NOVEL NEXT Chapter 14 - The Best Private Tutor
As I left my stepfather’s study, I pondered what to do about another self-centered man: Mr. Ford.
My private tutor was the same as last time.
He was also the worst teacher imaginable.
Despite being of common birth, he entered the noble academy as a scholarship student with his exceptional intellect and graduated.
After graduation, for some reason, he didn’t pursue further education or a career in civil service, but instead found employment as a teacher.
His students were young children before entering the academy.
The noble academy spans six years from thirteen to eighteen.
During this time, it’s common for nobles to receive education from private tutors in their respective homes.
Some may attend other private schools, but such cases are rare among nobility.
Even noble children are just children.
Especially before they begin social interactions like tea parties and gatherings, they are like blank slates, unaware of the harshness of the world.
Moreover, they often struggle with controlling their magic and causing magical rampages.
The point is, educating noble children of this age group is challenging.
Commoners, having fewer individuals with magic, are less likely to cause trouble even when attending school.
However, the majority of nobles possess strong magical abilities.
Emotionally unstable children unconsciously use magic, and in some cases, they can trigger uncontrollable magical rampages.
Hence, they are unable to leave the premises.
Attending an external school is limited to children with weak magic that doesn’t cause outbursts or those who can control their magic.
It could be said that Ford took advantage of the difficulty in handling children of this age group.
This is the mark of a rotten character.
Perhaps Ford harbored resentment towards nobility.
That’s why he adopted an imperious attitude towards noble children.
As a young child at the time, I didn’t realize the extent of it.
It was tantamount to abuse.
Likely, the other students didn’t notice it either at the time.
It’s harsh to expect single-digit age children to understand.
Moreover, considering it was their first teacher, it’s understandable they thought it was normal
He likely sought revenge against the nobility by suppressing those who were supposed to bow to him.
One-on-one tutoring is less likely to be noticed by others.
I devised a plan on how to deal with Ford.
He was once a man who rose to the position of headmaster at the noble academy, considered the pinnacle of education in this era.
He wasn’t involved in my sister’s case.
But he didn’t offer any help either.
He simply watched.
Isn’t turning a blind eye also a sin?
My “Duke’s Heir Education” ended in just three months.
