"At ease. So, what is it that you want to discuss with me, since we had to meet with each other?" Aldrian asked as he picked up the cup of tea already prepared on the table in front of him. He sipped it while looking at Vars, who seemed nervous and restless.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Vars suddenly kowtowed to Aldrian.
"Master, please let me join your empire!" he shouted, which made Aldrian raise his eyebrows in surprise. He then smiled, finding this amusing, and placed the cup of tea back on the table.
"What makes you suddenly want to join me? Does that mean you have finally chosen to betray your family entirely? Is it because of the group from the Barevisk family that came to this continent?" he asked.
