Chapter 593

Three hours after the Emperor entered the training room.

The chief attendant, who had been sitting quietly outside, sprang to his feet at the sound of the door opening. The first to emerge was Yuder Aile, looking no different than when he had entered.

"Is the training session over?"

"Yes, it's finished."

"And what of the Count?"

"He is resting inside. He expressed a desire to leave quietly without any escort, so I'm taking my leave first."

"I see. How did the training go?"

While the Emperor was of concern, the chief attendant was equally curious about how the initial training session had gone. But the training room was so soundproofed that one couldn't even guess what had transpired inside.

Hearing the chief attendant's heartfelt question, Yuder answered obediently.

"It went exceptionally well. To be honest, I thought it might be impossible to complete everything in three hours. I now realize I worried too much."

"Is that so!"

A relieved smile brightened the chief attendant's face, and his eyes, usually stern, moistened slightly. However, he quickly reined in his emotions and bowed deeply.

"You've worked hard."

"Yes, let's meet again at the same time tomorrow."

Exchanging farewells, Yuder walked quietly down the corridor and disappeared from view. Eagerly entering the training room, the chief attendant saw the Emperor lying listlessly among the scattered debris on the floor. His eyes widened in surprise.

"My Lord, why are you lying there?"

He had watched over the Emperor since he was a first-born prince toddling around, but he had never seen him so carelessly sprawled on the floor. Unlike his energetic brother, the Emperor had always been more of a composed and elegant type, preferring to sit and read.

"Ah, Yuliver."

The Emperor, a beat too slow, called out the chief attendant's name. He declined the help to rise and spoke listlessly.

"The floor is quite cool; it's not so bad. No one else is looking, so let me lie here for a moment."

"But what kind of training has exhausted you to this extent? Baron Aile mentioned it went very well."

"Did he say that?"

The Emperor chuckled lightly, a wisp of sweat-soaked hair falling across his forehead, making him look strangely unfamiliar.

"Yes, didn't he?"

"Rather than doing well, it was more like clinging to the edge of a cliff while a merciless beast prodded me. I barely hung on."

"Excuse me?"

A beast? A cliff? These were utterly baffling terms to the chief attendant. The Emperor muttered softly.

"I always thought that the harshest teacher I would ever encounter in my life was my mother, who personally taught me horseback riding... It seems the old saying 'there's always a sky above a mountain' holds true."

Three hours. In some respects, a very short time.

But in the three hours he had spent in the training room with Yuder, the Emperor felt as if time had stretched to almost five times its length.

During that time, Yuder had pushed the Emperor to his limits in every conceivable way. He had activated abilities in dozens of objects, hurled them out the window with the force of the wind so they wouldn't be seen by others, all while making the Emperor feel the limits of those activated powers. And that was just the beginning.

While simultaneously perceiving information from dozens of locations, Yuder recited spells to the Emperor. Waves of nausea washed over him, and his head throbbed as if it would split open. Yet he never blinked, giving the Emperor a series of commands.

"Do you really think they can be selective when they're recruiting on such a massive scale? I heard they wouldn't notice even if a pig joined, not to mention a human."

"Haha, that's amusing. Should I send my lowest stableman there? I wonder if they would recognize him."

"I should join the bet too."

"I'll add my share. It's the perfect opportunity to send in the dwarf clown I just hired."

"Hahaha."

"Duke Diarca, Your Grace. Would you care to join us?"

When someone boldly broke the silence, everyone momentarily paused. The man who had raised this significant topic was Baron Renbow, responsible for coordinating with the Crown Prince's healers.

Duke Diarca, who had been puffing away at his pipe, nonchalantly asked, "Doesn't sound like an entertaining topic. Is there a reason for bringing this up?"

"If you're just going to send some stable hand, it wouldn't be interesting, of course. But isn't this the perfect time to plant eyes and ears within the Cavalry?"

"You think I hadn't considered that when I heard about the recruitment, Renbow? Finding an Awakener suitable for such a long-term mission is quite challenging. You'd need someone you've known for at least five years to trust them with the task. Those guys have only been around for two years. It'd be less risky to wait for the new recruits and win them over."

"Of course, Your Grace the Duke would have thought much deeper than I have. But haven't you forgotten something? The healers you met recently are also Awakeners, ever ready to serve you."

At that, everyone fell silent. Duke Diarca removed the pipe from his lips and tapped out the ashes as he inquired, "Renbow, upon reflection, was this suggestion not yours but rather proposed by them first?"

"Haha, I won't deny it."

Sly foxes, thought Duke Diarca, his gaze fixed on Renbow but tinged with a cold interest.

After a brief pause, Duke Diarca slowly nodded his head.

"Fine. After meeting them before, my interest was piqued as well. Go ahead and proceed as you see fit."
