"Well, you don't have to worry about that witty son of mine. He managed to survive an assassination from the Reaper's Guild."
"Assassination from the Reaper's Guild?" Lutz gasped in shock.
"That's right." Regulus was feeling smug.
"Not just an ordinary assassin, I assume?"
"Not. The best of the best."
Regulus guffawed.
Meanwhile, Lutz was trembling in disbelief.
He shot his Master a questioning look.
In the sixty years he worked under Regulus, he was so close to him that he forgot formality.
Regulus also did not want Lutz to act so formally to him, for formality acted as the distance between them.
He appreciated Lutz very much, to the point he was almost his second father.
That was how much he respected him.
Furthermore, why was Lutz given the position of a regent, who managed the affairs of the kingdom in the king's stead, because he had more experience and knowledge than him?
