Hearing Derik's response, Lucien and the army below were stunned. Even an emperor will tremble when forced to fight such a large army with so many external factors limiting their power. In such a situation only an anomaly can save them and yet, this youth spoke down on them like they are nothing!
How bold and cocky can this man be!
Lucien was going to speak more but seeing the utter confidence in Derik's eyes he couldn't help but remember Emperor Fei! No matter the odds and even when Derik fought against him, Emperor Fei never showed any form of fear or concern. He remained calm and almost indifferent in all situations. He created an invincible image in the hearts of all those who believed in him and even in death he could be considered a badass!
"I have been stupid all this while" Lucien laughed as he slapped his face with a wide grin on his face.
"You finally understand what it means to be strong" Derik said with a slight grin on his face.
