"My great-grandfather had an Amber Worm, and now, it has been passed down to me." Willem Ginnari spread open his left hand.
In his palm was a mark the size of a sesame seed, which flickered and transformed into a snail about the size of a coin.
Crading the tiny snail, Willem boldly showcased it: "Its name is Round Shield, and it has been with our family for many years now. Back then, it was with Round Shield's defensive power that my great-grandfather survived a life-and-death crisis."
Having said that,
He looked eagerly at Russell: "Lord Russell, do you think, now that I have Round Shield, that I have a solid enough foundation to become a Dragon Domain Lord?"
Looking at the expectant Willem,
Russell no longer knew whether to call this child naive or a bit foolish. Such a precious object as the Amber Worm was being displayed right before a stranger, and one with enough strength to snatch it away, at that.
Fortunately, Russell harbored no greed.
