"Father, please allow me to face the Gobling King alone," Lucen spoke with a lot of confidence and a bit of eagerness to it.
Vardon, whose face was mostly always stoic, looked at his son with a quiet stare. The soldiers near them were still attacking, but also trying to listen to the conversation. The two locked eyes for a few seconds before Vardon spoke.
"Why?"
It was a single word, but Lucen understood what Vardon was trying to ask. Even Lucen himself did not understand why, but for some reason, after gaining new skills and seeing a new monster he had never seen in the game, his gamer blood was boiling.
He wanted to face the new monster and see what kind of moves it would use, what lines it would say.
"... I won't lie to you, Father. I just want to fight the Goblin King," Lucen answered.
"Hahaha! That's the spirit, young lord." Thalos clapped his hands.
