Thor was momentarily stunned, then quickly shook his head in refusal.
Just as Thor was about to refuse, Count Engle's voice sounded again.
"Don't refuse just yet. You might not know this, but your Uncle Marshall is likely to soon break through as an Earth Knight. Going to the Northern Province might help you with some matters as well."
His words were calm.
Yet, it was this calm tone that instantly made Thor's eyes widen.
"Father, is... is what you're saying true?"
Thor was genuinely surprised at this moment.
It was set that there were only two Earth Knights, so how is another one suddenly appearing?
Although it's only about to break through and not yet broken through.
But that's surprising enough.
"It is indeed true. Most likely within the next few months."
Count Engle nodded, reaffirming it.
"This!"
Hearing his father's confirmation, Thor was at a loss for words.
And, as if understanding Thor's confusion.
"Are you puzzled?"
Count Engle chuckled softly.
