Like the day before, Rowena was now at the blue troop training ground to train her troops. However, when she arrived, she felt something odd. When she entered the training ground all the eyes of the people there were only on him and then whispering to each other.

Rowena began to wonder why they were doing this. Upon further investigation, it turned out that there had been rumors circulating throughout the palace that Rowena was in love with the deputy commander of the red army, Sir Damian and that their relationship as brother and sister that was seen in front of everyone was just a lie.

Rowena didn't feel anything at all about the rumours as she had previously been rumored to be Prince Helios' courtesan so that she could get the title of the only Grand Duchess in Sunverro. After all, in the future Rowena will surely be vilified more often just because of rumors that are not based on facts.

Rowena clapped her hands and tried to make a little noise so that everyone in the training ground would focus on her. "Come on, let's start the training now!"

All the troops there looked at Rowena with hateful looks, except for the people who followed Rowena in battle.

"Why should we listen to your orders? After all you are only a woman of unknown origin and have seduced Sir Damian and His Highness Helios so that you can become the commander of the blue army and become the Grand Duchess," said a man slightly older than Rowena.

"Right. We're all men, why should we follow orders from a lowly woman like you? There was never such a thing as a woman wielding a sword or getting a title unless she married a noble man. You'll only be a bad example to women at Sunverro."

"All your accomplishments during the war that everyone says are bullshit. How could a weak and fragile woman like yourself kill thousands of people ruthlessly and sadly. Even I think when you see someone bleed you will immediately faint from fear like other women."

"Stop dreaming of becoming our commander. You are just a woman who has to take care of and look after your husband and children and take care of your family's finances in the future. You'd better resign from this important position."

The people constantly berated Rowena with harsh words and belittled her. They had no idea Rowena's great struggle to get all the titles and titles and luxuries she now had.

Some of the blue troops who did not take part in the war were the children of nobles. They were all just children spoiled by wealth and power. They only know how to waste money and abuse power. That's why they don't take part in the war because they are just spoiled children who don't have the courage to defy death at all.

Rowena smiled slyly at the insults and cursing uttered by the people she thought were big stupid babies. Honestly, from the start she didn't really care about what people thought of him. But the more she heard it, the more annoyed she became. Rowena is a person who doesn't really care what other people think of her, but she gets very angry when people spread lies about her.

Rowena looked at one by one the people who had just insulted her. She smirked back at them all. "How about we play a game? If I lose, I will step out of the position of commander of the blue army and hand back my title as Grand Duchess to His Majesty the Emperor. But if you lose, you must follow all my orders from now on. How are you interested? ?"

The armies that didn't participate in the battle nodded their heads as a sign that they agreed to a game that they still didn't know the rules of the game right now.

"I will only play this game with troops who do not take part in the war. So for those who participate in the war, you can stand on the edge of the field and see the game we will play," said Rowena.

The people who took part in the war who were also ordinary people immediately lifted their feet from the field and stood on the edge while watching the game play.

After all the people who took part in the war finished moving from place to place, Rowena began to explain the procedures and rules in the game.

"The gameplay is very simple. You all have to dodge my dagger for an hour and don't let your body get scratched by the sharp tip of my dagger. If there's one person left who doesn't get hit by my dagger at all then all of you will be deemed to have won this game, but if you If all of you get a scratch from my dagger then you will be considered a loser," explained Rowena.

They all laughed lightly with the game proposed by Rowena. According to them, it was certain that victory would be on their side no matter what. Their opponent was only a weak woman who wouldn't even be able to throw a dagger on target according to them. Surviving for an hour is very easy.

Now they were ready in their respective positions as well as Rowena who was standing steadily holding two daggers in her hands. Beside him there were also many daggers that were ready to be thrown at the enemy for the next hour.

Now the game has started. Rowena threw the daggers in her hands one by one at the annoying men. Then the men tried to dodge the dagger's attack. This continued for up to an hour according to Rowena's time. If she want to win this game, Rowena has to throw her dagger until it hits her target of fifty-five people.

After an hour of playing the game, it finally ended with fifty-five people being scratched by Rowena's daggers on their necks. The wound can be said to be deep enough that it can leave scars when it heals.

"According to the rules at the beginning, I won this game," said Rowena happily.

Everyone who followed the game looked very annoyed at their own defeat. They started blaming each other.

"You know what the reason you can lose to me even though there are more of you? The reason is because you underestimate me as a woman too much. Even though other women are weak, it doesn't mean I am weak like them."

"The wounds you have received now will serve as a memento for your own stupidity and your breach of duty as a knight. As a knight you are required to use your hands and strength more to protect the country and the imperial family instead of using your mouth to spread rumors that's useless," added Rowena.

The people lowered their heads. They seem to have started to realize and be ashamed of their behavior.

"If you make the same mistake again like now then I will make sure your neck won't hurt like now but your neck won't be connected to your body anymore," Rowena threatened with her cold gaze.

"Keep that in mind." Rowena walked out of the blue troop training ground.

Rowena stomped hard as she walked. Arriving at the entrance gate of the blue army training ground a man greeted him with a warm smile on his face.

"Hello, Lady Erica. I am very impressed with what you did to your troops. They really deserve it."
