"Did you get something wrong? Aren't we the students?" Nicola frowned and asked. I was worried that the teacher would punish us, but now the situation has completely reversed.
"I know!" The teacher quickly lifted her head and said, "But you are all six-winged angels like me. Although we are of the same rank, you want me to be your teacher. This makes me feel a bit awkward..."
"It doesn't matter if we are on the same level! This is not a fight or battle. We mainly want to learn some basic knowledge," I said puzzlingly, also wondering what Elara had told her. The choice of location was also very problematic. Were we going to learn through fighting each other?
"You are newborn angels who have reached six wings after just one month. It took me over 300 years to reach this level. The pressure on me is tremendous..." she replied with a wry smile.
"Furthermore, Lady Elara attaches great importance to you all and has specially instructed me to teach you well and be sure to satisfy any of your requests without slighting you."
"This is..." Both Angela and I were somewhat speechless.
It seems Elara is used to imprinting memories and has no clue about normal teaching. Her orders have turned a teacher into a servant.
"Is she usually like this with you?" I whispered to Cyra, feeling Elara's personality was also problematic for making such an angel our teacher.
"No! Although Teacher Aetna is usually very gentle, Reed and I have lower ranks so she is not as respectful to us," Cyra denied while adding:
"But what she just said sounds a bit familiar. After I created magic and got recognition, the orders Elara gave to Mona assisting Reed were quite similar..."
"I see!" Nicola suddenly realized.
"It looks like Elara puts us and Reed in the same category and thinks such arrangements would also aid our learning. Little did she know Reed does research and would take the initiative to study, completely different from me."
"Um, Teacher Aetna right..." Noticing the situation, I quickly spoke up:
"You don't need to be so cautious with us. Just teach us basic knowledge like usual. just teach us the way you did to Cyra. That will do!"
"What? Then wouldn't I have to learn it all over again?" Cyra protested discontentedly.
"With so few angels, we can't possibly find another teacher. We'll just have to understand!" I helplessly comforted her and proposed:
"You've learnt it anyway so no need to redo it. You can read books by yourself like Reed."
"No way! I don't want to learn like Reed, all by myself. I'd rather learn together with you again. Since I know it all, I could even crush you! Just thinking about it excites me!" Cyra rejected.
"You're just wasting time!" I tried advising her but she could do as she wished.
"Teach the way I do? So I get to decide everything to teach? Is that okay?" Aetna still felt uncertain and sought confirmation again.
"After all, Cyra only has two wings while yours are so high-ranked. You must have comprehended a lot yourselves, right? My repeating it might seem redundant..."
"It's fine! Elara should have told you, just teach us the basics. And even if we comprehend some things, we still want to systematically learn them. We may have missed stuff," Nicola impatiently urged.
"I see..." Hearing our affirmation, Aetna finally breathed out in relief and slapped her chest saying:
"I was worried you might not obey and want to test my abilities by fighting me...that's why I purposely chose this arena today..."
