Her Majestic Battle Cry

Chapter 1126

Chapter 1126

Carissa was a bit surprised.

“I remember your son is quite good with his studies. Why would he want to study martial arts with me? Madam

Zoey, | don’t know how to be a good mentor, especially for someone who is meant to inherit a title. Surely his

best path is to continue his studies and becan official?”

Carissa didn’t want to take on an apprentice. She already had a public position, and she couldn't devote the time

necessary for proper teaching. And Cedric was still young-just a boy in his teens. Besides martial arts, she would

need to teach him how to conduct himself and guide him toward the right outlook on life.

It wasn't like Violet, where her apprentices were all older than her, each with their own responsibilities.

“Inheriting a title?” Zoey gave a wry smile, her eyes full of helplessness. “Your Grace, whether this title can even

be kept is still uncertain. And even if it is... | fear it will be more of a troublesburden.”

She sighed. “I'm not asking you to take him as an apprentice. | don’t care who teaches him, as long as he learns

how to defend himself. If something happens to him one day, at least he'll have the strength to face it-so he

won't be tortured to death in just a few days.”

Carissa was taken aback. “What kind of trouble are you anticipating? Why do you speak of such grim things,

Madam Zoey?”

Zoey absentmindedly adjusted her hairpin, feeling the coldness of the metal against her fingers, much like the

coldness in her heart. “I hope for peace, of course. But it never hurts to make long-term plans.”

Carissa had many doubts, but seeing Zoey wasn’t willing to elaborate, she decided not to press further. She

knew Zoey was always far-sighted, thinking many steps ahead, always hoping for the safety and well-being of

her children.

Carissa thought for a moment, then said, “I can’t teach him well myself, but | can ask Mr. Mullen to guide him

when he has time. You can give him smoney for his trouble. What do you think? Is your son studying at the

academy or in your family’s school?”

Zoey was overjoyed. “He's at the family school. He can cin the evenings. He's not particularly talented, but

he’s obedient, eager to learn, and not afraid of hardship. As for money, just tellhow much is needed. I'm not

stingy with it.”

“Alright.” Carissa nodded. “I'll speak to Mr. Mullen first. If he agrees, we can start as soon as tomorrow. But he

has strict rules and doesn’t easily accept apprentices, so it will be more of guidance than a formal

apprenticeship”
