This was clearly Robert's current concern.
If the credits for this class were not counted, he and White would not be able to pay off their debts.
‘Ah, why does it have to be this class?!'
Robert roared inwardly, feeling frustrated.
...
But it was the first time for Dark to teach a lesson. How would he know if the credits were counted or not?
He thought for a while and decided to give it a try. "Very well, Brogheim's question is very constructive. It seems that everyone is concerned about this question. Why don't we do an experiment?"
Robert, "What experiment?"
Dark suddenly said loudly, "Brogheim, deduct five points!"
Robert's face suddenly changed.
He quickly took out the sorting card to check it, and he really lost five points!
Dark asked, "So? Did you lose any points?"
Robert nodded with a sad face, "Yes."
Dark smiled slightly, "Brogheim, add five points."
Although he didn't know what the reason was, he obviously had the power to control the credits of the students in this class.
Realizing that Dark could really deduct their points, those students who were dissatisfied with him had curbed their dissatisfaction a lot.
Dark said, "Since everyone has no more problems, then we will formally start the class. Please take out the problem set and turn to page XX. By the way, everyone has done their homework, right?"
Facing his doubts, the students of Magister House were slightly disdainful, and someone in Knight House even opened the problem set to show him.
Speaking of, the last arithmetic class was last Thursday, and it had been five full days since then.
As long as it was a normal student, it was impossible to not finish it, right?
Originally, according to Professor Lily's practice, the exercises would be collected before the end of class. They would then be corrected and distributed in the next class. The assignments for the new week would be assigned together.
But Dark wanted to kill time, so he planned to talk about the homework directly today.
Anyway, it was he who corrected most of the first-year homework.
After explaining the homework in the class, it would also save him the trouble of correcting the students' homework later!
But when he was about to open the exercise book, he suddenly looked up and noticed Robert's expression was ugly.
...
Robert's expression was more than ugly, he almost wanted to cry!
Because he really forgot to do his homework!
Of course, White beside him also did not write a number at all!
It was just that White's emotional control was better than Robert, so he didn't show it much.
The homework of the arithmetic class was all assigned on Thursdays. Because it was approaching the weekend, many students used to do it together on the weekend.
But last weekend was the first day of the opening of Traveller Street!
White and Robert spent huge sums of money to buy the latest magic chess and since Friday afternoon, they had been playing magic chess all weekend. So how could they remember what homework was given?
And by Monday, last night, they had been thinking of ways to borrow credits, it was even more impossible for them to do homework!
"Hey."
Robert suddenly felt a pain in his thigh and turned his head to look at White subconsciously.
White retracted his hand and winked quickly, signalling him to act normal.
But how could he act normal?
Dark originally didn't want to care that much. He really didn't bother to care, but Robert's appearance was so obvious that the students of Noble House across the aisle all noticed it.
One student even looked at him maliciously and slowly raised his hand!
If he ignored it at this time, it would be really unreasonable.
Dark said helplessly, "Powell, what is it?"
Powell stood up slowly and pointed at Robert proudly, "Dear Demon, I saw a mouse hiding the homework in his crotch."
Dark turned his gaze to Robert and White next to him and simply said, "Gawd, check Brogheim's homework."
White lowered his head helplessly and reached for Robert's problem set.
He had no choice, because he also didn't do it, so he had to abandon Robert.
After pretending to check it again, White said helplessly, "Sorry, it seems he really forgot to do his homework."
Dark's face became "sullen". "Very well, Brogheim. Do you remember how many points will be deducted for not doing homework?"
Robert gritted his teeth.
Dark said blankly, "Brogheim, deduct 10 points!"
White grabbed the corner of the problem set tightly.
An extremely ominous premonition suddenly appeared in his heart!
...
Dark did not go too far. He turned around to copy the exercises onto the blackboard, explaining each problem one by one.
He occasionally threw questions, and also quoted stories to explain some difficult questions. It was even better than Professor Lily's teaching.
The students gradually discovered that those unusually difficult exercises seemed to suddenly become easier!
And Robert in the audience looked pale-faced.
White tried his best to pretend that he was listening. He had never hated himself so much for not doing his homework.
Obviously, they were all first-year students.
Obviously, they were the sons of the Kingdom of Double Swords.
Now, one was giving lectures on the podium, and the other did not do homework and feared being found out!
His hand grasped the pen with unprecedented force.
...
The explanation of the exercises was much smoother than Dark expected, especially in terms of dragging time. =_=!
Asking questions for ten minutes and doing exercises for half an hour, forty minutes had passed in a blink of an eye.
Dark looked at the clock and realised that he should tell some useful knowledge.
So he followed his initial thoughts and told a story about the "Combinatorial explosion".
Of course he couldn't really talk about the exponential function, as it was very likely that those little magisters wouldn't be able to understand.
The idea of talking about this came from yesterday's accidental encounter, and it was about Emma's debt dispute with White and Robert.
Although Dark did not hear the specific content clearly, that did not stop him from recalling a story about the bankruptcy of a millionaire.
Since he was standing on this podium today, he wanted to tell this story to those students.
So he followed his own thoughts and started speaking, "The famous dragon egg magister Dada Vinci once said that arithmetic is the foundation of all magisters! Some of you think that arithmetic has little effect on magical duels, so you don't bother to learn, and don't even bother to do homework. This kind of behavior is very stupid!"
"If you don't even know the basic arithmetic, let alone the magical duel, even in normal life, you will be fooled by other people."
"Once upon a time, there was a millionaire named Jamie who went bankrupt because he didn't know arithmetic."
Then, Dark told the story.
One day, the millionaire Jamie ran into something strange.
A person named Weber said to him, "I want to make a contract with you. I will give you 100,000 sacred coins every day for a whole month. You only need to give me 0.1 coin on the first day, and then you will need to give me twice as much money every day as you did the day before."
Jamie only saw the difference between 0.1 point and 100,000, and was pleasantly surprised, "Really?! You will keep your word?"
After the contract was made, Jamie was ecstatic.
On the first day, Jamie spent 0.1 coin and earned 100,000.
The next day, Jamie spent 0.2 coin and earned 100,000.
On the 10th day, Jamie had a total of 1 million, and only paid out 5.12 sacred coins.
On the 20th day, Jamie had a total of 2 million, while Webber had only more than 5,000 sacred coins.
Jamie couldn't help thinking, "How great it would be if the contract can be set for two or three months!"
But after 21 days, the situation changed!
On the 21st day, Jamie spent more than 10,000 and earned 100,000.
By the 28th day, Jamie had spent more than 1.34 million and earned only 100,000.
As a result, Jamie paid more than 21 million sacred coins to Weber in exchange for 3.1 million sacred coins in one month (31 days)!
Then Jamie went bankrupt!
...
"EMMA!"
Robert's roar resounded through the classroom.
