Just before sunrise the following morning, Lucian was already awakened.
He stood bare-chested in his bedroom and wore his robe that was made of the finest silk. His chest muscles, as well as his abs, were in full view as he did not wrap the robe around him. The robe fell straight by his sides and exuded the aura of a king.

"We can recruit soldiers from the academy, they're young, their powers are still in discovery. All they require is some training," Lucian shared with Llewellyn his plan to move for the students studying at the academy.
