~The next day after the Family Dinner.

I got ready to visit the barracks today. First step is that I need to increase my Strength, stamina, speed, agility and Endurance.

These are the most important stat a person needs and I'm in dire need for it. I mean what am I gonna be able to do with these stats?

That looks sad. Well, I need to work hard on myself starting today.

“My lord! Let's go to the barracks.” Sky said while knocking at the door.

“Yeah let's leave.”

We left for the barracks where I found soldiers training and sweating buckets.

Noble Army.

A private army under the command of a set noble. In this case Helstein’s battalion consisted of over 100 soldiers. Even though these numbers don't seem that much, they are trained men.
At the end of the day, a trained soldier is stronger than 10 farmers.

Compared to other estates or fiefs, Helstein duchy is one of Dave duchy. Even if problems of Monsters and bandits arrive that causes too much trouble, the royal army is deployed to help that estate. It loses the importance of the private army.

Most of the Nobles are highly dependent on these royal armies for their bandits or monster issues.Around 30 men were training at the field and the person who is instructing them.

Garfield Gray.

He was the personal instructor for Jacob before he left for the royal palace. When I reached close to him he noticed me and greeted me.

“What are you doing here Young lord?”
His voice was so rough and cracked that you could tell by just listening that he is a veteran in his field.

“Actually I'm here for training.”

“I'm sorry to inform you, Young lord as you can see, we were informed that due to your poor health, we should not be making you work do anything to difficult or heavy.”

“Who said that to you?”

“ It was The Duke himself.”

“~Sigh. Well if it the duke himself than we can't say anything about it. Then I will just train on my own.”

I was already dressed in my Training attire. I wasn't going back without doing some normal exercises.

Let's run this track field for now. Suddenly Sky said in my ears, Make sure to do Five rounds.

She was basically telling me to run for around 5 miles. But if she said so, I guess I need to do it then.

I just started to run on my own. First set was relatively easy even though it took me Almost 10 minutes to do so. But I kept on running. Second set took 12 minutes. Third 18 minutes, fourth 22 minutes and as I was about to give up on my last round, I felt as if my body was again being controlled by someone.

It was Sky doing, she kept pushing me to take a single step as it was becoming harder and harder for me. Cramps started to appear and then suddenly I found myself on Bed in my room.

“My lord, it seems you have awakened.”

“ How long have I been out?”

“Almost two hours my lord.”

“You demon.”

“My lord, it's time for Lady Aaria to depart.”

I see Aaria is now returning.

“Sky!”

Aria's pov.

She is standing in front of the main door. It seems like only Rose had come to see her off.

‘Well I thought so this was gonna happen. But still it's nice that at least someone is seeing her off’.

“My lady, I will be waiting for you. Okay be safe.”
“Hmm… Thank you Rose.”

‘Rose and I have become close friends in the last two days or so.

And when she was about to ride on the carriage someone spoke behind her.

“Lady! Are you in a hurry right now?” It was Hunter.

“N-No I didn't mean to leave without saying goodbye. I just heard you were sleeping so I didn't want to wake you up.” She hastily replied.

Well it is still 9 in the morning despite me being awake for 3 hours.

“ I see. Well if that is the case,” Hunter stepped forward, standing beside the carriage door, extended his hands so that she can climb on the carriage.

“My lady! Do you remember our promise?”

“Yeah.”

“ Also try to take good care of Ace.”

“ Okay “

“ And my Lady,.......”

He took a long pause before speaking again.

“You need to become stronger. You have to become stronger.”

Hunter said that so seriously that Aria understood what he meant.

Even if you are too naive you can understand one thing.

Weakness have no place in this world.

“ Hunter! I will be stronger than you. Just watch me.”

She closed the door as the carriage started to move.

Hunter stood there silently for a few seconds before collapsing on the ground.

He mumbled before blacking out.

“You didn't had to complete your promise now.”

“Young lord! What happened?” Rose, standing there confused and worried, asked when Sky arrived.

“Don't worry, his legs gave out. He will be fine if he rests for some time.”

“But how?”

“ Let's carry him inside”.

“ I will call guard wait for a minute.”Rose left to search for someone
