And not only that, some training equipment that is intended to train dexterity still have to go through until they get to the end and can be said to reach the finish.
Hearing Alvero's challenge, Deanda immediately revealed a sweet smile. It felt like he felt so challenged to see the equipment for the dexterity exercise that it was as if he was calling him to give it a try.
“Good Your Majesty. We compete. Who is the fastest and wins, must grant one request that the losing side must not refuse Deanda said as she slightly moved her lips, making Alvero chuckle.
“Haist... What else do you want from me? Without a fight, I will definitely grant whatever your request is. No need to wait for you to defeat me.” Hearing that, Deanda immediately smiled.
“What is Your Majesty afraid if this time I win?” Hearing Deanda's temptation, Alvero's hazel eyes were slightly rounded as Deanda looked so confident.
“Alright, I accept your challenge! Just don't cry if this time I win the game again.” Alvero said as he took the phone out of his pocket, and handed it to Erich, followed by Deanda.
“Erich! Bring me some change of clothes and shoes for both of us!” Alvero immediately ordered Erich to take their needs in order to carry out their plan to compete agility.
Hearing and seeing Alvero and Deanda's plan to compete dexterity makes Marcello can only smile amused and happy.
Your Majesty and Deanda, it's really a good match if it's a martial matter. Ah, no. not just in terms of self-defense. The two of them are a perfect couple in every way. I hope their relationship will always be as compact as it seems at the moment. Gracetian was so lucky to have such a great king and empress and so loved his people and country like the two of them. May the Gracetian prosper under the leadership of both of them.
Marcello said in his heart with great expectation of Alvero and Deanda as the current top leaders of the Gracetian.

“Are you ready sweety? It seems that until this moment you still feel so curious about your defeat at that time. I don't cheat, you know.” Alvero whispered softly into Deanda's ear who could only smile.
Deanda knows for sure Alvero's ability. Today Deanda wants to do this not because he believes he can beat Alvero. He knows for sure that he will not be able to beat Alvero.
But today, Deanda feels so happy to have the opportunity to practice dexterity with her husband. The thing he had wanted to do for a long time was to practice martial arts with Alvero. That way Deanda hopes to learn a lot from Alvero who he knows is great in martial arts.
“Are you ready now sweety?” Alvero whispered again, and was immediately answered by a firm nod by Deanda.
“Uncle, we're ready. Please give both of us a cue so we can start.” Hearing Alvero's command, with a smile, Marcello walked over immediately while carrying a gun in his hand to start the match between Alvero and Deanda.
“Breet…. One... two... three!” Marcello shouted loudly giving his cues.
“Door!” The sound of gunfire that sounded loud, instantly made both Alvero and Deanda move quickly.
The members of the special forces team who were initially training inevitably turned to the source of the sound as soon as they heard the gunfire where they knew there should be no agility training schedule today. They want to see what's already happening outside, on a pitch where they used to practice dexterity.
Marcello who saw how the members of the special forces who were training suddenly flocked closer could only let them this time. If it were to be honest, who would not be curious to see how the king and empress did such a thing, which would definitely not just anyone get a chance to witness such a rare event today.

“Come! Comeing! Come!” The voices of the members of the special forces who were cheering Alvero and Deanda sounded lively from the moment they started the match.
Several times Alvero deliberately reduced his speed so that Deanda would not fall far behind him.
“Yeahhhh!” A loud shout was immediately heard as Alvero reached the finish a few seconds earlier than Deanda.
As soon as he reached the finish, Alvero immediately turned his body around, so that when Deanda caught up with him at the finish Alvero quickly moved towards him, to greet him, and immediately hugged him tightly, made Deanda laugh out loud with a face that looked so happy.
“Please Your Majesty, Empress.” Erich, who was waiting at the finish with Marcello, immediately handed a glass bottle filled with mineral water to his two employers.
“Thanks Erich.” With breath still wheezing, Deanda said as she grabbed the bottle from Erich's hand who immediately nodded her head at Deanda with her flat face, even inwardly, in her heart, Erich was pleased to see how agile and skilled Alvero and Deanda were in solving all those obstacles.
For a while later, Alvero and Deanda deliberately sat on a grass field near the training ground to rest.
“Your dexterity really should be thumbs up Your Majesty.” Deanda said as she again gulped down the mineral water in her hand.
Hearing the praise from Deanda, Alvero could only smile with a proud face.
“But I disagree less if Your Majesty purposely relented because of me.” Alvero immediately laughed at Deanda's words which he said in a protesting tone.
Deanda was not unaware that Alvero had deliberately reduced his speed several times so that he was not far away. Although Alvero still won, but the distance to reach the finish line is only a few seconds. Deanda is confident that if Alvero does not reduce his speed, he will definitely be left behind by Alvero in a matter of minutes, not in seconds.
“Hah! You are just there! Did I lose today? Everyone knows I'm the winner. How can you say I give up? If I really give up, you're the winner, not me.” Alvero said with a smile.
Your Majesty, it has always been like that. Trying to hold back and give up without having to make him lose. My man is the best. I love you my Al.
Deanda said inwardly as she glanced at Alvero who could only hide his smile looking at the amber eyes of his wife who was looking at him with a look of admiration.
Hearing Alvero's reply who remained adamant about not admitting that he had relented, Deanda simply smiled as she took a deep breath. If only they were not in a public place, it seems Deanda would not mind giving Alvero a gift of a friendly kiss.
A gift to Alvero would be far more valuable than a golden trophy.
