Chapter 48: Experiences Makes Lessons Easily Learned

"Spar?" Avion was new to such words but could foretell a dangerous scene behind it.

Mettany nodded in enthusiasm. Earlier, she was like a succubus, enticing to all five senses but now, she became like a succubus, enticing all five senses with enthusiasm!

Avion wanted to escape but he knew it was impossible. He was locked like chains coiling on his fingers. Only these chains were warm and soft.

"You said that you don't know your Rank but you are just being shy... hehehe..." Her laughter was like a little child's and that made her more charming.

Others may have fallen to her trap by now but not Avion!

Why?

Although he was naive and didn't know too many things, mostly common sense, he had already learned his lesson. Don't judge a book by its cover!

The three; Naron, Temon, and Fobo once tried to rob and kidnap him. However, to his surprise, they are now caring for him. Taking him under their umbrella.

Meanwhile, the Royal Knight-Captain killed him without a second thought. A king struck him just because of a few words. Princess Alisera only looked at his face that even he was ignoring.

However, that doesn't mean that it will repeat.

When the Royal Knight-Captain killed him, he learned that he should fight back too. But when he fought back to the King, he was killed on the spot. He learned that he may only be aggressive if he can handle the situation. 

Finally, when Princess Alisera gave him intimacy and closeness, the truth was, she was just after his superficial feature. He thought that their relationship deepened in a short matter of time but he was wrong.

That is why when he was kidnapped and almost robbed, he knew that it was already their, Naron, Temon, and Fobo's pure intention.

Sleeping with them and experiencing what they go through just to eat breakfast made him saw past them. These three were honest and Avion somehow saw that. This, he had little doubt.

Now, in front of this lady in heat, he was not faltering. They just met for the first time but she was already flirting at him? Deceitful!

Avion was heartbroken just a night before. If he was to fall for this, then he is stupider than a monkey. He was just oblivious to many things but in terms of intelligence? He was the son of the once Ruler of the Universe, how could be dumb?!

He was like a caveman that came out to meet the civilization outside for the first time. After just a day, he had already been hammered with lessons. A lesson that taught him the hard way.

In front of this seductive lady, Avion was not moved. His body was becoming hotter but he did not take a step forward. He even took a step backward when Mettany crashed the counter.

Some of his spoiled nature was easily erased by what he experienced. He experienced death twice already.

Any living being would avoid death no matter what. May it be biological, psychological, or physiological, living beings were all programmed to stay away from death. Fear is a prime example.

Avion experienced this death twice already. How could anyone sympathize with him? The dead man may have a mouth but cannot speak. Only he knew the struggle of dying. Not near death, but dead, literally. He saw his own body on the ground while his slapped head spun for a million times before harshly hitting the ground.

That was something Avion wanted to forget and hide to the deepest part of his consciousness.

But from this pain, he gained something. He gained lessons that will make him wary of danger again.

Those experiences, albeit hidden in his darkest memories, still exist and were reminding him of the dangers of his actions.

And so,

"No, I'm sorry but I am not strong enough to spar with you." Avion tried to pull his hand away to show his great denial of Mettany's offer.

However, he was not the only one who is adamant.

"Sir Avion is being too humble." Mettany laughed again, stubbornly grasping Avion's hand, "I've never been turned on by weak people. I heard that you are a Light Elemental? Able to freely move like light? Not only are you so so so handsome but also, so so so strong too." her voice like music to the ears.

Avion, on the other hand, was frowning more and more, 'I didn't think there would be rumors like that. Next time, maybe I should hide my identity?' his adaptive ability catching up to his predicament. 

And more importantly, he doesn't want to admit it but his mood was sour from hearing Mettany praise his appearance. There are pros and cons everywhere. He came to hate his unnecessarily handsome face. Too much is always not good, no matter what it is.

"I will die if we spar. I'm telling the truth." Avion's breath became heavy but he didn't stop, "If you want, you can appraise me first and see that I am not an Elementalist." he used his knowledge that he gained from Naron's explanation earlier.

Seeing his solemn face, Mettany backed away but didn't release Avion's hand, still tightly grasping it. Avion was ignoring it for a while now but the grip on her hand was increasing by the moment. Along with this, he also saw Mettany's face getting redder as if any later, her face will become like that of a ripe tomato.

"Are you really telling the truth?" Mettany looked with great doubt as to if there was a troubling thought that appeared in her head.

"Yes," Avion answered with a determined tone. 

However, Mettany pulled him in as she leaned forward. Their foreheads almost touched. Her glistening silver pupils staring straight into Avion's soul.

"You're lying."

These words made Avion shudder. It was as if electricity traveled throughout his whole body in an instant, making his body hair stood up.

"My elesk is special. The more attractive a man is, the hornier I get. My elesk never lie. The greatest factor that attributes to a man's attractiveness is his appearance and then his capabilities, meaning his strength. I know that you are extremely handsome but that's not enough to become my greatest libi-... source of energy."

Avion gulped again.
