Chapter 1797 Planning Days passed in a flash, and soon, it was the eve prior to the day their Baymardian guests had to leave. Many people had different emotions, some deep, some shallow. The eve was as grand as expected. Their music, dance, battle prowess display and beating drums made the Baymardians stand and clap in amazement. Bravo! Bravo! It was always awesome to watch traditional dances and entertainment from others. "Damn, their mask dance is amazing. Just how did that girl break a watermelon with her thighs mid-air?" "Wow! I wonder what those white paw print marks on their chest mean. Why do I feel like it makes their men look more sexy? Well, in the first place, they have good bodies." Both Baymardian men and women agreed on this matter. How good-looking and well-built the people here were. It almost seemed as though they were highly favored by the heavens compared to any other place in the world. Well, they say beauty is a big motivator. Many secretly swore to fully learn the Mirv language in no time to talk to them properly. You have to know that since the day they left Baymard's shores, they have spent weeks and weeks studying the Mirv language under Landon. They might still not be able to form good sentences yet, but they could identify certain words like what the Mirvvs call a chair, table, cup and so on. Like any language, they first learned certain vital matters like pronouns. I, you, we, their and all that was what they focused on. Past tense, present tense, future tense… All these helped them pick out a few things here and there. But this was far from enough. That's why the money they began interacting with these Mirvs and started trying to speak Mirv. Of course, it was a disaster. But you know what, when they point at a certain way and move their hands around like dummies, the Mirvs would understand their intentions. "Oh? You mean a chair?" "Do you want to use the bathroom?" "Are you rubbing your belly because you are hungry?" The Mirvs would pick up their thoughts and they in turn will capture the words they speak. If you throw a man in a foreign land, soon, that man will be forced to learn how to speak like a foreigner. The Baymardians were happy they had another month and a few weeks before reaching Baymard by ship. This way, won't they learn a lot from the Mirvs like this? It's really good. (^v^) . Likewise, Landon has also planned on teaching the Mirvs Pyron. If they know Pyron. It will be equivalent to learning Vein and Morg. Anyway, he didn't expect them to be awesome, but at least they should be able to understand a few things when they get to Baymard. While there he will also continue giving them lessons. Did you know that in most newly-signed treaty territories, whenever he sent teachers to head back and teach Pyro in various empires, most people passed the Beginner stage after just 3 months of learning? Some indeed take up to 5 and even 6 months to be classified as a Beginner in the language, but others a majority of it in 3 months before progressing to the intermediate stage. So if he gives them 1 month and 2 weeks of constant language courses, won't they be always through the usual 3-month learning curve? He wasn't saying all of them will get to the Beginner stage in 3 months, but people in power train their brains far harder than peasants, which says a lot about how intelligent this era was. If ordinary peasants can remember every little detail on the roads and even use their shadows and other objects to calculate hourly time so frequently, imagine how those in power were? The need and thirst for knowledge was this era's greatest advantage. They can't do without it. They are constantly looking for more information to fill their brains, no matter how much technology Landon creates. This is also something Landon noticed. Baymard has the internet, but the youths aren't lazy. Landon had ensured that although things are made easy for them, they must also use their brains regularly. He truly believes that a world that solely relies on technology will fail. What if the apocalypse arrives and you lose everything, all books and all technology? Then will you go back to caveman periods? For this era to enter the Galactic era before he does, they must always keep that throat of knowledge alive. This much he understood. He always felt that Earth should have long entered the Galactic era, but were too reliant on technology. Even with the internet available, many people give stupid answers to well-known questions. How can Africa be a country? How can you say Japan is in South America? Are you sure you're okay in the head? If it were people in this era who studied maps like crazy, they would even know the road to a stranger's house by heart. . Anyway, with enough time aboard the ship and nothing else to do but to have peaceful travels, Landon planned to dedicate his time to teaching. And on certain days, the Mirvs and everyone else must only speak Pyron. On other days, everyone else must speak Mirv. He will be giving class assignments and marking them too. Don't think because they were on the high seas that he won't take it seriously. As for now, everyone was eating and enjoying the entertainment with warm smiles. Delicious! What was this food? What sort of animal was this giant bird they were eating? On the tables were enormous birds that had been cooked and stuffed with all sorts of vegetables. Thanks to the Baymardian spices gifted to them, the cooks who had a taste of the spaces were quick to experiment, only to have shocked looks in the end. How can adding these spices make such big differences? Suddenly, they felt everything they had been eating before was raw. While the Baymardians on the tables were enjoying the strange stringy meat, the Mirvs on the other hand enjoyed new flavors they never had before. Dammit, it was all too good. The celebrations went on for a while until it was finally time to turn in for the night. Many also left early, planning to say farewell to a few others before the morning came. A list had long been drawn, and the Mirvs who were heading for Baymard, had long prepared. Everyone going was allowed to bring their families along. Great! (>V<) Time to see the foreign land!
