“Whoever wins these hted by the noble lord holding the tournament This is how the Sith Empire discovers and raises talented warriors”
“Even if I win the tournaht of the noble lord holding the tournament without a say in the matter?”
Leton calmly shook his head
“Why would I recommend this method to you if that were the case?”
“The winner of the tournaiven to you as award, you will have to serve under the noble lord, but if you do not accept the land you can becoht and choose to serve whoever you wish”
Luke’s face brightened up
“How practical Why would the noble lord do that, when he doesn’t have anything to gain?”

“An excellent attitude Good I will give you the specific directions to the viscountcy”
Luke and Kurotan headed towards Jabel viscountcy as soon as they left the border outpost
“You are quite impressive”
“What?”
“How can you so easily convince the officer of a country on which you are not on good terms with?”
“Oh that? I definitely had to keep on my toes and use my head”

“Yes, but it will be you participating, not me”
Kurotan’s eyes widened
“How so?”
“It’s not an easy thing to change your nationality In addition, I have a loving and understanding fadom I do not wish to betray them”
