Bab 205: Royal Gala (7)

After felicitating the Tiger Beastman and the Elf, it was Luke who went up on the stage and the Emperor's smile instantly returned.

"Ho? Aren't you the one called SkyLion?" The Emperor asked in a pleasant surprise, as Luke felt mildly intrigued as to how the Emperor knew his name.

"Have you heard about me, my Lord?" Like asked curiously as the Emperor looked towards his counselor and nodded.

"What do you say counselor? Do we know the child Principal Wood has been describing as the best talent he has seen in the last 20 years?" The Emperor asked jokingly, before looking towards Luke and laughing.

"Your Principal talks very highly of you…. He expects you to uphold the honor of the Royal Knight Academy by winning the Grand Tournament, so do your best!" The Emperor said, as he awarded Luke with his token and prize money.
