Chapter 386 You are not fooling anyone.

Nux looked into Eliyard’s eyes with a cold expression on his face.

Eliyard glared back.

The anger, rage, and defiance were clear in his eyes.

“Heh, and I here I thought you were just a coward.”

Nux chuckled.

“W-Who are you?”

Eliyard questioned in a hoarse voice.

“Did you forget about the student of your own Academy, Headmaster?”

Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.

“You are not a student of my Academy. You are a Spy. A Spy sent by an enemy Kingdom!

Tell me, which Kingdom sent you here? Is it the Skadi?”

Eliyard’s face was completely red right now and he was desperately gasping for air, however, even after that, he didn’t show a single sign of weakness and questioned with his eyes full of anger.

Nux commended that unyielding attitude of his.

However, right now, that wasn’t something he wanted to see.

He wanted a weak Eliyard right now and he didn’t mind making things a little more painful to get what he wanted.

“Nothing personnel, Headmaster.”

Saying that, he threw Eliyard’s body away as if it was a bag of trash.

“Aggh!! Ugghhh!!”

Eliyard groaned in pain.

Nux walked towards him leisurely and,

He kicked on his stomach, sending him flying again.

“Ugggkghkkhh!!”

Nux then observed Eliyard and noticed that he was still looking at him with the same defiance on his face.

He sighed.

“Do you want my help? I am an expert when it comes to dealing with these types of people.”

Ember raised her hand and spoke with a fresh smile on his face.

“Oh really?”

Nux questioned.

“Who do you think I am?”

Evane smiled even more.

A smile appeared on Nux’s face as well.

“Alright then, how about you give me a few tips?”

Nux turned towards Ember and questioned with a smile on his face.

“Hmmm, so for the starters…

How about keeping an eye on your enemy?”

Ember smiled.

Nux frowned, he then turned around and noticed that Eliyard was already near the back door.

He was running away!

“Haahh… I guess I was right before, he is a coward.”

Nux sighed. He actually looked a little disappointed.

“You got overconfident.”

Ember commented.

“You are right. I will be careful in the future.”

Nux nodded.

“Mhm, you should. When the stakes are high, these small mistakes can be heavier.”

Ember nodded back.

“Hey! Can’t you see!? That man is running away!! Why are you two so calm!?”

Arvina shouted in panic.

Just what were these two thinking!? Cant, they discuss the mistakes or whatever after capturing Eliyard!? What if he runs away and reports everything to the Kingdom?

No matter how strong Nux and Ember were, acting so carelessly was not acceptable!

“You worry too much, teacher.”

Nux smiled.

“What are you talking about!?”

Arvina couldn’t believe it.

“Ember! You know how dire the consequences will be if he reports it to the King, right!? Why aren’t you doing anything!?”

“Well, I know about the consequences, however, I, think trying to do everything by myself is too… lonely.

I should try and place my trust on my sisters…”

Ember replied.

Her expression looked a little lost right now, it was as if she was thinking about something important and her mind wasn’t here.

“Sisters?”

Arvina frowned and suddenly,

“Aggghhh!! Leave me you bitches! Help! Somebody help me!!”

She heard a voice.

Arvina glanced at the door and soon, Thyra walked in while dragging the injured Eliyard with his leg.

Behind her, Felberta, Skyla, Lane, Edda, and Evane walked in as well.

‘What is she doing here?’

A question popped inside Arvina’s mind, however, she had more important things to talk about right now.

“We captured him.”

Thyra spoke with a smile.

A big smile appeared on Nux’s face.

He then turned towards Ember and spoke,

“See? You can trust your back on your sisters, they are all very awesome.”

Ember smiled back and nodded.

“They are better than I expected at least.”

“Hmph, don’t get carried away. I will surpass you soon enough, bitch.”

Thyra snorted.

“We will see about that.” Ember chuckled.

“Wait Wait Wait, I think you guys are missing something here.”

Suddenly, Arvina spoke up.

“Hmm? What’s the matter, Teacher Arvina?”

Nux questioned with a confused look on his face.

“He is a King Stage Cultivator, just how did they capture him!? How can a few Expert Stage Cultivators stop a King Stage CUltvator from running away!? This is unheard of!”

Arvina questioned.

“It’s not that hard if you stab the calf muscle~”

Skyla smiled cutely as she pointed at Eliyard’s body.

“…”

Arvina’s eyes finally fell on Eliyard’s body.

She noticed that both his calves muscles were stabbed by two knives.

However, that wasn’t it.

There was one knife on his right thigh, one on his left foot, one was pierced inside the right shoulder and his entire face was swollen up, but that was probably Nux’s doing.

Arvina could now imagine what happened and how it happened.

“Hmm hmm, if we use assassination techniques more creatively, you can capture someone alive. You just have to stab nonlethal points rather than the critical ones.”

Thyra spoke with a fresh smile on her face.

“Though I will admit, I almost pierced his heart out of instinct.”

“Now now, we have to treat him properly, okay? He is the key to our base after all.”

Edda chuckled.

“…”

Although there were a lot of things in her mind, Arvina decided to stay silent.

“Which kingdom sent you bastards?”

Eliyard questioned with eyes full of rage.

“Alright, you can drop this act now.

You are not fooling anyone.”

Ember spoke while she glanced at Eliyard.

“Act?”

Nux tilted his face in confusion.

“Yeah, him acting all brave like this, it is all an act.

Although rare, I have seen a few people act like that.

They are the type who fear ‘pain’ more than death.

They would try to make you feel that they are not afraid of death, just so they could fool you into thinking that they are not the ones you can break with torture and you would kill them right away.”

Ember then walked towards Eliyard and soon, the smile on her face turned demonic,

“In other words, they act brave, however, in reality,

They are the biggest cowards you would ever meet in your entire life.”
