Capítulo 528: Virtue of the Strong (Part 2)

"Meaning?" Lith was starting to understand the Baron's way of life.

"You're my equal, but not because you too are a Baron, but because you earned your title. I've heard a lot about you and so have my people. You slew a wyvern as a boy and a dragon as a man. We respect strength here."

"It was just a man in dragon form." Lith pointed out.

"Strong and humble! Tell me, lad, when do you plan to start your hunt?"

"When you point me the way." Lith shrugged.

"See? That's what I'm talking about. Come, there's a lot to eat and even more to discuss before you leave. Failure's not an option."

Lith followed the Baron to the dining hall, where the Baroness and their children were having breakfast. The Lady stood up to give their guest a proper greeting, quickly followed by her children.

"Baron Verhen, this is my wife, Mirias and my children, Kotu and Iriel." The Baroness was a woman in her mid thirties, with blonde hair and green eyes.
