He was filled with gratitude. Ever since he became a student in the Royal Academy, persistent-self doubts, lack of sleep, and time management assaulted him, to the point that it would not be surprising if he would be expelled after the next examination.
With his negative mindset, it would only be a matter of time before he would disappoint his master.
However, he never thought an opportunity for him to shine arrived.
As long as he could contribute to the future of the Empire, he was more glad to sacrifice himself.
He glanced at the future Emperor and bowed deeply, waiting for the Emperor to sacrifice him.
Myles smiled at him and did not extend the drama. Without hesitation, under the curious gazes of other knights, he clawed through the abdomen of the brand templar and grabbed his demonic core.
