Lucas tensed, his eyes squinting slightly. He realized what I had specifically emphasized among the things I had told him and sighed.
"The current king, you say..."
Lucas quickly deduced the meaning behind what I said. Then he looked around, but this time the look in his eyes was slightly different. His previous blank, shocked look had given way to a slightly more sober one. He had come to his senses, so much so that I was sure he wouldn't do anything as reckless as he had just done. After all, he was a smart person.
"I'm going to fix this... No, I'm going to fix all the places that look like this."
He was also determined and pursued his goals, like Adrian. At least like the current Adrian.
I said nothing and turned away again, but Lucas didn't finish his speech.
