Pasipidas's face suddenly turned red.
Maximus looked at him with a smile: "I heard you have a good relationship with Luxina, meeting her several times in private after your injury healed—"
"I... I didn't! She only took care of me when I was sick, there's nothing between us—" Pasipidas denied loudly, his face flushed.
Maximus looked surprised: "I originally thought you liked her and was ready to give you my blessings, but it turns out that's not the case, what a pity!"
Pasipidas was taken aback, and despite his shyness, he immediately changed his tune: "Leader, I do like her, she... she likes me too, will you really bless us?!"
Pasipidas lowered his voice: "My father is opposed to this."
