Chapter 942 - A Great Lecturer

Within the auditorium, some stood by the door, staring at the hallway, to be on high alert when their lecturer came in.

Others just sat and stood in groups, discussing their assignments, fun theories and so on... While some were busy reading books from the First floor of the Academy library.

That was the only floor that allowed people to check out books.

With the other floors, one had to show their I.D’s and be a Baymardian citizen. There were even security guards who checked those going in and those going out, including checking what was in their bags, pockets and so on.

It was as if they were going through a mini-port security check.

Anyway, some people just sat in silence reading their books, while others started doing their assignments.

But no matter what everyone did or spoke about, it all involved the weather.

These men were all dedicated people who had been working in their respective empires for years.

In this era where knowledge was money, people genuinely didn’t play around.

They studied hard and fought to be the best for their family’s income and so on.

Plus, because of how important their jobs were, their lives were always at stake.

If someone planned to have a war, and they predicted the weather or stars wrong, leading to the loss of their knights, then they might face the wrath of the noble that paid for their assistance.

Their lives and families were always at stake.

So an ignorant person in their profession who refused to study was undoubtedly seen as a fool and a madman.

Again, some assassin guilds and even some nobles often kidnapped them, forcing them to work full-time for their forces.

Their jobs weren’t easy.

Nonetheless, even with all the danger surrounding their profession, they genuinely loved their jobs.

So now that they could acquire more knowledge, their excitement went off the roof.

How could they not?

These middle-aged men were so happy that they began fidgeting on their seats.

.

"Are you sure you saw him?

You know, at your age, you might’ve seen a tree from afar and called it a person."

"Screw you!

What do you mean by that?

I’m only 38 years old.

So are you trying to imply that I’m an old man just because you’re 28 or something?"

"Alright. Alright.

Everyone. Let’s not make the old man angry. He said he saw his majesty, so he probably did."

"Hmm.

I can’t wait for the lecture to begin.

I heard from lecturer Bowin that it was his majesty himself who taught him a while back."

"I’ll go! I heard that too.

It’s also said that his majesty’s brain is a rare one that can absorb and spit out information like nothing else."

"Of course it is! Who else could create such heavenly books in the library?

Damn. After reading just a few pages, I almost shed tears in awe at how detailed and heaven-defying the books were.

There were even pictures in them that showed what some things were."

"God! Am I going to be okay attending the class of such a godly person who can make those books?"

"Ahh... Why didn’t I wear my best outfit today? Do you think that this one makes me look unserious?"

(:*0*:)

Everyone spoke enthusiastically about today’s lecture.

And soon, some students standing by one of the doors at the bottom of the large auditorium, hastily rushed towards their seats.

"Everyone, everyone!

His majesty is coming; his majesty is coming!"

Eh?

His majesty here?

In a flash, everyone took like seats, sat up straight and took big breaths to calm themselves down.

Now, they looked nothing like their former selves, as they sat in complete silence like good scholars.

Catchack!

Below the auditorium, one of the side doors opened, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Heavens! He was really here!

No, they had to act cool and composed.

.

Landon stepped in, smiled and headed towards the lecturer podium and desk before him.

Of course, overseer Yusha tagged along too.

"Good morning, your majesty!"

"Good morning, everyone," Landon replied while gesturing for them to take their seats and relax.

He spent a few minutes putting on the speaker and microphone before bringing out his notebook from his bag.

He also took out his chalk and other teaching materials before smiling at the many faces looking at him.

"Everyone, Welcome to ATM S 106: Climate and Climate Change."

(***ATM S, means Atmospheric Science.)

"Now, I know that for over a month now, all if you already have a general idea of what the atmosphere is like.

You all should’ve already been taking Hert 101, introducing the origin and evolution of Hertfilia and the solar system... as well as plate tectonics and rock cycles.

In that course, many of you should’ve already been given single energy balances and interactions between the sun’s radiation and the atmosphere, land, oceans, ice masses and so on.

In short, the planet’s layers, like its crusts and so on... Should’ve already been briefly explained through the course.

How can one predict the weather without knowing how the weather affects our planet?"

Everyone nodded their leads in agreement that they did take the course.

Landon looked at them and smiled.

"Again, you all should’ve also taken ATM S 100 on weather in general.

You should’ve been taught about the types of clouds, jet streams, highs, lows, thunderstorms, hail, acid rain, and so on.

But that’s not all I expect from you.

So far, most, if not all of you, should’ve already registered for at least 5 courses for the semester, which would all be beneficial for today’s lectures on Climate and its changes.

Oh, and just a reminder, since your general mid-term examination is next week, it won’t be possible to have any mid-tests for this course."

No mid-term?

Many people smiled subconsciously.

Some had registered for 6 courses and even 7 this semester, some of which were only 1 or 2 credits.

Nonetheless, they were really swamped and felt stressed.

So with no midterm on this course, their hearts leaped in the air as they felt like they were floating on clouds.

Hey! This week had been rough on them, with some reading overnight.

They had never studied so much in their lives.

Each day, the library was filled with people who tried to absorb as much as they could.

No mid-term. Great!

Many leaned back on their seats merrily while thanking their lucky stars.

But since when have lecturers ever given their students a good time?

Why take so many courses if one can’t handle it?

This would be a lesson for them going forward.

One should always cut their coats according to their sizes.

Landon looked at their expressions and chuckled.

"Even though there won’t be any mid-term, it’s a bit too early for some of you to smile because from now on, every 2 weeks, we will have a quiz.

Isn’t that great?"

--Silence--
