Chapter 211 You Are Just So Precious, My Lovely Thyra It was 10 A.M., and right now, Nux was standing on what looked like 2 bamboo trees that are cut from the same height. Standing in front of him was Thyra, who was carrying a pile of Stones in her hands. She then picked on stone and, She threw it at Nux's head. Nux, of course, tilted his head and dodged the stone easily. Of course, Thyra wasn't done yet either. She picked another stone and aimed it at his hands. Nux's tilted his body and dodged it as well. Thyra then aimed at his other shoulders and then his legs and Nux dodged them all. Then, Thyra aimed at his head again and the round continued as Thyra increased her speed. Head, shoulders, legs, she continued attacking them again and again, the attacks didn't have any fixed patterns either, she just attacked and Nux dodged. From the smile on Nux's face, it looked like things were going pretty well, however, Thyra had an expressionless face, so whether she was satisfied or not, nobody knew. Nux continued dodging every attack for the next 5 minutes and then, Thyra changed her attack pattern and aimed at his stomach. Nux lifted his left leg and moved his body as he dodged the stone, however, he wasn't able to place his leg back on the bamboo and fell down. "Ugghh…" He groaned as he rubbed his ass. "Haahh… I can't believe it…" Thyra sighed. From her tone, she looked very disappointed. "W-What? I improved, did I not?" Nux questioned. "Well you did, I just can't believe that having your level of body balance is humanly possible." "Uggh… don't compare me with your standards okay… I wasn't trained since I was a child…" Nux complained. It has been 7 days since he and Thyra started training together, she first started teaching him the killing moves and everything was going great. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢 However, as they moved deeper and deeper, the moves got complicated and no matter how much Nux tried, he could not comprehend them at all. Seeing this, Thyra frowned as well. She then asked Nux to copy her however, Nux wasn't able to do that as well, somewhere, in some way, his form was incorrect and Thyra wasn't able to find the reason behind it. Thyra then asked him to spar with her and after 2 hours of sparring, Thyra finally understood the problem. Nux's body balance was a mess. A complete mess. It was such a big mess that Thyra couldn't believe that he was a cultivator who is stronger than her. To deal with that, she came up with this training, however, Nux wasn't even able to clear this basic level of dodging the attacks aimed at the face, shoulders and legs. This was troublesome. Thyra had to end the training that day. Then the next day, she came up with a set of exercises to increase the flexibility of the body and only after doing that set of exercises for the next 4 days did Nux's body get somewhat better. Seeing some progress, Thyra then told him to stand on the bamboo again and dodge the stones. This time, his performance was a lot better than before. And as for today, Nux was finally able to beat the first level of Bamboo training. Of course, it was only the first level, there were a total of 4 levels and only after Nux is able to clear all those levels would Thyra teach him other, more complex techniques. "It's just basic body balance, don't act like it's something very hard to achieve," Thyra muttered. "Are you saying that Felberta, Skyla, Lane and Edda's body balance is better than mine?" Nux questioned. "Huh? I don't know about before, but there is no way they can be compared to you now." "So my body balance is better than them?" "Mhm," Thyra nodded. "Then how is it a basic body balance? Aren't I already above average?" "Hmph! As if being above average would work. Now let's start it again." Thyra just snorted and picked the stones again. "Wait, let me ask something," Nux interrupted. "Why aren't Skyla and the others going through this training, I heard you are making them practice those killing techniques." "Huh? I am sure I told them not to tell you what I am teaching them…" Thyra frowned. "Do you seriously think they will keep a secret from me?" A playful smile appeared on Nux's face. Thyra's face twitched in irritation, "Oh c'mon, don't be angry, do you seriously think you can keep any secret from me?" Nux questioned as he raised his hand and acted as if he was squeezing something soft. Thyra's face turned a little red, however, soon, she returned back to her expressionless face and she muttered, "Alright, let's continu-" "You still haven't answered me, why aren't Skyla and the others going through this training?" "…" Thyra turned silent as she glanced at Nux. Then, a sigh escaped from her mouth and she answered, "What I want to teach you is something I gained through my hard work and relentless efforts. It is not something that can be compared to the killing techniques I taught my subordinates and what I am teaching to Skyla and the others, It is something much stronger and more complicated. It is my real treasure. It is everything I know, my whole life experience. It is the core of my being. Call me selfish if you want, but no matter how close I am with Skyla, Felberta, Edda and Lane, I can't bring myself to teach them the core of my being. I can't bring myself to give them my only treasure." "…" Nux turned silent as he glanced at Thyra who was avoiding his gaze with a guilty look on her face. The more he looked at her, the faster Thyra's heart started beating and she panicked. 'Should I have taught them my technique? They are my sisters after all… I shouldn't be so selfish… Does he thinks I am a self-centred woman…?' However, contrary to what she was thinking, a smile appeared on Nux's face as he muttered, "You are just so precious, my lovely Thyra."
