NTR SAGAS

Chapter 75: The Only Gentleman



In the royal records room, Nadia was busy looking up the disciple records. She had to find out which class that certain someone was teaching and make sure she could persuade Zhen to make her the teacher of that class as well…temporarily, of course.

"Got it," Nadia's eyes shone with a cold light as she saw the name 'Jiang' in the records. Now all she had to do was meet Zhen and tell him about her request.

However, she let out a heavy sigh, knowing what might happen if she was to request anything from someone like Zhen.

But Lucas' face flashed in her head, and she no longer felt any hesitation as she walked towards the principal's room.

And just as she was about to step out of the records room with a distracted mind, she accidentally bumped into a wide chest of a man.

"Oh, forgive me. I didn't see you coming out. I was too busy looking through my papers," A handsome young man said in a polite voice.

Nadia looked up to see a 6 6" tall young and handsome man with a gentle demeanor, apologizing to her with an unforgettable smile.

He had a huge body frame, and beneath those elegant robes, she had no doubt that his body was packed with muscles, and based on the aura he was giving off, she also had no doubt that this man was a battle-hardened warrior.

But what astonished her was that this was the same man who had helped her out in a very awkward situation the first time she came here.

She thought she wouldn't see him again to thank him, but here he was.

Nadia gave a polite smile as well as she said, "No need to apologize. It was my mistake as well. I should have paid more attention to where I was going."

"Don't be. I am sure you had a lot on your mind. But I feel like we have met before, have we?" The man asked in a doubtful tone.

Nadia nodded with a soft chuckle, "Yes, and I have been meaning to thank you for helping me out when I was in a rush. Honestly, I needed it more than I thought," Nadia couldn't tell why but she was feeling comfortable in the presence of this man despite not knowing him. This was the first time she was feeling like this, and she could also see that this man's eyes were as clear as water.

"I see. I am happy that I was of help to you. Ah, I forget my manners. My name is Qiang, and I am the guy who teaches disciples how to fight," Qiang said as he bowed his head.

Nadia gave a light bow as well, "Pleased to meet you, Qiang. I am Nadia, and I teach the disciples how to use swords."

"I knew it. I could tell based on the sharpness of your gait and your expressions. You must be a true expert, I suppose. I had never seen a woman like you, honestly. Most of them stay in their homes. That is why I admire you. Only people like you make a difference in our world," Qiang said with a look of admiration.

"Ah, you flatter me too much. I only did what was necessary to pave a path for myself," Nadia said modestly and didn't know why she was feeling a bit flustered. This wasn't like her, but at the same time, nobody had ever recognized her talents or skills like this. This was the first time she was hearing a sincere appreciation, while the rest of the time, men and women alike would only show fear due to her power only but never understand how much work she had put in to reach that height.

But it didn't matter now since even her power was compromised, and now she had to sacrifice herself to desperately gain back her power bit by bit.

"That's impressive as well. Not anybody can pave a path for themselves. Even though I had almost given up, now that I am closer to reaching my goal, I am even more motivated," Qiang said with a determined light in his eyes.

Nadia became curious as she asked, "What do you aim to be?"

Qiang shook his head subtly as he said, "It's nothing big, but I aim to be the royal bodyguard of His Majesty himself. Only a position like that where I can use my skills to protect someone who is important to our kingdom could make me feel that I am doing the best I could for my kingdom."

Nadia raised her eyebrows, though she wasn't that surprised to see that he had such honorable ambitions. But hearing that someone as gentle and valiant as this man might be serving Yiman in the future made her feel disgusted and considered it to be an utter waste.

Who knows…even this man might get corrupted while being under someone like Yiman.

"What if…Yi–-His Majesty is going to have a queen, and she asks you to become her personal bodyguard?" Nadia suddenly asked without even thinking. But now that she said it aloud, she couldn't just take back her words.

However, she didn't regret asking since if she could get a man like Qiang under her, then she could probably have someone she could trust to do things for her, though she was not fully sure.

Qiang had a surprised look as if he didn't expect to ask such a question. Still, he cleared his throat and said, "So the rumors about our king going to have a queen might be true? Well, if someone as respected as the Queen herself, is going to want me to take up such a distinguished role, then I will accept even if she doesn't persuade me. A queen is also an indispensable person to the kingdom since she supports the king."

Nadia felt a bit relieved and had already made a decision to make this man one of hers so that she does not have to be alone in everything.

She said with a smile, "Then I hope that you will do your best to serve the queen if that time comes. You will be doing your kingdom a great service more than you realize."
