Roman Lionhart and Melo, his most trusted man, couldn't believe what they just heard—especially Roman. He knew better than anyone the condition his grandson was in. Just a month ago, resisting a small fraction of his aura had left Klaus in terrible shape. What Roman admired most about Klaus was his resilience. Despite his bad condition, Klaus never backed down while talking to him and still resisted his oppressive aura—a feat beyond anyone in Klaus's condition.
As much as he wanted to believe Erina's statement, he knew very well the capabilities of his other grandson, Alex Lionhart. Alex's growth was unprecedented in Lionhart's history. At just twelve years of age, he had already achieved a Green core. Nicholas Davoss, not part of the Lionhart direct or collateral line but from a vassal family, was equally a monster in Roman's eyes. So, for Erina to say that his sick grandson managed to outperform these two growing geniuses sounded like a bad joke in Roman's ears.
