Since Toby accepted Dangros' gift, he could no longer show his displeasure. However, he still ignored the bird's flattery and only responded with a few chirps from time to time.
Still, these chirps were enough to excite Dangros.
Actually, Dankros did not understand what Toby was chirping, but every time Toby chirped, Dankros would praise him even more profusely.
Just like that, a severed arm and a seabird talked for ten whole minutes without any translation.
Dangros finally stopped his chattering when they arrived at a red arched door.
"This is the classroom," Dangros said as he pointed forward.
Angor stood still and looked at the arched door. The door was open, and Angor could see several rows of black stone chairs and desks inside.
"It really is a classroom." Angor was a little surprised. He thought he misunderstood and thought the classroom was a small room where Magoo and Dangros taught one-on-one. But he did not expect this classroom to be similar to a classroom in a human academy.
So, Magoo's body was not only a collection of residential areas but also a school?
Was Magoo modifying his body into a city of elemental creatures?
Angor followed Dankros into the classroom with a confused look on his face.
Angor had a rough idea of what was inside the classroom from the outside. After entering the classroom, he noticed two details that he missed from the outside.
First, the lights in the classroom.
The classroom was spacious, about the size of a prayer hall in a normal church. However, the ceiling of the classroom was very high. It was at least thirty meters high. There was a giant orange fireball at the top of the ceiling, which served as the classroom's light.
Angor noticed the "light" because he could feel the strong elemental energy coming from the "light". It was the strongest elemental energy he sensed when he entered Magoo's body.
If he was not mistaken, this "light" was the "elemental core" Magoo mentioned in his voice transmission.
Using an elemental core as a "light"? Angor wondered if Magoo did it on purpose or was careless.
Apart from the "light", the second thing that caught Angor's attention was something at the front of the classroom.
The classroom was not empty. In the front few rows of seats, there was an extremely tall student sitting there.
When he saw the classroom from the outside, he was already prepared for the arrival of a student. However, he was still surprised because this student was different from what he expected.
This student was not a flame life form, but a stone man formed from a large number of stones.
In other words, this was an earth-type lifeform.
This was the first non-fire elemental creature he saw in this area.
Dankros noticed Angor's gaze and explained, "This is Inba from Wildstone Waste, Professor Magoo's student. It can make a lot of stones. The tables and chairs in the classroom are made by it. "
"Are they students from other places?" Angor asked.
International students? Dankros pondered over the words. He could understand what they meant, but he did not know why they were made up like that.
"Well, you can say that … I'm an international student."
Inba also heard Dankros and Angor's conversation. It quickly turned its stone head around and looked behind.
Inba first looked at Angor with a puzzled expression before he turned back to Dankros. "I'll say it again. Don't put 'little' in front of my name. I'm Inba, not Inba!"
Dankros ignored Inba and explained to Angor, "There are two international students from Wildstone Waste. They're brothers, and they're both called Inba. To avoid confusion, they added 'big' and 'little' in front of their names. Big Inba is three times bigger than Little Inba, so it's called Big Inba, while this one is called Little Inba. "
Little Inba spoke angrily, "You can call my brother Big Inba, but you can't call me Little Inba! I'm Inba! I'm not Little Inba!"
Dankros humphed and turned away. He did not care about Little Inba's protest.
Little Inba retorted, "I'm still dozens of times bigger than you!"
Dankros retorted, "I just haven't grown up yet. When I become mature, I'll become as big as my ancestor!"
Little Inba retorted, "But Kalomonkis didn't have hands like yours. No matter how big you become, you won't turn into him. Instead, you'll probably become this … human beside you. "
Little Inba's words hit Dankros' sore spot. As the descendant of Kalomonkis, Inba hated it when people said he did not look like Kalomonkis. Dankros rushed to Little Inba and scratched it with all his might. However, Little Inba's body was made of stone. It did not hurt at all.
"You know I'm a human? You've seen a human before? "Angor looked at Little Inba.
Little Inba replied, "No, I haven't. But Professor Magoo told me about how a human looks like you."
Dankrose, who was still scratching, stopped at this moment. "Did Teacher Magoo mention humans?"
Little Inba grumbled, "Of course he did. You were too busy playing to listen."
Little Inba stood up and pushed Dankros away. "You're here to see Professor Magoo, aren't you? He even asked me to tidy up the classroom. Since you're already here, I'll take my leave. "
Little Inba glanced at Angor several times before leaving. It seemed to be curious about the human's appearance.
Dankros glared at Little Inba and muttered, "Next time, I'll gather all my minions and beat you up. Let's see if you dare to talk nonsense again!"
Even though Little Yinba had already walked out of the classroom, its voice could still be heard. "I heard that Duroche is about to gain sentience. Without its help, you won't even be able to break my skin. Let's see who's going to beat who up then!"
Little Inba's words hit Dankros' sore spot again. Dankros jumped up and down angrily in the classroom, but Little Inba had already left.
Finally, Dan Gross' anger calmed down a little.
Angor asked, "You mean there are many foreign students in the classroom?"
Dankros was still angry and did not want to talk. But since Toby was there, it had to answer, "No. Only Big Inba and Little Inba are foreign students."
"Why?"
"Because Wildstone Wasteland is our ally. That's why they sent their foreign students here. The other regions either ignore us or don't want to deal with us, so they don't come. They also have their own wise men, but I don't think those wise men are as smart as Professor Magoo. "
Angor nodded as if he understood something.
There was no concept of a country here, but there was the concept of ethnic groups. Between different races, there were definitely different standpoints.
Angor was still surprised. He thought the elemental creatures were more like tribes, which were very primitive. But now, it seemed that they had their own civilization and way of living.
The existence of this classroom might represent a small part of the civilization of the fire creatures.
But this classroom was too similar to an academy in the outside world. Angor guessed that Professor Magoo had been to the outside world before.
"Speaking of which, why didn't Mister Magoo show up?" Angor looked at the empty classroom and wondered.
Dankros hesitated for a moment and said, "Could it be that he's asleep?"
Dankros did not care whether his guess was correct or not. He opened his mouth and shouted with all his might, "Professor Magoo! Professor Magoo! Are you there? "
After shouting for about three minutes, they heard someone coughing. "Stop shouting. I'm here."
Angor looked back and saw an old man with a red beard wearing a red robe and holding a walking stick coming in from the arched door not far away.
The newcomer looked like a human, but if one looked closely, they would discover that the red beard of the newcomer was actually a blazing flame. The old man's walking stick was also a red, translucent flame. Even the red robe he was wearing hid the jumping flames.
Also, although it looked like the old man was walking, his feet were actually fused with the ground.
This was not a human. It was not even the old man's real body. It was just the shape of a flame.
It was the master of this lava lake and Dankros' teacher, Magoo.
Magoo slowly entered the classroom with the help of his walking stick. Dankros quickly jumped down from his desk and hopped to Magoo's side. He grabbed Magoo's flaming beard and swung it around.
Magoo looked at Dankros with a smile and did not stop him. He looked like a kind elder.
"Professor Magoo, what took you so long? Did you fall asleep again? "Dankros asked while swinging around.
Magoo's expression froze. "What do you mean by 'fell asleep'? I just took a small nap."
"Isn't that just falling asleep?"
"Nonsense. A nap is a nap. How can you say that I fell asleep?" Magoo picked up Dankros and spoke in a serious tone.
"Okay, okay, it's a nap." Dankros nodded along with Magoo, but his eyes were still wandering. He did not believe it.
Magoo did not care whether Dankros was being sincere or not. He put Dankros aside and looked at Angor. "You're the human His Highness mentioned, right?"
"Did the new king tell you about me?" Angor asked.
"Not everything. He just told me through the flame that you have a question for me." Magoo looked at Dankros again. "Did you hear that? I wasn't just resting. I also received His Highness' message."
Dankros curled his lips. He naturally did not like being called "His Highness".
Magoo asked Angor to sit down. He then glanced at Toby with an inquisitive look.
Angor patted Toby's shoulder. Toby understood Angor's intention and flew down from the bird's head. The bird quickly transformed into a giant griffin.
Toby shook the mane on his neck, and a large amount of fire was thrown out.
The fire did not set the air on fire. Instead, it melted into the ground and disappeared.
Toby circled around in the air and slowly landed beside Angor, where it lay down quietly.
Dangros looked at Toby's body that was filled with power, and flames of desire erupted in its eyes. It tried to get closer to Toby, and Toby did not refuse. However, when Dangros wanted to grab Toby's fur, Toby pressed it under its paws.
Dankros did not struggle at all. Instead, he let out a satisfied grunt. Angor did not know what to say.
Magoo used a complicated gaze to size up Toby. There was both nostalgia and regret in his eyes. After a long while, he said, "As expected, you are a descendant of Kalomonkis … It's just that there is a tyrannical aura in the flames, but its emotions are very calm. This is somewhat contrary to the feeling the flames give me."
Angor chuckled. "Toby's flame is Fury."
In other words, Toby's griffin form was Fury. However, Angor did not want to reveal the secret of Toby's transformation. It was better to let these elemental creatures think that Toby was a descendant of Kalomonkis rather than explaining that Toby's griffin form was just one of Toby's transformations.
"Fire of Fury, huh? It's not rare among the fire creatures in the Fire Domain. But Kalomonkis' flame is the Flame of Life and Death. It's a flame that seeks balance against all things, "Magoo explained.
"Well, Caromonchis is different from Toby."
Magoo nodded. "You're right."
Magoo looked at Toby with an affectionate look.
Angor noticed it too. He remembered Midier saying that Magoo and Kalomonkis were close friends. "Mister Magoo, can we talk about Kalomonkis?"
Magoo considered and nodded. "I'll tell you even if you don't ask. Toby is a descendant of Kalomonkis. Maybe one day, Toby will bring the news of Kalomonkis to his true descendant."
When Lin Li mentioned the real descendant, Dankros, who was pressed under Toby's claws, struggled for a moment as if he wanted to say something. However, before he could say anything, Toby pressed him down even harder, and he swallowed his words.
"The main theme of Kalomonkis' story is to protect and wait …"
Magoo remained silent for a long time. Angor thought Magoo was trying to recall something, so he waited for two minutes. But what he got was …
"Zzzzzzz …"
Angor looked up and saw Magoo sitting on a chair with both hands on his walking stick. His head was leaning against the stick, and he was snoring loudly with his eyes closed.
Angor's lips twitched as he looked at Toby.
Toby lifted his head and let out a furious roar, which sent flames all the way to the ceiling.
The loud noise woke Magoo up from his slumber. He looked around in confusion.
"Ahem, I was just recalling something. Do you believe me?" Magoo stroked his flaming beard.
"Of course." Angor nodded with a smile. He didn't expose Magoo's lie.
Magoo looked away. "Shall we continue?"
"Please."
Magoo nodded. "Kalomonkis had the fairest Flame of Life and Death. Because of this, his master, Mister Feng, left him in the Tidal Realm as a hub to ensure equality between all races."
