"Ho…"

On the right side, Noel could actually see a hallway that was far different from anything he had ever seen.

This hallway was separated into three parts. The left and right part was made of normal stone where people could walk on them. There were even some papers stuck on the wall as if showing someone's research.

But the middle part amused Noel. It was made of a huge block of stone that kept moving automatically with Spiritual Energy.

"This is…" Noel muttered while approaching this weird, moving stone.

"This is one of the technologies we have found from the demon territory. We call this one 'Moving Pathstone,' The principle is pretty simple.

"We link up a few big smooth stones together and make them move in one direction. And at the end, they will go down and move backward. Repeat the process and you will get this Moving Pathstone."

"I see. It's pretty unique." Noel nodded with a serious expression.

"But isn't this a waste of resources? Why don't people just walk normally?" Rose asked while tilting her head.

The guide wanted to say something, but Noel stopped her. "I don't think you should think that way. If we take a look around us…"

Noel pointed his finger at the two people in front of them. They were the scholars who were actually discussing something while they were moving forward. Because their bodies weren't moving, they had an easier time focusing.

"Take a look at those two scholars. They are moving toward their destination while discussing something. Without this Moving Pathstone, they can't do it because it's hard to read while walking.

"Of course, I don't say that this is entirely good. For us, who train our bodies, we are required to move a lot or our bodies will become lazy and it will cause a lot of problems to our muscles and so on.

"So, I can say that it suits the scholars but not us. So, it's good but not applicable everywhere." Noel explained carefully.

"I see." Rose nodded in understanding.

Meanwhile, the guide seemed to feel relieved from Noel's understanding. Many people didn't know the usage and completely mocked them.

Rose was a better case where she only questioned the usage. So, the guide felt a bit better when there was someone who could see through their use.

On the opposite side of the hall was actually another Moving Pathstone, but in their direction. Because the school was made to surround the tower, this hall was made circular.

Meanwhile, in the front, they could see a huge garden that separated the academy with the tower. If they wanted to get inside the tower, they simply needed to walk forward from the hall. But because they wanted to go to the academy, they ended up moving along with the rest of the people.

This was the first time Noel used the Moving Pathstone. He couldn't help but enjoy it.

He only had to stand on top of them while using the time to take a look at the garden. It seemed the garden was used as a meeting between scholars.

"By the way, where are the training facilities for the scholars?" Noel asked the guide.

"Although most of our scholars are non-combat, we do have a few schools that have combat lessons. The training is usually held in the respective school. Each school has its own training area inside, which is not visible to most people.

"But most of the time, they conduct the training outside the town. We might prioritize safety, but it doesn't mean we're going to deprive our people of combat. After all, we have bandits, demons, and other threats that we might encounter outside this town."

Noel nodded in understanding while looking at the garden. There were many scholars discussing their projects outside. Some of them were very young and some of them were quite old.

Eventually, they reached their first destination, the Spirit Research Academy.

The hallway that connected the academy was similar to the one they entered. There was nothing they could see from it.

The guide led them to the administration office and immediately took care of the process, telling the staff about their purpose.

As soon as they got permission, they immediately walked away from the office and headed to the second floor. This was where the academy began to look more interesting.

There were numerous scholars chatting in the hallway. They all became curious when they saw Noel and Rose.

For the scholars, guiding these people had two purposes. If they were from a wealthy family, they could earn some pocket money since people often gave a hefty tip.

If these people came from a powerful figure, it was their chance to make a connection. There was a chance that they could be sponsored by them. After all, this type of people always had a way of procuring rare material with their connection.

Though, there was a possibility that these people came from commoners. In this case, they usually didn't get anything.

As sad as it looked, it was the reality.

So, they were wondering which type Noel and Rose belonged to.

'Are they…'

'Who knows? They don't seem to be commoners. Just look at that masquerade, it seems he doesn't want to show us his face.'

'But if you look at his body and posture, I think he is pretty handsome.'

The people were whispering to each other. Noel and Rose ignored them completely as they only had to follow their guide.

Eventually, they reached a classroom.

The guide introduced this classroom. "Welcome, Sir and Miss. This is the Origin Spirit Classroom. I have received permission from the staff that we can enter the classroom to introduce ourselves and our purpose to get a guide. I'm going to ask the teacher first."

"Is it alright for us to intrude on their class like this?"

"There are some teachers who are strict about this, but most of them are not for many reasons."

"I see. Please."
