Albrecht decided to do nothing and simply secretly observe the order at the festival.

In gray?

Fixed it. I sometimes write in gray in other threads, I'm getting a bit absent-minded...

Radianta finds her list of tasks and tears it into a thousand pieces.

1. Earn 10,000 cetrens (0/10000).
2. Hack three cool chests (0/3).
3. Apply "discomfort" to three women (0/3).
4. Apply "discomfort" to three men (0/3).
5. Fill all inventory slots with items that satisfy my aesthetic sense (0/8).
6. Upgrade the water school to the sixth level (2/6).
7. Acquire a cool blaster (0/1).
8. Complete five quests (0/5).
9. Defeat 25 opponents (0/25).
10. Maintain a good mood.

There's no need to distract herself with silly fantasies.

The influence of forum experience on the human brain.

Yu'ner Kalidar soon loses interest in Drevos and returns to closely observing the festival. At some point, a long-haired young man with features very similar to the First Minister approaches her.

– Greetings, madam!

– Irdhir, and you're here too! The festival is in safe hands! – Yu'ner Kalidar chuckled softly.

– Son, – Captain Akoren ruffled Irdhis's hair.

– The quarter is under control. All the designated individuals arrived on time.

– Excellent!

The First Minister definitely looks pleased.

– And you've made quite a climb in the ranks, son.

– I'm taking my cue from you, father.

– Heh-heh-heh.

It was no secret to anyone that Yu'ner Kalidar had a large number of lovers and descendants. Moreover, many were amazed by the fact that the First Minister so easily passed the stage of sacrificing her flesh during reproduction. Her body seemed to suffer no damage from this dangerous procedure. No one in the kingdom had even close to the same number of descendants. However, when it came to raising children, Yu'ner Kalidar always left it to the fathers. Were the descendants her gift to her lovers?

Although Yu'ner's lifestyle was not a secret... the fact that Captain Akoren was also the father of one of the First Minister's sons promised to be a very unexpected surprise for Drevos.

Meanwhile, with Albrecht:

He was watching the event powerfully and unobtrusively. All the fun was happening around him, but he was fine with it.

Meanwhile, with Radianta:

Unfortunately, she didn't know that the storyteller, being in another country, couldn't upload new images to his hosting and edit them properly, and therefore decided to temporarily steer the story to places where this wasn't required.

But that didn't mean she should just sit back and wait for the festival to end.

Meanwhile, with Albrecht:

He was observing the event powerfully and discreetly. All the fun was happening around him, but he was fine with it.

– What are we waiting for? – a stern male voice boomed. No matter how agile Albrecht was, he still had a long way to go before he could compare to Captain Warren. Unfortunately, the most secretive of all the secret guards wasn't alone; he was with his beloved priestess, Emma. – Our primary task is to create the necessary scale for the First Minister, not to maintain order. Others will take care of that. Warren nodded towards an entire legion of priestesses gathered nearby. – The High Priestess is personally overseeing the festival, – Emma confirmed. – What a scale! – Indeed!

. – What are we waiting for? – a stern male voice boomed.

- He ate too much watermelon, - Albrecht replied curtly.

– Eat a couple more; this berry takes some getting used to and initially causes stomach problems, – Waren shared his secret for treatment, – and now go to the dancers. I know you're quite the dancer. This is an order. Hmm. Let me give you an example.

The captain of the secret guard pulled Emma along with him to the very center of the Dance Trial participants and started dancing as if he had been doing nothing else his whole life. Well, he had a good reputation at royal balls for a reason.

"Son..." - Dervos thinks, trying to maintain a calm expression, and no matter how much he wants to look away from this scene, he deliberately avoids doing so. - "When will I have a son, then? My father is already waiting for grandchildren in the afterlife. But it's okay, he'll wait as long as necessary. First, I need to build a career," the guard consoles himself. If/when there is a break in this scene, where the son goes off to do his own thing, and the Chief is free, Dervos says: - Ahem. This celebration came about quite unexpectedly. What are my orders, sir?

. – Eat a couple more, this berry requires getting used to and initially causes stomach problems, – Waren shared the secret of the cure, – and now go to the dancers. I know you're good at dancing. This is an order. Hmm. Let me give you an example.

Albrecht goes to the dancers.
- Excuse me, are there any watermelons here?

In his time, Derevos remained unmarried only due to the lineage of a random survivor from a distant corner of the kingdom. For the more fortunate citizens of Cela-Mira, there was a law requiring marriage before the age of thirty, also introduced at the initiative of Yuinir Kalidar. Captain Akoren was accompanied by the first minister, and therefore had no intention of parting with her, nor did his son. But at a certain point, Derevos was given the coveted orders. "We need more participants, more spectacle, more wonderful performances. Go, participate in the festival trials, sir," the first minister commanded. "And also... your protégé, Gortrich, continues to violate my law. Do something about it. The elite of the capital guard must look perfect." "Marry Derevos?" Captain Akoren pondered. "That's not difficult... Mgle is about to be released." "Ah, dear Mgle... I was already starting to forget about her..." With this, Derevos is sent to demonstrate his talents at the festival. Meanwhile, with Albrecht: The stern Sorntarnit dancers, wearing only loincloths, were definitely masters of their craft and therefore saw Albrecht as a worthy opponent. "Defeat us in a dance battle, and then we will bring you the best watermelons!"

– And also... your protégé, Gortrich, continues to violate my law. Do something about it. The elite of the capital guard must look perfect.

Having completely cleared his mind of any thoughts that, as it turned out, this woman could read in a snap, Derevos woodenly plays his second card and goes to show off his talents.

Yuener Kalidar couldn't read minds, and the fact that she started talking about it at the same time as Dervos was thinking about it is nothing more than a coincidence. After all, the Mist, whoever she was, existed from the very first appearance of our brave guard in this story...

So, which of the ten festival challenges interested Dervos?

A post about the challenges was previously published.

– Marry Treesa? – Captain Akoren pondered. – That’s not difficult... Mgle will be released soon.

A bowl of rice and cat skin for faithful service to the party.

Meanwhile, with Albrecht:

The stern Sorntarnit dancers, wearing only loincloths, were definitely masters of their craft and therefore saw Albrecht as a worthy opponent.

– Defeat us in a dance battle, and then we will bring you the best watermelons!
