Michael tried to keep a cool, not worried look on his face, but being cornered like this was something that made him highly uncomfortable.
He didn't know how to respond, especially to the request of the King, a request that he couldn't fulfill.
Even if George by some miracle was able to be Champion of the Year 1 non-magic sect, he won't be able to come close to even the 7-circle magician that they might be up against.
"Sir Michael… We need help, no… I need help. These people, they don't know what violence is like, they don't know the horrors of war, we have been peaceful for decades and I don't want them to even see the day that they would be enslaved by the consequences of these fights."
Michael's heart sank as he thought about the innocent citizens of Veridiana and their benevolent King, he could tell that he cared, and so he couldn't help, but give hope. "I will try to convince the Great Wizard."
