CH341 Unexpected Response

"Alex Fury, will you like to join the Order of Valour?"
Of all the possibilities Alex had deduced for why the two royals summoned him here, this was one of them he had thought of. Even so, Archilles's sudden offer caught him slightly off guard.
He had dismissed this scenario because it made little sense that someone would personally invite an Intermediate-ranked professional to a realm—or subspace—where even Legends were known to fall.
Surprise aside, Alex immediately knew what his answer would be.
"I'm sorry," he said calmly, "but I cannot accept your invitation."
Archilles blinked in surprise.
"I think you misunderstand," the man said after a moment. "I'm not asking you to fight for the Order immediately. The Order of Valour takes in young talents and nurtures them. Only after you've become a Saint will you have any formal obligation to serve."
