Return of the 10th Circle Archmage

“How are you in school today?”

I visited my alma mater after a long time to check the situation on site as well.

“Thanks to you, a lot has changed.”

Teacher Lim Chang-yong answered her with a bitter smile.

In fact, the last time I went to bomb my alma mater, the whole school was in turmoil after dropping a bigger nuke on the education world.

“I really didn’t know I was going to do this...”

When I first returned home, I had the mindset to eat well and live well with my family.

However, as I became more and more connected with the people around me, I started helping them, and as I received help, my base gradually expanded.

'The enemy has also increased...'

There are a lot of enemies who will get in the way when you try to do anything, so after hitting them all, you have reached the top spot.

Officially, the president of the United States would be the best, but informally, no one followed me.

While I was lost in thought for a moment, Lim Chang-yong, who took a sip of her coffee, spoke again.

“The atmosphere at school has changed a lot. Companies are actively collaborating to nurture professional talents than before, and students study harder and participate in classes because of performance pay.”

“It’s so nice.”

The school was running as I and Minister Yoo Ha-eun had hoped for.

'At first, there will be a lot of backlash, but in the end it was supposed to go like this...'

The students, who used to just live without a purpose, are now in the age of artificial intelligence and have come to realize that if they do not work hard from an early age, they will be slaughtered.

'In the future, there will be fewer and fewer jobs for people to do...'

Whether most of the work that had been done manually was greatly simplified during the 1st and 3rd industrial revolutions, many jobs will now be replaced by artificial intelligence in the 4th industrial revolution era.

‘Then what should we learn in the age of artificial intelligence?’

Not all existing jobs will disappear.

There will still be chicken houses, technicians, doctors, and other professions.

However, it is highly likely that the number will decrease or people will flock to new jobs.

‘No one knows how the world will change in the future, but in the end the facts go the way people want them to be…’

No matter how good the technology and how comfortable it was, in the end, the world had to go the way people wanted it to be.

“As directed by the Ministry of Education, from the end of the semester, we are gradually increasing the number of classes based on the new system.”“What about subjects like 3D printers, artificial intelligence, or drones?”

"okay."

To nurture technicians for new jobs in the future.

That was what the school was going to do.

“We are either avoiding simple jobs that artificial intelligence or robots can do, or we are conducting classes in a way that can be done collaboratively with artificial intelligence.”

Mr. Chang-Yong Lim said that one artificial intelligence teacher for each teacher was distributed to help them with their work, which she liked very much.

'The teachers Jeon Seon-yeon, who were vehemently opposed to Minister Yoo Ha-eun at first, are also equipped with artificial intelligence robots...?'

She shut her mouth and quietly heard that artificial intelligence robots were being introduced one by one.

“Artificial intelligence organizes class achievements for each student and helps teachers a lot with grades and other macro tasks, so teachers have a lot less work to do. It's all thanks to you, Junhyuk. Hahaha."

“What am I? It's really hard for me.”

I joked like that, and laughed along with the teacher.

"Hello everyone. I’m Baek Han-gil, a construction worker who is commonly referred to as a ‘labourer’.”

“Wow!”

In addition to artificial intelligence teachers, each school had time to teach the students by directly inviting craftsmen from each industry.

“Even with artificial intelligence and artificial intelligence in today’s world, it is the construction workers that are difficult to be replaced at the site, folks!”

“Wow!”

Baek Han-gil pounded his chest, shouting whether he felt proud of his job.

In fact, he is a field manager working at Matop Construction, and this time he visited a middle school classroom for the industry-academic cooperation education promoted by Matop.

“My main job is to direct the laborers, but in the past, I have never done anything without starting with a handyman.”

He explained to the students various experiences, from carrying factory materials, to the signal man controlling the vehicle, and to going upstairs and painting cement.

“In the past, I followed the demo too (tile) assistant job, but the shooter didn’t teach me the technique and told me to carry all the hard tiles every day, and my back hurts and I really wanted to die.”

So he said the disc was still bad because of the back injury he had back then.

“There are good people who go to the field, but most of them are eccentric and self-righteous. I try not to teach the technique well. Anyway, it is a prejudice to think that there are only people who have not learned everything as a gangster.”

At the same time, these days, young people say they don't even want to put their feet on this side.

“Young people these days are complaining that there are no jobs, right? And then, without working, I keep holding on to the TOEIC book and bla bla…”

He said with a dissatisfied expression that job-seekers were only looking for very good jobs from the start.

“In the first place, where is the job that suits your aptitude? God's work? Of course, people want to find a good job even a little bit, but that’s why young people these days are flocking to public officials with guaranteed retirement age.”

The civil servant pension had already started running in deficit in 1993, and the fund was exhausted in 2002.

He explained that the depleted amount is covered by national taxes, and the annual public servant pension deficit is still 3 trillion won, and the accumulated deficit as of 2024 exceeds 15 trillion won.

“Oh!”

The students were surprised when Baek Han-gil, who was the director of Nogada, pointed out the professional problems of society unexpectedly, and listened intently to his class, shining their eyes.

“From now on, there may be cases where public servants are guaranteed the unconditional retirement age, and the pension is paid until they die.”

It also explained that the pension increase rate has been frozen since 2015 due to the already exhausted funds.

“So, students too, stop being civil servants and find a new job that can become your vision in the future. It may be tough and difficult right now, but all of those worries will turn into a direction that will benefit you later.”

After that, Baek Han-gil instilled living knowledge into the students by explaining in detail what he does in the field and how things work.

“I believe that what you learn at school must be directly connected to the field to be real knowledge. Don't think of it as a troublesome job that you have to force yourself to study at school, too, think of it as a study that you will use unconditionally in the future, and work hard with enthusiasm."

In fact, he explained that there are times when the studies learned in school are very helpful when measuring and calculating in the field.

“And lastly, be friendly with your friends. The kid I bullied in school always came to my boss. Then the real work life becomes difficult. When you were in school, you didn't know anything about bullying and beating kids? You may get doubled in the future, so always be nice to your friends and try to help with anything. Then you can be of help when you are in trouble later.”

"Hahaha. It's fucking funny."

“Hyung-chan. I was wrong. Let’s be friendly in the future.”

The students burst into laughter at Baek Hyung-gil's closing advice, and then suddenly ended the class by shaking hands friendly with a friend next to him.

-The 2nd week of the industry-academic cooperation education system! Not only AI teachers, but field workers are also put into classes as daily teachers?

- Field worker 曰, “It is a losing year for civil servants. Find the jobs needed for the 4th industrial revolution. There are no permanent jobs in the future. Public officials’ pensions are also insecure now”

-Invite hairdressers, delivery people, chicken shop owners, butcher shop technicians, and technicians spread throughout the industry as daily teachers! The wind of practice blowing in schools across the country.

-Ministry of Education 曰, “In the future, we will inject living field knowledge into schools, not dead knowledge. Knowledge is also meaningful when it is connected to practice, and learning individually is meaningless.” Next year's curriculum cataclysmic notice!

-Industrial-academic cooperation system implemented in part by schools nationwide! With the goal of complete replacement next year, industry-university educators and professional engineers work together to create a new curriculum.

At the end of the semester, when the suddenly changed education system was temporarily applied, not only parents, but also educators and the media were outraged.

They had to study practical work quickly to survive in the changed system, and now they work really hard in class without ‘roughly’.

I was more careful because not only did my salary depend on performance, but I could also be fired from my public office if my performance was the lowest or if I took the worst class in the future.

With such an environment created, there was no time to form a union in the first place.

All the teachers worked hard to keep up with the new changes.

Ding-dong! Ding-dong!“Hello, sisters.”

“Oh my, lady. What happened all of a sudden without contact?”

Ari looked at her Lee Hye-eun, who suddenly came into her own house, and put on her surprised expression. It was the same with Ahn Ji-min, who was next to Ari.

“A lot of other people came along with me.”

“Anyone else?”

Then, some women rushed out from the door and greeted Ari.

“Hello, madam. My name is Seo-yoon Jin, the president of Martap Entertainment, who works under Manager Lee.”

“I’m Yuri from the girl group Pink Pink at Matop Entertainment. nice to meet you. Wife."

“Sister, it’s been a while.”

Ari was startled by the sudden rush of guests, and she soon greeted them with a smile.

“Nice to meet you all. Arang also came.”

Among them was Joo A-rang, the president of Matop Jewelry.

Joo Arang took charge of the magic tower jewelry instead of Ari, and was still generating stable sales of tens of trillions of won per year.

“I should have come earlier, but it’s a little late because we’ve been so busy with business.”

Hye-eun Lee said it was her housewarming gift, and she handed her Ari a bundle of gold-plated rolls of tissue paper.

“If you wipe with this when you are doing chores, you will feel a little different.”

“·················ogue.”

Lee Hye-eun's slightly four-dimensional houses received a gift, and Ari smiled awkwardly.

“Come on, everyone, please come in without standing still.”

Meanwhile, Ari was about to go to her kitchen to prepare her food.

"sister. You can't do that. I made a business trip buffet.”

“That… but….”

When Hye-eun Lee hurriedly dissuaded her, Ari hesitated with an apologetic expression on her face.

“It's our fault that we came all of a sudden, and the landlord doesn't need to be sorry. instead···."

Hye-eun Lee suddenly made a sinister expression, and she stabbed Ari in the side.

"If you're so sorry... From now on, we will be doing a joint broadcast with the girls of the tower, so please make a special appearance. Did you know?”

"Yes······!?"

Ari was startled by Lee Hye-eun's absurd suggestion, and her eyes widened.
