16. The Story Happening Three Years Ago

Translator: Serena Yang

Three years ago?

Cardis certainly remembered what happened three years ago. The beasts raided the borders of the Sodir Empire and the army who were patrolling on the border could not beat them, so they asked Blue Wolf for help. At that time, Blue Wolf was on a military manoeuvre nearby, so the Crown Prince directly decided to help.

However, they ignored something important.

The beasts prepared well for their sneak attack and they also outnumbered Blue Wolf soldiers. It was a fierce battle and Blue Wolf won very beautifully, but they also suffered great casualties, and Bai You's father was one of them.

It was an internal process for Blue Wolf to visit the relatives of the deceased soldiers to show their condolence and recognition. However, the people who were in charge of this did not have the time, so Cardis took over the task.

Hence, Bai You knew Cardis but he didn't know Cardis' true identity. He thought Cardis was a member of Blue Wolf as well.

"I remember now. Thank you for reminding me," Cardis walked over to Bai You and reached out to touch his head. Bai You’s mother passed away early and the Empire was paying for his living expenses. In fact, his expenses were given by Blue Wolf. The finance department of Blue Wolf would transfer the living expenses into Bai You's terminal every month.

Cardis still remembered that three years ago when he first saw Bai You, Bai You was only a small and thin boy. After he knew about his father's death, he tried his best to hold his tears.

However, as Cardis turned around, he heard Bai You burst into a cry that could shake the whole planet.

Sodir Empire had an orphanage specially set up for children who lost their parents in battles, and there were specially arranged workers to take care of these children. As Bai You’s father was a soldier from Blue Wolf which was led by the Crown Prince directly, he received the highest-level care at the orphanage.

Three years ago, Cardis asked Bai You if he had any wishes.

Bai You said he wanted to be a soldier. It would be better if he could enter Blue Wolf where his father once served the army.

However, Bai You was an ordinary person who wasn’t qualified to enter Blue Wolf. First of all, he could not pass the physical fitness test as he had a weak body. However, Bai You still wanted to go to Blue Wolf, because he felt that only in the army could he feel he was a step closer to his father.

To enter Blue Wolf, one must go to a military school.

Although there were five military schools in Sodir Empire, Imperial Military College was undoubtedly the best of them.

After Cardis told Bai You's situation to Shingen, Shingen ordered Bai You to be admitted to the Imperial Military College. Only the Imperial Military College had a Catering Department, and in the Catering Department, it wouldn’t be a problem if the students were gifted people or ordinary people. What’s more, no gifted people would like to be a dietician in Catering Department. In their eyes, it was a disgrace to their honour and the honour of their families.

It was natural that Cardis couldn't remember Bai You, for three years ago, Bai You was really a small and thin boy, just like the current Lian Nuo.

Therefore, Cardis couldn't help but look at Lian Nuo again and compare Lian Nuo to Bai You. They were really different in terms of figures.

"Why are you looking at me?" Lian Nuo asked. As a scientist who had lived for many years, Lian Nuo didn't like others to size him up and down.

However, Lian Nuo took another look at Bai You. He was very satisfied with Bai You’s white and chubby body.

"Don’t… don’t mention it. I’m glad that you can recognize me." Bai You was a little startled by Cardis’ words. He was so happy that Cardis could still recognize him.

"Since Master Lian has woken up, I need to talk to you about what we are going to do next." This was the reason why Cardis came to find Lian Nuo. His time was very precious as he was the No.1 Butler of the Imperial Family.

Lian Nuo nodded and looked at Bai You. "I will come to you later."
