Chapter 995: Intermission – Day in the life of *Cecilia* (1)
“Is that all that you have!”
This was the shouting that came from behind Cecilia as she participated in the royal guards’ regular training.
It was just that she was much more sluggish compared to normal.
Even though she tried her best, it seemed like there was something that made her move much more sluggish than usual.
So Klein had no choice but to push her even though she should technically be above him as one of the queens.
Though he never really had this problem before since she had always been able to keep up with them when they trained. In fact, she was one of the top performers in their training, which was why he had never worried about her before.
But today…
It seemed like there was something that was making her move much more slowly than usual.
At the same time, it seemed like she was covering up much more than usual.
When the run was finally over, Klein gave everyone some time to rest as he talked to Cecilia alone.
Looking at how much she covered herself up, he couldn’t help asking, “Is something wrong? Do you have a cold? Is that why you’re covering yourself up so much?”
Cecilia didn’t say anything in response to this which made Klein knit his brows, but then he said, “If you’re sick, then you should just take the rest of the day off.”
The way that he said this wasn’t as if he was suggesting it, but rather it was almost as if he was ordering her to go since it was clear that she wasn’t able to keep up. If she were to stay, all that would happen is that she would be a disturbance to the others.
So it was better if she let right now instead of staying to train with them.
But in the end, Cecilia said, “I’m fine.”
Klein raised a brow to show that he was surprised that she was so insistent even though he gave an order, but he didn’t get to say anything else.
That was because there was someone who suddenly appeared that created a commotion.
Hearing this commotion, the two of them turned to see that the royal guards were all gathered around even though they should have been on break.
Looking past the crowd, they saw the person that caused this commotion.
“Your majesty!” Klein said when he saw this person.
Cecilia’s only reaction was a bitter smile, but that bitterness in her smile quickly disappeared as she came over with Klein.
After coming over, Klein asked, “Your majesty, why are you here?”
I just calmly said with a smile, “I’m here for some last minute inspections before the invasion. I hope that you will show me that you are all prepared for what is about to come.”
A serious look immediately appeared on Klein’s face when he heard this before he gave a simple nod and turned to the royal guards.
All of them immediately stood at attention upon seeing this, including Cecilia.
Though she did sneak a peek at me as she walked by.
I just looked back at her with a smile, but I could see the trace of fear that was in her eyes.
Of course, I didn’t do anything while she was still like this.
There were plenty of other opportunities.
After getting them all to stand at attention, Klein suddenly said, “Let’s begin our drills!”
At that, all of the royal guards suddenly picked up their weapons and lined up in front of a row of dummies.
The weapons that they picked up were all strange looking weapons.
They weren’t the normal swords and lances that one might expect, rather they were strange weapons that had a round blunt head at the end.
They weren’t purple, but rather they were carved out of wood.
These were practice dildo bats that had been made by the dwarves that were similar to the real dildo bats that I gave them, but the difference was that they didn’t have the same destructiveness as the real dildo bats.
That was the reason they were used for practice.
After all, the real dildo bats had the penetrating effect which would ruin the dummies that they trained with.
So they had no choice but to get these wooden practice dildo bats made.
With these wooden practice dildo bats, they were able to get a better grasp of how to swing them. It seemed like they had come far from when they just swung the bats around like swords.
They actually looked like they knew how to use these dildo bats…though it was still strange seeing a bunch of knights wielding dildo bats even if they did know how to use them.
However, this wasn’t what I was actually here for.
After watching them swing those bats at the dummies for a bit, I said, “It seems like you’ve learned how to use the weapons that I’ve given you.”
Klein said with an affirmative nod, “We worked hard to master the weapons that you gave us…” Then shaking his head, he said, “Though it will still take some time to use them properly as a group.”
After saying this, he turned back to the royal guards and was about to give another order, but he didn’t get to give that order in the end.
“I want to see them spar with each other for a bit.” I suddenly spoke.
Klein was caught off guard hearing this and he slowly turned back to look at me as if he was trying to figure out what I was planning, but it didn’t seem like he was able to see through me as he looked at me with a confused look.
After a while, he said, “Why?”
I just calmly said, “I want to see how well they’ve adapted with the dildo bats and the best way is to test it on a human, right?”
Klein narrowed his eyes to look at me as if he was trying to see through me again, but I just calmly looked back at him with a smile on my face.
In the end, he had no choice but to follow this suggestion.
While he was giving his orders, I turned to look at Cecilia with a smile on my face.
