Early morning of the fourth day.
Su Chen, who was training his combat energy in the courtyard, found that he was somewhat addicted to this training.
The intense pain caused by the stimulation of combat energy could temporarily distract him.
Su Chen still got up early and practiced his combat energy and sword techniques in the courtyard of the castle. After a long period of hard work and continuous training, coupled with the abundant meat in each meal, Su Chen’s ordinary body was also covered by a layer of toned muscles, and his spiritual temperament had also improved a level compared to before.
The combat energy in his body had also become thicker and thicker from the thin threads.
After he deliberately slowed down the speed of the circulation of his combat energy, the range of the penetration of his combat energy had been increasing. The various tissues in his body were absorbing and strengthening his combat energy, the amount of combat energy stored in his body was also greater than that of an ordinary person.
When he could release his sword energy through the combat energy stored in his body through his sword skills, it would be the sign of his advancement to a Silver Knight. It could be said that being a silver knight stage was a watershed for a knight to truly possess combat power.
This was still different from the nature of the Glimmer Knights.
The Glimmer Knights only had the physical quality of a silver knight and had extremely strong combat awareness. However, they were still unable to release their combat energy and use their combat skills.
This was also an important reason that restricted the Glimmer Knights’ combat strength.
Su Chen also wanted to advance the Glimmer Knights. He could only rely on the system’s rewards. Therefore, at this stage, he could only continuously strengthen his own strength and advance into a silver knight as soon as possible. Only then would he have higher combat strength.
After Su Chen’s combat aura was exhausted, he began to practice his sword techniques. Now, he could already mobilize a small portion of his combat aura and transfer it to his one-handed sword through his arm.
The slender knight’s sword emitted a faint white light after being injected with the combat energy. The blade of the sword was extremely sharp under the enhancement of the combat energy. Under Su Chen’s strong swing, it emitted power and momentum that far exceeded his usual.
When Evelyn sent the hot milk to the courtyard, she found that Su Chen, who should have finished his training at this time, was still doing strength training with his upper body bare.
The muscles on his upper body were well-proportioned and full of lines, which made him look strong. As the movements of his strength changed, the muscles in each part of his body bulged alternately. A large amount of sweat dripped onto the hard and flat stone slab along with the vibration of the muscles.
Evelyn looked at Su Chen sitting on the huge stone used for strength training. He took the steaming hot milk and drank it slowly. With a heavy heart, he seemed to be a little silent. He did not joke with her, and as usual, she wanted to comfort him, but she did not know how to say it. She could not help the mayor.
She felt that she was useless, and sadness began to flood her.
Su Chen drank the milk and observed his personal maid. Today, she wore a white lace maid dress and he sewed a cute bow on the dress,
Her thin and sallow face was now rosy, and she was hesitant to speak,
“Evelyn, I think you have something on your mind?” Su Chen handed the empty cup to Evelyn and asked.
“Ah! Mayor, Evelyn was distracted and was shocked by Su Chen’s sudden scream. I… I don’t have anything on my mind. I just saw that you seemed to be troubled and wanted to share some of the burdens with you…”
Su Chen felt a wave of comfort in his heart. It was not in vain for him to take care of her so well.
There was really nothing that she could help with right now. However, judging from her expression, if he said that there was nothing that she could help with, she would definitely be sad for a long time.
Su Chen thought about it and moved his aching muscles slightly.
“Evelyn, if there’s nothing else, can you help me relax my muscles?”
“I can just massage them.”
“How about this? I’ll take a shower first. In a while, you can bring breakfast to the room and give me a massage.”
After Su Chen said that, he picked up the linen coat beside the huge rock and walked into the room.
Evelyn’s eyes lit up after hearing that. It was great to help the mayor relieve his physical fatigue! She immediately nodded and said, “Evelyn is happy to serve you!”
Su Chen’s deep muscle pain could not be relieved by Evelyn’s gentle massage, but it was a good way to comfort Evelyn. It was very suitable for the current situation.
The bathroom and bedroom of the castle were set on the third floor. There was a small door between the bathroom and the bedroom. After taking a shower, one could directly go back to the bedroom.
When Evelyn brought the tray to the bedroom on the third floor, Su Chen had just showered and entered the bathroom through the small door. He was wearing a pair of loose shorts, and there were still a few drops of water on his bare upper body that had not been wiped off with a bath towel.
“Here is your favorite grilled steak,” Evelyn said as she placed the huge tray on the bedroom table.
Su Chen had a large portion of steak for breakfast every day to replenish his energy consumption. The steak was covered with spices and grilled. The rich aroma made him eager to eat.
Su Chen used a small knife to cut the steak and quickly stuffed the meat into his mouth with a fork. “It’s delicious!” He sighed in his heart. The animals that grew up in this primitive environment were even more delicious than the steaks he had eaten in his previous life, the fragrance was even stronger.
Evelyn wanted to massage Su Chen’s muscles behind his back.
Su Chen, who had just finished his training, was still steaming hot. Evelyn moved a little closer to Su Chen’s body and felt as if she was standing in front of a small heater.
Evelyn placed her palms on Su Chen’s shoulders. She wanted to start massaging him, but she felt a little helpless. She had never touched a man’s naked body before.
She had made a promise just now. Now, she could only close her eyes and risk it all.
When a person closed his eyes, their other feelings would be strengthened.
When Evelyn’s hands touched Su Chen’s shoulders, she felt a warm stream of heat coming from her originally cold little hands into her body. She felt much warmer in this cold weather.
She wanted to help Su Chen massage his shoulder, but she could not muster the strength to do so. She only felt her whole body go soft, and the hand that touched Su Chen’s skin was not under her control.
When Su Chen was happily munching on meat, he felt Evelyn’s cold little hand placed behind his shoulder staying still for a long time. When he turned around, he saw Evelyn with her face flushed red and her eyes tightly shut.
“Evelyn, are you… Sick? You don’t have to do anything today. Just rest on my bed. My room is warmer.”
After saying that, she turned around and picked up Evelyn, who was light as a feather, and stuffed her into her big bed. Then, she helped Evelyn cover herself with the blanket.
Evelyn felt that her brain could no longer think,
“The aura of my Lord has become stronger..”
