1267 Should we continue, Lady Rune?

"Haah... Haahh... Haahh...

I still cannot defeat you..."

Thyra muttered, there were bruises all over her body, there were also some deep cuts, one on her right shoulder, one on the waist, and the last one on her forehead, very close to the two eyebrows, due to that, her entire face was covered with blood and she could barely open her eyes.

Normally, if Nux ever saw his wife in such a condition, controlling him would be impossible and the man would destroy the one responsible for this.

A certain woman, however, was an exception to this rule.

Thyra's teaching and sparring partner, Rune.

As assassins, most of their sparring sessions were this bloody, the two always aim for the vital parts and a scene like this was extremely common, to the point where Nux, as much as his heart ached every time he saw it, had gotten used to it.

Not to mention that with the Elven Queen with them, getting the best healers in case of an accident wasn't very difficult.

"It is annoying how you try to defeat me and actually believe that it is possible."

Rune spoke with a cold look on her face.

Let alone bruises, she wasn't even sweating. It was clear that despite Thyra giving her all in the spar, she was still holding back.

"Complete or not, you are still a Great Sage, I am a Saint, you believing that you can defeat me if you try hard enough hurts my pride."

Rune was honest.

"Heh..."

Thyra snorted.

She knew that Rune joining them and 'becoming a monster' like that wasn't far. Nux was already doing whatever he could, the ball was in Rune's court. Thyra knew Nux the best, that man would flirt, tease, and make countless moves on Rune, however, unless Rune gives her consent, he won't advance.

Thinking about it, Thyra just shook her head. Then, as if she recalled something, she spoke up, "Right, someone else would be joining us as well."

"Is it Skyla?" Rune questioned.

The adorable maid had trained together with them frequently, she was actually looking forward to spending some time with her. She felt comfortable around her.

Thyra, however, shook her head,

"It is my Teacher."

Thyra spoke with a mysterious smile.

"Your Teacher...?" Rune narrowed her eyes.

"Yes, the person who raised me as an assassin ever since I was a child," Thyra revealed and Rune frowned.

"That's cruel. Children shouldn't be exposed to such things."

"She is one cruel bitch, I agree." Thyra nodded. Then, she glanced at Rune and, "You have actually met her before."
