Arselan System: AI Controller
Chapter 039: Farm

"Your research terminated?" Magister Snoug who was driving his flying car expressed disbelief.

"Yes, for the time being, we're stopping him," Ats gave a small nod. Today, Magister Snoug again took him outside the academy. More precisely, to a large area that is a farming complex.

That place was quite far from the academy. With a flying car, it takes almost an hour to get there. In fact, the speed is three times faster than a regular car.

"But, you're still using your system, right?" Magister Snoug was hopeful. Today's lesson is in dire need of that device.

"I always wear it," Ats nodded back. He also looked outside. A vast meadow was seen in his view. There are a lot of farm animals down there. Uniquely, the herders in the field are sophisticated droids that are controlled from afar.

"Master, why are we coming to the farm?" ask Ats curious. The car they were riding in kept on going constant over the farmland.

"Ats, do you know?" instead of answering, Magister Snoug asked, "Most great leaders in the past had a history of being herdsmen. They learned a lot from his simple job. This job is not as bad as you think. He has a lot of leadership wisdom."

Ats watched those words well. If you think about it well, the word is not wrong. Being a leader means protecting others and that can be learned here.

"You must have understood what I meant when you left earlier, right?" Magister Snoug stopped his car, then lowered it slowly. "We're going to be herding today."

"Hm, I understand," Ats rivalled a round of knotty smiles. The car door is open. As soon as they came out, an old man with all his hair grayed welcomed their arrival.

"Oh-oh, look who's coming," said the old man, "Have not seen you in a long time, Little hick. Ah, naw. Should I call you Magister Snoug now? You even have students."

"For so long, Old Man Chung," replied Magister Snoug with a friendly smile on his lips. "You look healthy even though you're getting older, yeah."

"Hi, Little Boy," Old Man Chung pointed his staff at Magister Snoug with a fierce face, "Do not think this old man is weak to age. On this farm, there's no one better than me."

"Yes, of course," Magister Snoug did not dispute it. That means, the magister acknowledged the great Old Man Chung's ability. "You are the one who managed to defend this farm from the crisis in the past."

"Hmph, it's just a small thing. It was clearly different from the boy who only knew how to riot. Ck! Basic," Old Man Chung also looked at Ats who had been silently watching. "Oi, the hick boy. Who is this young man? He looks more dignified than you."

"Old Master," Magister Snoug tried to maintain his smile as best he could. If only Ats was not here, of course he would serve the old man's nonsense. He must maintain the dignity of an educator in front of his students. "Please respond to his condition, Old Man. I came as a representative of the academy, not a hick kid who likes to interfere with your daily life. Please do not put to heart my deeds in the past. I'm still the young leaf first."

"Heh, hypocrite," Old Man Chung sneered, "This is not your usual real face, is it, sly boy? Even when you called me yesterday, you weren't acting like this."

"I'm sorry" Magister Snoug did not wish to prolong this useless debate. His pride as a magister would be further shattered if this continued. "Let me introduce, he is my special disciple, Atsuria Asir."

"Oh, that boy from the Asir Family," Old Man Chung was bearded, "It's only fitting that you be so calm. Your family is really good at educating the next generation. My name is Chung Hoo. I like a quiet kid like you. Just call me Grandpa Chung."

Old Man Chung approached him. His eyes glanced at Magister Snoug. "Oi, you have to be careful with that hick boy. He can pass on the bad to you."

"Old Brother Chung, I can hear that whisper," Magister Snoug was eager to hit the old man, but was snuffed out because there was Ats. After all, he might have trouble dealing with it. With that frail old appearance, no one would have thought that Old Man Chung was a former leading Zarahian Master of his day.

"I think he's a good teacher" Ats gave his view. "In the academy, he was one of the most proud."

"You hear that, Old Man?" Magister Snoug felt the victory. As he expected, Old Man Chung even more sneered, "Heh, a hick boy like you, what do you want to be proud of?"

"Many things," Magister Snoug replied without losing momentum. He clapped his hands so that the unfriendly welcome was over. "Old Man, let's start the practice immediately."

"You're right," Old Man Chung nodded, "Anyway, son. You mustn't imitate the hick boy's attitude."

"Ekhem! We can start spreading, right, Old Man?" Magister Snoug started to grow furious, but still suppressed his emotions.

"Just start," Old Man Chung waved his hand, "I've prepared your practicum tools in the ward. You can wear it as you please."

"Thank you for your concern," Magister Snoug paid his respects, but Old Man Chung was feeling uneasy instead. Before actually leaving, the old man said one more thing that was almost forgotten.

"Take care of my things! Let nothing be broken. I've taken great pains to buy those irons," he said, "Also, don't make my cattle so noisy because of you. Little hick, you must teach that Asir boy well. Don't let my cattle die."

"It won't be that bad," joked Magister Snoug with a nosy smile on his face, "Maybe it's just a little convulsing the next few days."

"This hick ...!" Old Man Chung was almost angry. However, the old man knew that Magister Snoug was only teasing him. He left immediately because he was tired of the man.

"Did you often make him angry first?" ask Ats wonder.

"That's a beautiful past. He is a grumpy old man. You don't have to think about words. Well, even though he was also kind, sometimes," Magister Snoug also invited Ats to the ward that Old Man Chung meant. The ward looked very ordinary with its wooden walls. There is no security system to protect it at all. Well, it was just a temporary warehouse anyway.

Once inside the ward, Arselan immediately detected various devices droid type. Those are herding droids of the past generation. While not the best, this was enough for Ats training.

"I've got a few tricks from Professor Han," Magister Snoug tilted with a smile, "Follow me to link those droids to your system."

"Good, Magister," Ats according to.

"It's a legalizer" said Magister Snoug, pointing out a small device the size of a cell phone, "I hear that, to be able to control the device, the system must be able to recognize the legality of the device, right? Well, it's like registering a device anyway. After I register these droids with the legislator, try to control them. We'll go straight to the field later."
