Bab 286: Playing With Fire

[Half an hour earlier]

“Cillian! Eyes on your enemy!” Slayer shouted at his young disciple when he saw him getting distracted.

“Yes, sir!” Cillian quickly looked away from the lady who he kept on seeing around in the manor. He looked at the wooden statue in front of him and then aimed his sword at that statue’s neck.

Slayer came and stood beside his disciple. And he scolded Cillian for not giving his full attention in the practice session. “Why do you keep on looking behind you? Is that lady more interesting to you than learning to fight? If that’s so, then I will gladly take you back to the place I found you and leave you there.”

Cillian hung his head low and then apologized to his master. “Please forgive me, sir. I was simply wondering who that lady was since I keep on seeing her.”
