"E-E-Expert Stage…"

Arvina's face paled in horror.

A 19-year-old Grand Master Stage Cultivator was unbelievable?

What about this then?

Does this make any sense?

Arvina was at a loss of words.

"Y-You are already an Expert Stage Cultivator…" She stuttered as her expression continued to change, from shock to amazement to doubt to acceptance and then, tensed.

Nux didn't fail to notice it and soon, he frowned.

"Teacher, why the tensed look?"

Arvina looked at Nux's face and muttered with a solemn look on her face,

"You are more talented than I thought."

"Hmm? Isn't that a good thing? Why do you look so tensed?" Nux couldn't understand.

What teacher makes a face like this when she finds out that her student is talented?

Shouldn't she be beaming in immense joy?"

"This is not a good thing at all…" Arvina muttered.

"Why?"

"If it is revealed, you will be killed."

"Huh? That would have happened even if my talent was the same as what you thought it was, won't it? Why do you look so tensed right now?"

Arvina, however, shook her head,

"No, that is not true earlier, even if your talent was revealed, I could have protected you from even the King of the Kingdom, however, now…

Things aren't the same…

The Dukes and the King would come after you no matter what and this time, I won't be able to protect you either."

Arvina's expression wasn't good at all.

Nux, however, couldn't understand what she was talking about and frowned,

"Teacher… isn't my talent being better a good thing? I can get stronger faster, and with the way I am going, I won't need more than a decade to become a King Stage Cultivator, and once I become a King Stage Expert, I would become one of the strongest people in this Kingdom.

Won't that make me safe?

I just need to stay inside the academy for a while and then, I can do whatever I want.
