Mu Liang stretched on the bed unaware that his mother-in-law had already made plans for him. His bluish-black hair was tied in a loose braid and he rolled a little on the spacious bed, Gyasi had already left for morning training at the military base.
The day would follow a different schedule, today he and Gyasi would see the emperor again at a private dinner, Mu Liang hoped he wouldn't pass out again, the first time had been embarrassing enough.
"Prince, it's time to get up" Chen Qian called from outside the room. It was already eight o'clock in the morning and there was still breakfast before the prince did the basic morning exercises and took all the physical strengthening remedies.
After reconciliation with Gyasi, the prince asked many questions about the medicines he was taking and asked Alessandra-066 also to confirm the veracity of each medicine.
Strangely, there were three remedies to control mental powers, but the effects were very weak. The side and harmful effects, on the other hand, didn't compensate for the medication intake. The deeds made it difficult to control emotions, which caused anger attacks and a terrible mood in the original Mu Liang.
"Chen Qian, from now on I will not take these medicines," Mu Liang said holding the three medicine bottles, he had already consulted with the system and he could replace the medicines with just a single pill from the goddess Lan-Lan's package.
"With these two drugs here I can control my mental powers well," Mu Liang said, taking two fat pills the size of a coin. One pill was green and the other was pink.
The green pill is the Soothing Grass Pill, made from a 1000-year-old herb bathed in divine waters in the divine pantheon, created by alchemist gods. It has the effect of calming the mind, he only needs to take one pill a week or if his mental power for some external reason becomes unstable.
The pink pill is the Serene Waves Pill, whose main ingredient is the mystical water of the great vacuum river and was created by the moon goddess, the basic effect is to reconcile the soul and the mind in one.
In case only the first pill has the function of controlling mental power; the second pill is to help Mu Liang's soul to integrate with the powers of the new body.
"Understood," Chen Qian and Chong Ji said at the same time. They still had doubts about these High Elf pills, but they also didn't dare ask about it.
Anyway, they would see for themselves the effects of the pill, if they didn't work they could only insist that Mu Liang take the injectable drugs again.
"Host, today you must take the Mountain Strengthening pill. It is a pill to strengthen the body, you can take it once a week. Along with injectable drugs, the body's recovery will be much faster "
The system warned Mu Liang that he also took out a golden-yellow pill and took it after explaining to his assistants about the effects of the pill. This was a catalyst pill that would increase the effectiveness by 50% of injectable drugs. Now that Mu Liang's soul was more stable, he could take the medicine from the goddess Lan-Lan's package.
"Now let's run for a while," Wu Jian said happily. He was Mu Liang's exercise partner. He would run and practice yoga with Prince Mu, another omega would do a strengthening exercise with the prince and another omega would teach a little self-defense combat.
Mu Liang and Wu Jian went to a separate area that served to train the imperial guards that were in the visitors' area, but as Prince Mu needed to use at this time from ten in the morning until two in the afternoon it was empty for them.
The area was large and covered, there was a long circular running track, a free target shot, a gym for weights, and some items of energetic waves to strengthen the resistance of the imperial guards. There were more things, but they were saved or closed for non-use.
Mu Liang only used the running track and the gym to strengthen his muscles. The shooting range was forbidden and the wave area was also prohibited, after all, he still had an FFF body, if he dared to play there he would end up going back to be a clinical patient.
Wu Jian and Mu Liang used the track for about 30 minutes, in which Mu Liang warmed up running for 15 minutes and the other 15 minutes were endurance running without a break all over the track.
Well, he didn't pass out or fall off at the end, which is a breakthrough even though he is still catching his breath, while he picks up a towel from Wu Jian that seemed just refreshed and a little more flushed than usual.
Their difference seemed like a slap of reality on Prince Mu's face, but it strengthened the thought that he had to improve more.
Then they went to the gym and started the yoga process, Mu Liang's body was flexible, but had little resistance so it was very difficult to stay in the same position for a long time.
Yoga took a full hour of exercise, Mu Liang felt he couldn't bend for some time, luckily, it was time for lunch and he took the opportunity to take medicine for muscle pain, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to make the next rounds of exercises.
Mu Liang thought it would be a quiet lunch, but Gyasi had returned with an unexpected guest, which almost made Prince Mu eat less because of nervousness.
"Mu Liang, this is my grandfather, Duke Kayin," said Gyasi a little grudgingly. His grandfather had insisted on seeing the famous kingdom-destroying groom and more beautiful than the nine-tailed foxes on planet X89.
Kayin was introduced in this way, because his second son was already Duke Azikiwe, so much so that the name of the Duchy of Kayin is called the Duchy of Roses and he is the Duke of Roses.
Kayin was an emperor for a longer time than normal by law, because of the many wars that the Zergs Diablos engaged with other races in the age of expansion. Which led to the death of most of the princes and princesses, leaving only Ehione and Akin, so Gyasi only has two cousins, Chewe and the duke's daughter, Niara Azikiwe.
Already Ehione was emperor, he was a more diplomatic person and his reign was to consolidate the entire territory of the Zergs Diablos promoting the economic and social growth of his subjects. Therefore, all of Ehione's children are alive and healthy.
With all this there was also a growth in scientific development and exploration of other uninhabitable places still in space, the new reign with Ade is focusing on the investment of new technologies and on assistentialist diplomacy helping other zerg races across the universe outside.
Fortunately, Akin Azikiwe was a person who didn't want to get involved in the problems of the former emperor, after all, it was two generations of conquests and wars, there was a lot to be organized and a huge mess left by the two other emperors.
Ehione and Akin aren't children of the same mother, taking into account that Ehione's mother died at a young age and Akin's mother was the last concubine to be taken by Kayin, unfortunately, Akin's mother died by noble schemes many years ago when Kayin was leading troops on another planet when Kayin's younger brother was a regent looking after Akin and Ehione.
A few years after Kayin returned to the throne, his younger brother also died in a mysterious way, some gossip points out that it was Kayin himself who killed his younger brother out of revenge against the concubine's death. However, there is no evidence and no one knows who actually killed Kayin's younger brother and his concubine.
That was also the reason why Ehione married Nehand who came from a neutral noble family and who had been politically stable for some years.
"It is a pleasure to meet you ..." Mu Liang hesitated a little without knowing how to address Kayin.
Should he call him an imperial grandfather or a duke?
"Prince Mu, just call me Kayin," the older zerg diablo said, smiling gently. The wrinkles close to his eyes seemed to make Kayin a gentle middle-aged gentleman, which was very misleading.
"I couldn't call it so casually, you are Gyasi's grandfather ..." Mu Liang said quickly. He who came from an education of respect for the elderly regardless of status could not be so casual with his future grandfather.
"So just call him a grandfather, as I do" Gyasi intervened quickly, he knew that the grandfather was stubborn and could make things difficult for Mu Liang just for that small point.
Kayin thought that the grandson was being very bold and a little tactless, he could see how blushed and a little embarrassed Mu Liang by Gyasi's attitude. Well, he couldn't expect much from Gyasi, who spent part of his life in the military barracks and had a little too direct sociability for a prince.
"Grandfather Kayin?" Mu Liang called softly, he felt embarrassed. Although Gyasi didn't understand this, as a person from an older culture, calling others a grandfather required intimacy, or respectful, or being part of the family.
"This is fine. I knew that the prince's health wasn't very good, so I wanted to see if I could do something to help "Kayin said a little sincere looking like a good and kind grandfather.
"Grandfather Kayin, I am much better. I am getting better every day, thanks to grandfather Kayin worrying about me. Grandfather Kayin can I ask a favor?"
"Is there anything I can do for Prince Mu? If there are any, I will feel more honored and useful here "Kayin said curiously. He didn't expect Prince Mu to be so humble and a little shy. From what he knew of the elves, he expected a lot of arrogance on the part of the prince.
Would Prince Mu reveal his ambition now? Or was he simply greedy for gold and favors?
"I would like grandfather Kayin to just call me Mu Liang or Liang, that would make me happier" Mu Liang kindly asked. He felt bad when he heard Kayin calling him a prince since he already called the other grandfather. So it seemed that Kayin wanted to keep his distance from him, which worried him.
It wasn't only the creation in an Ancient Era but also the question that Mu Liang's grandfather in the past life was very close to him, which made him become much kinder to people much older than him .
Kayin was surprised by Prince Mu's sweetness and he looked at his grandson Gyasi who seemed to look at Mu Liang as if he were seeing the most complex of Mecha mechanisms.
The grandson had previously complained about how prince Mu was tsun-tsun1 and how scary he was when he was angry, but the only thing Kayin could see was a humble and kind young elf.
In fact, Kayin, who knew Gyasi's personality, could only think that it was the fault of his grandson for making a kind and humble young man fierce when angry.
"This is not a favor, I am delighted to be able to call his name, Mu Liang" Kayin said seriously, holding Mu Liang's right hand and placing his left hand on his heart.
This is the formal greeting of the zergs, placing their left hand on their heart. Holding the hand was already for the people that they considered very important, either intimately or out of respect.
Mu Liang's face became even pinker, he was happy because one of Gyasi's people accepted him and was very kind to him. Now, he had a little hope that the groom's family wouldn't hate him.
Gyasi looked at his grandfather and his fiancé with a complex look, he was still amazed to see the well-behaved Mu Liang and the previous fierce grandfather being kind when until last night the young half-elf prince was arrogantly sending him to massage his delicate feet.
Gyasi couldn't understand this fiance anymore!
