Arthur wanted to ask this question for a long time but was never able to gather enough courage. For some reason, whenever he was before her, he would lose most of his confidence, especially with a question like this in mind that tugged at certain feelings in his heart.
Reva didn't know why Arthur was asking this question and wondered if it was out of genuine curiosity. Still, she answered to not make things seem suspicious, "It's precisely because he is a genius he seeks extra classes to go the extra mile and learn something more than the syllabus he is provided with. His thirst for knowledge is quite unquenchable. I can relate to how he feels since I am like that as well when it comes to alchemy."
Seeing how Reva patiently explained to him the reason, Arthur wondered if he was the one who was overthinking things. Still, he had heard rumors about how Reva was favoring Damien, and it just left him unsettled.
