So for better or for worse, Dante had pushed the boy on a path of struggle for power that he may never be able to truly recover from…
Dante just looked at the boy and patted his head.
"That hunger you feel right now, hold on to it.
Remember the feeling of having strength and vow to claim that power as your own! Without weapons or treasures, your goal should be to surpass the strength you felt today!
Clay, you're talented and I have high expectations for you. Don't disappoint me. "
As Dante spoke, Clay's eyes glowed with anticipation and pride.
A mighty Dragon Son, a man close to the royal family, had said that he actually admired his talent!
A mere peasant like Clay has never even dreamed of hearing these words from such an important individual.
To be valued so highly by such a person made Clay overjoyed, but it also put on a certain pressure.
