"... Someone who uses his own strengths for the sake of country and people."
"Ha."
Perugius sighs at such a bland answer.
"Ariel. Even he gave a better answer.
... But concern for his people alone is not enough to be king.
Indeed. Kaunis wasn't just concerned with his own people. With some help, he managed to pacify the entire Asura.
Strength? Why would strength matter to a king?
You never thought about it? Why did a country raise a fool to be king? Was it really for the good of the country?"
"..."
Ariel looks a mix of sadness and regret.
What does Perugius want Ariel to say? I don't know.
Well, it's fine if I don't know.
I don't plan to be king.
Maybe Perugius just wants to know Ariel's resolution and personality, so he asked a question without answers.
Even so, a king?
What do you want to do, what do you want to be?
