They were speechless upon Julia's words.
"Anyway." Julia turned to Fiona.
"I'm glad you took my advice," she said happily.
Fiona stole a glance at me before she turned her gaze to her mentor.
"Even if you didn't ask me, I planned to have him teach me from the start." She lowered her head, covering her guilty expression.
"I mean... He could heal Glen in an instant when I thought we would lose him forever. I'm a useless combat doctor," she said sadly. Glen was team 6's tank.
"Don't blame yourself. You just need to practice more," I advised.
At that time, Glen was bleeding heavily. While Fiona's Healing skill could only cover 20 to 25 points. Although it sounded pathetic, it was good enough since a normal mortal's HP was about 40-45 points.
Besides, I was a royal demon. Even the current me was stronger than lv 50 mortal.
"But Glen ordered me to create the barrier from the start, yet I couldn't make it in time. That was the hardest skill for me." Fiona's guilt was getting clearer from the tone of her voice.
"Practice makes perfect, dear." Julia tried to comfort her before she turned to me.
"I believe Dr. Allen must have experienced the same problem like yours in the past."
I desperately held my cringe.
'No, sorry. That fatal mistake means death in my realm and dad will disown me for sure.' But I couldn't say it bluntly, so I decided to smile and give her my innocent face.
"I promise I'll try harder, miss." Fiona turned to me.
"So... Can you help with my training?"
"I can't give you my promise. I have to take care of something tomorrow. But I will consider it." I planned to expand my search range with my Teleportation skill. Who knew I might find a clue soon?
"Thank you," Fiona said.
"It's almost 09.00 AM. The class is almost starting. You should go back to your class," I added.
"Okay. Later," they said before they left.
"Of course, it's him." He pointed at me.
"This is just you and me, okay? I mean three of us," he added quickly, remembering Julia was there.
"Later." Without waiting for my answer, he ran to his class.
"I also need to excuse myself," said Julia after Barry had disappeared from our sight.
But my words stopped her steps.
"Julia, you have to be careful with him," I warned her.
"Who do you mean?"
"Theo. He's obsessed with you, right?" I pointed out who I meant.
Although Barry sounded a bit dramatic by calling Theo a crazy paladin, I admitted he was right. And I knew Theo loved her.
Despite Theo's good endurance and high defense as a paladin, his anger management was worse than mine. He couldn't control his emotions well and as a warrior that could get him into trouble one day. He even considered me his enemy out of nowhere.
Unfortunately, there were only a few paladins as strong as him, so the academy could only endure his nonsense as long as he didn't cross the line.
"Don't worry. I rejected him three days ago. I already said I wasn't interested in him." She shrugged.
"Although I'm not sure he would give up that easily, at least I've gave him my answer."
"Oh, he confessed?" I was a bit surprised since Theo usually put his pride over everything. He even could make Lord of Pride cringe.
"Not really a confession. He only asked me for a date tonight. But I said I already have other plans," she said with a sweet smile.
"Is that your main reason why you suddenly want to come to my place?" I guessed. This would make me his nemesis but I didn't care about that since he had been treating me as one from the start.
But on the other hand, judging by his stubbornness, he could have appeared in front of Julia's room and made a bit of a fuss so she couldn't say no. If I was in her shoes, I would also run away to avoid him. Or... killed him. If I could.
"I have another reason." A meaningful smile on her lips.
"That reason... Is it because you love me?" I asked straight to the point.
She put her index finger in front of her lips.
"You can't ask that straight to a woman, Dr. Allen," she said calmly. A sweet smile on her lips. Then she turned and walked towards the exit.
"See ya later."
