"....If I say you can become one of us, you 'will' become one of us!"
There was a certain firmness to the Queen Mother's voice that honestly struck Alexander, it felt like he was speaking with a true, regal queen. And then a certain part of him felt quite hot as Seelima declared in a regal, absolute tone,
"The same goes for the court, Alexander. They also hoo-haa-ed to no end when I was to be conferred. But ultimately I still did! Because I was persistent… always persistent. You need to be the same Alexander… be a bit more pushy in life. Or else it will be very hard to get the things you want."
Alexander lightly smiled at the advice, a bit amusedly chuckling to himself at its apparent contradiction, 'Isn't it just like now… how I am being pushed by you? Haha.'
In addition, he also had a hard time figuring out why the Queen Mother was being so insistent on his accepting this offer.
Was it simply out of sheer goodwill?
