Chapter 24 - Interruption

Bang!

"Give me a break!" Nelia snorted after Nathan was finally down and then looked at the two children at the side. "Are you Silas's friends? You can't steal the cookies from me!"

Aya's lips twitched and she said weakly, "I don't want cookie, Big Sister."

"I don't want any either." Evan shook his head rapidly. After suffering a beating from Nelia, Evan truly didn't want to get another beating. It was already more than enough that he was beaten up once by this violent woman.

"Good." Nelia nodded in satisfaction.

Melia sighed. "There are enough cookies for everyone. You're not a child anymore, Nelia."

"I still want the cookie!" Nelia complained.

"Sister Melia, it's fine!"

"Yes, we don't need the cookie."

Silas and the others quickly echoed.

What a joke.

They have been under Nelia for a long time and naturally knew this teacher's sweet tooth was extremely severe. If someone dared to steal a cookie under her nose, they had to be prepared to be beaten up badly because Nelia would never hold back in the slightest bit. 

Anything concerning cookies was considered a life and death matter for Nelia. 

"Fine." Melia looked at her sister with reproach but didn't try to change it. She had known about her sister's habit for a long time. "I'm going back to see Keiran first. It's time for his milk."

Keiran.

Aya nearly sat up straight when she heard this name.

Keiran Green, the man who will unite the cities together after a large war. But at this moment, this Keiran was still a baby who needed his mother to take care of him. He was born not long ago along with his team members in the future.

Thinking about this, Aya wondered whether the history would proceed in the same way now that there were ghosts in this era.

Aya's eyes darkened when she thought of those ghosts. 

If only it was possible, she wanted to eliminate the ghosts on her own. But she knew that it would not be that easy to do this considering her current strength.

Time.

She needed time to grow.

"Okay, so you two are… uhm, from the White Family?" Nelia looked at the two children and thought hard. Aside from the fact that they came from the White Family, which was obvious from their clothing, she couldn't think of anything else. 

"Hello Mage Nelia, I'm Evan White and this is my cousin sister, Aya White."

"Evan White…" Nelia repeated the name, feeling that it was somewhat familiar before she suddenly recalled something. "Patriarch White's nephew and daughter?"

"Yes."

"Uh…" Nelia suddenly felt that it was really bad. She looked at the two children in front of her who were looking in her direction and sighed.

Even though she was from the Red Family, she really didn't dare to beat up other family's successor without reasons. Thinking about her annoying student, now there were another two whom she couldn't beat at will, Nelia felt uncomfortable. 

It was really hard for her.

"Teacher, they usually practice together with Leon and I will watch over them," Silas said, explaining the situation. 

"And then why are they here?"

Evan: "..." he couldn't say that he just wanted to take a look, right?

He turned to look at Aya for help but Aya kept her mouth shut. Just looking at Nelia's unreasonable attitude, Aya had a great headache.

She didn't really want to talk too much in fear that she would be beaten up.

'Um?'

Aya suddenly raised her head and turned to look at the back courtyard.

No way…

"Huh?" Nelia seemed to notice it too. While the Red Family didn't have perception magic or the likes, the instinct honed from various battles were definitely very strong. "It seems we have a guest."
