Chapter 524

The energy of four distinct colors seemed to be alive, swirling around in unique patterns. The sight was both terrifying and mystical.

"Does it... hurt?"

"No, I'm perfectly fine. But I must admit, I feel a bit embarrassed revealing myself like this in front of Your Majesty the Empress."

The Empress's unease quickly dissipated, thanks to Kishiar's words, which somehow seemed even more awkward than when he had strolled barefoot around Tainu's party. Nonetheless, the overwhelming sensation she felt from simply watching remained.

"Does Baron Aile know which color represents which energy?"

"Of course."

Yuder proceeded to explain the colors and locations of each energy, saving the red energy that cautiously moved along his hand for last.

"And this is the energy of the Awakener. While the energy in most people is usually located below the abdomen, Commander's energy moves in a form that not only fills the vessel but also envelops and protects the surrounding force. This differentiates him from other Awakeners."

"I see. The vessel..."

The Empress's gaze shifted towards the massive conglomerate of energy that seemed lodged at his core. Long-standing emotions were revealed in her eyes as she looked at the red energy that solidly enveloped and supported the turbulent vortex. Seeing the actual entity causing suffering and leading her husband, the Emperor, towards death did nothing to uplift her mood.

Yuder ignored her expression and continued to explain his earlier attempts. The Empress's expression returned to normal upon hearing that he had successfully drawn his energy into Kishiar's body using his abilities.

"Truly remarkable."

"Then I shall conclude the demonstration here."

The light faded from Yuder's hand, and everything vanished as if it had been an illusion. Kishiar sat up and smiled.

"It feels like I've grown more accustomed to controlling it over time. The strain on my end also seems to have lessened. Are you alright?"

"I am fine, fortunately."

"You might be fine, but it must have drained you. Here, have something to eat."

Kishiar casually handed Yuder a bite-sized snack. Coincidentally, it was the last one left. Yuder hesitated momentarily, but the Empress, still lost in the lingering awe of what she had just seen, was not watching them.

"..."

"Don't worry. It's very delicious with the chocolate. You haven't eaten at all while talking, have you? Go ahead."

Just as Yuder succumbed to Kishiar's tempting whisper and put the snack in his mouth, the Empress abruptly looked up. After an awkward exchange of glances in silence, she finally spoke.

"You don't have to sneak food. I brought it for both of you to share."

"Sneak? I openly offered it out of concern for my assistant, who seemed drained."

Kishiar feigned ignorance effortlessly.

"In that case, will one suffice? Would you like to fetch the next plate for you yourself?"

Since the maids who usually perform such duties were outside while they were demonstrating their abilities, only the three of them were left in the reception room. Kishiar rose gracefully from his seat, wearing a sly smile.

"Of all the commands I have received from Her Majesty today, this is the one I was hoping least to hear."

The weight in his seemingly emotionless voice felt prophetic.

It was stifling, the sense of something unspeakable contained within his words, something she could not begin to guess at.

Staring into his eyes, dark as the depths, the Empress found herself speechless for a long while.

"I've brought new refreshments, and the tea has been freshly brewed. The chief maid is asking if she may enter now," said Kishiar as he returned, pushing a small cart adorned with silver. Only then did the Empress regain her composure. Instead of answering whether the maid could come in, she quietly observed the two men seated before her.

"Your Grace."

"Yes."

"You've brought a most remarkable assistant."

"Is that suddenly a revelation?"

Despite the cryptic conversation they'd just had, Kishiar only chuckled casually. The Empress gave a small, relieved smile. Strangely, she felt more at ease.

"Before I go, I'd like to share some news that came through Hernes family intelligence network. While it may not concern His Majesty directly, it could be relevant to the Cavalry, so it may be of use."
