The World: creating the peace

"While the Calm Madman was heading to the settlement, the Faceless One was studying and training."

Faceless: * So. I think it's possible to combine mana control training and time sense training. If I count 10 seconds during mana control, I will immediately pass the 2nd stage.*

Faceless: First you need to understand how to control mana. My brother didn't give me any hints, so I need to somehow understand mana control myself.

"Faceless spent about 5 hours thinking."

Faceless: I can assume that we have a mana core and we can use it to control mana somehow. If I try to concentrate and feel the streams through which mana flows, then, in fact, I can understand its essence.

"The Faceless One set the hourglass and began to meditate."

"Every 10 seconds, the Faceless One set the clock again and began to meditate. It lasted 30 days."

---Our time, near the city---

"The calm madman was gradually approaching the city."

Calm madman: * I see that documents are being checked at the entrance, and I am not from this kingdom, but not from this universe at all, I will have to make my way illegally.*

"A calm madman approached the city from the side where there is no security. I saw the dome of the castle and teleported away."

Calm madman: * So, now you need to find a smart person.*

"The calm madman came down and headed to the city center. He tried to stay out of sight, as he is recognized as either a monster, or a spy, or maybe even a minion of a demon. Walking around the city center, he was looking for information about a school where there are smart people. Soon, after 2 hours of searching for information, he finally found what he wanted. There were 2 old ladies sitting on the fountain by the big brick road."

1 old lady: Oh, listen. My granddaughter enrolled in such a prestigious school today. There are only smart guys and aristocrats there.

2 old lady: Wow, and my son received an A-rank card from the adventurers Guild today. And what is the name of this school?

1 old lady: Hmm. The school is, like, called "Brainstorming". They say the king himself studied there. After all, although our city is far from the kingdom, it is very famous thanks to this school.

"The calm madman listened attentively to this conversation, I'm not missing the 1st detail."

Calm madman: * So, I understood about the school. I'm only confused by the adventurers guild. If my brother and I attract their attention before the due time, then write - it's gone. We're going to have big, long-term problems.*

--- 30 minutes later---

The calm madman: * The old ladies leave, it is necessary to follow the 1st to find her granddaughter, and with the help of her granddaughter - to find a school*

"A calm madman started spying on a limping old lady. He ran on roofs, then through dark alleys, then teleported, losing his lame grandmother."

--- After 15 minutes of walking---

"The limping old lady reached home. It remains for the calm madman to find out whose house this is in order to take subsequent actions."

Calm madman: * She went into the house, so she can't be here for stealing or worse. We need to observe.*

"A calm madman approached a brick house and saw a family sitting at a table in the window. They had dinner, talked, and had fun."

The calm madman: * The girl in the white dress is most likely the granddaughter of that old lady. Now all that remains is to find out where her school is.*

"The calm madman thought right, but did not know that at that time she had not yet gone to school, but had just enrolled."

--- At the same time---

"The Faceless One's training has paid off."

Faceless: Wooh. I've learned to feel the time. Now I can count exactly up to 10 seconds without losing even milliseconds. Hmmm. I noticed that thanks to my meditation, without sight, I can hear every grain of sand falling in the clock, as well as all sorts of insects crawling.

"Then the Faceless One realized that he feels everything that he does not see. He sees images of objects in his head, thanks to their inner mana."

Faceless: * I now 'see' everything that happens. Every caterpillar, every worm, and the room I'm in.*

"In fact, the Faceless One has only begun to feel the surrounding mana a little. In fact, the Faceless One released a huge amount of mana, so much so that if it was compressed, then in terms of energy, it could replace the core of Jupiter. Because of this, he could sense objects in this environment only due to the distortion of mana around them. He has not fully learned to feel mana in objects."

Faceless: Yes, my brother was right. Still, my mana is toxic to living organisms. Everything alive in the cave has been dead for 30 days. Hopefully, he can find a way to not emit it.

"After this conclusion, Faceless decided to start mana control training."

Faceless: * So, if the mana in my body flows moves depending on my concentration and desire, then the control should be similar. I think, to begin with, it is worth at least moving the emission area away from the wall by a couple of centimeters.*

"The Faceless One did not know that the movement of the emitted mana is available to only 1 out of 70,000. And mana control is only available to 1 out of 10,000."

--- At the same time---

"The calm madman spent the whole night at the old lady's house."

Calm madman: * So, it's getting light now, so this granddaughter will get up soon.*

"The calm madman waited for 5 hours and it was 12 o'clock in the morning, but the granddaughter did not get up. And he continued to wait."

--- It's been 14 days, the time is 9:21---

"The calm madman was still waiting for his granddaughter to go to school. He was already desperate when he heard the girl's loud voice."

???: Grandma, I'm late for school!

Old lady: Good. Rosa, I'm going to cook some food now, but in the meantime, get ready.

Rose: Yeah.

Calm madman: * Finally, progress. I was already thinking of leaving.*

"Rosa got dressed, ate, and went to school."

"The calm madman followed her to school."

---After 24 minutes of running---

"Rosa came running to school and was already standing at the general gathering of students."

Calm madman: * I need to talk to the director. I think he should come out to give instructions to the students, so it's better to observe.*

--- 10 minutes later---

The director???: Congratulations to all new students on admission! You have a long learning path ahead of you. To become worthy people in this world, you should treat both your studies and all students well, regardless of status, age, skills, and education. If you see that someone is violating the rules of the school, please try to resolve the situation and help the violators understand the mistake. If you understand that you cannot cope alone, then call one of the teachers, they will always help you. Once again, congratulations to all of you and good luck in your studies. Hurray!

Everyone: Hooray! *Pause* Hooray!

Calm madman: * I think these are good instructions for newcomers, but what about the rest? Or do they already know everything? Okay, that's not my problem. We must go to the principal.*

"A calm madman made his way into the school through an open window and was looking for the principal's office. He walked around the school until he saw the desired office."

Calm madman: * Since I'm not with bad intentions, then I probably should knock*

"The calm madman knocked, but did not receive a single sound in response and entered the room."

Calm madman: * It's strange that he's not here, I'll wait.*

--- After 2 hours---

"The director??? He enters the office."

Calm madman: Hello. Don't worry, I need to talk to you.

"The director??? I was scared not only of the surprise of seeing and hearing someone here. But also from who he saw."

The director???: * Who he is. Okay, let's say he's someone's father. But he certainly doesn't fit the role of a human being in his appearance, at all. His whole body is covered, as if, with cosmic dust. His face looks like a madman's. All the blood that had already dried was running down his neck. But the smile, with sharp teeth, in the whole mouth, certainly does not inspire confidence.*

"This is exactly the description of a Calm madman made by the director and at the same second he wanted to run out of the office, when he suddenly changed his mind."

The director???: V-v-v-s, say you want to talk. Do I understand correctly?

Calm madman: That's right. I'm not as scary as I look. All I need to do is talk. If you're afraid of me, you can either be far away or call security, but I don't see the point in that.

The director???: X-good. First of all, I'd like to know who you are. You're not someone's father, are you?

Calm madman: That's right, I'm nobody's father. I came only to you. I don't have a name, but I was given the nickname 'Calm Madman' from birth. You can call me by my nickname or something else. I know you're the director, but what's your name?

The director???: Fine. I'll call you by your nickname. My name is Ardo, Self Ardo. What question or problem did you come for?

Calm madman: Self, I have come to get permission to view the smart students who have just enrolled. I will say right away that it is not for any bad intentions or for something bad. I have come to find an intelligent person who will be a translator for my brother.

Director Self A.: Well, I heard you. I'm giving you permission. But why does your brother need a translator, can you explain?

Calm madman: Of course I can. My brother, although he was recently recreated, but he cannot see and cannot speak. To do this, he needs a translator.

Director Self A.: Let me ask you, if your brother can't speak, then he communicates with gestures, right?

Calm madman: No, he's not dumb, as you thought. He can communicate telepathically, through touching a person.

Director Self A.: It's clear. I will not go into details about your situation with your brother. But how are you going to find a student? In this form, you will not be allowed to enter the office, but they will not let you into the school.

Calm madman: Huh. You haven't seen it yet. Watch me watch.

"A calm madman created a portal in the upper corner of the office and in the wall. He walked up to the wall and tilted his head slightly into the portal. As a result, he saw everything that was happening in the office and only his nose and eyes were visible."

Director Self A.: I understand. Then come back tomorrow and watch from my office.

Calm madman: Okay, but I'd rather stay here. At night, I will set up portals in the offices and in this office. Please leave the school plan.

Director Self A.: Okay, now.

"Principal Self A. found the school's plan and left it on the table."

Director Self A.: There will be no more classes today. That's why everyone goes home. See you tomorrow!

Calm madman: Goodbye.

"The director left the office. The calm madman began to wait for the night."

--- It got dark 10 hours later---

"A calm madman took a school plan and arranged the portals in the order of class numbers. G-classes are beginners. Of the divided into 3 groups, G-1 is the 1st group, G-2 is the 2nd group, G-3 is the 3rd group. Each group had 4 lessons. The calm madman placed portals in all 12 offices. In the director's office, he also arranged the portals in order. After that, he went to wait for the start of the working day."

--- It's been 7 hours---

"Teachers and students started coming to school. Classes started in 29 minutes. The calm madman was waiting for the director."

---10 minutes of waiting---

"The door to the director's office opened and Director Self A. himself entered."

Calm madman: Good morning, I've been waiting.

Director Self A.: Good morning. As I see it, you're done. The 1st lesson will begin in 18 minutes.

Calm madman: Okay, thanks.

"In his expectation, the Calm madman started reading novels, so he didn't count the time."

--- It's time for lessons---

"The calm madman stood up and started watching the students from the portals."

Calm Madman: *In G-1 class, there may be smart kids, since this is the first set. Soooo. As I understand it, this is a female teacher.*

A math teacher???: Children, congratulations once again on your admission. Today we are going through the topic of calculating the cost of mana for a spell. Who wants to come to the board? Whoever comes out will stand and cast basic spells. And I'll try to name the rest of the units of mana spent.

"The boy from the third desk stood up and waited for permission. The teacher looked at the list of students."

A math teacher???: Vorl, you can talk.

The boy from the third desk: I want to go to the blackboard.

A math teacher???: All right, come out.

"While Worl was coming out to the board."

A calm madman: * If he wants to leave, most likely he is just content with school sometimes and is not suitable for the role of translator. Of all those present, the girl from the 5th desk seemed to me to be smart. Although she doesn't pay attention, she doesn't listen to the teacher. From her hand behavior, you can tell that she is trying to calculate the mana units of each student. Having the ability to sense mana is not, one person does not pay attention to it, thinking that everyone feels it. But she pays attention to mana, so she does not feel it, but calculates, based on the pressure around a classmate, she concludes about the approximate amount of mana. I think I've found the right child.*

"The calm madman pulled his face out of the portal and turned to the director."

The calm madman: I found the student we need.

Director Self A.: OK. What class is it?

Calm madman: Class G-1, 5th desk, girl.

Director Self A.: OK. I'll go get her now.

Calm madman: It's not worth it. Just ask the teacher to come over after class.

Director Self A.: Yes, I will do that.

"Director Self A. went to class G-1 of the 1st lesson. As soon as the director arrived, he knocked 4 times. The noise from the classroom stopped and the math teacher came out of the office."

A math teacher???: Yes, Self Ardo. Did you want something?

Director Self A.: Yes, after the lesson, ask the girl from the 5th desk to come to my office after all today's lessons.

A math teacher???: It will be done. Have a nice day.

Director Self A.: OK. Thank you.

"The director returns to his office, where the Calm Madman was already waiting."

Director Self A.: Calm madman, I have arranged, she will arrive in about 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Calm madman: Thank you, fine.

"There was silence in the director's office. Even though there was a man and the progenitor's son there. They haven't made a sound in 3 hours."

--- After 19 minutes---

"There was a knock on the office."

Director Self A.: Come in.

???: Hello.

Director Self A.: Hi, I called you at his request.

"The director pointed with his palm turned up at the Calm Madman."

Director Self A.: Don't be afraid, he's a good man. He wants to talk to you.

???: X-X.

"The girl was almost speechless from what she saw. Her thoughts coincided with the thoughts of the director when he saw him for the first time. She was afraid not only to approach, but even to lift a finger. She froze. Having plucked up the courage, she still spoke."

???: Good...

Calm madman: Hello. Don't be afraid, I just need to talk to you. What's your name? I don't have a name, but I have a nickname "Calm Madman", call me whatever you want.

???: D-dda. My name is Chlori.

Calm Madman: A beautiful name. What are you standing for, sit down.

"The calm madman put his hand in the place next to him."

"Chlori, trembling with fear, was slowly approaching the Calm Madman. When she sat down next to him, he asked her a question."

The calm madman: Do you live far away? Do you have parents?

Chlori: I live far away, so I live in a dorm. I have parents, but they are at home.

Calm madman: Good. Can you tell me where your parents live?

Chlori: They live in a town north of here. Behind the fortress "Life".

The calm madman: I understood. Look, I'd like to talk to your parents. Why don't we go see them tomorrow after your lessons?

Chlorine: It's impossible. It's very far away.

Calm madman: I see. And where is this city located?

Chlorine: In the very south of this country. It's 176 kilometers to my house, which is 30 hours by cart.

Calm madman: Thanks for the information. Then tomorrow we'll go to your house. No questions asked now. Just come here after tomorrow's lessons.

Chlori: Okay?

"Chlori left the office with surprise and disbelief after what was said."

Director Self A.: Why didn't you tell her anything?

The calm madman: And why? Let them be surprised.

Director Self A.: Your right.

--- It's been 23 hours and 40 minutes---

"There was a knock on the door."

Director Self A.: Come in.

"Chlori came into the office."

Calm madman: Here, put on the blindfold. The director gave me a map, we'll use it to get there.

Chlori: X-okay?

"Chlori put on a bandage. The calm madman left the school through the window. Using teleportation, he jumped from one place to another until he reached the city."

Calm madman: That's it, you can take it off. Is this the same city?

Chlori: A. What? What? How did we end up here? Yes, that's exactly it. This is my native Greenline.

Calm madman: If so, then take me to my parents, we still have to get back.

Chlori: Good! But how did you do it?

"The calm madman put his hand to his mouth and made a gesture of silence."

The Calm Madman: A secret. But you'll recognize him when I talk to your parents.

Chlori: Good! Let's go!

"Chlori took the Calm Madman by the hand and hopped him home. They walked for 20 minutes. And all these 20 minutes, the residents looked and were afraid to approach them and were afraid for Chlorine, but did nothing."

Chlorine: We came. This is my house.

"A calm madman saw an old, slightly overgrown house. Soon, he came over and knocked. Chlori went to the door. The door opened a crack. Chlori's mom ran out and hugged her daughter. She was crying. After a while, she started swearing. Not noticing the Calm Madman, she stood with her back to him and therefore could not see him at all."

Chlori's mom: Chlori, what are you doing here? You should be at school. Or have you already been kicked out? Well, what kind of child is that? They recently enrolled and have already been kicked out...

"The calm madman leaned over to Chlori's mother and put his hand on her shoulder."

Calm madman: Hello, I brought her. She showed me the way to you.

Chlori's mom: Huh? Hello... AAAAAAH!

"Chlori's mom grabbed Chlori and ran into the house."

Chlori's mom: What? Who is it? Why did he come? What did he do to you?

Chlori: Nothing, he wanted to talk to you.

"Chlori's mother did not listen to her daughter. She was in a fit of fear. Soon, a calm madman knocked on the door. Chlori went to open the door for him."

Chlori's mom: Daughter, stop! Don't open it to him!

"Chlori opened the door and the Calm madman entered."

Calm madman: Hello again. Perhaps you misunderstood me. As your daughter said, I came to talk. Where is your husband?

Chlori's mom: who are you? GET OUT OF HERE!

Calm madman: Until I see both parents, I won't say anything about myself or my intentions.

Chlori's mom: Chlori, come here. We'll escape through the window, and you'll go to Dad and warn him. Next is the 'Escape' plan.

Chlorine: No. Please listen to him.

Chlori's mom: Well-nnn-n-well, okay.

Calm madman: Once again, I ask you to tell me where your husband is?

Chlori's mom: He's at work. It will arrive in 2 hours.

Calm madman: Good.

"Chlori took the Calm Madman by the hand and took him to the hotel. As soon as they entered, the Calm Madman saw: a wooden, round table with 3 of 4 legs, a chair without a back and curtains. There was nothing else in the living room."

Chlori: Make yourself comfortable here for now.

Calm madman: Good.

"A calm madman entered the room and sat down in the farthest corner of the room."

--- It's been almost 2 hours---

"The calm madman just sat there. In fact, the girls did not know that he was meditating. Through meditation, waiting is accelerated, since you don't feel the time, and so he relieved the feeling of insanity."

"Suddenly, the sound of the door opening sounded. A man entered the house. The calm madman thought that he looked about 30-40 years old. A beard, a receding hairline and a cane. The cane must have been bought a very, very long time ago, as the black paint has almost completely peeled off."

???: Hello everyone, I'm here.

Chlori: Hi Dad, and we have guests.

Chlori's dad: Chlori, what are you doing here and who are the other guests?

Chlori: Come on, he'll tell you everything. Ma-ma! Let's go!

"Chlori and her parents went to the hotel, where the Calm Madman was already waiting for them."

Calm madman: Hello. Sit down and I'll start the story.

Chlori's dad: Chloride, k-who is this?

Chlori: Don't whisper in my ear. I already told you, he'll tell you everything.

"The whole family sat on the floor, except for the father, who sat on a chair."

Calm madman: And so. I don't have a name, but from birth I was given the nickname from the progenitor "Calm Madman". I don't want to do anything wrong, not to you, not to your daughter. I would like to negotiate with you about your daughter Chlori's job.
