Lance shook his head vigorously. He raised his hand to stop everyone from taking things further. "I'm sorry, but I have no intentions of ruling a kingdom. I even cut ties with the one I have in the West."
"That's only because you did not belong in Avancia," Ilwoo said. "Prince Lance, you were supposed to be the ruler of this entire continent."
"It may sound selfish, but I can't accept this offer," Lance said sternly. "My home has always been in the West. I do think that this place is great with so many good people, but I can't force myself to love something out of responsibility. I am an Adventurer first, and Adventurers are free."
Before Ilwoo could say anything more, Jung stepped in. "He's right, Ilwoo. We can't force him to take the responsibility. He, along with all the others from the West, has already helped us so much. Let's not foece ourselves into them."
