“Teacher Evane!”
A student exclaimed in excitement.
“I can’t believe it! You have become an Expert Stage Cultivator!”
Another student exclaimed.
“What’s not to believe? Wasn’t it clear from the start? Teacher Evane, I knew that you were different from normal cultivators. Becoming an Expert Stage Cultivator was only a matter of time.”
“Indeed, Indeed, I knew that as well.”
“Mhm Mhm.”
More and more students nodded in agreement.
Evane, who was hearing all their comments couldn’t help but smile.
“But Teacher Evane, are you really leaving?”
A female student stepped forward and questioned.
“Yes, I am.”
Evane nodded with a smile on her face.
“I wanted to leave earlier, however, I then realized that I couldn’t leave without saying a proper farewell, so well, here I am.”
“Is it really that important? Why not stay here in the Academy, you are the best teacher we have.”
A student tried to convince Evane, however, she had already made up her mind.
“No, I have to leave.”
“Where are you going? Are you going back to the Royal Palace?”
Another student questioned.
“You will know that very soon.”
Evane didn’t answer clearly.
“Then wha-”
“Alright Students, I know all of you are curious, however, Teacher Evane can’t answer all your questions like that.
There are certain reasons why she has to leave our Academy, it is unfortunate, however, I believe that rather than being sad about it, we should send Teacher Evane with smiles on our faces and wish her the best of luck for her future.
Can you all that?”
A bald man stepped forward.
‘Eliyard, I didn’t know that you were so good with this stuff.’
Nux praised.
‘I have been doing this for many years now, Master.’
Eliyard answered respectfully.
Again, all the weight around his words disappeared the moment he talked to Nux.
‘Good, Good, continue.’
Nux nodded and didn’t waste much time.
Today, he was not the main character.
Evane was.
He would just stand among the students, silently.
“””Yes we can, Headmaster.”””
The Students nodded collectively. Right now, they were all inside the Academy’s Auditorium. Evane has been a Teacher in this Academy for 34 years now, and the number of students she taught was not fixed to just 20 students in Nux’s class.
The number was in the 100s.
Students from her other class and the students she taught years ago, all of them have come here to bid her goodbyes. Some of the students weren’t even taught by her, but they were still here.
Teacher Evane was just that popular in the Academy.
“Good,”
Eliyard smiled amiably.
Then, he turned towards Evane and spoke,
“Alright, now rather than asking her questions, let us call Teacher Evane here so that she can say her farewells to us properly.”
Evane stood up from her chair and walked forward.
“Good morning to you all…”
Then, she started her farewell speech.
The Event continued, some students then stepped forward and praised their teacher, Evane then distributed some sweets to all the students here, and then, after bidding her final farewells, she walked out of the Auditorium.
Tears threatened to come out of her eyes, however, she didn’t cry.
She held those tears back.
‘You are too weak, I am not talking about your cultivation, but your mind. You are too kind, Evane, your heart is too pure.
You need to change that, you need to learn how to control your emotions.
The Place you are going is a place where people who you think are closest to you would stab you with a knife the moment they get the chance to.
You can’t show your emotions there like you do now.
You need to change.
This will be heart, however, I know you can do it.
You can do anything for Nux, can you not?
I will be there to help you, but in the end, it all depends on you.’
These were the words Amaya said to her personally before she left for the Palace.
And she, as a Princess who was born in that place knew that these words were true. She had realized that the Royal Palace was not a suitable place for her.
That was why she joined the Academy in the first place.
However, now, she had to return.
And this time, she would need to jump into the very marsh she has been avoiding for such a long time now.
Funny how fate works really.
Of course, Evane was not against any of it.
She had a goal in her mind.
She wanted to help Nux.
Isn’t it just simple politics? Well, she had the master of this game right by her side.
Bring it on, she was ready.
And to show that she was ready, she would start by not crying on this simple farewell.
“Evane.”
While Evane was thinking all of this, someone called her.
She finally came out of her reverie and turned towards the voice.
“Teacher Arvina.”
She called.
Arvina smiled.
“So you really are leaving huh.”
“Yes, I am.”
Evane smiled.
“Do you really want to? No one would force you if you don’t.”
Arvina wanted to confirm.
Evane chuckled.
Nux has said these exact same words many many times now, however, every time he said those words, her answer has remained the same.
“I am stronger than you think.”
Hearing those words, Arvina couldn’t help but smile.
“I know. You do not have to tell me. You are strong. Very strong.
Much stronger than me.”
Suddenly, Evane frowned.
Something was wrong.
She could feel it.
Arvina’s words sounded a little… different.
“Teacher Arvina, is something wrong?”
Evane questioned.
She has just returned from her Grandfather’s house, therefore, she didn’t know about what happened between Arvina and Nux.
Nux wanted to fill her in, however, he realized Evane was already dealing with a lot since she would be going back to that place, therefore, he decided to let her enjoy her moment and didn’t say anything.
He was planning to tell her everything later, however, he didn’t expect Arvina to appear in front of Evane like that.
“Evane…”
Arvina called.
“What is it, Teacher Arvina?”
“Can I talk to you about something?”
Arvina requested.
