"...I order Ernesto Oliva to help our kingdom prevent the dragon from dominating the south-east sea. KING ROJARD NIDEA." Duke Allan Ayam elegantly read the message from the king. He acted as if he was reading good news in front of the fuming marquis.
"ridiculous!" Jose Oliva shouted after hearing the content of the scroll. He stood up and looked down at the duke, who was calmly rolling the scroll back.
"Calm down, Marquis," Duke Ayam said, unruffled.
"Calm down! Are you serious? You have a son too, Duke Ayam! Do you think you will be happy sending your son to this kind of ridiculous order?" Jose Oliva exclaimed, his blood boiling.
"Father." Ernesto called his father by pulling his sleeve to ask him to sit down beside him again. "Is our king stupid enough to just send me?"
"W-well…" Jose Oliva calmed down a little bit because of his son's calm demeanor.
He pointed out, "It seems like the Duke is not done talking yet."
