Traitor Of Humanity 56 Incest?

The reason that he hesitated to get violent was that that teacher had not always been so abusive. Before Seth had killed an elder of the school, that teacher had been normal, diligent, and attentive, a teacher that would persistently put forth the necessary effort to get his students to learn the subject he teaches.

Perhaps that elder that Seth killed had some relation to him, and for that, he was angry at him? Or so Seth overthought. In reality, it was just a matter of money. After his yearly bonus is taken away, that teacher Serge would surely blame Seth and hit him again; But Seth would not know this.

"Yes, headmaster!" Elder Gano replied. He and his direct subordinates are the ones whom dish out the teachers' salaries. He was more than happy to take back some money for the school's treasury, after how much it was emptied out to build that aquarium for the fresh fish opening ceremony. As for that teacher named Serge? He can only blame himself for being a fool, to have annoyed the headmaster.

...

A few days later...

Dressed in her school uniform, Nala Zefer was walking through the 1st floor of the Savant Snake alchemic school's high school building. She was heading towards her cla.s.sroom.

She had been away from school for almost 2 months. During that time, she had broken through from the 2nd stage of cultivation to the 3rd, gave birth to her first child, and then spent the next 6 weeks recovering from her weakness.

To be honest, she could have easily recovered from that weak period, had she just taken some healing elixirs. But it looked like her husband had completely forgotten about that option.

That allowed Nala to skip cla.s.ses for a longer amount of time, and to allow Seth to dote on her for all that time.

Currently, her newborn child is being taken care of by a nanny, the same nanny that had raised Seth in the place of his mother when he was young. Thus, she did not have much to worry about, and came back to school. It would not look good if she were to let herself fall behind her cla.s.smates by too much, after all.

As Nala continued walking, behind is a miniature shopping cart being push along. It is following right behind her, but none of the students whom walked past her could see her pulling it, nor could they see what is pushing it. Only Nala can see the bipedal blue striped kitty pushing it along. Everyone else just thought that it was Nala using a magic spell. Not knowing the truth, they would look at her with envy in their eyes, wondering when they themselves will get to learn magic from the school.

Inside the shopping cart, are various flowers and miscellaneous items, including baby clothes and kiddy toys. Today, as soon as she had entered the campus, one student after another came up to her, to congratulate her for giving birth to a baby, and to gift her something. Most of those students were cla.s.smates whom she had shared cla.s.ses with, but there were also some whom she had never met.

When she asked what was going on, they said that today is something called a 'Maternity Return Day', a day where all the students in the school have to gift something to a mother who has brought a child into the world this year.

Nala had a feeling, that her husband, Seth, is the one behind this. Otherwise, how could it be, that not only is this 'Maternity Return Day' set on the exact date when she came back to school, but the holiday before it, that 'Maternity Leave Day', was set on the day when she left?

Unfortunately, Nala knew, that even if she were to ask Seth about it, he would only deny knowing anything. While she thinks that is a charming part about him, she honestly does not think he is tricking anyone. There are already plenty of people looking at her all suspiciously.

The only thing that Nala is wondering about is, how did Seth managed to convince the headmaster into making all these holidays? Did he manage to befriend him somehow?

Speaking of her husband...

It wasn't until after Nala had enrolled into school here in dark ash city and made some female friends, that she had learned of the word, 'incest', something that, despite there being no laws against it, is looked down upon by most members of society.

Both Nala and Seth had been born from the same father, but different mothers. Thus, they can be considered as half-siblings. This blood relation is already thick enough to consider their current relationship, as incest.

Unfortunately, by the time that Nala had learned of this, she and Seth had already married and had already started sleeping together. This 'sleeping' does not refer to the resting side by side they did back when they were cute little children, but the committing of s.e.xual acts they did with each other after the both of them had reached p.u.b.erty. It was already too late by then... It was no wonder that during their wedding, her friends had such strange expressions when they were congratulating her.

Although honestly, despite being looked upon badly by some people, Nala does not regret marrying Seth at all.

Her husband is handsome. Few young men in dark ash city can say that they look better than him, and even if they do, the difference is hardly noticeable. He is kind; Maybe not to others, but he always treats her very lovingly, despite being a bit insensitive sometimes. And as a plus, he is also very strong, strong enough to give her a great sense of security.

There may be men outside of this city whom are more handsome, have better personalities, and whom are more reliable, but Nala has never met one yet. She is already very happy with her current husband, and no amount of outsiders' derision is going to change that. Thus, there is no need for her to regret.

Instead, she actually wonders why people look down on incest so much. When she asked her friends, they didn't even know.

Thus, she asked her husband, who always seem so all-knowing, and this was what he had to say:

"Incest? Oh, that. Some people say that it is because of the problems that can crop up in the children produced by two people of close blood relations. Other say that people who grow up together feel a natural sense of aversion to each other. That makes it so that the very idea of incest disgusts them. Even the incest committed by others disgust them."

"For the first one, so what? Even if problems crop up in the children that we have, that is for us to deal with. Outsiders should shut up! ...For the second, Nala, do you dislike me?"

When Seth asked her that, Nala had immediately shook her head.

When her husband saw her immediate denial, he smiled and said, "Then my answer remains the same. As long as there's love, what does it matter? Those outsiders should stop projecting their own bad sibling-relations onto others, and just shut up! Hahaha!" He laughed out loud as he patted her head.

Then, Nala recalled something else that her friends had mentioned. "Then, what about when a parent sleeps with their child?" That is also included in the definition of incest.

When Seth heard that, a frown appeared on his face. He thought for a moment before answering: "I wonder... When it comes to that, if the disgust that people feel, is towards the incest itself, or towards the pedophilia involved when an old man sleeps with his much younger daughter... Though, if we were to talk about pedophilia, emperors do that all the time. Even when they're old and gray, they have fresh teenage girls in their harems, and no one ever criticizes them about that; So that's probably not it... Simply put, I don't know. In any case, all such pedophiles should just go die, as soon as possible."
