The Demon Queen's Royal Consort

Lesley's thoughts during the training session:

'He's taking longer than I imagined to harmonize his internal energy flow with his body.'

'What's the problem? It's been an hour, and he still hasn't managed it. How can someone so talented have so much difficulty? Is it because of the two different energies running through his pathways?'

'A slight shiver ran down my spine before he finally harmonized the energy with his body. Well, better late than never.'

'He's doing well. Two hours straight without a break. Unbelievable focus.'

'Okay, this is getting bizarre! How can an Awakened, on the first day, stay focused on internal energy control for three hours straight?'

'Glenn Hughes, who the hell are you? How did the empire never notice someone so extraordinary, especially from a family that lived in the capital? Any lord would have been delighted to spread rumors about a talented son. I really don't understand.'

'Six hours have passed. Damn, six hours! I'm really not qualified to be his energy control teacher. Good thing Her Majesty has already made arrangements.'

'Seven hours! How much innate energy does this damn guy have? Probably a lot, due to the two...' Her thoughts were interrupted by Glenn convulsing on the central rectangular platform.

"An energy collapse. His energy ran out," she whispered, quickly running towards Glenn, who was collapsing to the ground, convulsing.
