Kael considered the offer for only a moment. He had already been contemplating whether it was okay to sell off the statue in order to raise funds for the shipyard, and this mission presented the perfect opportunity. With a recent breakthrough to Tier-9, the idea of confronting such powerful enemies no longer intimidated him.
He stood up, a determined look on his face as he spoke. "Consider it done, Your Majesty. I'll take the mission."
The Queen gave him a nod of approval, but her expression remained unreadable. "I trust you'll handle it with the same efficiency you've demonstrated in the past, my shadow."
Kael left her chambers, determined to make this mission successful. He was confident about taking out Rowena either way, but his main goal was the King Clown.
As Kael returned to his room, he was surprised to find Adam waiting for him, looking flustered and comically distressed.
"Kael!" Adam cried out dramatically, his hands clutching his chest. "I'm doomed!"
