"As fruitless as it was to face that wolf without my energy, I can say that it was a good way to test my physical fitness."
Evans looked at his defined body in front of the mirror, he stopped when he saw the three cracks on his right hand.
"Damn duchess, I'm sure you don't want me to go to the academy; but if you attack me, I won't stand by and watch."
Evans put on the white glove, a beige sweater and gray pants. He left his room and walked through the hallways that were now almost always clear. The few servants who had not resigned were dedicated only to their assigned tasks. For Evans, there couldn't be a better environment.
He walked until he reached the back of the garden and began training.
Leap! Leap!
Evans leaped through the trees and propelled himself forward to face the imaginary warrior.
The swords met and Evans tilted his sword so that the sword of the imaginary warrior slid down, before the opening that Evans caused...
Court!
Evans had found several ways to take down the imaginary fourth rank warrior. Since facing the wolf, Evans became accustomed to using every bit of his mana and energy to the maximum, just as he adapted more and more to his new body, making it perform to the fullest extent of its current capabilities.
-Young Sir.
Evans was moving through the trees when Butler Fred called out to him.
Evans opened his eyes and walked towards Fred, without making any useless movements.
-Butler, is something wrong? -Evans asked as he took a towel out of his ring to wipe the sweat from his face.
"Here, young man, Sir, it's a gift from your father," the butler said respectfully as he handed a small box with a storage ring to Evans.
Upon opening the box, Evans was a little surprised to see content that would easily have a great value on the market. 240 physical strengthening elixirs; 240 mana elixirs; all high level elixirs; In addition, there were also 50,000 gold coins.
-This is your reward for exalting the Qualty name. That's his father's message. -Indicated the butler.
Evans placed the ring on one of the fingers of his left hand and then said:
-Tell my father that I only did my duty; Likewise, I am grateful.
-As you wish, young sir. -The butler responded and then left.
"That butler doesn't look like a simple servant."
Evans did not stop observing the butler and the surroundings, until the butler disappeared from his sight.
"I only need a few months, I will have consolidated the second circle and will be ready to form my third mana circle, I hope I have the time to achieve it"
Two months later.
With labored breathing; Evans was making three percent of his energy circulate through his body, the water in the bathtub had been partially dyed red; But Evans ignored the pain, he had already dedicated two weeks to the gradual circulation of his energy, his body was in the best condition, so he did not want to waste the opportunity.
When he opens his eyes, he opens the drain and all the water flows until it disappears. He closes the drain again, and turns on the water tap.
"I am ready to reach the third circle, but there is too much movement in the duchy"
Evans came out of the bathroom, put on some sleep clothes, and then went to bed.
"die"
"burn it"
The fire of a bonfire and its crackling drown out the murmurs, a human figure is consumed by the fire, but remains motionless; the smell of burnt flesh spreads. The clamor of an unknown crowd that celebrates.
A feeling grows and the thought flows: I...
Evans opens his eyes, he was sweating, his face was pale, the bed was bloody with the blood that came from Evans' right hand. But, again he couldn't remember, he just felt like he had lost something, and every time he had that feeling of loss his current body suffered.
When Ana arrived at the room she was surprised to see the blood, but when she saw the serene expression on Evans' face who was only looking out the window, she preferred not to say anything.
Evans bathed and then put on an elegant ivory shirt, white pants and white shoes. Since it was Sunday, he usually rested and spent time with Aria.
Evans headed towards a hallway near the front of the mansion and could see the duchess getting into a carriage with her children.
The duchess looked at him and he nodded, without showing any reaction the duchess got into her carriage and shortly after left, protected by more than a dozen guards.
"Apparently the Duchess is going to act, I think it would be stranger if she did nothing, her ambition and her evil have no limits. I will not be able to seclude myself in peace, I feel that something very dangerous is about to happen"
The duchess along with her children were in a carriage towards the Marquisate Lerant. but, after three days the carriage stopped.
A warrior reported from outside:
-Honorable Duchess. Your brother Eldan Lerant is here.
-Tell Mr. Lerant to come closer. -The Duchess ordered
-As you order, Duchess. -Said the warrior.
A few minutes later a tall, slender man with short hair wearing the marquisate's uniform entered the carriage and sat down opposite the duchess.
-Sister; My father sent it to you. What you are going to do is very dangerous. I hope you know what you're doing. -Eldan stated at the moment he gave his sister a violet letter with the seal of the marquisate.
When she opened the letter, the first thing the duchess saw was a silver necklace with a light blue crystal pendant.
