthier than the soldiers just now!”
“Now, let me ask you again. Are you willing to come to my magic academy and become my first batch of students? In the future, you can stay in my magic academy and help me teach the other students.”
For a moment, no one said anything.
However, when Charlot glanced over, he saw that many of the old men’s eyes were already dripping with muddy tears.
They had experienced the prosperity of the world, and also the painful past.
Now, tremendous luck was in front of them, but no one dare to take it.
