"I would like to be a part of this expedition, Wren Stasis, Amethyst-class," Zeno said with a straight face.
Then, laughter from the crowd reverberated in the area, and some of the people started to throw harsh words at Zeno.
"Are you even listening earlier?" said a man a few distances away from the front of the line.
"He's a freaking clown," another man commented, adding fuel to the fire.
Though Zeno ignored them all and retained his sight on the knight in front of him.
"I very much admire your bravery, but we can't let you join this expedition without meeting the requirements. Next!" The knight yelled.
But Zeno stayed still, and a smile curled on his lips.
"Four hundred forty-three," he said.
"What?" The knight knitted his brows and exclaimed.
"That's the exact number of people inside this town right now, and one hundred seven of them are children," Zeno answered, still smiling.
