'I can't even sense any form of presence from him,' Asher thought, his gaze fixed on the man before him.
'Also, why is everyone in this world so tall?' His thoughts spiraled. 'Father is taller than Malrik, who's already eight feet in height. Then there's Cassandra, who stands at seven feet. And now, this man is nearly seven feet tall as well. Meanwhile, I'm already 6'6"… and I'm just eighteen.'
With that internal sigh, Asher took a step forward and calmly seated himself in the chair opposite the Commander.
"Nothing serious, Commander," Asher began evenly. "I just need your help with something."
"Hoo…" the Commander let out a deep hum. "Did someone make a move against the Tenth Sun?"
Though his voice remained calm, Asher's Omni Perception picked up the subtle shifts in their bodies. Both the Commander and Cassandra had slightly adjusted their stances, small, precise movements that suggested they were instantly ready to act, should the need arise.
