Kairos went up and entered the room where Isabel and Fern were. Isabel said, "Why are you so late?"
Kairos replied, "I was training, that's why I am very late."
Fern said, "If you were training, why didn't you take me with you to train me? You promised me that."
Kairos was silent and said to himself, "This boy pleases me a lot. Few words, many actions, brave, protective of his honor. I like him very much. I wish he could go with me outside this kingdom."
Kairos asked Fern, "Do you want to leave this kingdom with me, travel around the world, and build our own army? Of course, don't worry about your sister. We won't go before we return a dukedom to her and provide her with a strong personal guard to protect her. What do you think of what I say? If you don't agree, it's no problem."
Fern was surprised by the offer and said, "Alright, I will think about this carefully."
Isabel said, "Fern, don't worry about me. Do whatever you want. I want you to be happy, become strong, and leave this kingdom to see a vast world."
Fern replied, "Thank you, sister."
Zilla entered and brought dinner, placing the food on the table. Kairos said, "Thank you very much."
Zilla smiled and said, "Why thank me for doing my duty? But I also appreciate your kind words, sir."
Kairos replied, "Being a servant doesn't mean you shouldn't be thanked. Anyone who works well should be appreciated for their hard work."
Zilla said, "I understand your meaning. I'm sorry for my lack of insight. Thank you for your advice."
Zilla left after setting the table, smiling at Kairos' mature mindset.
Everyone had dinner, then each went to their room and slept. At morning, Kairos woke up early as usual and went to train in the training hall. After finishing his training, Kairos was ascending from the training hall.
At the same time, Zilla and the chef woke up early. Zilla went to the chef and said, "Should we wake him or is it too early?"
The chef replied, "No, it's time to wake him. He should learn to get up early."
Kairos was going up to his room and heard voices in the kitchen, so he went to see who was talking so early in the morning. He found Zilla and the chef talking about him and said, "No need to wake me, because I'm already awake."
The chef said, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be up early, and not only that, but you're also training."
Kairos was wearing a tight shirt and was very sweaty, with his abdominal and arm muscles very prominent. When Zilla saw this, she was very impressed.
Zilla said, "Do you get up early and train every day?"
Kairos replied, "Yes, I do this every day."
The chef said, "No wonder your physical fitness is so good. I also heard from Zilla that you liked my cooking very much."
Fern said, "Yes, I liked it a lot. How about teaching me to cook? A fighter should know cooking to help himself, and also this is a rare opportunity to learn from a chef like you. What do you think?"
The chef replied, "It is an honor for me to teach you."
Kairos said, "Alright, from now on you will be my cooking teacher."
Then he said, "Ah, alright. It seems I have talked too much. I'm sorry for interrupting your work. I will go now. I wish you success."
Zilla said, "What a wonderful child! I wish I had a son or husband like him."
The chef said, "Yes, you are right."
Kairos reached his room, took a shower, found the study clothes Zilla had brought, put them on, and went out to have breakfast. He found Isabel and Fern awake, wearing their academy clothes.
Kairos said, "They look very nice. They suit you."
Isabel jokingly replied, "How do you know they are nice when you haven't even looked at my face?"
Kairos said, "I haven't seen your face, but I know you're beautiful, so anything you wear will look good on you."
Isabel blushed with shyness and said, "It seems you know how to talk to girls. Who taught you that?" She asked with clear jealousy on her face.
Kairos replied, "No one taught me, I just told the truth."
Zilla smiled and said, "Sir, I didn't think you knew how to flirt with girls."
Kairos said, "I wasn't flirting, but Fern looks very handsome. He looks like a noble knight."
Fern said, "Of course, I am too. I will become a great knight in the future."
Kairos said, "That is a good ambition. If you work under my leadership, I will make you one of the best knights in the world."
