After talking with Evane, Arvina returned to her mansion, she then walked towards her garden to check on Nux and a smile appeared on her face as she saw Nux swinging his sword with a determined look on his face.
With how his face and clothes were drenched in sweat, Arvina knew that the boy wasn’t trying to fake it and couldn’t help but smile.
A monstrously talented boy like his is hard working as well…
Arvina knew that his future was limitless.
A thought then appeared in Arvina’s mind, she hid behind a bush and started observing Nux.
However, as soon as she hid behind the bush, Nux paused.
Then, he glanced in her direction and smiled,
“Welcome back, teacher.”
Arvina raised her eyebrow in surprise, she then stepped out and commented,
“You are sharp.”
“Thank you.” Nux’s smile widened.
“That day, you found Candice who was hiding behind a bush as well, even I was unable to do so, how did you do it?” Arvina questioned.
As a warrior, she was quite perceptive about her surroundings, however, she could see that Nux easily defeated her when it comes to that.
Nux however, did not answer her question and smiled,
“I am just that good.”
“Tsk Tsk, focus on your moves, you arrogant fool, your form is still not perfect.”
“Hmm hmm, just give me a few more hours teacher, I will master this form.”
“Don’t rush it,” Arvina warned.
She didn’t want Nux to do the same mistake Candice did.
“Don’t worry, I won’t move the next moves unless you are satisfied.”
“Heh. It is hard to satisfy me, boy.” Arvina smiled.
“We will see about that,
I will satisfy you for sure~”
Nux muttered with a playful smile on his face.
Seeing that smile, Arvina frowned.
For some reason, she thought that Nux’s words meant something else.
However, she was not sure about it.
Maybe it was just her being overly perceptive and cautious.
She should not think too much about useless things.
Arvina noted in her head.
Then, she suddenly recalled what she wanted to talk about and she called,
“Nux,”
“Yes?”
“You live in the room next to Teacher Evane, correct?”
“Yes, I do, though I am not sure if it could be called a room though, it’s too big,” Nux answered.
“How about you stop living there and shift here?” Arvina questioned.
“…”
Nux frowned and didn’t answer.
Seeing this, Arvina frowned as well,
“There should not be any problem, correct?”
“Umm… Teacher… is it possible to not shift?” Nux questioned with an awkward look on his face.
“Why? Won’t you be more comfortable here? I know your secret, so you can even slack off and stop restraining yourself from time to time. Isn’t that better?” Arvina couldn’t understand Nux’s thoughts.
“That is true… however, I would like to stay there…”
“Why?”
“…”
Nux glanced at Arvina, his mind started thinking about different excuses, however, he was unable to come up with anything.
Soon, however, a smile appeared on his face as he answered,
“Because Teacher Evane is there.”
“Huh?” Arvina frowned.
Soon, her eyes widened in shock as she questioned,
“Are those rumours true!?”
“What rumours?”
“The rumours about you and Evane being a couple.”
“Huh!? Of course not!
I am not that lucky.”
Nux was quick to deny.
Arvina sighed in relief, however, then, she narrowed her eyes and questioned,
“What do you mean you aren’t that lucky? Does that mean you like Teacher Evane?”
Nux then averted his eyes,
“Ah, teacher, I don’t have time to talk right now, let me practice my form. I feel like I can still improve.”
Saying that, Nux started swinging his sword.
Arvina narrowed her eyes, although Nux didn’t answer, his actions made his answers clear.
This boy liked his teacher.
Arvina thought about it and couldn’t believe how wrong it was.
She wanted to talk more about it however, in the end, she shook her head and turned around.
Seeing her walking away, Nux chuckled.
Then, he continued swinging his sword again.
…
“Teacher, I will be leaving now.” After the training ended, Nux bowed his head and muttered.
“You are really going there huh…” Arvina muttered.
Nux just smiled and then, he turned around and left.
Arvina looked at his back with an expressionless face.
No one knew what she was thinking.
…
On the other side, Nux walked into his room and then, he started painting.
No, he wasn’t doing this to impress Evane, he wasn’t that good, and neither did he think he could become that good in the recent future, he just needed a topic two of them could talk about.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Nux continued painting as time passed, soon, Nux heard a knock.
A smile appeared on his face, he then opened the doors and greeted.
“Teacher Evane, I hope you are doing well.”
Evane smiled and then walked into Nux’s room.
“Did you miss me, teacher?
Honestly, I missed you a lot.” Nux smiled.
“Teacher Arvina told me that you became her student,” Evane muttered.
“Heehh? Didn’t I tell you before? Remember what I said?
Teacher Arvina would like me so much that she would praise me many many times.
However, it seemed that I underestimated my charm,
Teacher Arvina directly took me as her student.”
Nux answered with a proud smile on his face.
Seeing him acting like that, Evane couldn’t help but chuckle.
He has not changed at all…
“I can’t believe you managed to impress Teacher Arvina.” She muttered.
“Heeh? Wasn’t that expected? Didn’t I manage to impress Teacher Evane as well? Didn’t I become your favourite student?” Nux brought his face close to Evane’s and muttered.
“H-Huh? When did you become my favourite student?” Evane stuttered and for some reason, her face turned red.
“Whaaat? I am still not your favourite student yet?” Nux questioned with a shocked look on his face.
“No, you are not. You have to work harder for that.” Evane chuckle.
“Alright, come with me then, I will show you the painting I just made,
This will definitely impress you and I will then become your favourite student.
I am sure of it.”
