"Nial can wield the spear?" The Empress was astonished when she heard the news.

She ignored the fact that the servant mention an eerily coldness and illusionary darkness oozing out of Nial, only to focus on the point she focused on the most.

"...Wield the spear? He is one with the spear…or so they said." The servant said, forgetting about the formalities for a moment.

The Empress didn\'t like formalities. Thus, as long as they weren\'t in the royal hall where she would be sitting on the throne, she would rather be considered Nial\'s mother. The title \'mother\' made her happier than being the Empress. She was the ruler of the Lacardia Empyrean Void long enough to lose the feeling of excitement surging through her entire body when it came to ruling the empire.

It had been different in the past, but not anymore. She lost the desire to innovate new rules and to excitedly fight with other politicians and nobles to make sure that they would keep their promises, manage their land properly, and everything else.

It was not as if she wouldn\'t do all these things. However, the burning flame of excitement burned down a little. She was more focused on her son, his well-being, and his growth. That was the most important for her, and it excited her more than anything else.

As for the unexcited things, the Empress still did them diligently, but she also gave her subordinates more tasks to spend more time with Nial. After all, she couldn\'t know how long Nial would stay by her side like he was doing right now. He was already growing up way too fast for her fragile heart to accept.

The Empress had already been sad that she couldn\'t provide her son with a normal child\'s life. However, hearing the news about him being \'one with the spear\', she couldn\'t help but feel even worse.

Being one with a weapon meant that this type of weapon felt like an extension of the body once wielded. It was a state which not even true combat masters, veterans of decades could easily attain.

Yet, Nial was said to have reached this state? Was that a bad joke? It was not that easy!

"Was the Emperor already informed about this?" The Empress asked. She nibbled on her lower lip and hoped that the servant would shake her head.

Unfortunately, the servant flinched and didn\'t dare to meet the Empress\' eyes.

"Seems like the reports were already sent over to him."

The Empress sounded a little sad and frustrated. If possible, she would have prepared a plan before sending the report over to the Emperor. As the Guardian of the Lacardia Empyrean Void, he would be overjoyed to hear that his son had reached the One with the Spear state. He would be baffled but definitely exhilarated.

His excitement and desire to create a powerful heir who could rule and protect the Lacardia Empyrean Void would be more than enough to change the plans the Empress had prepared for her beloved child.

She knew that the new discovery would change all plans, and had a bad premonition.

Nourishing a powerful warrior from a young age meant that Nial\'s second and following Familiars would be much stronger than the Goldscale Serpent. Unfortunately, that also meant he had to be nourished in accordance with the talent he possessed.

Leaving him in the Imperial Academy would be a waste now that his \'true\' dormant potential had been unleashed.

What Nial Lacardia needed right now was not to mingle with the other \'talented\' nobles and commoners in the Imperial Academy. What he needed was actual combat experience, and enough pressure to squeeze out every single drop of talent.

This was the best when it came to training Nial. Sending him over to a military camp which was usually only something Creatoran between the age of 18-30 would have to participate if they desired to join the military for the resources and to protect their race from invaders.

The Empress had a very bad feeling thinking about the Military Camp, but it was not as if she could do something about it. The Empire was always in danger and the most recent events showed that it was better for Nial to focus his all on increasing his strength.

As the Empress, she wanted a strong Crown Prince who was capable of handling troublesome situations by himself. However, as a doting mother, she wanted nothing more than to see her child well-protected and happy.

Was Nial happy in the current situation? Was he forcing himself to do everything he was currently doing?

Could anyone be happy under his circumstances, or would he start hating her? The Empress didn\'t really know and she actually didn\'t want to find out.

Thus, she charged out of the office and made her way to a secret place in the Royal Palace. It was about time that she initiated the plan she came up with when she got pregnant.

Meanwhile, Nial was not yet done with the demonstration of his power. He defeated most students by now and his breathing got a little rougher. His chest heaved up and down slowly while Mana surged through his body.

His silver eyes darted in all directions before he dashed forward. Without any issues, he crossed the distance to the nearest opponent.

There were only three students left and they shivered in fright. Their legs were like jelly and it was apparent that they weren\'t confident in their strength.

It was not further difficult to defeat them either. Nail\'s movements were swift and flawless. His thrusts, strikes, and cuts were precise and his opponents fell victim to his attacks in no time.

This way, only his personal maid, Celine, was left behind. She looked at Nial in shock and was trying to figure out how her master became so powerful all of a sudden. Celine had already had difficulties keeping up with Nial before, but his sudden burst in strength, originating from a simple change of weapon, was not something she could cope with.

Her heart was beating wildly, yet, oddly enough, she felt a little excited.

\'If I follow someone like him, I can become stronger as well. I can protect him and become his shield!\'
