Chapter 40: Henya Ye Mastien (2)
“My disciple is too good for me.”
This was a pet phrase of Marina, Henya’s master.
“My disciple is too good for me.”
Each time she said these words, her face would radiate affection and pride for her student.
“My disciple is too good for me.”
But at some point, her expression began to change when she spoke them.
-Master. I’ve told you many times, but you don’t need to provide me with material support. If there’s something I need, just let me know. I can acquire it myself.
-This ring...the one you gave me, remember? I don’t think I need it anymore. I’ve found something more suitable, you see. I’ll return it to you.
“My disciple is too good for me.”
Henya was a disciple of impeccable conduct. Marina would joke that even if she weren’t around, her disciple wouldn’t go hungry anywhere.
-No, Master. It’s enough. From now on, I’ll think and learn on my own.
