After some careful consideration, Noel made his decision. "I'm going."
"Young Master…" Dimitri frowned. He was worried about Noel's life, considering the place was extremely dangerous.
Noel shook his head and said, "I'm going to assemble all the best fighters I can get. At the very least, we should be able to withstand their onslaught."
"I—" Dimitri wanted to say something, but Noel immediately corrected him. "You are going to have a different mission. Your task is not to protect me, but to investigate the Plant Lord."
Dimitri was stunned because he couldn't accept this task over his young master's safety. After all, Dimitri had acknowledged Noel as his master, but because of the last test, he was still forbidden to refer to him as such. So, there was no way he could agree if his master wanted to go to a dangerous place without his protection.
