Chapter 385 - Way of the Sword

Not minding the shocked and surprised gazes of them, the old man, Sir Arthur kept his bowing posture, whilst explaining his previous exclamation in a bit more detail.

"I know. Rest assured, I know that my request is outrageous. Why would a man of my standing be so desperate to find a worthy successor? It is, after all, a perfectly reasonable question to ask."

He slowly lifted his head, looking up from the ground and matching the befuddled, confused look of the golden-eyed duo. 

"If you would allow me, I will explain." Sir Arthur said, keeping his subservient posture, which as the seconds went by, were more and more embarrassing. After all, this man was a living legend, the literal hero of many children's stories… and now, he was bowing in front of two brats?!

If people were to know about this, public outrage was sure to follow.

Scarlet, unable to take this any more, crossed over the table and helped up the respectable elder.
