Liens secretly thought to himself.
This Princess Knight's methods are not simple.
She perfectly grasped the key point for the upper class to win over the lower class—care.
Simple guidance, combined with her status, immediately highlighted her difference from previous Princess Knights.
Because she truly put her heart into the soldiers, instead of just putting on a show and acting as a "vase."
"If our General is really as Gars said... he probably won't be able to contend with this Princess."
Liens muttered in his heart.
However, this was not something he should be concerned about.
What does the Glenbagen Family's situation have to do with him?
When he received this task, Liens was already prepared to slack off.
As for the "communication book"... he just needed to write something casually and send it back every once in a while.
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Just as Liens was thinking of that General of the Glenbagen Family, he saw a somewhat familiar figure step into the training ground.
Bald, with an empty forehead, all his hair concentrated on the back of his head.
It was probably a haircut specifically styled because the "Mediterranean" look severely affected his image.
A middle-aged man, fat-faced, big-eared, with a round belly, dressed in a red robe, with a badge pinned to his chest, and followed by several Misses dressed as maids.
He had probably seen this person a few months ago at the Training Camp; at that time, the other party was standing beside the instructor, so he still had some impression.
Liens showed a hint of surprise.
Seeing the newcomer, the general who had previously been defeated by Lucrezia quickly stepped forward and saluted him.
"General, I trust you are well."
"May I ask if you have any instructions for coming to the training ground?"
The general inquired about General Aboer's purpose for coming.
Although he could roughly guess the purpose of this lazy General's visit, he still made the routine inquiry.
After all, a guess is just a guess; how could one use one's own guess to confirm a leader's decision?
"I received news of the current Princess Knight's arrival, so I immediately rushed over to prepare for her reception."
"So, where is that Princess Knight now... Hmm, found her."
General Aboer smiled as he responded to the general.
As he spoke, he scanned the entire field with his gaze, and soon he noticed the open space surrounded by soldiers.
Looking up, he also saw that proud, heroic figure.
He had the maids beside him push aside the soldiers blocking his view, allowing him to stand in front.
The disturbed soldiers, seeing that the newcomer was the General who usually never came to the training ground, and rarely even to the Military Fortress, silently made way for him.
"Not bad, not bad..."
General Aboer praised her incessantly.
As he spoke, he shamelessly gazed over Lucrezia's entire body, especially lingering for a long time on her key areas.
"Stop, immediately cease the duel."
Perhaps he had seen enough, General Aboer spoke up to stop the duel on the field.
This decision caused dissatisfaction among many soldiers present.
But everyone dared not resist General Aboer, and could only quietly vent their displeasure.
Although the voices were quiet, the large number of people meant that the combined sound made the scene somewhat noisy.
General Aboer naturally heard the soldiers' words of dissatisfaction, but he didn't care at all; his gaze was fixed only on the beautiful figure before him.
"General, I trust you are well."
Lucrezia bowed slightly to General Aboer as a greeting.
"Princess Lucrezia, why didn't you inform me beforehand about your arrival at this fortress?"
"That way, I could have prepared a welcoming banquet in advance." Chapter source: My Virtual Library Empire (*).
General Aboer responded with a smile.
As he spoke, he walked to Lucrezia's side, puffed out his chest, and deeply inhaled the Princess's body scent.
He even wanted to reach out and touch Lucrezia's body.
However, Lucrezia dodged him.
Facing General Aboer's actions, Lucrezia still maintained a smile, but she shifted her body, moving away from him.
All the soldiers present saw General Aboer's behavior and began to curse softly.
"Is this a General? This is truly..."
Seeing the behavior of this greasy middle-aged man, Liens was at a loss for how to comment.
At least pay attention to the occasion! Does he really think all the soldiers present are invisible?
The general once again stopped the soldiers' grumbling.
"I just arrived this morning and haven't had time to inform the General yet... As for the banquet, it would be more lively if everyone in the camp participated together."
Lucrezia smiled as she responded to General Aboer's question.
"How can those commoners participate in the banquet? Wouldn't that lower the quality of the banquet?"
General Aboer spoke bluntly.
Hearing this, Liens was utterly speechless inwardly.
Can he just say that out loud?
Even if he thought that, he shouldn't say it in the current setting, right?
Now, he completely believed what Gars had said.
This title of "Incompetent General" truly isn't something just anyone can earn.
With such a General, it's no wonder a position like "Princess Knight" is needed to boost the soldiers' morale.
And the soldiers present who heard General Aboer's words all showed indignant expressions on their faces.
But limited by the disparity in status, at most, they could only try to kill General Aboer with their gazes, which would have no real-world effect.
So, did General Aboer not notice how astonishing his remarks were?
Perhaps he noticed, but he didn't care.
"It's still better if everyone participates together."
Lucrezia still held her ground, firmly stating that the soldiers should also participate in the banquet.
At this moment, Liens could see smiles appearing on many people's faces, especially Gars; the corners of his mouth were so curved they looked like they could hang something.
"Alright then... Let's go inside and discuss the banquet arrangements in detail."
General Aboer was somewhat displeased, but seeing that Lucrezia still insisted, he agreed.
Then, he took the opportunity to invite Lucrezia to talk privately.
"I just happen to have something I wanted to ask the General about, and since the General is here, I'll mention it now."
"I would like to become the daily training instructor. I wonder if I can get the General's approval?"
Lucrezia did not agree to General Aboer's invitation; instead, she changed the subject and made a request to him.
"Oh, that... Since Princess Lucrezia has brought it up, I personally am very much in favor of it."
"After all, if someone can share my burden, why wouldn't I be willing?"
"However, this position involves many aspects and is not easy to handle. I might need some time to consider it."
"How about we discuss the banquet first?"
General Aboer deliberately put on a very troubled expression.
"Hmm, then let's discuss the banquet arrangements first, as that is also very important."
Lucrezia replied with a smile.
She knew what General Aboer wanted to express; his so-called difficulty was merely a threat.
"Alright then, let's go."
Hearing this, General Aboer smiled and said to Lucrezia.
After speaking, he turned and walked towards the exit of the training ground, not at all worried that Lucrezia would go back on her word.
As for Lucrezia, before leaving, she said to the soldiers present:
"Everyone, see you tonight."
