The Hero ignored Eris and the others and looked at Ackster.
"Forget about me. I'm more interested in you. You seem familiar."
The Hero approached Ackster with a sly and sneaky smile that didn't suit The Hero's stoic features or usual demeanor. Ackster furrowed his brow. He couldn't tell if The Hero found him familiar because he had met The Hero or because he had absorbed part of the world's Core.
"It's only natural that I'm familiar. I'm your father, after all."
"'...'"
Ackster pointed at The Hero with his sword.
"I think that's about enough."
The world power that The Hero had gathered in one place should be enough. Now, it was only a matter of killing The Hero again and making him relinquish control of that world power. It was something that was easier said than done.
But Ackster hadn't spent the last two years in an almost vegetative state for nothing.
