Chapter 240: Classes Part 1

"That is blasphemy! " A noble yelled out, causing me to smile. This idiot was just wanting to leap out there and call out Bill, who was already a person who could care less for noble status.

"Oh? So are you saying a commoner should just sit there and be harassed by nobles!?" Bill yelled back, causing the young man who had yelled out to slowly sit down.

The young man cleared his throat as he replied: "I am just saying.  Why should a commoner have the right to kill a noble?"

"Hmmm. Let's have Faith answer your question. Faith, why would a commoner want to kill a noble?" I do not know why this man was trying to involve me, but I personally did not care.

I stood up and turned to the young man. "It's simple. From what I have seen from the perspective of someone who used to be a commoner, nobles do as they please. They see a commoner girl, and they will force them to their bed, use them and then toss them away. Sometimes even kill them to keep them silent. Now before you go and start yelling, that is not true…." I paused as I saw the young man's face grow red with anger. I smiled and then continued: "Not every noble is as such. There are actually quite a few good nobles out there who adhere to their duties as nobles and try to assist the commoners. I will not deny this. But…. A good portion of nobles have it in their heads that commoners are just tools of amusement.

"Let me ask you this, and please give an honest answer." I cut the young man off before he could rebuke me. "If let's say A noble of higher standing came into your house and ripped your sister out of her bedroom or came to your home and began taking your things. Your wealth, your money, everything, and then when you tried to take them to court, and the courts sided with them even though you have so much evidence, what do you think would happen after?"

"This…." The young man was at a loss for words. I could see it in his eyes that he never thought of imagining it while in the other's shoes. "The noble would probably cause issues for the person who took them to court…." He was reluctant to answer, but it seemed he was a person who was honest.

"Exactly. And since the court was unwilling to do anything on your behalf and now that you are being harassed non stop what would be your only option left? You have already lost everything. You have nothing else to lose, so what would be your final option? Because even if you tried to move, you would need to move out of the kingdom itself to find peace, but what then? The sister who was taken is now suffering in your place. The family members who might have been jailed for no reason out of the noble's revenge are rotting away being abused in jail. But you ran to escape it all. What else do you have now?

"If you can still live with the guilt of leaving everyone behind, then that is fine, but most people would not. They would stay and try to help their loved ones, but when all else fails, what option would you have left when the whole world is against you?" I asked, my eyes staring at the young man. His eyes fixated on me, and after a few moments of us staring at each other, he slouched his shoulders and bowed his head. "Instructor Bill, I apologize for my outburst."

"Haha! No worries, but now I am wondering if I should even be teaching." Bill turned and looked at me. I pursed my lips and looked the other way. I heard him chuckle before he continued: "At any rate, what Faith said is correct. While what I said is wrong, and I hope it never comes to that, the fact of the matter remains. In such situations where it is noble or commoner, it is all the same. Because I know of some nobles, who have suffered as well in the same manner."

"Alright, let's continue." Bill then began going over what it means to be a knight. He talked about chivalry and how a knight does not work for the kingdom but for the people within the kingdom and other things of this manner.

After Bill's class, there was a thirty minute break. I split from the others, and only Sally, Sei, and Sophie were at my side.  I walked out to the yard next to the building I was in to take a seat under the still mild suns. But just as I closed my eyes to relax, a voice came from my side. "Ummm…."

I opened my eyes to see the young man I was one sidedly debating with earlier standing there with red cheeks. "Yes?" I asked while tilting my head to the side.

"I umm… I want to apologize." The young man suddenly bowed his head. "Earlier, when you walked into the classroom, I was gazing at you the same way as the other nobles. My father had instructed me to give you a hard time, but I can not do that now that I have had my eyes opened up a little. The things you said earlier, I could not denounce a single thing. Everything you said is right, and when I thought about my own behavior up until this point, I began to feel ashamed of my own actions because I was acting just like you said myself. While I have yet to cross the line as to do anything drastic as described, I have treated commoners in a way that made me look down on them as if they were bugs. But now I have seen that I was acting more like a villain than anything else."

"I see. Well, I am glad you understand it is wrong now. So in the future, just treat others the way you wish to be treated." I answered with a smile. But for some reason, the young man blushed even more. I tilted my head in confusion, not understanding his reaction.

"Mmm, I will do as you say. I need to go now. I do hope we can talk again soon!" The young man said before leaving but stopped when he only got a couple of feet. "Oh yeah, my name is Riley, Riley Thromson."
