Ark, they took my future seriously

[“I have done what you asked. I can last at least two minutes longer than yesterday.”]

[“Two minutes? Your Highness has made such great progress in one day! You must have put in a lot of effort last night.”]

【“That’s natural.”】

[“In that case, then you should show me what you learned yesterday. Yesterday, your challenge lasted thirteen minutes. As long as you can last fifteen minutes today, you will pass. As long as you pass, I will show you the content of Chapter 2.”]

【"What!!!"】

Although Tracy had already guessed what Carlo was going to do, his heart still tightened unconsciously when Carlo actually said it.

[“What? Didn’t His Royal Highness the Regent do his homework?”]

“I did it!”

[“Then show it to me.”]

[“Will you let me show it to you?”]

[“What else? If I don’t supervise you, how can I know if you are lying to me?”]

"I... *Kazdel swears*"

Carlo's shameless request caused Tracy to curse.

But no matter how she cursed inside and outside the deduction, Carlo did not show any mercy.

Still urging her on like a devil.

[Carlo: "Your Highness, are you unwilling to show it? If it's Zhengyang, you will never get this report."]

[Carlo's final threat became the last straw that broke Tracy's tense nerves.]

【“Show me, I can show you.”】

Tracy lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, and his nails dug into his palms.

In order to solve his problem once and for all, Tracy chose to hold his nose and swallow this shitty deduction.

Isn't it just showing off your durability in front of Carlo?

Anyway, this Carlo is virtual, and Carlo has already seen me once yesterday, so there is no difference if he sees me again.

[Tracy bit his lips lightly, and threw away the sword in his hand like a deflated ball.]

[“Since it is ready to be demonstrated, Your Highness, please start immediately. I am very short on time and I have to find another woman in the evening.”]

[“Bugs…disgusting.” Tracy cursed Carlo, but still sat on the desk according to Carlo’s instructions.]

[Due to his lack of experience and the inevitable state of high tension, although Tracys tried his best to control and reduce the frequency of the operation, it didn't take long before a lot of sweat appeared all over his body.]

[After an unknown amount of time, Tracy's calf trembled slightly, and the durability instantly dropped to zero. ]

【“Congratulations, you did it.” Carlo applauded Tracy as if he had just appreciated a wonderful performance. 】

"Did you get away with it?"

Tracy was delighted by Carlo's applause. He had just done this with great shame, and it would be too heartbreaking if he failed.

[“Although you seemed to be working very hard on your make-up homework, your results don’t seem to be ideal. The final result was only twelve minutes. Not only did it not reach the fifteen minutes you just mentioned, it was even one minute shorter than yesterday.”]

[“How is that possible! I was just watching the time, it should be enough... What about the thing you promised to give me?” Ms. Tracy opened her eyes wide and opened her mouth, feeling that she had been greatly deceived.]

[“What are you thinking? You didn’t finish my homework, and you still want a reward? I will punish you by making up your homework today. You must complete it in sixteen minutes by tomorrow morning.”]

[“I don’t agree… I’ve done everything you asked… and there should be enough time.” Tresis uttered trembling words bit by bit.]

[Carlo snorted coldly: "If I say it's not enough, then it's not enough."]

In an instant, Tracy went blank.

She had just made such an effort, and Carlo said it wasn't enough?

Now Tracy felt humiliated and angry. She felt like a monkey being cruelly played by Carlo without any power to resist.

[“Don’t agree? Then add it to seventeen minutes!”]

Carlo's lips curled up into a smile.

In fact, Tracy's challenge just now was successful.

But giving Tracy what she wanted at this point wasn't enough to make her feel disgusted.

Going back on one's words is what a typical villain should do.

Only by constantly going back on his words could Tracys feel disgusted with him.

[“How can you be so shameless…” Tracy pursed her lips and stared at Carlo fiercely. If Tracy hadn’t been so experienced, she would have burst into tears like an ordinary girl.]

[“Don’t make that expression. You know better than me whether you did your homework yesterday.”]

[Carlo stroked his chin, looked at Tracy with a playful look and said, "I originally gave you sixteen minutes to challenge you, which was a bit too lenient. Since you are so careless, I will give you twenty minutes."]

[“If you still can’t complete my assignment tomorrow, you will be punished further, and I will personally participate in your training.”]

[“Of course, if you do what I ask, I will show you the contents of Chapter 2 without missing a word.”]

[Tracy nodded silently. Now she had no choice but to accept it.]

[“Very good, I will invite you to the rooftop after the regular meeting tomorrow. I hope you won’t make the same mistake today again.”]

[Carlo slowly turned around and left calmly, leaving Tracy with a complicated expression.]

[Carlo has left. Did you follow his request and carry out the intensive training? ]

"I……"

Unlike the rage and cursing he showed after the simulation ended yesterday, Tracy now has to seriously consider this option.

In order to get the report on the revival of Kazdel from Carlo.

Even if it meant a certain degree of forbearance, she had to do it.

"Yes, I will start intensive training myself."

Chapter 176: Not bad, not bad, you have learned to study on your own.

"It's just intensive training. We can get through it with gritted teeth. Just consider it as a necessary sacrifice for victory."

Tracy, whose whole body was already blushing with shame, chose the option that represented humiliation.

And I also comfort myself in my heart with the reason of victory.

However, even though Tracy made great sacrifices, the training results in the simulation were still not ideal.

[You put down the work in your hands, returned to your residence in advance, and after driving away the servant who was responsible for making dinner, you found a stopwatch and started training. ]

[The first result was 18 minutes and 20 seconds.]

[The second time was 16 minutes and 32 seconds.]

……

【The sixth time score was 15 points.】

[Your strength is exhausted and you fall into a deep sleep. ]

Tracy was going crazy. Whether it was swordsmanship or studying, the more you practiced, the more proficient you would become.

But why is it getting shorter the more she practices?

Is this thing really that difficult?

Without giving Tracy time to delve into the reasons behind this, time went straight to the next day.

[Tracy, who had not completed his training goal, attended the regular morning meeting with trepidation.]

[However, there is an important matter to be discussed at today's regular morning meeting. Morgan from Victoria has sent an application for joint operations to the Military Committee.]

[The Victorian Revolutionary Army, which has been resting for several months, is preparing to launch a new offensive against the Duke's forces in October, in order to completely seize Victoria's road to Syracuse and Kazdel.]

[The Revolutionary Army will send 20,000 troops to cut off the connection between the Duke of Caster and the southeast of Victoria, and build a bridgehead in the Duke of Caster to prepare for the attack on the Duke of Caster.]

[The rest of the main force stayed in Londinium to prevent the Iron Duke, who had hundreds of thousands of soldiers, from attacking their base camp.]

[As for the Military Committee, Morgan hopes that the Military Committee can send 20,000 troops from Kazdel to capture the three small towns of the Eastern Duke.]

[It is undoubtedly a very challenging task for 20,000 people to capture three cities. ]

【The Military Committee held a heated discussion on this matter.】

【But as the regent, Tracy's attention is not on this. 】

[She hadn't finished her homework, and she was always worried about how Carlo would punish her today.]

[However, unlike Tracy, Carlo did not seem to be thinking about how to punish her. To be more precise, during normal meetings, Carlo rarely even looked at her, but was discussing seriously and coming up with a corresponding battle plan.]

[“I think the Duke of the East is vulnerable. We can cooperate with the revolutionary army. What do you think, Your Highness the Regent?” After Carlo finished speaking his thoughts, he turned his head and looked at Tracys who was sitting in the main seat.]

【After being stared at by Carlo, Tracy trembled with guilt, and then replied softly: "I agree with you. You will be fully responsible for this matter."】

【"OK."】

[Tracy gave full command and planning of the operation to Carlo.]

[After taking on the mission, Carlo saw that you looked haggard, so he told you to take a rest and then started to seriously formulate a battle plan for October.]

"Strange, didn't Carlo say he would take me to the rooftop after the meeting?"

"Why did he not take any action after the meeting? And he asked me to go and rest?"

Tracy was as curious now as she was nervous just now.

According to Carlo's scumbag personality, Kazdel's political affairs should be far less important than teasing her.

But now Carlo actually took his work seriously instead of continuing to punish her.

Did Carlo change his character? Did he become obsessed with power and give up his evil habits?

Carlo's uncharacteristic behavior made Tracy speculate about his underlying motives.

[At noon, Carlo is still formulating a battle plan.]

[You deliberately walked around in front of Carlo's office. After seeing you, Carlo asked curiously: "Regent, what can I do for you?"]

[“Uh… no, I just came to take a look.”]

[“Carlo smiled brightly: “Your Highness, Regent, don’t worry, I will definitely do a good job in the next task.”]

Seeing Carlo's bright and natural smile, Tracy couldn't help but guess:

"Could it be that Carlo has really changed his personality and stopped targeting me, and started to take his work seriously?"

"No, he must be waiting for the evening."

"He will definitely show his evil claws at night."

[Late at night, you asked someone about Carlo's whereabouts. Carlo was still in the war room discussing the October operation.]

[You thought about the homework Carlo gave you yesterday. Will you continue to exercise tonight? ]

Seeing that Carlo didn't come to see him today, Tracy finally put his worries to rest.

She thought about it seriously and realized that everyone sometimes does irrational things because of impulse.

The reason why Carlo forced her to exercise on her own two days ago must have been that he was overwhelmed by external pressure.

That's true. With Carlo's strength, he could even execute her on the spot.

Why let her come by herself?

Maybe Carlo was just blinded by a momentary evil thought.

But a trace of responsibility and kindness in his heart dissuaded him from making further mistakes.

After some imagination, Tracy held out hope that Carlo had returned to the right track and would not repeat what happened yesterday.

So Tracy chose to stop exercising tonight and have a good sleep.

However, what happened the next morning was a heavy blow to Tracy.

[In the early morning, you felt as if your door was opened from the outside. You opened your eyes alertly, only to find Carlo leaning against your door with a smirk on his face.]

【When you saw Carlo, you were in a trance for a moment. 】

[The panic and anxiety that disappeared yesterday returned to your heart at this moment. ]
