It was unexpected, truly.
From the day Rex appointed his three future generals, he was determined to make them stronger.
But his expectations lay highest on Gelmar or maybe Dindora.
Both of them were older, more experienced, and simply more determined. People with their kind of past either broke or ascended to the highest, and Rex knew they would ascend. Having him support them basically guarantees that.
Either way, those two were the kind who would soar highest on the path of power.
Rex was certain of it.
After all, he was living proof of that belief.
In comparison, Linthia couldn't quite match them in terms of determination.
Had the other candidates not been so bad, she wouldn't even be chosen as one of the three future generals of the Clarentium Empire. Rex's expectation of her was the weakest—though he was hopeful since her bloodline prospect was quite good.
Rex never thought she would be anything spectacular, at least not in the near future.
