Chapter 914

Edwin arrived alone, without a single attendant His plain green attire was paired with a thick black cloak To anyone unfamiliar, he could have been mistaken for a steward from some noble house

Rafael and Carissa were the first to rise to greet him, with everyone else following suit. They all felt a deep gratitude for Edwin’s silent assistance

After the formalities, Edwin got straight to the point, saying, “I’m ashamed to say I couldn’t get that brat to agree unconditionally. He set a condition, so I had to come here first to ask Lady Carissa and Ms Spencer’s opinion”

The word “ashamed” caught everyone off guard, but when they heard the rest, they finally breathed a collective sigh of relief

However, Violet was confused. “Why would you need my opinion? What does he want?

“He said he wants you to be his mentor, Ms Spencer. He wants to be one of your direct apprentices, like Commander Lewis, Deputy Commander Brown, and Commander Prince,” Edwin said, replaceing the situation

strange

Violet blinked, momentarily thrown off “Huh? He wants me to teach him martial arts?”

She didn’t fully understand Kevin’s reasoning. He was an official in court and could attend the lessons with everyone else, so why would he need to become her apprentice? She had only agreed to take on three apprentices.

“He said he wants to advance based on his strength,” Edwin explained “Military officers are judged on martial prowess and cunning. The kid’s sharp, but his martial skills aren’t up to par yet.”

Violet understood now, nodding in thought. She glanced at Carissa, who was also watching her

This decision would largely depend on Violet’s feelings. After all, accepting an apprentice wasn’t something to be taken lightly. Even with Max and the others, it had been a challenge for her.

“Fine. I’ll take him on,” Violet said without much hesitation.

Normally, though, with her usual temperament, something like this–which felt like a threat to her–would have been impossible for her to agree to However, since it involved Carissa’s grandfather, some principles could be set aside.

Carissa’s gratitude was immediate “Thank you, Vivi”

“Why are you thanking me? I’m just getting another apprentice to boss around,” Violet teased with a smile, though her thoughts were far less friendly.

Inwardly, she was seathing How dare Kevin use Dominic as leverage? Once she took him on, she would make sure to make his life miserable!

Rafael, who had previously claimed he wasn’t worried, finally let out a deep sigh of relief after hearing Edwin’s report. “You’ve done us a great service, Lord Edwin I am deeply grateful.”

“You’re too kind, Your Highness,” Edwin said with a modest smile “Even putting aside the fact that you saved my son, I wouldn’t have let that brat speak out of turn I went to see him alone today, so no one else knows

about this You don’t have to worry about it, Your Highness, Your Grace.”

Rafael nodded. “I know you handle things with great care, Lord Edwin. I wasn’t worried”

It wouldn’t be appropriate for Edwin to stay long, so he stood up and took his leave

After Michael spoke with Barrett, the latter had no reason to refuse, and no courage to, either. His life had been spared thanks to Wyatt, and now, he wanted to repay that debt. The Sullivans had been good to him during the Victory Pass campaign

Barrett told Michael that Carissa should go see her grandfather the next day instead. There were two reasons for that. First, Dominic needed rest after the long and exhausting journey. Second, going tomorrow night would attract less attention

Michael agreed. It made sense to wait until the next day. He would also let Barrett arrange it, so as not to put too much pressure on himself

Carissa felt her heart ache for Dominic. The journey had been grueling. If it meant waiting so he could rest,

she didn’t mind it

Meanwhile, Kevin arrived that evening, carrying gifts to formally request an apprenticeship under Violet.

Having served by Salvador’s side for so long, Kevin knew better than anyone that the king feared the Hell Monarch. Yet here he was, fearlessly bringing gifts and visiting Hell Monarch Estate. What’s more, he invited his parents and wife to join him.

Violet had been quite angry at first, planning to scold him when he came to ask for the apprenticeship. When she saw him accompanied by his parents and wife, however, her anger dissipated,

It was clear that Kevin’s parents were kind, warm people. They treated Violet with an especially polite and grateful manner.

Kevin’s father, older than Violet by many years, became visibly emotional as he bowed respectfully and said, ” If he ever disobeys, gets lazy, or does anything he shouldn’t, feel free to discipline him as you see fit, Ms. Spencer. If you have to beat him, I won’t complain–even if it kills him.”
