"So, let's start with the benefits," he said, his hands gesturing animatedly. "Being in the military is a heroic action. You are using your power to make sure that your country remains safe. This is one of the most noble things you could do."

Arthur nodded slightly, though he remained silent, letting James talk.

"Secondly," James went on, "your talents will be put to good use. As a solo player, you will never be able to maximize your potential. No matter how strong you think you are, without the proper guidance, you will stagnate."

Arthur's lips twitched. Stagnate? That was a bold claim.

James didn't notice and kept talking.

"The military has counselors—experts trained specifically to help people like us. They will analyze your talents, your skills, and your playstyle, and help you grow in ways you never imagined." He smiled. "It's honestly incredible. I owe everything to them."

Arthur stayed quiet, observing James carefully.
