Chapter 34: Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters

Then, seeing the skill description, it was as if she was recalling a forgotten memory; she even had a picture of the complete Kaiseki. If anything, it was beautiful, seeing so many dishes together in an orderly manner.

Erina's cooking skills only granted her the technical know-how, but Kaiseki was more of a combination of many elements like tea and more.

Now, she could be said to be at the peak of Japanese culinary knowledge and creation.

But even so, the most important thing for Emma was the Teaching Points she obtained. She could buy five to seven skills that were at the peak of humanity.

Still, she didn't buy anything and chose to conserve the Teaching Points; she wasn't in urgent need of anything.

Emma then thought about her schedule for tomorrow. It was something she was very much looking forward to, she was going to Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.

That's right, Emma was going to spend the whole day tomorrow at the Academy.

Just this thought made her a little excited. As strange as it may sound, she had a passion for teaching. It was something she had chosen in her last life without anyone forcing her.

Plus, in the system introduction, it was said that the more important the person she taught was to the world, the more Teaching Points she would earn.

At Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, there would be no lack of people important to the world. Judging from the current X-Men, characters like Rogue, Kitty, and many others who played significant roles in the future of mutants were probably still students.

She wouldn't just earn enough Teaching Points; she would also be able to recruit these potential mutants to join her forces later. It was a simple and crude, but effective plan, at least in her opinion.

...

The next morning, after waking up, she naturally didn't waste time and took her usual bath. Unfortunately, this time, there wasn't Coulson to take her, and she didn't have a car.

Sure, she could spend TP to buy the most luxurious car, plus a driving license and many other things from the system, but she didn't do so because she hadn't reached the point where she could be willful.

Today, Emma was wearing a green blazer over a white V-neck shirt. The shirt had a black trim along the neckline, creating a nice contrast with the light color of the top. The overall outfit gave off a stylish, professional, yet casual vibe, suitable for an outdoor city setting.

Well, it was something that Emma decided to wear after thinking about what kind of relationship she wanted to have with the students. She wanted to have a more casual one.

Emma, who made a last little adjustment in front of the mirror, smiled with a little nostalgia. It had always been like this in her last life.

Anyway, she left her house and walked leisurely, enjoying the cool morning air. Then, when she noticed many passersby looking at her, that's when she recalled she was a little celebrity now.

Emma could only sigh and use the Transformation Technique. She didn't change anything apart from making her face look a little more mature.

It was only then that Emma made her way to the bus stop without any problems, blending in with the crowd much easier now that her appearance was less recognizable.

Professor X's academy was set up after coming to an agreement with the government, but to normal people, it was just a prestigious university in the USA that only accepted specially talented students.

The school really had a big campus. Just from seeing the outskirts on the bus, you could tell what a big deal it must be to study there.

After stepping off the bus, she was the only one who got off at the stop, making people wonder what she was doing. After all, the school was renowned for being a little strict and not accepting any visitors under normal circumstances.

Emma could feel their surprise, but at this time, she herself was surprised. What was in front of her should not be called a school but a fortress.

She doubted that even normal military forces would be able to raid this place, even if the X-Men and students weren't using their powers.

At the same time, Emma deactivated the Transformation Technique and returned to her normal appearance to avoid any misunderstandings.

After walking a little, Emma saw that someone was already waiting for her. It was Ororo Munroe. This time, she wasn't in the X-Men outfit but in normal clothes.

She was dressed in a casual white shirt that matched her hair color and jeans. To be honest, Emma was curious about what version of Ororo this was, but she wasn't pressed; this was something she would eventually figure out.

She was greeted by Ororo: "Good morning, Emma. You're a little early."

Emma replied, "Good morning, Ororo. Well, you know, I'm excited about teaching. I've always liked teaching students and couldn't help but get excited just thinking about it."

In fact, since their meeting last time, she and Ororo had already dropped the formalities and were speaking more casually. This was also the reason Ororo had been sent to welcome her.

Along the way, they continued discussing, with mostly Storm introducing the school to her.

As it was still a little early, class hadn't started yet. The students were just there playing with each other, although their way of playing was a little special.

They were using their superpowers. In a basketball game she saw, she almost thought they were professional players.

Storm noticed Emma's curiosity and said, "The students you see here are all mutants. Their way of playing is a little special, but what can they do? They didn't choose to become mutants but can only accept it."

"This makes most of them a little mischievous, and you see, almost all of them have suffered some trauma when awakening their powers, like being called monsters and suddenly being forced to cut contact with their families."

Emma nodded. Although the situation of mutants in this universe wasn't great, it wasn't as bad as in many others. At least she judged that Sublime didn't exist, and some humans in this universe were trying to accept mutants for what they were.

Anyway, Emma was confident that, sooner or later, she could make the situation between humans and mutants less tense. She just needed to accumulate her strength slowly and wait. With strength, things would eventually go the way she wanted them to.

In short, after being led on a tour of the academy by Storm, they arrived at Charles's office.

Storm said, "Professor Xavier is waiting for you in his office. Don't worry and relax."

In front of a door with a distinctive "X" insignia, Storm knocked lightly, and a familiar voice responded.

"Come in."
