Chapter 1001: The best route

Becker was… relieved. He couldn't help but feel that way, since Erik showed everything but being a tyrant.

It was true that Becker became again Frant's general, commander, and leader.

But in truth, Erik was the one who really held the reins of everything.

The army he provided was stronger than any army Frant, or any other country, ever had.

Yes, the young man had the power to conquer the world, yet he showed no desire to do so.

Instead, he allowed Becker and the others to decide based on their own judgment, never imposing his will upon them.

Despite his strength and the vast army of Chimaeric Demons at his command, Erik was not a warmonger, nor did he lust for power and control as many others might have in his position.

But relief wasn't the only thing he felt. He also had a sense of pride.

Erik was Lucius' son, and it was well known at that point that he wanted Erik to join him when he first learned he awakened.
