Chapter 131

Chapter 131 Injustice “Did you bring your work? Show me now.”

Arnold didn’t know what happened between Cora and Sara. He just wanted to see Cora’s learning results in the past few days as soon as possible.

Since learning from Arnold, Cora took the time to visit him a few times and learned some skills from him.

She used his unfinished carvings to demonstrate the skills she had learned.

Arnold had not seen Cora’s first work under his guidance so far, so he was very curious.

“Here it is.” Cora saw that Sara was furious, so she followed Arnold into the room and showed her achievement over the past few days to the senior brothers and many friends of Arnold.

It was a small lifelike lion.

But it was not exactly the same as the design drawing Arnold gave her.

Enter title...

The small lion on the design drawing given by Arnold was lying and resting, which looked a little gentler, but the one carved by Cora arched its back and was about to attack.

It was difficult to show posture and expression.

But Cora had done a good job. Especially, she used the skills Arnold had taught her before.

“Why not follow the drawing?” Arnold asked after seeing the work.

“Compared with a lazy and dozing lion, I prefer its attacking posture, because at this time it needs to be resourceful and brave to defeat the enemy.”

Cora was talking about the lion and herself, so she didn’t say “target the prey”, but “defeat the enemy”.

“Good,” Arnold said. The more he looked at the attacking lion, the more he liked it.

Just then, Jane also entered the room and showed her achievement over the past few days.

Arnold gave her a drawing of an eagle with spread wings, and she carved exactly the same eagle.

Similarly, she also applied the skills taught by Arnold. Although she was not as skillful as Cora in the application of those skills, she had put in a lot of effort.

Compared with Cora’s free rein, Jane’s eagle seemed mediocre and constrained.

But Jane was Arnold’s granddaughter, so he didn’t praise Cora’s work in front of her. He just said, “It seems that you will defeat our opponents.”

Although Arnold didn’t point out whose work was better, his apprentices had sharp eyes.

They discussed this among themselves after leaving the room.

“I think Cora’s work is more vivid.”

“Yes. The small lion wants to attack, but it also defends itself. It is like those who make a living in hard times.”

“Do you think our master doesn’t know Cora’s work is better? When he saw it, his eyes lit up! But he didn’t make comments because he didn’t want to embarrass his granddaughter!”

“If our master is partial to his granddaughter, he can just teach all the skills to her privately.”

They were trying to defend Cora. It was understandable. They thought that Cora’s work was better, so she deserved more praise and would have a brighter future.

Arnold seemed to be good to Cora, but in fact, he was partial to Jane. Even if Cora had excellent work in the future, it would be difficult for her to stand out.

This was the reason why they tried to defend Cora.

But Jane heard what they said.

She didn’t feel that her work was much worse than Cora’s. She just felt that she hadn’t had much exposure to woodcarving before. Her work was not as good as Cora’s, because Cora had carved a few small objects before, but she would catch up one day.

With that said, Jane targeted Cora again.

But she didn’t know that Cora was being dragged to a remote corner of the garden by Sara and warned, “You’d better not play tricks under my nose, or I will make you die miserably.”

But Cora didn’t panic at all. Instead, she asked Sara with a smile, “Are you afraid? Then why did you do that in the first place?”
