Shoutout to Bruh_Vista and Harjas_Sidhu for beta-reading and providing extensive feedback for this chapter! That's right! Ye boi's a sell-out now! Any ways, I was told that adding more privilege sections allows me to put a discount on the per chapter cost. So it should be worth it (emphasis on the worth). Regardless, my upload schedule will be the same so you guys can still keep updated with my work using the daily free passes :) ____ Guy held a small party in the library, with cake (which Grace…-

Guy felt a sense of accomplishment, in observing the industriousness with which the four teens hustled around and set up their new experiment. The rigour, enthusiasm, and seriousness tugged at his nostalgia. In his past life, he'd observed a similar bustling scene whenever it came time for his students to try out something new and take on a self-led project. There is an inherent difference between undertaking a predefined experiment versus a self-led project, and it is a matter of ownership. The…

356 The Frivolous Four - The Roaring Blaze (Part One) The quartet shuffled uncomfortably as they sat, cross-legged, in front of the Leader of the True World Sect. This wasn't their first time in such a position, after all, he WAS their teacher for a lot of the classes that took place during the week. However, this meeting felt different. In a classroom, they didn't feel the same weight on their shoulders as they did now. The situation was different, they weren't here just to listen, they were here…

"The recovery potions are ready, and Lacey and Casey are on standby," Kevan declared, his eyes firmly focused on Revian who was standing between two platforms with one hand holding a measuring cylinder filled with water with a cuboid mana crystal submerged in it, and his other palm covering the heating mana gem on the Caloric Tank. Revian nodded in response, "I'll call out when I run out of mana. After two seconds, I will start drawing the mana from the mana crystal, and start the timer precisely when…

Shoutout to Harjas_Sidhu for beta-reading and providing extensive feedback for this chapter! ____ "You don't have to follow us, you know?" Markus said casually to Dora, who was walking beside him and struggling to keep up with the pace of the group of five consisting of Revian, Kevan, Casey, Lacey and Markus. "I have to go meet Fancy anyways - it's been some time since we last talked," Dora said between breaths while waving her hand dismissively. "She said she was going to be busy growing, or…

Revian hummed for a few seconds and said, "I remember Senior Brother Markus saying that the primary reason why we use a wand early on is that our mana pools don't have the capacity to sustain a ranged spell. Why don't we start there?" "How exactly do you suggest we do that?" Lacey challenged, causing Revian to shrink back. "Come on, now," the boy eked out. "There are no bad ideas in a brainstorm..." "Don't mind her," Kevan interjected while patting Revian's shoulder. "She's just too taken by the…

Socratic seminars were fun, Markus admitted. Although the set-up took a fair bit of work on his end, the actual seminar was self-driving. All he had to do was sit aside and focus on the direction the discussion was moving. If said discussion moved off-topic or lost momentum, he had to step in and reignite things. But otherwise, things were mostly hands-off. Markus liked that a lot as it introduced a new dynamic to every lesson. Before, as he acted as the lecturer and taught lessons through the standard…

Shoutout to Bruh_Vista for beta-reading and providing extensive feedback for this chapter! ____ The interview offered Shuri more insight than she could have imagined. In fact, after understanding and internalising all the information provided by Yohn as well as the secondary research she did on the side, the amount of noise in her perturbed min reduced significantly. At this point, there were only a few ideas and concepts floating about in there, each just as viable as the other. The essence of…

Shoutout to Bruh_Vista for beta-reading and providing extensive feedback for this chapter! ____ "Didn't you just leave?" Markus asked Shuri, half-smiling-half-serious. She hoped to avoid meeting the boy, but coincidentally, their paths crossed as she entered the library. Shuri swallowed her embarrassment and said, "It's my time of the month." Markus coughed loudly, his face turning a luminescent shade of red, "Oh! Well... Umm... Carry on... I mean-" Revealing a sly smirk, she pushed past Markus…

There are over 43 quintillion unique possible arrangements for a standard 3-by-3-by-3 Rubik's cube, which is an incredibly large number! To put it into perspective, if someone were to count from 1 to 43 quintillion at a rate of one number per second, it would take them approximately 1.37 trillion years to reach that amount. This exceeds the age of the universe by several orders of magnitude. When we reduce the cube to a two-by-two-by-two, the number of possible arrangements is significantly decreased…
