Ves was genuinely happy for Venerable Lanie.
She had found a new purpose in her life. She had also managed to make an excellent first impression of her new backer.
Although the Mace of Retaliation did not exaggerate when he shared his intentions to push Lanie past her limits, at least he had her best interests at heart. That was more than he could say for many other potential employers.
If the Mace truly regarded Lanie as the heir that could possibly fulfill his deepest desire on his behalf, then he would definitely not exploit her and discard her later on. That completely went against his implied goal.
Ves no longer had to torture himself with concerns on whether Lanie found a good employer. She had pretty much won the lottery today.
Before Ves was ready to leave the two alone so that they could discuss arrangements that had nothing to do with the Larkinson Clan, he offered the lucky expert pilot one more parting gift.
"Lanie."
