Looking at the crowd shouting his name, Maximus only smiled.
No words could comfort his people more than his actions.
They didn't need sweet words but action to soothe their souls.
"You should go back inside first; leave this to me..." Maximus said to Skye and the others.
The Emperor of the Westle Empire had already noticed him.
Although he was confident in protecting his family at such close range, it's better to be safe than sorry.
"Then be careful." Seeing Maximus's determined look, Skye just nodded.
"Good luck, Dad. Give that hateful man a good beating!" Asha said, cheering him on.
"Grandpa, smack his face for me!" Lila also cheered.
"Come back quickly..."
After they retreated inside the barrier.
Maximus turned his gaze toward the Emperor of the Westle Empire, who teleported before him.
"So you're the famed emperor who started this era," Khan slowly said.
