Luke lowered his gaze to the strewn battleground below him. His eyes began to scan the area for any recognized faces. When he spotted Spencer staring up at him with surprise, his gaze came to a halt. He appears to be entirely still. Luke only smiled at Spencer before shifting his gaze to another familiar face: Liam.
Luke riveted his gaze on Liam, who is also staring at him, puzzled. Liam was both surprised and perplexed as he stared at Luke's blank face, which continued to stare at him.
• B-brother...
Liam frowned and flinched. He then smacked his head with an irritated expression.
"You brat, you'd better keep your head down."
• Luke... Brother...
"Fuck, I'm warning you, stay down."
•...
Liam massaged his head and groaned. He then returned his gaze to Luke, who was still staring at him as though monitoring him, which made Liam uneasy. Luke seems to be attempting to read him, which also irritates Liam.
Luke only stared at Liam, his face expressionless. Although he may not appear to be disturbed by anything, Luke's mind is beginning to ask countless questions, causing his head to ache. Liam pounding his own head and mumbling to himself was fully visible to Luke. Luke can't hear what he's saying, but he can tell something is bothering him.
'Today will undoubtedly be a tough day for me...'
Luke sighed deeply and closed his eyes, making everyone on the battlefield quiver. Luke didn't notice at the time and reopened his eyes.
• Dad, are you feeling okay?
Luke gave a small nod and lowered his gaze to the warriors below. After a long period of stillness, he finally began to talk.
"It appears that the Prilan kingdom has joined the Regle Alliance; this is astonishing; even I was unaware of this."
No really, Luke didn't know anything about this at all. The presence of the Prilan Kingdom in this conflict was completely unexpected. Just what changed it? Is it because of him? Or is it the two major organizations that were not supposed to be in the book? Luke isn't sure anymore.
Luke then turned to face the enemy army's commander. The commander is staring at him with trembling eyes and legs that appear to be about to collapse. Luke only sighed as he observed his battered state.
"Listen, as a fellow commander, I believe it would be better if you order the rest of your troops to retreat. You won't stand up to us, especially if Dark Eye isn't supporting you at the moment."
After that, the commander took a step back and shook his head. His eyes are visibly wide open from shock, and no matter what he does, they will not close.
What does a supposed dead person doing here?
"Y-you... Aren't supposed to be dead?"
The commander then shivered when he saw Luke frowning at him. He feels like he'll die at any moment just by Luke staring at him. He then heard Luke speaking with annoyance.
"I'll count to three, and if you don't all leave, I'll have to contact the big guys in our kingdom who are on standby."
The commander and opposing soldiers all gasped and began to tremble in terror as they stared at Luke, who was staring at them with cold eyes. His eyes are icy and ruthless as if he is judging them. It's so terrifying that some people have passed out from fear.
A person who had died and then resurrected... That is clearly impossible even for this world of magic. It's just impossible.
When they heard Luke start counting, their hearts almost stopped beating.
