Iyas watched the training of the two with full concentration, occasionally substituting Bai Jin with herself, pondering how she should evade and counterattack when confronted with such attacks.

”Once recovered, it’s really straight into quite rigorous training.

Is he a demon?

Shouldn’t this be the time to take the recovering patient out to the street for some fun?”

A voice suddenly sounded beside her, and Iyas almost replied without hesitation:

”Don’t expect too much, Yang Yu has his ideas.

It seems to me that Yang Yu’s previous training methods were indeed too mild.

As for having fun...

According to Yang Yu, a balance of work and rest leads to a positive cycle.

It might not be time for a break yet...”

While talking, Iyas turned her eyes towards where the voice was coming from.

At some unknown time, Latis had stood beside her, also seriously observing the training, occasionally exclaiming ”Amazing,” growing more and more impressed with Yang Yu.

”La, Lady Latis, when did you arrive.” Iyas exclaimed in surprise.

”When I arrived is not important. Not noticing indicates your perception is still lacking. How about the matter from yesterday?”

”What do you mean? What are you here for today?”

Facing Iyas’s questioning, Latis smiled: ”Just what I mentioned yesterday, came to complain a little.”

Once the two took a break, Latis proactively greeted Yang Yu, then launched into a detailed account of the troubles she had been facing recently.

Because she recommended Yang Yu, she was deemed one of the plotters.

Despite doing nothing and being part of the Main War Faction, she somehow ended up as one of the so-called key players.

Not knowing who was secretly pushing this narrative, she was inadvertently labeled as part of the Peace Faction.

Rumor has it that she’s the most steadfast in the Peace Faction, collaborating with Yang Yu to orchestrate all this.

The misunderstanding was massive.

This led her father to pile on her a bunch of tasks.

Emperor Luo Hui has been quite exhausted recently, even considering abdication, probably feeling pressures from all sides.

Not only Latis, but her two elder brothers were also given heavy tasks.

Her father has begun accelerating the plan to cultivate successors.

Emperor Luo Hui had always believed that no one other than the Eldest Prince could become king, but now he believes the throne must be inherited by someone capable.

After all, given what happened before...

Emperor Luo Hui often thought that if he were wiser, he could have avoided such a tragedy by not listening to slander and patiently investigating the situation.

Latis continued her talk, effortlessly familiar while recounting recent events.

Yang Yu shrugged helplessly, ”There’s no need for you to ingratiate yourself like this, don’t expect that I’ll really work here; there are still many things I need to do.”

Latis opened her folded fan to cover her mouth, ”Not entirely ingratiating, just normal chit-chat among friends, I originally thought you’d be interested.

With the future king, it’s good to make greetings in advance so that your needs can be met.

I can introduce you to my two brothers.

You are still very young.

This year, how about trying to challenge the Dragon God Conference? It’s timely as there are a few invitations that haven’t been sent out.”

Yang Yu decisively rejected Latis’s kind offer:

”I heard there’s an external selection for the Dragon God Conference, I need to go gather experience.

If there’s nothing else... let’s go inside and rest for a bit!

We still have to train, Chilom’s butler and maids will certainly take good care of you.”

”You’re as straightforward as ever.

Even with royalty, quite blunt.

I won’t go in and sit.

Watching your combat is interesting, perhaps I can even learn something.”

”Suit yourself.”

After saying this, Yang Yu turned to call out to Iyas, telling her to prepare as it was now her turn.

Iyas dared not be negligent, hurriedly following behind Yang Yu.

Before the training started, a butler stepped out from the villa and said a few words to Yang Yu.

With Yang Yu’s permission, the butler used magic power to open the door.

A long carriage slowly drove into Chilom’s villa.

A lovely young lady, wearing a pristine white dress, stepped down from the carriage.

Upon seeing Yang Yu, she beamed brightly with a bashful demeanor, taking small steps towards Yang Yu, bowing deeply and extending a basket in hand, she said:

”You... Hello, I’m very pleased to meet again.

Perhaps you don’t remember me...

Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Jin. Eden, the second daughter of General Walshi.

If you don’t mind... please have a taste.”

Yang Yu was stunned for a moment, hesitantly took the basket from Jin’s hands, uncovered the cloth to see all sorts of adorable pastries inside.

”Wouldn’t this have been sent by General Walshi specially?”

Miss Jin’s face instantly turned red, bowed her head, grasped her dress hem, seeming to hesitate over something.

Yang Yu returned the basket in hand, saying:

”If it’s General Walshi who sent you, I’d have to refuse.”

Hearing Yang Yu about to return the gift, Jin panicked immediately, saying:

”It’s... It’s handmade by myself, and coming over here is completely of my own will.”

Yang Yu asked bluntly, ”Why?”

”This... Was... Jin became hesitant to speak, rubbing her palms, not knowing where to start, ”I’ve heard about Yang Yu from many places.

Truly an outstanding figure, someone like you naturally draws admiration.

Just... Well...

It’s so embarrassing, and I find it hard to speak.”

Jin raised a hand to cover her burning cheeks, her face now redder than a tomato.

”I don’t dare to expect much.

If... If... it tastes good, could you invite me to dance at tomorrow’s banquet?

Just one dance will do...

For today, that’s all, if you find it tasty... I’ll make more for you next time.”

With that said, Jin, like a shy little kitten, quickly slipped into the carriage, leaving without turning back.

Came quickly, left quickly.

Latis’s eyes glinted with amusement behind the fan, saying:

”You’ve really become quite popular.

But you should be careful, lest someone gets jealous.”

Latis glanced at Bai Jin and Yang Yu, observing their reactions to such a sudden event.

First Bai Jin, whose reaction was relatively normal, with a hint of anxiety and slight unease.

As for Yang Yu... his reaction was somewhat surprising to Latis.

Yang Yu first scratched his cheek, then showed an embarrassed smile, seemingly not expecting such an event to occur.

Finally, he sat cross-legged, picked up a cookie and examined it for a while, opened the bag, took a cookie and tasted it, lightly commenting ”Delicious”.
