Joanna and other students nervously waited to hear what Mr Fin would say.
"In my entire journey of life I have never met anyone who shared the same ideal with me about the true qualities that make a Great Queen except…," Mr Fin trailed as he diverted his attention back to the dude standing in front of him with a puzzled look on his face.
[I am sure my answer was satisfactory so what game is he trying to play now? Is he perhaps going to use this opportunity to punish me for disrupting his class…. And has he forgotten that I am still the King?]
Amos felt nervous for some reason since he wasn't aware of what Mr Fin was scheming.
"You. So, young man, I must compliment you for sharing the same ideal with me on this issue. You are a man of wisdom and I foresee that you will go many places," Mr Fin said to his relief of Joanna.
She couldn't resist smiling when she saw the broad smile on Mr Fin's face.
The students whose applauds were now echoing in the hall could swear that this is the first time they have seen Mr Fin smile.
His face was always deprived of a smile, some students even concluded that he had facial paralysis which is why he couldn't smile.
With this broad smile of his, he proved their assumptions incorrect.
"If he was going to compliment him then why did he have that long face? I can't believe he made me worried for nothing," Joanna let out a sigh of relief and leaned her back against the brown chair.
"Like I promised the seat close to her is yours but... I will advise that you exercise great self-control so you don't get distracted by her beauty," Mr Fin joked as he pointed at the empty chair beside Joanna's seat.
His words made the students chuckle.
"I never knew a stern man like Mr Fin knows how to joke. He looks less scary and very approachable now. I wish he is always this way," one of the girls sitting behind Joanna's seat said her gaze glued on Mr Fin's face.
Although Mr Fin was advanced in age more than them, he still looked very young. In fact, in terms of looks and youthful vigour, there was no difference between him and his male students.
Some of his students couldn't hold a candle to his handsome look.
"I have always had the belief that being physically powerful is not one of the qualities of a Great Queen and this will never change in years to come," Mr Fin addressed his class after Amos has taken his seat right beside Joanna.
"And this why I always laughed each time ignorant people say that physical strength is a criteria for choosing our Queen…," Mr Fin trailed. He walked about as he talked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I mean Luna Sharon was a human with no supernatural abilities like vampires or werewolves but she is known as one of the greatest Luna, so why must our King's chosen woman be powerful before she is accepted as the true Queen?" Mr Fin asked.
He paused for a minute to let his words sink into the mind of the students hoping that he would be able to change their rotten mindset.
"Also what's the guarantee that the powerful lady you choose to be the Queen won't turn a tyrant after she has a taste of power?" Mr Fin asked.
Joanna whose gaze has been patiently following every movement Mr Fin makes, waiting for him to avert his attention from the two of them finally got her golden opportunity when he walked to the left side of the room.
She turned in time to see Amos looking at her face intently.
"What's it?" She questioned frowning. "You have been constantly looking at my face ever since you stepped into the hall, do I have something on my face?" Joanna asked in almost a whisper.
"Because you look astonishing," As usual, Amos was blunt with his reply but unfortunately it didn't have the same effect, unlike other days.
For a minute Joanna's heart leapt in excitement hearing his reply.
[How could you get excited after what he did to you? Have you no shame huh?]
Joanna scolded herself. She tilted her head sideways to avoid looking at him.
Seeing that she was trying to avoid him, Amos drew closer and bent slightly so that his mouth was close to her right ear.
"I recalled you said that fateful day I got you this dress that never will you wear it so what happened huh?" Amos asked, making sure to rub his shoulder against hers.
Joanna moved a bit to avoid getting close to him but Amos was too shameless to keep his distance knowing very well that they were in a lecture hall.
"Did you go back on your words and wear it today because you wanted to look good for me…,"
"You are mistaken if that is what you think," Joanna cut in softly. Although she made sure to maintain her low tone she didn't know that the ladies sitting behind were watching them with frowns on their faces.
"I was in a hurry so Little rice ball offered to pick an outfit for me. He was the one who selected the dress and everything I am wearing so don't get the wrong idea," Joanna went into unnecessary explanation despite that Amos didn't ask for it.
Although she made it clear that Anthony picked the dress for her, he didn't look convinced by her reply.
[Why do I feel like my hunch about her wearing the dress to look good for me is correct… Is she perhaps scared I would tease her if she admits?]
Amos was so distracted looking at Joanna that he didn't hear a single word Mr Fin said. The same with Joanna.
"Is it so hard for you to admit that you wore the dress for me huh?" Amos asked as he stretched his hands to touch her but Joanna beats his hand away.
"If they want to flirt then why must they do it in the lecture hall and served as a source of distraction for other students?" Amos, who was trying to touch Joanna again, stopped in his tracks when he heard the complaint of one of the ladies sitting behind them.

HAPPY ENDING OF THE MONTH EVERYONE!!!
I only get to do this once a month so I want to use this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of my readers who supported this book this August 2022.
Although my expectations were far from being met and so were the goals far from being accomplished, I still want to let you guys know that I appreciate all the hard work and resources you have put into this book.
Lately, my mind has been in turmoil. For my old readers who followed me from my previous books, I am sure you know that I would have given multiple mass releases each month even though you guys didn't reach the goals. But this didn't happen because of the current situation I am going through.
My mental health has been suffering for over two months now. Just so I won't disappoint you (My lovely readers) who must be waiting for updates daily, I have been trying my best to update daily.
I just want to use this medium to tell you guys that I might be forced to take a break from writing if this continues. But let's all hope it doesn't get to that stage.
As I give my all to make sure you get nothing but the best, please help this poor author out. Let's try our best to do much better next month. I believe that you guys are capable of making your darling author proud so I will look forward to seeing some improvements next month.

SPECIAL SHOUTOUT
A special shout-out to all the readers who bought privileged chapters for August. I would have loved to mention your names also but unfortunately, authors on Web don't know readers who bought privileged chapters except the readers leave a comment on the purchased chapter.
...
Thank you so much to all my readers, both the active and the silent ones.
To all my silent readers, I wish one day you will let go of your quietness and become a source of motivation to me too.
Thank you so much once again, everyone.
P.S: The reason why there was no review category was that as usual all of you had decided not to leave a single review on the work.
Also, last month it was only one person who repeatedly kept commenting which is why DaoistTzoOew is the only reader who dominated that category.
Keep on supporting the book if you want your name to be included on the list
