Chapter 306
Noah wasn't exactly what was called a sociable person .
His only real interest was his personal power which generally occupied all his thoughts .
Yet, that didn't mean that he was completely detached from the usual human emotions, he still felt them but he had far more important things to do .
The truth was that he pitied the woman a bit .
'Born in a prison, forced to fight for her country, life here mustn't be easy . '
He understood her situation because he had lived a similar one too .
'She also reminds me of June, their appearance is totally different though . '
Seeing her battle outfit and her spontaneous answers, Noah couldn't help but think about that wild girl with whom he had shared his life in the academy .
Her image unconsciously appeared in his mind, her long silver hair casually laying on her white skin were a memory that gave him some peaceful sensations .
There were really a few persons in his second life that he could trust and June was one of them, well, he was sure that she had no ill intentions toward him at least .
Yet, recalling her also reminded him of the reason why he was in that situation and he couldn't help but make that statement .
"Cruel?"
She asked, she wanted a more detailed explanation .
Noah didn't mind speaking to her, his cultivation wasn't hindered by that action and he felt that interaction quite pleasant .
Being always alone was a habit of his but that didn't mean that he couldn't enjoy a normal conversation .
"The powerful exploits the weak to become even more powerful . The Utra nation is ruled by nobles who detain the cultivation methods of the country, commoners are treated like beasts or turned into loyal soldiers, no one can escape that fate . "
Noah spoke calmly, he knew exactly how the noble families managed that nation .
"But you did it, right?"
She asked but Noah simply shook his head .
"I just exchanged one prison with a bigger one, freedom seems to always escape my grasp . "
Balvan mansion, the Royal family, the Odrea nation, everywhere he went, he would always end up in the same situation .
"Well, rejoice! We are all prisoners here!"
She laughed again, trying to lift Noah's morale a bit before she resumed her stare on the upward passage .
"My name is Nina in case you were wondering . "
"Adam . "
Noah plainly replied .
"I was sure it was Noah… You might not remember it but I was there the day you were captured . "
Nina said in a playful tone .
"Call me whatever you want, it's not like you can spread this information to my enemies . "
"Oh my, you even have enemies, maybe you should really be a prisoner . "
That last line made Noah chuckle, he couldn't help but agree with her .
"You can even laugh! Can you do that again in front of the other soldiers? No one would believe me otherwise…"
Nina playfully mocked Noah, making him enjoy her company even more .
They spoke for a long time, Nina basically told him her whole life, she seemed really happy to have found someone that didn't know her .
