What Are You Pretending For? You're All Beasts

In front of the Arimar Cave, Chiron rang the bronze bell hanging on the tree branch, and the Typhon's Offspring the students went to their respective classrooms, sat obediently, and waited for today's lecture.

"The first class this morning was my [Herbalism Identification], the second class was Professor Samael's [Wilderness Hunting Practice], the third class was Professor Themis's [The Spirit of Law], and in the afternoon..."

Well, of the three classes this morning, although two were rather dry theoretical classes, the herbalism class was relatively easy. And today's law class, which involves a mock courtroom, is quite novel.

As for the afternoon, it's still okay.

The Typhon's Offspring nodded repeatedly, their faces beaming with joy.

We're all restless beasts. If we hadn't been beaten up, who would be willing to suppress our nature and learn some kind of lewd class?

Having barely endured the ordeal of identifying and concocting hemostatic herbs, antidotes, and energy-restoring medicines, and having dedicated myself to practice, swallowing a mouthful of bitterness, I finally made it through the end of get out of class.

After 15 minutes of fun, when the school bell rang again, the Typhon's Offspring were surprised to see their beloved Teacher Ma, standing on the podium.

"Your teacher, Samael, is taking a few days off due to overwork. The [Wilderness Hunting Practice] session will be replaced with [Biological Structure Explanation]..."

"Come on, open your handouts..."

Chiron hung up the human anatomy diagrams drawn on parchment and began his lesson, causing the Typhon's Offspring, who were waiting for their field lessons, to collapse in despair.

Euryale and Stheno, sitting side by side, glanced at the empty seats belonging to Athena Medusa, and for some reason, a sense of foreboding arose within them.

The third period.

"Your teacher Themis said she has a stomachache today, so law class has been changed to philosophical speculation class..."

The first class in the afternoon.

"Your teacher, Tina..."

"She also has a stomachache?"

Stheno's expression was strange, and he opened his lips to ask...

"She went away for further studies, and the handicraft class was changed to a surgery class, with each student responsible for bandaging an injured rabbit..."

Next, in the first section... Teacher Ma ...

The third section... Teacher Ma ...

The expressions of the Typhon's Offspring had changed from initial anticipation to surprise, and finally to numbness.

"They all have things to do, so you're the only one left, right?"

As class was about to end, Euryale raised her slender arm, asking a question while tugging at her long purple hair, looking somewhat dejected.

"Uh, that's right..."

Chiron paused his explanation of the stars and nodded helplessly.

"Then why not just say so directly, instead of making us wait in vain?"

"Well, we should at least show some respect and go through the motions..."

Chiron glanced at the students, who were complaining slightly, and coughed lightly.

"This semester, that guy has been suffering from headaches and fevers, or indigestion. What's even more ridiculous is that he has excuses like being too sleepy after eating and needing to catch up on sleep?"

"He runs away faster than the students after class, has an overwhelming amount of homework, and is always sick after one shift of work. It's outrageous!"

Euryale frowned and rolled her eyes.

"Tsk, I think he did it on purpose."

Stheno crossed his arms and hummed succinctly.

"He's not sick, he's never been well..."

The wise ram's head on the Chimera's back, its eyes gleaming, delivered a chilling final blow.

"How about we play a riddle?"

"I have no past, I will become the past, no one has ever seen me, and no one will ever see me, but I am the mystery of people's survival and breath, the answer is..."

The Sphinx couldn't resist getting up, taking a step, squeezing into the group chat, and chattering away, trying to interact with its brothers and sisters.

"Shut up!"

Chimera, Euryale, and Stheno's heads buzzed when they heard the nonsensical riddle. They all roared in anger and raised the universal gesture they had learned from someone else at this somewhat neurotic guy.

"Why reject wisdom? Why choose ignorance? This world is too sick. I'd rather die than associate with ignorance."

The Sphinx, deeply wounded, its sorrowful woman's face contorted with grief, uttered a lament in the tone of a wandering poet, then clutched its head and leaped into the valley to the side.

"Crazy woman, why are you dragging me down if you want to die?"

The innocent Chimera, caught in the crossfire, bristled with fur, its lion's head of courage at the front, its goat's head of wisdom on its back, and its cunning snake's head at the tail, all hissing and roaring in anger.

The two monsters fought and clashed all the way, like meteors falling, and finally smashed a cone-shaped crater several meters deep in the valley.

Stheno and Euryale didn't even glance at the two fellows who had fallen off the cliff; their eyes met and they rolled their eyes.

At this height, even if they fall seventeen or eighteen times, they might not even lose a few hairs; they definitely won't die.

At this moment, Hydra, who had not yet fully mastered the common Titan language, found a quiet spot and lay down on the ground to take a nap.

The Colchian Dragon and the Nemean Lion roared and fought over the reasons of "What are you looking at?" and "What's it to you?"

The Hydra, which originally just wanted to sunbathe and sleep, became enraged after being spewed with Dragon Flame by the Colchian Dragon and stomped on by the Nemean Lion.

Immediately, Hydra stared wide-eyed at the battlefield with a sinister look, and roared as it charged into the fray. The duel between the two sides instantly turned into a three-way melee.

The absent Gorgon, nearing adulthood and possessing a wild and unruly nature, stubbornly clung to Themis, forcing her to move to a new nest.

A few days ago, Hera, who visited Themis, took this big bird to Olympus and made it Olympus 'Zeus messenger to inspect the earth. Every day, under the guise of inspection, it would go up and down in the sky and wander around.

Stheno glanced at the chaotic surroundings and gave a disdainful look to her brothers and sisters who were displaying their wild side.

"Tsk, I'm starting to miss Medusa..."

Euryale skillfully tilted her head to avoid a flying dead tree branch, then sighed, resting her chin on her hand.

"And Athena..."

"Life is meaningless without them."

Chiron stood on the podium, tapped the blackboard, and tried to soften his tone.

"Quiet down, you haven't..."

"Bang!"

The Colchian Dragon lashed its tail, slamming it onto the desk and splitting the slate in two.

"It didn't go down..."

"Boom!"

The Nemean Lion, lifted up by the Hydra, was flung out like a cannonball, shattering the blackboard into pieces.

"Get out of class dismissed..."

"Roar!"

The Nemean Lion, having risen to its feet, its mane bristling, roared with fury, the violent sonic waves causing the stone platform to crack inch by inch.

"Get out of class is over!"

"Hey, stop fighting! The teacher just said get out of class is over, everyone go out and play!"

Euryale and Stheno's eyes lit up, and they immediately leaped up and rushed toward the classroom door with great enthusiasm.

Get out of class is over?

At this moment, the gods and monsters who were fighting seemed to have heard a strange spell. Their anger subsided instantly, and they got up from the ground with smiles on their faces and rushed to the activity area.

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!"

However, the students had only run a few steps when four arrows fell from the sky, piercing the four corners of the sky and corresponding to the stars.

In an instant, the air vibrated, and Sorcery Array, formed from the four arrows as its base, instantly created an isolating barrier, sealing off the flow of ether.

"Since you all dislike going to class so much, then next..."

Chiron, standing on the broken platform, casually dusted himself off, his fingers cracking as he spoke softly.

"Make-up class time, Pankrasin teacher-student showdown!"

The group of students, filled with strange and supernatural beings, felt their eyelids twitch and their hair stand on end.
