The other tutors had long gotten used to the presence of the demon behind Ellis.Although the young mentor always had a calm and strict appearance, free from outside interference, whenever Nyx was around, there would always be some interludes that people couldn't help but see happening.
For example, Nyx had started to lose his temper again.
On this day, in the tutor lounge, several senior tutors were drinking tea and leisurely discussing their teaching progress.Not long after, a mentee timidly pushed the door in and carefully reported:
"Fellow tutors, there seems to be a bit of a situation on Tutor Ellis's side ... uh ...."
Several mentors glanced at each other, a look of realization flashing in their eyes.
"Say, what did Nyx do again?"
The mentee held his tongue for half a day before squeezing out a sentence, "Uh... he, he was lectured by Mentor Ellis this morning, and now he's wandering around the academy, ignoring the mentors."
A tutor almost laughed out loud, "Having a tantrum again?"
"Yes ... yes."
Steven slowly sipped a mouthful of tea, smiled and lamented, "Tsk, I told you, Ellis this child is still too young and inexperienced in bringing up a child, if I were to do it differently, I definitely wouldn't make the demon angry."
Meclair on the side snorted, "Just you?Back then I advised you to coax your magical elf properly, what did you say back to me?'Can elves and pets be the same?'"
"That's not the same, the one I had back then was ..."
"A self-regulating, high-energy cohesive body blessed by elemental rhythms, right?"Meclair smiled meaningfully.
Several mentors couldn't help but let out a low laugh.
At this time, another tutor came to report, "Tutor Ellis is now looking for Nyx, who is hiding in the Potions classroom and refuses to come out.The Potions tutor just came to the lounge for tea and said he doesn't care either."
A tutor sighed, "This kid Ellis, ah, academically he's a talent, bringing up a child is ..."
"If he is willing to listen to our advice and coax a little, wouldn't there be no such thing?"
"Do you think he would?He was the kind of person who couldn't listen to 'a little coaxing' back then."
"Haha, indeed.You see when he used to interact with those elf contractors, he completely didn't understand the 'feeding, pacifying, and smoothing' set of people, and now it's his turn, and as a result, he's been shrugged off by that demon at home, right?"
"Serves you right."
At this time, Ellis pushed the door in, his gaze faintly sweeping over the group of snickering tutors, "Everyone, I've come to borrow some magic potions."
"Is it to coax a demon to use it?"
Ellis looked at them expressionlessly, seemingly too lazy to respond to the question, just calmly took a few bottles of magic potions and turned to leave.
The moment the door closed, a burst of laughter erupted from the tutor's lounge.
"Hahaha, he looks like he's calm, but in reality, he must have a headache!"
"Sooner or later, he'll learn to 'coax properly'."
"Let's wait and see."
On this day, in the tutors' lounge, several senior tutors were sitting around, with a hint of 'coming from the past' in their eyes as they looked at Ellis, who was sitting on the opposite side of the room.
Ellis was holding a cup of tea in his hand, his face expressionless, obviously forced to listen to this "lecture".
"Ellis."A female tutor spoke in a serious tone, "Have you noticed that recently, Nyx has become more and more talkative, and he also loses his temper at every turn?"
Ellis' complexion remained unchanged as he faintly said, "He's always been like this."
"But hasn't it gotten worse lately?"The other mentor added, "Like, if you criticize him one time, he can chill out on you for a whole day?Like, if you tell him to stop pulling pranks, he can keep up the mischief the next time in a more subtle way?"
Ellis was silent for a split second.Indeed, Nix used to play tricks openly and honestly, but now he's become much more cunning, and he's also learned to act pitifully, what's even more strange is that every time after he's been disciplined, rumors spread in the academy that "Mentor Ellis bullied the soft demon".
The female tutor smiled and nodded, "See, you found it.That means he's in the rebellious stage of adolescence right now."
Ellis frowned, "Demons have puberty too?"
"Of course!"The mentors replied in unison.
