God's Apostle: Rebirth of a Lazy Genius

The whole White Family heaved a sigh of relief as Earlene told them her decision to stay in the Dukedom for a year or two and properly educate Ethan on various matters of intellect and politics.

Besides that, he would be taught matters of state and military by Grandpa White who was a Duke himself in his younger days and quite the successful one too.

On the other hand, Aisha would teach him subjects of Religion and morality as well as the Noble Code of Conduct which include mannerisms and teachings on how a nobleman should behave in different scenarios.

Ethan was very surprised to know that the educational system in the world of Akarxia was quite advanced. He was especially surprised by the subject 'Morality' in his curriculum.

But it was understandable considering that the history of the so-called 'Disgraced One' and the 'Gods of Sins' was true.

A few days had passed since Ethan told Earlene about his truth and just as expected, Earlene began teaching him the ways of the world of Akarxia.

There was a lot to learn and Ethan was all in for it. Everyone else thought that this was nothing but a formality and that Ethan wasn't the Scholar type.

Only one person was getting frustrated by this evaluation of Ethan and that was Earlene as she had gotten first-hand experience of Ethan's monstrous intellect.

'Fools! Such ignorant fools! This guy is a monster in flesh living among them and they don't even realize it! I cannot fathom why Ethan is playing dumb like this,' Earlene would often think along these lines whenever she stepped out of Ethan's chambers after the lesson.

And who could blame her? Ethan truly was a monstrous genius or at least in her eyes he was as she didn't know that his mental age was far from seven. She had to constantly listen to slanders being spoken about him and that frustrated her to no end.

She even thought of retorting against such slanders openly but Ethan had warned her with his intimidating gaze that under no circumstances she be allowed to reveal anything.

Earlene found out in the second session that Ethan had almost mastered the Atrainese Language all by himself. When she tried to teach him maths it only took him five days to completely understand the numerical system and he was easily able to solve complex maths problems easily.

It was just too easy for him as the maths in Akarxia wasn't as developed as on earth and thus it wasn't even five percent of what he had to deal with in his School Days. Long story short, maths was only usable for counting and Trade in Akarxia so it was no challenge for him.

Things such as politics and geography proved to be a bit challenging but Ethan adapted quickly and began sucking up all the knowledge as if he was a black hole.

The biggest headache for him was the Noble Code of Conduct, Morality, and Religion. He especially despised Etiquette and Mannerisms and as a result, he was even duller during these lessons only affirming his image as a problem child in everyone's minds.

Earlene was, of course, getting more and more dumbstruck by Ethan as the days passed. She also felt like she had struck a gold mine as she thought that someone like Ethan would surely do wonders in the world, Right?

And as his first Tutor, she would automatically gain more influence and not to mention that her bond with Ethan as a teacher-student would also contribute to her advantage.

The truth was that she had begun to admire him greatly as this was the first time she met someone like him.

Although she wouldn't have thought the same if had she known that Ethan had no ambition to become some kind of great person whatsoever.

Worth mentioning that Ethan was also learning literature and arts from Grandma White and did not downplay himself too much this time. He portrayed himself as just average or 'Not Bad' in Music and Calligraphy as well as Literature like poem writing.

This was because there weren't many options to entertain himself besides Arts and he liked playing Flute in his past life as well so he did not want to give up on playing musical instruments. Fortunately for him, there was an instrument called 'Havsri Bamboo' or just 'Havsri' which was similar to Flute.

Ethan always smiled when recalling how happy his Grandma was to know that there was at least something that Ethan was good at.

There was no issue with doing this as Arts and especially 'Havsri Playing' was more popular among Noble Ladies and almost no man showed any interest in Arts although they were taught nonetheless just as a formality.

So if anything, The fact that Ethan was taking interest in music only made Alier look down on him even more and so there was no threat from that side.

Ethan also liked playing Havsri with Naenna who was now 10 years old. She seemed to have taken her promise to Shirin quite seriously as she always tried to look after Ethan and spent a lot of her time with him whenever she was free. She would be quite displeased when the servants talked bad about Ethan behind his back and gave them quite the verbal thrashing.

All in all, she was shaping up to be an excellent, cheerful, caring, and beautiful Young Lady with all the Virtues that Noblewomen in Akarxia were expected to have.

Ethan probably only formed a true familial bond with his Mother and Naenna from the whole White Family. While the bond with his mother was instinctual and on a fundamental basis, his bond with Naenna was purely formed because of how sweet of a sister she was which Ethan appreciated a lot.

Although technically she was his older sister he always considered her as his sweet little sister and she seemed to think the same way for some reason.

It was strange because she treated Ethan as if he was completely normal and without any flaws ignoring what others said as if she somehow knew for a fact that it was the truth. She always said that Ethan was special but no one believed her.

Even Ethan could not decypher how this was possible but he did not get stuck up on it as he figured that it would perhaps be cleared with time.

Ethan's seventh birthday was just around the corner but he did not expect anything major to happen as only his first birthday was celebrated like a major festival and his other birthdays were celebrated just in the Family.

While Ethan's basic education was going on in everyday life. He would eat, shit, learn, write, sleep, and doze off. That was his everyday routine and he was happy with it.

But that would soon change as nothing is constant in this universe. Ethan had no idea of what was coming as he was a genius for sure but not a prophet.

Only Fate and the Future knew what was entailed for him.
