They all standing then merge with their each teams
"Team one of both the knight and magician, you will be the first turn to train with me in the forest" *smiling creepily*
*cold sweat* "Yes" *loud and firm*
*glare* "Prepare yourself! We'll start our training tomorrow. DON'T BE LATE!" *menacing*
"Yes, we won't be late!" *loud and firm*
"And for team twos, don't be happy just yet! I'll wait you on the next two days in the forest, don't you dare to make me wait, you all won't be able to take the consequence" *menacing*

"Yes" *loud and firm*
"Alright, you all can dismiss" *waving his hand*
"All hail for His Excellency Duke Amethyst" *they said it together*
They're bowing then leaving and the hall room empty shortly. Verduny turning around, there are Shamus, Dalton and Edward waiting for his order behind him.
"Edward, select the best 300 from the ordinary soldiers right now"
"As you wish my Lord" *bows and leaving*
"Shamus, Dalton" *looking at them*
"We're at your service, My Lord" *kneeling*
"You two will be their instructors in their training. Dalton use this technique to train them."
Verduny take out a book and give it to Dalton
*receive the book* "As your command, my Lord"
The technique Verduny gave to Dalton are his own creations. This techniques are a technique that permit the user to train both their magic and martial arts.
In my previous life, there are enemy who can do both magic and martial arts like myself. At first, I thought it was because they're a geniuses like me. But there's a lot of them. Then I found out, they have a secret technique to trains both of their magic and martial arts.
I made my own technique base on technique. Although my technique based on that technique, my technique are very different from that technique. Even if in the future those people appear with their technique, people will think they were the ones that copying my technique instead. It's because people usually think the originals are the betters than the fake ones.
"Shamus, you'll teach them all the basic and intermediate spells. The training methods is up to you. In the next three weeks, I want this 300 soldiers are able to use both of martial arts and magic. Edwards will tell you the details later. You can dismiss now"
"Yes, my Lord" *bow and leaving*
Edward come back to Verduny
*bows* "My Lord, I already select them. There will someone send their list in your study room"
"Good, follow me to the study room"
"Yes, my Lord"
On the way to study room
"Edward, this 300 soldiers will be trained under Shamus and Dalton supervisor. I'll leave the details to you" *glance*
"Yes my Lord"
*paused for a moment* "Have you found a female guard for Lydia?"
"Yes, I assume they'll arrive here at dusk or tomorrow morning"
*frown* "What took them that long? We're run out of time."
"It's because a female knights are really rare. But thanks to my effort, I their base nearby in Moiselle Country. I need to running around to find this information." *grumbles*
*smirk* "I didn't though you have running around already. I predict that yesterday, but it happens more earlier than I though" *mocking*
*irritated* "My Lord, could you be so kind not to repeating your word like that?" *force smile*
"Am I repeating my word? Sorry then" *smirk*
*annoyed* "Thank you for your understanding" *irritated*
They have arrived in the study room
"Welcome my Lord, I have been waiting for you" *running toward Verduny*
*hug*
The four assistant shocked and turn around. Meanwhile Edward sneak out from the room
*stroke Lydia head* "Are you finish your works?"
"Yes! I even finish the remaining documents in your desk" *smile brightly*
*happy* "Do you want anything as your reward?"
*whisper* "Then my Lord should come to rest in our room tonight" *whisper*
*smile* "I'll come tonight."
*release the hug and look at Verduny* "Really?"
*quickly answer* "Certainly!"
*smile* "Then I should prepare the room, excuse me my Lord" *leaving*
"WAIT!" *grab Lydia hand*
*turn around and smile* "Yes, my Lord?" *the eyes for hoping something*
"Can you call Sebastian to come here?"
*bitter smile* "Yes" *disappointed*
Verduny smiling then pulling Lydia hand
*kiss Lydia forehead*
*whisper* "Wait me tonight" *release Lydia hand*
Lydia blush and run away because of embarrassment. Verduny walk forward to his desk.
*sit down* "Then" *looking at the four asisstants*
The 4 assistant immediately kneeling down in front of Verduny desk
"We're at your service, Your Excellency" *said it together*
*looking at them* "The four of..."
BRAK!
*Edward come in without knocking* "It's time for your meals, my Lord!"
The servants serve Verduny's meals
*smile* "You should eat your meals, my Lord!" *menacing*
*annoyed* "I can do that later"
*not budging* "You. Should. Eat. My. Lord!" *smile creepily*
*irritated* "Yes, Yes"
Verduny eat his meals under Edward observations
A few times later
Verduny finish his meals
*smile* "Thank you for finishing your meals, my Lord" *glance at the servants*
The servants take the plates, bowing then leaving
*sigh* "I'll start then. One of you will follow me to haunted forest tomorrow. The rest of you, assist my wife in the manor."
"Yes, Your Excellency" *they said it together*
*knock knock knock*
Edward going to the door and open it
"My Lord, Sebastian are here"
"Come in"
*salute* "Please forgive my rudeness to make you wait, my Lord"
"It's fine, what took you so long?"
*sigh* "We have a bit of troubles buying a few items in the market earlier"
*paused for a moment* "I think I know someone who might be the mastermind. I'll take care of him after the war. Edward remind me later" *creepy smile*
*writing* "Yes"
"My Lord, Sir Jared send a word that he want to named his teams as Stardust Research Teams."
*silent* "... Let them do whatever they want. Just remind them to finish their works."
"Yes, my Lord"
"Sebastian, prepare a room for this four people." *pointing at the four assistant* "Then come back here, immediately!"
"Yes, my Lord" *salute*
Sebastian and the four of them leave the room
"My Lord, who do you mean earlier?" *curious*
*smirk* "Of course it's the Marquis of house Chrysoberyl."
*confused* "Why did he want to troubling us? We have never meet him before"
"It's simple. He's one of the first prince alliances. This must be his order. It seems we'll have a hard time in market in the future" *smiling creepily*
*still confused* "What do you mean, my Lord?"
*glance at Edward* "In this Empire, there's a few high ranking nobles that dominating a particular interests. Like us Amethyst Dukedom, we are dominating magicians and magic items in the Empire. Do you know most of magician in the Empire are staying in our Dukedom?"
*shocked* "Really?" *disbelieved*
*confused* "You don't know? You've lived here for years already and you didn't realize it?" *dumbfounded*
*snap* *irritated* "I know we have a lots of magicians in our Dukedom, but I don't know that most of the magicians in the Empire are here" *force smile*
*glance* *sigh* "That's why you still don't have a wife right now, you're too ignorant. You should change yourself if you want to find yourself a wife" *grumbles*
Edward though 'Look who's talking right know. I don't want to heard that words from you!'
*force smile* "Then, are the Marquis dominating something, my Lord?" *still irritated*
"Yeah. The Marquis Chrysoberyl's territory are full with merchants. He's dominating the merchants in the Empire. I heard he even have his own commerce teams." *indifferently*
*knock knock knock*
Edward going to the door and open it
"My Lord, Sebastian are here"
"Come in"
*bows* "My Lord, I already finish my work"
"Good job, Sebastian. Then we should discuss our main topic now!"290Please respect copyright.PENANAtYScjKxIqT
