Luke opened his eyes after closing them from frustration and saw the crown prince staring at him weirdly. They were now inside Mount Ceb. Luke ignored Lance's stares and started to look around, as expected of the crown prince, he wasted no time preparing, almost all of what is needed was already prepared here. Luke looked around with amazement and look behind the crown prince and saw a wide plain with tents and all sorts of tools being transported by mages.
"It looks like your highness has prepared thoroughly."
Lance shrugged his shoulders like it was nothing.
"It's only natural to be this at least prepared."
Lance answered in a blank tone. He then looked at the unfamiliar face behind Luke.
"And this is...?"
Luke looked back to where Lance was staring and saw Liam looking back at them cluelessly. Lance then introduced Liam.
"Ah, this is Liam. He is my..... Personal knight."
Luke hesitated to say the last words but thankfully he managed to say it causing Liam to smile brightly at him. Lance look at the two and spoke like he was amused.
"Ho? So even people like you have personal knights."
Luke secretly rolled his eyes.
"....Well, he forced to be my knight and I can't say no so..."
Lance looked at Liam and saw his innocent face. Lance then asked Liam in confusion.
"Are you sure you want to be this guy's personal knight?"
Liam answered diligently with a bright smile.
"Yes!"
Lance just stared at Liam's bright face with a blank stare.
'...He is too innocent. Did Luke really not forced him?'
The prince had a look of disbelief and doubt but turned to normal and looked at Klein. He just decided to ignore the two and focus on the most important person among them. Lance offered his hand and Klein shook it with gratitude.
"I'm looking forward to working with you, Sir Klein."
Klein smiled.
"Same here, your highness."
"Ah! I forgot!"
Lance then looked at Luke who suddenly spoke with a confused expression. Luke ignored Lance's stares and looked at Klein.
"Sir Klein, please show it to his highness."
Klein seemed to have realized what he was talking about then nodded and passed the folded blueprint to the confused crown prince. Lance then asked in confusion.
"What is this?"
Luke answered.
"Just open it, your highness."
Lance looked at Luke suspiciously before opening the blueprint. He then looked at the blueprint with shock once he took a look inside.
"What is this...?"
Luke answered curtly while shrugging.
"It's an iron giant, your highness."
Lance looked at Luke's calm face with disbelief. He then sighed in defeat and turned his back towards them.
"Let's talk inside."
Luke nodded and followed Lance. They then entered a large tent. Before going in, Luke turned around to Liam.
