Holding a wide squat, the most basic exercise, proved challenging for Eliza as her legs began to burn after only fifteen minutes.


    "Still holding up okay!" Nn asked, noticing the sheen of sweat on her forehead.


    Eliza gritted her teeth, her voice firm despite the strain, "Tean do it.


    Nn watched her closely, correcting her posture when needed and watching for any signs of strain on her face. He remained neutral, offering neither encouragement nor discouragement.


    As another fifteen minutes passed, Nn asked, "Still doing okay?"


    Eliza, arms trembling as she held them up, bit down hard and forced out, T... can." Her limbs felt heavy as lead, but she refused to give in.


    Surprise flickered in Nn''s eyes, but he nodded again, acknowledging her determination. When almost another fifteen minutes had passed, Nn said, "Alright, that''s enough for now. Take a break."


    Eliza, her face and hair drenched in sweat, was determined to push herself harder. "I can still


    "No, you can''t," Nn interrupted, gently tapping her head. "Take it slow and steady. Don''t overdo it."


    Upon understanding. Eliza ceased her insistence, but her attempt to move resulted in a near fall as her stiff body betrayed her.


    "Careful!" Nn''s sharp voice came just in time. He''d been watching her closely and caught her before she could fall. "Easy does it- bring your arms and legs slowly. There''s no rush," he said, his voice steady and reassuring.


    With his help. Eliza stretched her arms back stiffly, extended her body slightly, and carefully lowered herself onto the stone bench.


    "You''re fitter than I expected! We''ll ramp up the training a bit tomorrow, but make sure you get a bed so you''re not sore in the morning." Nn advised.


    Eliza chuckled. "There''s no need to worry, Your Highness. I''ll recover quickly." od night''s sleep and stretch before


    She was practically invincible after soaking in the magical water for so long. She secretly wished Nn would push ber harder during their training. After all, with the magical water readily avable in her pocket farm, even the most grueling workout would be washed away by morning.


    Nn was oblivious to Eliza''s secret, carefully tailoring her training n to avoid overexertion and potential injury. However, he soon detected something amiss.


    Nn quickly learned that Eliza''s remarkable recovery wasn''t just talk. He pushed her harder each day, but no matter how tiring the training, she was always back, full of energy and ready for more. Realizing this, Nn knew he could push Eliza to her limits without holding back.


    "Dedication can ovee any obstacle. Let''s see if we can elevate your abilities," he said, a hint of challenge in his voice. He then redesigned her training n. This time, he based Eliza''s training entirely on the ck g''s grueling military prograin.


    She was pushed to her absolute lumit daily, her muscles aching in protest, but the results were undeniable. Eliza''s dedication to training-bined with the effects of the magical water, led to a rapid in rease in her stamina and strength.


    Nn suddenly asked one day, "Make sure you keep up with this basic training. By the way, do you have a preferred weapon!
