Alright, this time Samael, in order not to delay the mealtime, simply let the students process the venison while listening to his rambling.

"They are both right. However, this is only one aspect. Everything needs to be discussed in detail."

The ancient snake took the teaching baton, rhythmically clapping its hands as it paced around the students, offering quiet reminders.

"Imagine you've eaten your fill and are lying on the ground sunbathing when a rabbit accidentally wanders into your territory, passes by you, and wakes you up."

"At this moment, you remember what Teacher Themis said, restrain your morning grumpiness, don't slap it into a pulp, ignore the so-called offense, and let the rabbit roam freely, hopping around or leaving. This is called kindness and generosity."

As he spoke, Samael glanced at the Hydra, Cerberus, Chimera, and other mythical creatures, noticing that they listened intently and nodded thoughtfully, which struck him as quite meaningful.

Good, that will save you from causing trouble for passersby and getting ganged up on by heroes in the future.

"If you are hungry and need to eat, follow Teacher Ma's method: hunt wild animals without abusing them or excessively damaging the ecosystem. Respect their contributions. This is how you show reverence for yourself."

"If you're starving to death, and you can even taste meat in a rock, you'd eat any roe deer, let alone a roe deer with its cubs. That's called emergency evasion!"

"If you encounter a formidable enemy, then hold nothing back. Use whatever moves work and go all out to defeat them!"

"When everyone's risking their lives, who cares about restraint, mercy, or respect? That's just brain-dead!"

"Don't back down in this situation. If you're worried about being scolded by Teacher Ma and Themis, I'll take the blame!"

The ancient snake swayed with a smile, its face radiating righteous indignation.

"Woof!"

"Roar!"

"Awooo!"

"Hiss!"

The students, who were surrounded by wilder mythical creatures such as hunting dogs, Dragon Kind, lions, and snakes, were filled with excitement and had an urge to pick a fight on the spot.

That's more like it. Eat and drink as you please, don't worry about small things. After all, it would be beneath us to bully these ordinary species that have no ability to fight back, just because we rely on our bloodline.

If someone dares to cause trouble and mess with them, then they'll be even more "suitable" for you, right?

The Typhon's Offspring, grinning menacingly, unleashed their boundless energy and their fearless ferocity.

"Work hard, and perhaps one day you will grow into beings that surpass the gods."

Samael gave a few words of encouragement and was just about to walk onto the podium when it was lunchtime.

Anna pursed her cherry lips, looked at her shouting brothers and sisters, and shook her head slightly.

"Teacher, we are just gods and monsters. Our divinity is inherently flawed. Many of us can't even speak properly. In the eyes of the gods, we are often just powerful beasts."

Samael knew that this was Anna's pessimism at work again, and couldn't help but smile.

"Since I'm bored, let me tell you a story about listening to babbling..."

Bored out of their minds, the students became interested when they heard this, and while preparing food, they listened attentively.

The ancient snake glanced into the depths of the forest, stroked its chin, and smiled.

"Legend has it that during the time of the Titan Gods, Cronus, after getting drunk, asked, 'What animal in the world is the most cruel and despicable?'"

"They are wolves!" a deity replied from below. "They are cunning and foolish; they can even eat their own kind alive!"

Some of the intoxicated Cronus then became interested and suggested to the gods, "Why don't we take a wolf up the mountain, allow it to live there, let it be influenced by divine will, receive divine teachings, and change its bad habits and character?"

The gods unanimously agreed, and so they took a wolf that had just eaten its own kind for food to Mount Othrys, and generously allowed it to enjoy the feast and watch the fighting and dueling while drinking.

As soon as the feast ended, the wolf left a message, refusing to stay on the mountain, and hurriedly ran back to the forest at the foot of the mountain.

Can you guess what it said?

The crowd chattered and offered their guesses, but Samael smiled, shook his head, and announced the answer with a playful expression.

"The wolf said, 'The gods are terrifying!'"

"They don't eat their own kind, yet they kill so many of them!"

"The bones and flesh on their plates are more than we hunt in a month!"

As the ancient serpent pondered with feigned seriousness, the students were taken aback for a moment, then quickly understood its meaning, and couldn't help but smile, bursting with joy.

After the laughter subsided, the Gorgon Sisters, who were the most intellectually complete, and the wise Athena, understood the unspoken meaning and couldn't help but ponder it.

Therefore, compared to that old wolf struggling to survive, the Titan King devoured his own offspring for power was far superior.

Who is more noble, and who is more barbaric?

The so-called noble and sublime aura of gods has been stripped away by this biting and sarcastic joke.

Mount Olympus, with its eleven pillars of light, has shed its sacred shell and is now nothing more than a place inhabited by powerful beings.

As the students, whose spirits had been subtly lifted, dispersed, they gathered around the campfire to enjoy their hunting feast.

The smug mentor pressed his fair fingers against Samael's right shoulder blade, asking a calm yet curious question that reached Samael's ears.

"How come I didn't know that Mount Othrys had ever hosted a feast for such a wolf?"

The ancient serpent glanced at Themis, who stood calmly to the side, and felt a chill run down its spine for no apparent reason.

"I'd also like to know, when did His Majesty Cronus ever do such a thing?"

At the same time, before Samael could even manage a dry laugh and come up with his defense, misfortune struck again when the centaur sage approached, drawing his bowstring with a meaningful look in his eyes.

"It's just a legend! It's just a story, so let's just have some fun and not take it seriously!"

The ancient snake broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly raised its hand to explain.

What's all this about? I was just telling a fable to enlighten the students.

In a moment of folly, the emperor chose Cronus and the gods of Mount Othrys as a cautionary tale.

The problem is that the person next to him is one of the ten Titan Gods who are listed on Mount Othrys.

The Teacher Ma, is actually Cronus's son...

Serves you right for being so foul-mouthed! You even got yourself mocked by two people at once!

Looking at the two people's friendly smiles, the one who had been caught red-handed spreading rumors felt like crying but had no tears left.

While eating meat and snacks, the students, watching from afar, made all sorts of calls, demanding that the food be included in their daily entertainment.

Pankrasin!

Pankrasin!

Pankrasin!

A bunch of heartless brats! Samael, who was being roasted over a fire, glared at the faces that shouted the loudest and wrote their names down.

Then, the ancient snake helplessly turned to look at the centaur Kenshin, who was flexing his wrists on the opposite side, with a distressed expression.

"Friendship first, competition second, right?"

"Can..."

The moment Chiron finished speaking, he charged forward at lightning speed.

"Holy crap! Not only was it a sneak attack, but it also involved kicking with your hooves! Teacher Ma, you have no sportsmanship!"

Samael was caught off guard and overwhelmed by Chiron's two hands and two front hooves attacking him, and he cursed incessantly.
