"I apologize for my behavior earlier but... I am truly thankful for what you have done!" The Viscount bowed deeply even as he was sitting on the couch.
Though Luka was planning to use this moment to selfishly earn something for himself, he couldn't help but become touched by Viscount Slanid's gratitude. He never considered himself a good person, but hearing someone's appreciation made Luka feel warm inside.
"As such," The Viscount lifted his head and made 'eye contact' with Luka, even though he can't really see his eyes, " I would like to grant you anything you wish for as long as it is within my power."
Here it is! The reward that Luka has been expecting. He thought hard about what to ask for. A weapon? No, he already has a good sword in working condition. Perhaps he could ask the Viscount to introduce him to a mage that can teach him about magic? Luka definitely felt tempted by that choice.
