Konrad spent the remainder of the day alongside Krann to restructure the resources assigned to the legion, the hidden forces, and the state army while getting accustomed to his feeble body. At dusk, he headed into the Official Research Department where the former dowager Amalia conducted experiments on various human subjects to analyze the root of their bloodlines.
Lost in her experiments, Amalia wouldn't even have noticed the arrival of the new entrant were it not for her fellow researchers and assistants dropping on their knees to proclaim:
"Greetings, your majesty!"
As those words, echoed, mild surprise flashed within her eyes, and she spun to lock her attention on Konrad who'd now stepped in. Just like the others, she dropped on her knees.
"Greetings, your majesty!"
"You may rise."
