Chapter 61: The Destroyer [2]
"The war…"
"A battle where the loser relinquishes a portion of the kingdom to the victor," Sam explained, his voice tinged with a hint of apprehension.
"Interesting..." Luke's eyes gleamed with amusement.
"And you both will be fighting?" Luke's gaze shifted between Sam and Isabelle, searching for confirmation. Sam nodded earnestly, his determination evident, while Isabelle chuckled softly, a confident smirk playing on her lips.
Luke found himself drawn into their resolve, eager to witness their skills and strength in battle. The anticipation of the approaching conflict fueled his excitement, as he prepared to witness the clash between kingdoms firsthand.
"I was supposed to participate, but with you here, how can I, Luke?" Isabelle's voice held a mix of disappointment and longing as she ran towards him, grasping his left hand and hugging it against her chest, seeking comfort and reassurance.
