Chapter 408 ls that a better reason?
“Y-Y-You… j-just what kind of student have I been teaching?”
Arvina shook her head as she glanced at Nux who was smiling at her.
“A really really really good and hardworking student,”
Nux answered.
“Heh.”
Arvina snorted.
“Umm… Arvina.”
Suddenly, Allura called out.
“Hmm? What is it?”
Arvina turned towards Allura.
“You still train him, don’t you?”
Allura questioned.
Hearing that question, Arvina sighed,
“Yes, I know, he is stronger than me, I know it already and I don’t want to hear it again. My answer is clear, his form might be good, but he can still improve and I believe that I can help him improve.”
A while before, Ember teased Arvina about being weaker than Nux and still training him, Arvina didn’t like that feeling. Therefore, she was a little sensitive about this.
Allura, however, didn’t care about all that.
“Woah Woah, I didn’t ask for any explanation alright, I just wanted a small yes and no. Do you still train him or not?”
“I do. Yes.”
“How many hours?”
“He has been busy, so only 3 hours a day.”
“Lucky you…”
Allura sighed and then she placed her hand on Arvina’s shoulder.
“Alright, Arvina, you can spend your next hour with Nux, I will be taking my leave.”
Then, Allura turned towards Nux and winked playfully.
“I will have 2 sessions tomorrow, don’t forget.”
Nux chuckled and shook his head. Allura turned around, however, Arvina interrupted.
“Wait, I am just about to leave, you can stay here.”
Allura, however, didn’t turn around and just shook her hand,
“No no nope, not happening. You already wasted 15 minutes of my session time. I won’t compromise here at all.
I would rather postpone it to tomorrow.”
Saying that, Allura left Nux’s room.
“…”
Arvina turned silent.
Nux just chuckled.
Arvina then turned towards Nux and snorted.
“You even laid your demonic hands on the King’s Wi- umm… the Royal Consort.”
“It still means the same but whatever.”
Nux commented.
“You really wish to go after the King, don’t you? Do you have some sort of hatred for him?”
Arvina questioned in curiosity.
“Teacher Arvina, I think you got something wrong.”
Suddenly, Nux spoke.
“Hmm? What do you mean?”
Arvina questioned.
“I did not go after Allura because I want to make the King’s wife mine, or I want to go against the King, or because I hate him.
I want to take the King down because I want to stay with Allura.”
Well, initially he did approach Allura because she was the Royal Consort, but now, she meant more to him than that.
She owns the part of his heart, after all.
Arvina observed her student’s smile when he was looking at the door Allura walked out from and couldn’t help but comment.
“What a playboy.”
Nux’s smile widened.
“I just can’t do anything, there are just too many amazing women in this world. You can’t help but fall in love.”
“Hmph!”
Arvina snorted.
Nux just smiled.
Arvina then questioned.
“Hmph! First, you go after your Teacher, then you go after a married woman, how many taboos are you going to break?”
Nux chuckled. Then, he looked at Arvina’s face and commented.
“I might be thinking of breaking one more taboo, Teacher.”
“Huh?” Arvina frowned.
“Are you going to target another married woman? Or are you going to target another one of your teachers?”
Arvina questioned.
Nux’s smile widened and he answered,
“Both.”
Arvina’s eyes widened.
“You are going after two more women!?”
“No, just one.”
Nux looked into Arvina’s brown-red eyes.
“One?”
Arvina frowned.
“Does that mean you are going after a woman who is your teacher and is marr-“
Suddenly, Arvina turned silent.
A teacher and a married woman.
“…”
Arvina then looked at Nux’s expression and…
She stepped back.
Nux, however, didn’t let this chance go and stepped forward.
Then, his golden eyes shined and he directly looked into Arvina’s eyes.
“Teacher Arvina, I want yo-“
“No, do not say anything else.”
Arvina, however, interrupted him midsentence.
“I am your teacher.”
She spoke.
“Is this the only reason you are rejecting me?”
Nux questioned.
“Only reason?”
Arvina raised her eyebrow.
“Nux, I am not Evane.
She might ignore the fact that she has been teaching you as her student for more than a month, but I cannot.”
“Why? What’s so bad about a Teacher and Student being in a relationship?”
Nux questioned back.
“Everything. What is not bad about this!?”
Arvina raised her voice.
“And if you forgot about it, then let me remind you, I am already married!”
“Married to a person you don’t even like!
No, fuck like, you hate him!
You loathe that man.”
Nux raised his voice a little as well.
“How do you know that? I might secretly like the King.”
Arvina retorted.
“Teacher, please don’t. I know why you are here in the Academy. I know perfectly well how close you and the King are.
At least don’t lie right to my face.”
Nux shot back.
“…”
Arvina turned silent.
“I don’t get it. What is the issue here? Why not? Are you rejecting me because you are my teacher or because you are married? Are you worried about what others would say? Since when do you start to care about that, Teacher Arvina?
Aren’t you a warrior? Shouldn’t a Warrior do whatever he or she wants?
Then why hesitate here?”
Nux questioned.
Arvina and Nux stared at each other, different emotions shining in their eyes, a whole minute passed by with just the two of them standing there, staring at each other.
“You want to know the reason, correct?”
Suddenly, Arvina spoke.
“Yes, I do.”
Nux nodded.
“The reason I reject you is that I do not like you, Nux. I do not see an 18-year-old boy as a man. You are not the type of man I would fall in love with. You are not the one.
You and I, can’t happen.”
“…”
Hearing those words, Nux turned silent.
“Is that a better reason?”
Arvina questioned, her eyes shining strangely.
Nux stared into her brown-red eyes for a while, his eyes turned moist, and then, he started nodding his head.
“Yes…
Yes, that is a better reason indeed.
I accept this reason.
I am not the one.
Alright, I accept this reason.”
Nux continued to nod his head and then, two crystalline tear drops rolled down his cheeks.
“You and I, really can’t happen.”
