"No," Lyrian stated without any hesitation.
The kid's expression immediately turned disappointed. "Please! I beg you to do me this favor!"
"I already said no kid. I'm doing this mission alone," Lyrian exclaimed. It didn't feel odd for him to call the kid a kid even though he was technically younger, since in mental age he was a bit older.
"I want you to trust me. I won't let you down. I need to have some sort of direction to where I'm going, instead of wandering around without a clue."
The kid paused, desperately speaking.
"If you do this for me, I promise to not fall below your expectations." He had genuineness in his eyes as he spoke.
Lyrian also paused for a moment before retorting. "I understand your frustration, kid. However... I can't allow you to come on different investigation quests and things like that."
At that moment, Lyrian's gaze suddenly shifted to a more serious one.
