Chapter 213 I was wrong about you...

"I will be joining the family soon, so I should know something about it, no?" Isabel questioned, however,

"Haah...?"

Orion paused.

He then turned towards Isabel and with a big frown on his face, he questioned. "Why would you join the Vesta Family?"

Hearing those words, Isabel blinked in surprise.

"Am I not obliged to?" She questioned.

"Why would you be obligated to join the Vesta Family?"

"The Teacher is part of the Vesta Family, since I will be learning from you, isn't it obvious that I should be joining the Family? After all, only a member of the Family should be allowed to learn the Core skills of Teacher. He cannot teach it to any random person he meets.

I perfectly understand that.

As a member of the Vesta Family, you would obviously have some responsibility towards it, no?"

Isabel spoke.

Honestly, all these things Vaan had told her made perfect sense, this was why she never doubted him before.

Orion, however, blinked in surprise, soon however, a possibility came up in his mind and his mouth started twitching in annoyance,

"Isabel..."

He called out.

"Who told you all this?"

Orion questioned despite knowing the answer.

With how his mouth hadnt stopped twitching and his fists were clenched tightly, it was easy to guess what was about to happen to the culprit.

"It was Vaan."

The answer was exactly what Orion expected.

"Come with me. I need to teach that bastard a lesson."

He spoke, taking Isabel to the Vaan's house.

Isabel frowned, "A lesson? Has he done something wrong?" She questioned, then, as she narrowed her eyes, she asked another question,

"Did he... lie to me?"

"My techniques are my own. Even if I am part of the Vesta Family, the Family itself has no hand in my current strength.

My techniques are not bound to the Vesta Family.

I can teach them to whoever I like and I do not need Vesta Faily's permission to do it."

Orion made it clear.

"So... he lied to me...?" Isabel's expression changed.

"He did.

I would love it if you were to join the Family in the future, however, in no way, are you obligated to join it. So you do not have to think so hard and tie yourself up with one of the powers at such a young age.

You have your entire life in front of you right now, don't be hasty."

Orion suggested how a good teacher would.

Isabel, however, was thinking about a completely different thing and didn't even reply to Orion's words. Something that had never happened before.

"Isabel...?"

Seeing that the girl was oddly silent, Orion called out.

Then suddenly, Isabe; raised her head and with a forced smile on her face, she questioned,

"Teacher, I actually have quite a few techniques that I haven't shown you yesterday.

How about I and Vaan have another spar today?" noveLBIn

Seeing the expression on her face, Orion was taken aback. He could tell that his son had provoked someone he shouldn't have and honestly, he had no wish to protect him either.

"I am Ethan Ericson," Ethan replied.

"Hm." Vaan nodded.

"You are worrying too much, Ethan. Tomorrow's battle, I assure you, we will be the victors.

You can leave everything you have brought here, also, from now on, make sure you are the only one they send for an interview or articles, you are bright, I believe that with your help and suggestions, I would have an easier time manipulating media."

In an instant, Ethan's eyes brightened up.

"A-As you say, Sir Vaan!"

He exclaimed.

"Now eat well. We will have an interview after this." Vaan spoke as he nodded.

Ethan nodded back, however, just as he was about to eat,

"Look at you~

Aren't you carefree, guess that's what happens when you lie left and right, eh?"

A voice was heard.

Ethan turned around, confused as to who would be so daring to say those words to someone as intimidating as Vaan, but the moment his eyes fell on the woman standing at the doors, his eyes widened in fright,

"L-L-Lady Isabel!!"

He was shocked.

He knew Vaan and Isabel were close, he had heard what had happened in the Leadership and Personality Development Class today.

However, even then, he didn't think the two would be so close that Isabel would barge into Vaan's house without as much as a knock.

"What are you doing here?" Vaan questioned with a frown.

He knew Isabel would come to train, however, this was 2 hours before the given time.

"To beat you up of course."

Isabel answered.

"What...?" Vaan narrowed his eyes.

"She is talking about training together with you, my dear son."

Suddenly Orion walked into the room as well and the moment Vaan noticed the smile on his father's face, he understood the crux of the situation.

'Fuck...'

He cursed in his head.

He finally understood why he felt so strange all this while.

He glanced at Isabel and seeing the look on her face, he smiled innocently and,

"I-I have a battle tomorrow, so I need to train for that. How about we skip are training session to tomorrow? I'll be sure to compensate you."

"Oh don't you worry, I'll make sure to train you well for tomorrow. So much that even if you take any hits tomorrow from a real sword or an Artifact, you would feel like they are nothing."

Isabel's intentions were clear.

"..."

Vaan gulped.

"S-Sir Vaan..."

In between all this, Ethan called out.

"Regarding the interview about Lady Isabel joining the Vesta Family, would it be possible to have Lady Isabel in it as well?"

He questioned with a hopeful look on his face.

However,

"What did you say?"

'You fucking bastard...

I was wrong about you...'

Vaan cursed in his head.
