Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Olivia who had started cultivating earlier than Alice was already at the peak of the 6th Layer of the Body Refining stage, while Alice had only recently advanced to the 5th Layer of the Body Refining stage.

If they hadn't been busy practicing some battle techniques, their cultivation would have been higher.

It hasn't even been a month since they began to cultivate, but their progress was already remarkable!

Fredrinn could only sigh at their exceptional talent.

He looked away from them and turned his head at the guards unit who were dressed in their custom-made uniform. When he first met them, they were unruly and undisciplined.

Looking at their sharp gazes and firm posture, he was very pleased.

"I'm very happy with your performance. Each one of you has grown considerably and there are even some who have advanced a layer." Fredrinn sounded satisfied and it made them feel proud.

"Today, I have a gift for each one of you." Fredrinn mysteriously said. His words ignited everyone's interest and they couldn't help but perk their ears.

"Some of you participated in the operation yesterday so I'm sure most of you are aware that we managed to get over a hundred war horses." Fredrinn didn't need to say the rest. Everyone already understood what was about to happen.

When he saw their excited faces, Fredrinn no longer made them wait. He turned his head at the young boy who was nervously standing behind Olivia and Alice. This was the kid who was responsible for taking care of the captured horses in the beast farm. Fredrinn met him yesterday when he was looking for the war horses on the beast farm.

"Sean, please ask the brothers to bring the horses here." Fredrinn nodded at the boy.

The kid named Sean felt scared when he sensed everyone's gazes. He had never gotten this kind of attention since he was born so he was flustered.

"It's alright. You don't need to be nervous." Olivia smiled gently at him.

Alice also sent him an encouraging smile.

Sean gulped down hard and suppressed the nervousness. He bowed at Fredrinn and nodded gratefully at the two ladies. He then went to carry out Fredrinn's instruction.

Not long later, ten servants came, pulling fifty war horses with them. These servants were only normal people, but the horses were very tamed so they had no trouble dealing with them.

The eyes of every member of the guards unit sparkled with excitement when they saw the muscular war horses.

"Thank you." Fredrinn smiled at the boy and the servants before turning his gaze to the guards unit.

"I will call you one by one. Please come forward to claim your new mount." Fredrinn announced.

The members of the guards unit eagerly waited for their names to be called and when it was their turn, they pridefully stepped forward to take their new mounts.

It took almost an hour to distribute the war horses.

"Now that the war horses are in your hands, they will be your responsibility as of this moment. You must treat them well. They will be your companion so you must gain their trust." Fredrinn sternly said.

"Yes, my lord!" Everyone answered with great enthusiasm.

"Gunnar!" Fredrinn called Gunnar.

"Here!" The latter stepped out of the formation and gave him a standard salute.

"Starting tomorrow, you must teach everyone how to ride a horse," Fredrinn instructed.

"I will guide them properly, my lord!" Gunnar nodded.

"Once everyone is used to riding the horses, teach them the basic cavalry formations and tactics. This is necessary for their development so you have to be strict with their training. I will check on everyone's progress every week." Fredrinn wanted to copy the Blackcrow Household's elite cavalry unit.

The Firecrown Household has hundreds of martial practitioners, but they were quite lacking in elite horse riders. He wanted to nurture his own cavalry unit, one that surpasses even the elite cavalry of the Blackcrow Household. He was aware that it would take some time to build a force of that caliber, but he was willing to wait and give it a shot.

"Yes, my lord! I won't disappoint you!" Gunnar nodded with a confident smile. As the captain of the guards unit, he would be happy to see everyone grow into a powerful force.

"Good! You guys may start building some connection with your horses."

Fredrinn gave them a few more instructions before he left with Olivia and Alice.

On their way back to the main mansion, Fredrinn was quick to notice Olivia's sullen face. "What made my Olivia look like that?" He laughed with a teasing look.

The girl pouted and refused to say anything.

Seeing her acting like this, Alice could only smile while shaking her head. She was the only servant who would dare to act like this in front of Fredrinn.

"Are you jealous that I gave them horses?" Fredrinn placed his arm over her shoulders.

Olivia was surprised by his unexpected clinginess, but she didn't detest his touch. She felt that they had grown past their master-servant relationship.

Thinking about this, she recalled the time when Fredrinn told her that he treated her like a sister. Her heart felt warm all of a sudden.

"I also like a horse." She said in a cute manner.

Fredrinn couldn't help but rub her hair when he saw her acting like this. "Don't worry. There are still plenty of horses in the beast farm. I promise that you and Alice will get one each once you advance to the Qi Gathering realm."

Hearing this, Olivia stared at him in excitement. "Really?"

"Of course!"

"Hehe!"
