Caesar opened the carriage window and commanded the driver to head back to his residence. In the back of the carriage, Caesar was thinking about other training methods to use for his Knight"s.

The carriage soon arrived at the manor, Caesar jumped off the carriage and thanked the driver before heading inside. He was not very hungry so he headed straight for his room and started ill.u.s.trating his next creation. "I need something that boosts our defenses" Caesar whispered to himself while tapping an ink pen on his chin.

The night pa.s.sed slowly, only the sound of scribbling could be heard from Caesar"s room. After a few hours pa.s.sed Caesar put the ink pen down and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Yawn"

Caesar yawned loudly and walked to his bed, "sigh, I have a lot to do tomorrow" He muttered as he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The sun soon invaded Caesar"s room and woke him up, he blinked his eyes a few times and sat up. He stretched his limbs and picked out the same outfit he wore yesterday.

Caesar exited his room and headed for the dining room, Sebastian was already there waiting for him with the food already made "up early again? I prepared for you this time though" Sebastian let out a chuckle as he saw Caesar enter the dining room.

"Thank you, Sebastian, for your as thoughtful as ever," Caesar said as he sat in one of the chairs and began eating. "I"m going to head towards the forest and then to the training grounds today, I"m not sure when I"ll be back"

"I see, be careful. The others are quite worried about you, they haven"t seen you in two days especially that Elizabeth la.s.s"

"Apologize to them on my behalf, time is of the essence at the moment. I don"t have the luxury to be carefree… Speaking of which how is the training of the three?"

"I"m glad you asked, the three are progressing quite swiftly, Arwin already knows how to calculate simple numbers"

"That"s a relief, My father should have my business license when he comes back tonight. We can set the foundation for our future business after the battle" Caesar smiled

"Oh? Are you so confident that we will make it out alive, not many people know of the upcoming dangers bout Lord Crowley has briefed me about it"

"Don"t worry Sebastian, I am 100% confident I can defeat their meager 15000 troops. Besides, once my personal Knight"s are done training each and every one of them will become a killing machine"

"I have faith in you young master"

Caesar smiled and put on his coat, he walked out of the door and headed towards the forest. He didn"t want to ride in a carriage this time… Caesar started running towards the forest, in his hands was a large number of thick ropes.

Caesar pa.s.sed house after house and soon reached the outer walls. He crouched down and jumped over the walls. After jumping over the walls Caesar walked deep within the forest while contemplating "I need a large number of strong monsters"

"Step"

"Step"

Caesar walked deep into the forest, he could sense creatures with a decent amount of mana all around him but they were not enough. He wanted to find a nest of strong creatures… After walking for about 10 more minutes Caesar finally sensed a large amount of mana in one place. Caesar didn"t hesitate and instantly started rushing towards it.

He jumped from tree to tree until finally, he laid eyes on the source of mana he felt, large looking bears that had red fur were all over the place. "These guys are about three times as big as the bears from earth," Caesar thought inwardly as he stroked his chin.

"Plop"

Caesar jumped off the tree and alerted all of the red bears in the area… They all turned their heads and looked at Caesar, they were confused for a second before that confusion turned in to rage that something was trespa.s.sing on their territory.

"Growl"

The bears started showing their teeth and growling at Caesar, seeing this he smiled and said "don"t be too mad now, I"m just here to play" before he could finish his words all of the beasts started charging at him.

"So impulsive" Caesar muttered as charged at the bears head on, he reached the first bear in a manner of seconds… the bear could not even react before Caesar"s knee already reached its abdomen and blasted it away.

"CRASH"

The bear"s body was blown away and broke three trees consecutively before the body finally fell. The other bears all looked at each other with fear in their eyes but it was too late. Caesar arrived at each and every one of the bears kicking them away to where the other one was.

About 10 minutes later there was a huge pile of unconscious bears "hahaha" Caesar laughed joyfully as he started tying them all up with the ropes he brought, after tying them up in a beautiful bundle he started pulling them back to the kingdom.

"Screeech"

"This bundle of bears is quite heavy" Caesar couldn"t help but mutter as he was pulling all of them to the kingdom, sweat trickled down his face. His image could almost make someone pity him until they looked at the huge group of bears he was pulling around.

Caesar finally made it to the city gates and approached the checkpoint… The guards seeing Caesar showed alertness and roared.

"Halt!"

Caesar looked up at the guard and said "huuh?" while releasing a large amount of killing intent… The guard started sweating profusely "n-nevermind, have a wonderful day" The guard ran back to his checkpoint with wobbly legs.

"Tsk, these guards at the front gate need more training" Caesar could not help but mutter after pa.s.sing the guard… The guard that he pa.s.sed bore endless resentment "who the h.e.l.l would stop the marshall of the kingdom that was carrying a bundle of f.u.c.king d-cla.s.s flame bears"

But the guard could not tell anyone his frustrations and had to hold them in… Caesar walked through the streets and headed towards the training grounds.

"Oh, my is that the beautiful marshall. What is he carrying?"

"Hehe, should I confess? Do you think he will accept"

"Hmmm, girl your out of league only someone like me can handle that man"

"Wait, are those flame bears?"

"What the h.e.l.l?"

Caesar didn"t mind the commotion he caused and kept pulling the bundle to the training grounds… about thirty minutes later he finally reached the training grounds. The sound of fur being pulled out the ground echoed throughout the area.

The knights that were waiting for their marshall"s carriage all stood stunned at the sigh. "Why is our marshall sweaty? This is unheard of!" The knights were all bickering to each other before they finally saw what he was pulling.

"What the h.e.l.l?"

"Who just carried a huge bundle of flame bears"

"I didn"t want to believe it… but our marshall is truly a madman isn"t he!"

Caesar finally let go of the ropes and roared towards the knights "LINE UP!" The knights instantly started scrambling to line up in front of Caesar, once they lined up Caesar paced in front of them.

"I spent a lot of effort preparing for today"s training. I noticed that our training while effective does not give you guys the "fighting to the death" feeling that you are going to have in the upcoming battle" After Caesar"s words a captain stepped forward.

"U-uhm marshal, I think our normal training is as close to death"s door as we can get… I"m pretty sure Ronny already died, we haven"t heard from him in a few days" The knight said while trembling.

"SILENCE, your training as of late could be considered lenient," Caesar said sternly

The knight"s wanted to rebuke his words but they didn"t dare, they could just cry inside and await the Marshalls next orders.

"From now on each group will take turns battling these bears with the heavy wooden swords and with armor on. If you are about to die I may or may not come and save you so fight with your lives on the line!"

"Yes, Marshall!"

The bears that were tied up were started to wake up, Caesar walked over to the tied up bears and started untying them. "Perfect timing, group 1 please prepare for battle" the members of group 1 looked as though they swallowed a fly as they rushed to get the "dread swords" they called them. Once they got the heavy swords and put on their armor they walked in front of the now untied beasts.

"Oh, I forgot to mention they have not eaten for a while so they should be pretty hungry," Caesar said with a sly smile. The bears were looking at the men of group 1 with stars in their eyes and s...o...b..r flowing down their mouth.

The captain on group 1 roared out "D-do not fret, we have more number than them" the knights slowly started gaining more morale with the roar from the captain. They all got in fighting positions and prepared for the bear"s onslaught.

The hungry bears started walking towards the knights, their slow walk turned into a full out charge as they went towards the knights.

"BRACE FOR IMPACT" Yelled the captain of group 1

The knights nodded with solemn looks and brought up their shields.

"CRASH"

The bears collided with the front lines of the knights and blasted them away… Dread filled the knight"s faces as the captain roared "DO NOT RELENT" The knight slowly got back up and faced the bears. A few knights were slashed and a few were bitten on the body but they managed to defend against the bears without losing their lives.

*clap*

That is good for now, Caesar said as he walked in front of the bears. Seeing Caesar the bears all showed fear in their eyes as they started cowering. The knight"s of group 1 started gasping for breath, If Caesar had not stop the fight then the bears would have broken their front lines and few of them probably would not be here.

Caesar roared and said "GROUP 2, FRONT AND CENTER" The knight"s of group two rushed to the center and the same events occurred to them that happened to group 1.

2 hours later all 5 groups were on the ground out of breath with minor injuries. Caesar smiled and said "great job, we managed to have no fatalities... Its time for lunch" Caesar said as he snapped his fingers and large pots of stew were brought in to the middle of the training grounds.

The knight"s all looked at the stew with dread "I don"t want to eat that lava" they all thought inwardly but once they saw Caesar"s smile they sucked it up and started eating anyway. Once the knights were done Ceasar said: "we need to digest the food now don"t we?"

As the knight"s started running, Caesar tied up all of the flame bears again and placed them in a cage. He gave them some of the same stew that the knights ate "I wonder what will happen if I increase the bear"s strength as well" Caesar could not help but think to himself with glee.

--1 week pa.s.sed like this--

Caesar clapped, "that"s enough for today men. I need to capture some stronger beasts" Caesar said as he looked at the unconscious beasts and the laughing knight"s

"Do not get complacent, I will gather stronger beasts tomorrow morning!" At Caesar"s words, the knight"s all stopped laughing and dread showed in their eyes again.

Caesar walked to his carriage and pulled out a finished ill.u.s.tration… "I wonder how crazy Danny will go for this one hehe"
