Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

"What are you doing here, Miss Jyon?"

Sam asked as he looked at Jyon who is sitting along with the kids. There are five boys and five girls and she is playing around with them.

Jyon looked at Sam and smiled.

"Mr. Sam, my sister assigned these kids to me. I was going to teach music to them for a few months. But she said that you are going to teach them something for a while."

"I would be teaching something for them for a while. It takes a few months. Tell me where you are staying, I would send the kids over after I am done with their lessons. It would take a lot of time."

"No, it is okay. I will just wait. I already promised them that I would spend some time with them this time. But suddenly your classes came up. So, I would just sit in the classes if you do not mind."

Sam didn't know what to say about that. He knew that this was something Giyon deliberately cooked up and from Jyon's expression, he could see that she is a bit uncomfortable staying with him.

He thought for a moment and asked her with intrigue.

"Are you staying here because you are afraid about what I would teach them?"

Jyon's face was flustered in surprise as she lowered her head. Sam chuckled and continued.

"You can stay if you want. But I assure you, I am not teaching them how to become genocidal maniacs. I am pretty sure the world has enough of them."

With that, both of them walked into a bigger room with the children following them.

That is the training room and it has big enough space for Sam to demonstrate and explain things. He took out some formation plates and recording crystals which he prepared for this class specifically. With the simulator almost there and currently can already project his thoughts outside, he doesn't have to worry too much about the contents of the lessons.

In fact, he can even do three-dimensional modeling in the simulator currently and it helped him prepare for the lessons faster.

After setting everything up, Sam started teaching them the very basics. The basics regarding the materials in the surroundings, how the materials are affected in various conditions. He taught them about the solids liquids and gases, the molecules, and how atoms make up every one of them.

He just drilled them with basics and then related that to the study of spiritual energy and elemental energy about how it is also made up of small energy particles.

He then related the elements and how the elemental energies that are being controlled by the cultivators modify the surrounding objects and environment.

He didn't hold back on the lessons and the projections really helped him as the kid's really liked what they are seeing. But Sam must say that these kids are really sheltered compared to the kids he met back in desolate and other lower realms.

These guys clearly didn't see the cruelty of the world yet and of course, it is because of the average cultivation level here. These kids even if they were left on the road, no one would bother doing much to them. They don't have anything to offer.

If a fifteen-year-old kid is living well in a desolate without anyone helping him or backing him, killing him would bring some profit, but here the average cultivator on the road wouldn't get anything from them and the cultivators of below-average strength wouldn't dare do anything because of the laws.

If these kids were to be left on the streets, the most they would have to worry about is starving to death because of the lack of food, apart from that, they don't have to worry about anything.

They are really more innocent than the kids he was used to.

This also made it easier for him to teach these guys. They are very eager and curious to learn. They don't have this sense of urgency. They know they have all the time in the world and they know they are safe.

It is a bit refreshing to Sam as well, as he taught them carefully.

After he was done with the lesson for that day, he gave them the recording crystals of the lesson and told them to go through it by themselves later.

Jyon who sat through the whole lesson was surprised how well Sam is doing with the kids. He was interactive, he smiled a lot and even took some silly questions from the kids without being annoyed.

She was surprised, to say the least.

Sam looked at the kids and said.

"You would have another lesson tomorrow. Don't forget to study what I taught you today."

"Yes Sir." The kids all answered in Unison and Sam smiled at them.

He walked to Jyon with the same smile and said.

"You can take them back now. Bring them back tomorrow at the same time. In fact, it would be better if you don't come and send them to someone else. It would just be a waste of time."

"No problem, as I said, I promised them to spend some time, so I would come by myself."

Sam just shrugged and walked away, but before he did, he looked at her flute one more time.

For the next week, the kids came on time, and Jyon came along with them. Sam gave them different lessons.

On the seventh day, he taught them about the water element and how versatile it can be. He didn't particularly teach them how to use water elements for attacks, he just showed them what the properties of water are how the water is conjured by the cultivators how it can be manipulated and how easily and accurately it could be manipulated if anyone concentrated on the water molecules as the blocks and constructed the model of everything they want to make.

After he was done, he looked at the kids and asked.

"Think of something you want to manipulate the water into if you are a water elemental user. Try to draw it and show it to me. I will tell you how plausible it is. But remember, the thing you are making the water into should be useful for something. It needs to have practical application."

With that, he took off and started drinking some fruit juice on the side as he looked at the kid's brainstorm.

Jyon who is standing on the side came towards him and asked.

"I am surprised you gave them such an assignment."

"Why? Are you sure that I am going to teach them how to kill in different ways with the water element?"

Jyon was stumped for a moment and didn't know what to answer.

"Don't worry. I know how you feel. It is not new for me." He said to reassure her.

"What is not new for you?"

"People think that I am a cold-blooded killer and doesn't care anything else but killing."

"So, you are used to being misunderstood?"

"I never said they are misunderstanding me. I am a cold-blooded murderer. It is just that there is a bit more to me than being a killer. As you saw, I am a decent teacher."

"Why didn't you teach them the direct applications? I heard that you have quite a few ways to kill."

"Everyone can be a killer Ms. Jyon. If you ask me, apart from the emotional burden on one's mentality, it is the most versatile job as there are many ways to do it. But there are some things that only a few people can become. Like musicians, painters, sculptors, architects, blacksmiths, healers, and many more.

If I teach them how to kill now, they might never realize what they could have been apart from the killer and I am never one to do that."

"But wouldn't battle insights be more useful for them in the future? After all, this is the world of cultivation. It is survival of the fittest our there, they might benefit from it. They have little backing unlike me to save themselves and explore their talents."

"Of course, I could teach them how to kill, but as I said, it is the most versatile task. You can do anything you want. This task not only helps me understand their talents, it also helps me understand the way they think and we don't know their elemental affinities, so it is no use for them to know how to kill now.

They have a lot of time."

"So, you are planning to teach them how to kill?"

"Yes. I am going to teach them how to use every element as flexibly as possible and they can decide on how to use them as they like."

"Where did you learn this way to teaching?"

"My teachers taught me that way. At least some things and after that I started learning that way."

"You are really good at this. Maybe you are just as good at music like my sister said."

"As I said, that is not my best skill."

"How does it fare when it is compared to your teaching?"

"I think I am better with teaching. I mean, I have a lot to teach and many ways to teach as well.. There is only so much I could do in music."
