Emmanuel definitely intended to deal with Gautier, but he didn’t yet have the
excuse or time. So, he simply reassured his sister, “As soon as the opportunity
présents itself, I’ll make sure to kill him. Better to eliminate the threat now
than let it fester.”
He didn’t plan to discuss it with Mackenzie. Instead, he would act first and
inform her later. While eliminating Gautier might bring some complications-
like leaving the branch office without a manager–someone so deeply
scheming couldn’t be allowed to remain.
Meanwhile, at the Lannister Estate, Hank was standing guard outside a room
where Gwain was in seclusion, practicing the Dragon Tome. Hank’s job was to
ensure no one disturbed him.

It had been three days since Gwain went into seclusion. Hank had no idea
how Gwain’s training was progressing, but word had reached him that in

three days, Yorick would be arriving in Zovince. His plan was to challenge and
efeat the Eight Supreme Grandmasters before facing the Lannister family.
With the whereabouts of the family patriarch unknown, the Lannister family
would undoubtedly need Gwain to step up. If Gwain couldn’t master the
Dragon Tome in time, they’d be humiliated and potentially lose their standing
in Zovince overnight.
“Hank, how’s Mr. Gwain doing?” Wyatt Lannister suddenly appeared,
addressing Hank.
“Oh, look who’s finally here to check on Mr. Gwain,” Hank sneered, his attitude
sour. He hadn’t forgotten that Wyatt had kept his distance for almost two

weeks after returning to Zovince. Like many of the other younger Lannisters,
Hank suspected Wyatt was eyeing the position of heir.
Cut the nonsense!” Wyatt shot back coldly. “If I had any ambition to take
over, may I never die a peaceful death! Besides, even if I wanted it, I’m not
capable. My talent doesn’t come close to Mr. Gwain’s.”
“Why have you been avoiding him like the other young Lannisters then?” Hank
demanded.
“I’m not going to discuss that. The situation right now is too complicated the
Martial Saint is coming, elections are happening, and the West End is dealing
with disasters and bandits. All of Chanaea is in turmoil, and every faction in
the Lannister family has its own agenda. It’s a mess…” Wyatt rambled for a bit
before getting to his point. “I came to check on Mr. Gwain’s progress.

Historically, for the Lannisters to survive chaotic times, we’ve always needed
a leader who could stand strong, but right now, the family is in a precarious
position.”
“Yeah, I’m worried about that too,” Hank admitted, now that he was sure
Wyatt had no ill intentions toward Gwain. “Mr. Gwain’s reputation exceeds his
current strength. Frankly, he’s not only unprepared to face a Martial Saint-
he’s not even on Emmanuel’s level.”
They had all been present in Eldoria at the Quill family residency when they
saw firsthand the terrifying power of Emmanuel’s strikes. If Gwain had been in
Emmanuel’s place that day, he wouldn’t have been able to produce such
overwhelming force. They underestimated Emmanuel strategically, but
tactically, they took him very seriously.

As they spoke, the door to the room suddenly opened. Gwain stepped out,
and both Hank and Wyatt rushed forward to greet him.
“Mr. Gwain, you’re out! How’s your progress with the Dragon Tome?” Hank
asked eagerly.

Wyatt quickly noticed something was different about Gwain. His aura had
changed, becoming much colder than before. His once refined and elegant
demeanor had been replaced with a steely, almost chilling presence,

“Heh, I can feel my internal strength has grown considerably. If I could
practice the complete set, I’d be truly invincible!” Gwain said, lifting his hands
and feeling the surge of power within him.
“That’s incredible, Mr. Gwain! If we can capture Roselynn or kill Emmanuel and
get Gautier to hand over the second half of the Dragon Tome, once you’ve
mastered it, you’ll have nothing to fear–not Yorick nor anyone else in the
world!” Hank shared in Gwain’s excitement.
“How about testing your strength first, Mr. Gwain?” Wyatt suggested,
remaining level–headed.
He had two motives. First, he wanted to gauge how much stronger Gwain

had become. Second, he wanted to see if there were any flaws in his training.”
Something felt a bit off to him.
Alright!” Gwain agreed, eager to put his newfound power to the test.
However, half an hour later, after smashing stones and trees in the backyard,
Gwain found himself clenching his teeth in frustration. What Emmanuel had
figured out in just one night took Gwain three days and nights of intense
practice to realize–he had raw power but couldn’t fully use it. His bottleneck
was significant: no matter how much power he built up, the output was
limited. His endurance might have improved, but against someone like
Yorick, he would still be defeated within three moves.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Gwain. It’s likely because you’ve only practiced half of the
Dragon Tome. The fact that you’ve made progress in just three days is

ure enough, Gwain gradually calmed down, though he still gritted his teeth.
“D“mn that Gaution! He insists I have to take down Ernmanuel before he’ll give
me the second half. But right now, I might not even be able to defeat him!”
Wyatt was relieved that Gwain still had enough clarity to realize his limits. If
