Chapter 1367
Nanako was at aplete loss for words as she was faced with Charlie’s question.
After being speechless for a moment, she suddenly blushed out of embarrassment.
This was because Charlie was right, regardless of whether it was based on emotions or reasoning.
In the final analysis, her master was indeed the one who had been asking for trouble in this whole
matter. Charlie was not at fault.
Nanako, who felt very ashamed of herself, could only bow respectfully in front of Charlie as she
said, "Mr. Wade, I was too impulsive. Please understand. At the same time, I hope that you will not
hold it against me."
Charlie nodded slightly.
He also understood Nanako’s feelings to a certain extent.
After all, everyone could be objective and fair when it was not about themselves. However, when it
came to something that was obviously rted to them and concerned their own interests, then it
would be very difficult for them to be absolutely objective at that point.
It was just like when someone else’s child makes a mistake. You would always hope that he would
get his just punishment. However, when your own child
makes a mistake, you would always hope that everyone could just forgive him and give him another
chance, s
Kazuki was Nanako’s mentor. Japan and Oskia’s traditional cultures were very simr. The people
from both of these countries emphasized holding utmost respects to teachers and their teachings.
Therefore, Charlie could ept it and he understood the reason why Nanako was being so
respectful and defensive when it came to Kazuki.
This was understandable. 5
Charlie understood what she was feeling at this time, but he would not change his opinions or
decisions because of her. 4
So, he said in a t tone, "Miss Ito, since you’re also a participant in thispetition, you should
have respect for thispetition. You shouldn''t give up on thispetition or choose to forfeit
halfway.
Otherwise, you’ll only be showing utter disrespect forbat and fighting.” 5
Nanako replied desperately, "Mr. Wade, your strength and abilities have opened my eyes and made
me well aware of what a real master''s skill level is. Compared t o your skills, my fighting skills are
only at the level of a beginner. In fact, I might not even be at the level of a beginner as I might not
be as good as they are. Therefore, I do not feel worthy of continuing to participate in this
competition in your presence...” 7
Charlie shook his head and said, "When ites tobat and fighting, it doesn''t necessarily
mean that you''ll have topete with others. In fact,bat and fighting isn''t only a sport, but it is
also a form of culture and spirit. So, are you saying that people with poor strength would not be
qualified to learnbat and fighting then? Is that why you feel that you can just give up on the
competition with peace of mind just because you think that your fighting skills are much lower
compared to mine?" 5
Charlie paused slightly before he spoke in a serious tone, word by word, "If that''s really the case,
then I can only say that you don’t actually have love forbat and fighting at all. In fact, what you
love is nothing more than ranking. When you think that you are at a very high rank, you lovebat
and fighting.
However, when you think that you''re at a low rank, you decide to turn your back and betraybat
and fighting instead! That can only mean that you aren’t a loyalbat and fighting warrior at all!" 3
Nanako blurted out hastily, "No, it''s not like that! I lovebat and fighting! I''m also a loyal warrior!
I''m just... I''m just..." i
Charlie asked sharply, "You''re just what?"
Nanako was extremely nervous when he questioned her. She immediately lowered her head
ashamedly and she gave up on defending herself as she said softly, "Mr. Wade, you''re right...! was
wrong...I shouldn''t give up and forfeit this match just like this! I shouldn''t betraybat and fighting
at this time!" 6
Charlie replied, "Make sure that you fight a good match. I also hope that you''ll be able topete
against Aurora in the final match."
Nanako suddenly had a very determined look in her eyes. She nodded earnestly as she said, "I
understand, Mr. Wade! Don''t worry. I''ll definitely fight well and move on to the next level! I''m looking
forward topeting against your apprentice!”
Charlie waved his hand and said, "Aurora isn''t my apprentice. She''s just my friend, or strictly
speaking, she''s my friend’s daughter. I’m simply temporarily serving as her coach for these few
days just to give her some help and advice."
Nanako asked in surprise, "Mr. Wade, you aren''t a professional coach?"
Charlie smiled as he said, "Of course not. I am just a vagrant who has no upation at all." 1
"Unemployed?"
Nanako had a shocked and incredulous look on her face.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
