Assassination was all about planning. Careful, meticulous planning.
This was what Luther had been taught by his father, before he had had to leave the sect.
He had spent his whole life inculcating this into his every action, and now, the plan was to use that to make his father proud.
Over all these years, he had never blamed the man. He only revered him, and was eternally grateful for being taken in and cared for when he had nobody.
Now, it was his chance to pay him back.
Still, he also had an obligation to the King of Lanthanor, whom he admired greatly.
It was that obligation which had led him to listen to the man when he had requested that Luther underperform in the first few rounds, for the good of Lanthanor.
He had heard the rumors, so he knew what the king was up to, which made him feel like chuckling.
