Chapter 580 – Studying Breathtaking Letters -2-
“”···?””
The scene seen by Roman and Atra, who were in the alley.
It was an amazing combination that made me laugh out loud as soon as I saw it.
Theodor Spenta, the emperor of the Volasen Federal State.
Varian is in charge of personnel, intelligence, and operations tasks for the federal bureau.
There is a kitty there, as if it had been synthesized.
“What are you guys doing here?”
The sight of the three of them holding a table in a dark alley made it impossible to even guess or guess what the situation was.
So, let Roman ask a question to resolve his curiosity.
Varian got up from the table and quickly approached.
“Oh, Roman…! Atra! How have you been?”
Varian, who came up to me and greeted me with a soft smile, had his calm expression that he used to show at serious events such as conferences shattered.
What should I say about the facial expressions that welcome Roman and Atra?
Deep relief rather than joy.
To exaggerate a bit, I felt like a castaway who found an oasis in the desert.
“Oh, it’s Roman and Atra! Hello, hello!”
Kitty sees the two and waves her hand in an expression of intimacy.
Roman and Atra smiled and greeted each other and approached the table where Theodore and Kitty were seated.
In the meantime.
Theodore’s eyes, resting his chin, were filled with Roman approaching.
‘!?’
Since Roman specializes in killing his presence and hiding his power, it is impossible for him to measure accurately.
Theodor Spenta, the leader of the pureblood dragon race, can feel it through instinct.
The existence of Roman has become even bigger.
‘You’ve grown again… How on earth?’
Is it just my opinion that the period of not being able to face it is too short to see results from training?
Just watching him walk is impressive. I can’t even imagine it.
The only way to strike an effective blow is pitch black.
It was not visible at all.
‘As expected, it was a good thing I came to the empire.’
Even if the path is so far away that he can’t even see it, Theodore doesn’t despair.
Simply great stimulation.
Rather than being challenged from the top, I once again enjoyed the role of breathlessly chasing after Roman.
“Roman. Is the trip over?”
“Well, for now? I guess I’ll just go out and come back for a while.”
Theodore knows how I am.
If you rush into a fight now, the only one who will get satisfaction will definitely be yourself.
‘Such figures are absolutely unacceptable.’
Just receiving it once was enough. The relationship between Roman and yourself should not be one-sided.
It should be at a level that can provide the minimum amount of pleasure to Roman who bumps into it.
“Eng… Roman oppa, where are you going again?”
Kitty lifted the chair she was sitting on and let out a wistful voice.
Roman shifted his gaze and raised the corners of his mouth.
“I won’t be away for as long as this time. I’ll come to the store as often as possible.”
“Promise me! Promise!”
“Promise.”
Kitty holds out her little finger.
When Roman bent down and held out his thick finger, Kitty hooked her cute finger.
After finishing the procedure, the girl with a satisfied smile moved her gaze towards Atra, who was standing with Roman.
“Atra, you promise me too!”
“Hehe, is that so?”
As Atra holds out her little finger, Kitty intertwines her own fingers and smiles innocently.
Because Roman and her wives visit the bakery together, they build a relationship with Kitty and understand her tendencies to a certain extent.
What did she promise to Atra herself?
She does not ask.
The girl is probably just enjoying this act itself.
“So, what are you doing now? In an alley like this.”
“Ah, I was teaching this kid how to read.”
Theodore calmly answered Roman’s question, but Roman’s doubts deepened.
“Well…? Why suddenly?”
“It’s not a kid! It’s a kitty!”
As Atra hugged and calmed the struggling Kitty, Theodore continued his explanation.
From the trip to see the frost wolf to the conversation I had with Kitty.
Kitty’s comment that her view of the world seemed lukewarm was a refreshing shock to Theodore.
“Because I felt that a new perspective was needed to overcome the wall.”
“···.”
“My values have solidified over a long period of time. I act recklessly under the value of freedom, but I am immersed in and imbued with the common sense and knowledge that has been passed down from generation to generation of the Yongin people. The more I look back and think about it, the more I act based on the common sense of the Yongin people. I was doing it.”
“Oh, indeed.”
It’s a story that is difficult for anyone but Roman to understand.
Atra and Varian also listened to the story from the side, but it was difficult to understand what was being said.
However, Roman understands.
‘It’s a new perspective.’
On the contrary, if you have peeked over the wall, you cannot deny that the method of intertwining with Kitty, who gave you a stepping stone for a short time, is effective.
I also understood the reason for teaching Kitty to read.
Because Roman and Theodore know how volatile an instantaneous realization can be.
Theodore also feels like writing and sleeping, and he would like to stay here and listen to your opinion.
“So I captured Varian, but even teaching him how to read didn’t work out the way I wanted.”
“No shame…”
I understood the situation.
Therefore, Roman asked the most important thing first.
“Kitty doesn’t want to learn, so you’re not forcing her to study, are you?”
“Ha, there is nothing more vain than the knowledge she forcibly instills.”
Theodore let out a laugh and rolled his eyes towards Kitty being held by Atra.
A lively answer was heard.
“Me! Me! I want to learn how to write!”
“Why does Kitty want to learn to read?”
When Atra asked in her sweet voice, Kitty put out her lips like a duck and cooed.
“Tom once told me I was an idiot because he could write…”
“Tom? Who is Tom?”
Theodore looked at Roman and asked about the name he had heard for the first time, but Roman did not know the name.
The answer came from Atra.
“If I remember correctly, he’s Kitty’s friend. He’s probably learning how to write, so he can run his parents’ general store.”
“Hmph, Tom is not a friend!”
“Oh my.”
Atra gently scolded Kitty that she shouldn’t do that.
Even though Theodore said it was okay, Varian was so absorbed that he hung his head down in the background.
Roman raised the corner of his mouth as he looked at the overall background of the alley.
‘It’s a common occurrence.’
Showing off your skills and teaching are completely separate areas.
Just because you have an outstanding career as a player doesn’t mean your skills as a manager are necessarily good.
Even if Varian was a genius in the Federation, it was natural that it would be difficult for him to predict the level of a girl who had never received a proper education.
‘It’s not like cutting, but writing… I can’t even think of teaching it.’
It’s a situation where Roman can’t just offer to help.
Atra let out a low voice.
“If you’re having trouble, can I help you a little?”
“Atra-sama…?”
Varian, who was looking at the ground, slowly raised his head and gave a pleading look.
The gaze is probably waiting for a helping hand.
Atra sat down with the kitty she was holding and sat right next to her.
“Kitty. Shall we draw a picture with letters first?”
“Huh? Do you draw pictures with letters?”
“I’m curious how you draw?”
“I’m curious!”
Atra gave Kitty her pen and slowly guided her hand over her small hand.
“Now, let’s draw Mr. Cat. Does Kitty like Mr. Cat?”
“I like it! There are cats I see every day.”
“Then, while picturing those cats in your head… Let’s draw a circle here first, and then draw pointy ears and whiskers.”
“Yes!”
“Mr. Cat’s whiskers are ‘this’ long. If you pull his whiskers, his eyebrows frown! Mr. Cat says ‘Ah’!”
“Oooh…!”
The words Atra spoke to Kitty were like a song.
He hums, emphasizes the vowels, and clumsily draws a cat.
It was a forced form to teach letters, but what is the importance of that?
Kitty looked happy.
“What is Mr. Cat’s favorite food? Does anyone know?”
“Fish!”
“Correct! Kitty is smart.”
After responding to her fussily, Atra took Kitty’s hand again.
Hum the song in the same way as before and overlap the vowels to create a simple fish shape.
“Indeed, you started to gain interest in comparing the shape of letters to natural objects without having time to be curious…”
This also has great concentration.
Kitty and Varian couldn’t take their eyes off Atra’s class, expressing different types of admiration.
··
··
“You can’t learn to write in one day. If you learn it step by step, you will learn it quickly.”
Atra’s short class was over in just a few minutes.
Even though the class was over, Kitty continued to copy cats and fish on her paper, singing along.
I already clearly remember some of the vowels.
Roman lightly massaged the shoulders of Atra, who looked at the sight with admirable eyes.
“Isn’t it really amazing? He was like a teacher.”
“When she was a saint, she went on pilgrimages here and there with Majella, right? Even back then, there were many children who were curious about writing.”
“I gained know-how through teaching.”
I leaned in and whispered to Art Ragaroman, who was laughing at her praise.
“Can I teach my wife’s child this way in the future?”
“As expected, I got married well. I couldn’t have done this on my own.”
“Hehe… I’m going to say something, but I’m embarrassed to hear it from you.”
The intimacy of being lost in our own world.
Theodore turned his attention to the sweet atmosphere that was difficult to get used to and dug into another gap.
“Varian. Are you ready to teach now?”
“Yes! Please believe me one more time! I will use raccoons, foxes, and owls to attack the vowels without any gaps!”
Roman, who was hugging Atra around her slim waist, looked at the two dragons.
“Before class, motivation is important. How about offering a prize like chocolate?”
“That is correct.”
“You are correct.”
Theodore and Varian were also convinced.
We also know that giving something like expensive jewelry or a bag of gold coins can be dangerous.
“Little boy.”
“I’m not a kid!”
Theodore, who giggled at Kitty’s reaction, habitually rested his chin and asked.
“If you work hard to learn how to write, I will give you a reward. Is there anything you want?”
