"How's this? I am quite confident in this one."

Nux questioned as he showed another painting to Evane with a smile on his face.

"You see, here is the knight, he came after fighting a war and is now in front of the princess…"

Nux then started explaining what he drew and seeing him, Evane smiled.

"Are you going to live with Teacher Arvina from now on?" Suddenly, Evane questioned.

"Knight promised to pro-" Hearing her question, Nux paused.

Then, a frown appeared on his face and he answered,

"Of course not, why would I do that?"

"Teacher Arvina came to me, she talked about how you will be safer if you lived with her," Evane muttered.

"Safe? Teacher Evane… have you perhaps not heard the news?" Nux questioned.

"News? What news?" Evane frowned.

"Bourkee House is now destroyed," Nux informed nonchalantly.

"Huh? How did that happen?" Evane questioned in shock, however, Nux shook his head.

"I do not know the details, however, it seems that all the cultivators who were Earl's subordinates were killed and even Earl had both his arms chopped off.

Coincidently, it was revealed that Earl Bourkee had raped Baron Crook's daughter in the past, along with this, many other crimes were revealed as well.

The Earl could only compensate the victims to avoid the case in the Justice Court, however, the number of crimes he committed were so many that his money was spent and even after that, someone filed a case against him for another crime.

Since the Earl lost most of his power, his allies refused to help him.

His condition is quite pitiful now.

Actually, I am even wondering who was the one who did something so cruel to him…

He must be a cold-hearted person."

Nux shook his head with an innocent look on his face.

"…do you really feel that way…?" Evane questioned.
