Apostle of the Gods

21 Interaction with disciples

Zenobia says happily.

"Nevertheless, your master soon realized it was me too!

"How did you know I'd noticed?

"Because I hugged you from behind and you weren't alert"

"I see."

I suppose you want to say that the person I'm not alert to when they hold me is about a disciple.

I'm not alert to being hugged by Sarya right now.

"Zenobia hasn't changed at all. I know that."

"Oh, I can't believe you're young. Master's still good at flattery."

I didn't say you were young, and I don't mean to compliment you.

It doesn't change because it's an elf, because it's not very special.

Yet Zenobia seems very happy. I'm even crying.

When Zenobia was small, I gently stroke Zenobia's head like I did for her.

Now that my height is the opposite, I have to stretch my back.

"Ugh, uhh............ I miss it. Ugh."

Zenobia started crying even though she stroked it to make him stop crying.

"Right. I miss you."

So I kept stroking Zenobia's head.

Look at that. Milt says smudged.

"I really miss you"

"Milt's old."

"Yes, it's been about a hundred years since then."

Those with good magic quality and abundant quantities age slowly.

So even though the milt is nearly one hundred and twenty years old, it only looks like about seventy.

No, it doesn't even look like sixty.

This would mean that the milt aging rate is about half normal.

"It's hardly the same as how old I am in late life."

"... I'm so glad you said that to your master"

"It's the fruit of Milt's efforts. I know very well that I've worked hard ever since."

"... thank you"

"Besides, the idea of a favorite measuring device was fantastic"

"... Yes... Yes, thank you"

Milt also began to spill his melting tears.

I can't help it, so I'll stroke Milt's head.

As I stroke them this way, I remember when they were young.

They're both crying, something I used to cry about at a young age.

I kept gently stroking my head until they settled down.

In the meantime, Lunlun and Fulful also seemed to de-alert.

After crying for a while, Xenobia says shyly

"Master. I showed you a disgrace without merit."

"No, don't worry about what. I missed the old days, too."

"Embarrassing"

Xenovia makes her cheeks red.

"That's right. Let me explain all the contemporary circumstances!

"Oh, please. I only know modern times like eight-year-olds."

"What are you talking about..."

Zenobia is urged to sit in a bench. The bench was very comfortable to sit in.

Lunlun sits right at my feet. Full is still on my shoulder.

"I'll serve you some tea and sweets soon."

"You don't have to worry"

"I want to have tea with my master."

It's also a bad idea to say no if you say so. It's the first reunion in a hundred years.

I want to warm up my old relationship with my disciples, too.

Eat sweets while you drink the tea Zenobia and Milt prepared for you.

"Fushuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Lunlun puts his chin on the desk. Very rough nose.

"Piggy Pippy"

The full one over my shoulder started trembling hard too.

Maybe both Lunlun and Fulful want sweets.

"Well, are you okay?"

They say it's not a good idea to give a dog human food.

But Lunlun is a god beast, so he'll be fine.

Full is slime, so basically I would eat anything organic, so I'm fine.

"Zenobia.Milt. Can we split the treats between Lunlun and Full?

"Absolutely."

"Feel free"

I got permission, so I also split the treat between Lunlun and Full.

Both Lunlun and Full looked delicious and they ate the treat.

"We'll have a souvenir for your sister later."

"I appreciate that"

And I have a chat, and I ask him what he cares about.

"I guess Alti is a Zenobian apprentice, right?

"Right. He's a very talented kid."

"Right. No matter how many apprentices, I feel sorry for letting them handle the filth alone"

"No, Master, it wasn't."

"What's the difference?

When I tried to clean your Cao's filth, he said Zenobia was unnecessary.

Milt says with a smile.

"This college has a lot of golems dedicated to cleaning that I've developed."

"So all Alti has to do is press the switch and the cleaning is done"

I wish I had.

My disciples don't seem to be pushing all the dirt disposal and other chores on Alti.

"I see. That was an extra favor."

"No, no. It's been a long time since I've seen my master's magic."

Zenobia and Milt seem happy.

"By the way, how are Regina and Dion doing now?

Regina and Dion are my disciples.

Regina is a brave man and Dion a healing magician.

"Regina and Dion are far away at work now"

"I will report back soon after this that I have met my master's reincarnated body, so I will see him soon"

"That's exciting"

And I remembered something important.

"Oh, I forgot, I was a student. Is the writing just about over?

"Right. It's time to move on to practice."

"I heard the writing doesn't attach much importance... but it would be just as bad to retrace my practical skills"

Some students include illegible bow masters who have come out of rural areas in the countryside.

So the writing is hardly taken into account.

Alti said he would make him take a written exam to serve as a reference for post-pass education policy.

"Oh, don't worry. Because my master has already passed."

Zenobia smiled and said so.

Apparently, I was passing.
