Kermu was one of the most talented youngsters of the Revgen Empire, and except Nurvey, he didn't know of anyone else at his age or below that surpassed his level until that moment when he noticed that Yale was like Nurvey and was also far more powerful than him.
Kermu knew that Nurvey had trained with the Emperor Revgen, so he wasn't surprised that Nurvey left him behind despite Nurvey being younger than him, but Yale was even younger than Nurvey, and as far as Kermu knew, he didn't have anyone teaching him.
