Chapter 31: End of the Training
Aya felt her scalp numb.
Seeing Nelia's interested eyes, Aya started to feel regret in her impulsiveness to compete in physical strength with Nathan and Silas not long ago.
How could she forget how crazy these people from the Red Family could be when they encounter a potential seedling in physical strength?
There were not many people who were talented in physical arts outside the Red Family.
Now Aya showed that talent at only 4 years old…
It would be a miracle if they were not interested.
"Teacher, you're scaring her." Silas stood up in front of Aya and looked at his teacher quietly. He was still very short, but he was taller than Aya.. So with him blocking Aya's figure, Nelia couldn't see Aya's figure at all.
She pursed her lips. "I'm not doing anything!"
Silas's lips twitched and he shook his head helplessly. He really couldn't do anything to this teacher of his.
"Teacher, what now?" Nathan asked from the side.
"Ah, you two fight me." Nelia grinned. She looked at Aya and found her still recovering her pitiful mana and felt that it might already be too much for the little girl. Anyway, she's still young. "As usual, I will only use my physical strength and you can use all means."
"Yes!"
"Shadow bind!"
"Earth trap!"
Bang! Bang!
Aya opened her eyes and watched the battle between Silas and Nathan against Nelia. Seeing how easily Nelia avoided their attack with only her physical strength, Aya's lips twitched.
The physical strength from those magic warriors of the Red Family was really off the charts.
In the Wansu City, it was almost impossible for them to be rivaled by others.
There were naturally other magic warriors who are good at physical strength, but they were in other cities. One of these families was also in Xunsu City, which was why the conflicts between the two cities would inevitably be fierce.
*pant* *pant*
Evan was tired and sat down beside Aya. He also watched the fight and murmured, "Do you think it's possible for me to be that strong?"
Aya glanced at Evan.
Thinking that Evan was the future White Family head, Aya knew very well that it was very possible for Evan to be that strong. After all, how could he convince the rest of the White Family members if he were not strong?
"Yes, I'm sure you will be that strong," Aya said seriously.
Evan smiled at Aya's words.
…
The training didn't last long and then they all went to eat together. Naturally, Nelia grabbed all the available cookies first before eating the other things.
And the one who paid this time was Nathan.
As Nelia said, it was his punishment for challenging people younger than him. The others were naturally not polite and ate as much food as possible.
In this way, when Nathan saw the bill, he nearly fainted.
His pocket money from this month would be gone!
Ahhh!
Seeing the despairing Nathan, the others only roll their eyes. As the brother of the Green Family Patriarch, Nathan is very rich and no one feels pity on him.
It would be better if they could eat a few more times with him paying the bills.
Hehehe.
After that fulfilling meal, they all went back to their respective home.
"I'll take you two back home," Silas said after they were done watching Nathan wept for his pocket money this month.
Honestly, they could also take some tasks from the mission center and earn money. Some tasks could be done individually while other tasks have to be done in a group. Many of these tasks were about eliminating the magic beasts around, though.
The materials from these magic beasts could be used for various things, so the missions related to them were very popular.
However, there were requirements for magic ranks for these kinds of missions.
Students were definitely not allowed to take those missions. Only those of certain ranks were allowed to take those missions.
The student's mission?
Gather herbs, fight against slimes, and so on.
These things were done in the back hill of Wansu City, which was still under the patrol of the guards, so it was much safer. Slimes could be said to be the weakest magic beasts out there. Of course, that was if their ranks were low.
There were some slimes with high rank and also very big, which made it hard for them to deal with.
They have to use more magic or physical strength to kill.
"Eh, the city is still relatively safe." Evan scratched the back of his head. He felt that Silas's gesture was unnecessary. He could also protect his cousin sister if it was necessary.
"It's not that far and it's not safe for children to go out," Silas gave out reasons.
"That… fine."
In this way, Silas took the two cousins back to the White Family Residence.
Nelia watched the children's back for a while before turning her head to look at Nisa. "How's the potions?"
"Ah, it's not very good." Nisa's face collapsed.
"Uh huh. Practice more." Nelia patted Nisa's shoulder and then glanced at Nathan. "Go back. You should be prepared for the battle later."
"Yes!"
Nelia went back home and found the backyard was already cleaned up. Her sister has put her son to sleep and she looked at Nelia.
"You're done with the children?"
"Yeah." Nelia nodded and then thought about Aya's strength. "Say, Sis, do you think there's someone from the Red Family who married into the White Family?"
"No way." Melia shook her head. "The White Family is a very traditional family. They also put high importance in their magic inheritance. They would not allow people from other powerful families to marry into their family easily."
Moreover, the Red Family's inheritance magic was only related to physical strengthening, which was tasteless for many people. It could be said that the position of the Red Family was not very high in this world because of their type of magic.
"Then Aya should be considered a strange one," Nelia commented.
"Why?"
"Her physical strength is ridiculously strong for the White Family. If she's from the Red Family, I won't be surprised, but she's not." Nelia shrugged.
"That girl?" Melia thought about the girl who was following her older cousin obediently and frowned. From what she knew of the White Family, they rejected those who were different more than any other family. Hopefully, that girl would be fine there.
"Yeah, I want to accept her as a disciple if possible…"
"Don't think too much. She's the daughter of White Family Patriarch, unless she's removed as the heiress, the White Family will never find her a teacher from other families."
"I know, I know." Nelia sighed. "I just feel a pity for her talent…"
Melia patted Nelia's shoulder and went to the kitchen. "Cheer up, I make a new type of cookie…."
"Give me!"
