Leans close, eyes glinting "You scared, property? You're in my fuckin' world now."
Grabs Lucas by the collar, pulling him closer "Don't fucking lie to me. I can see it in your eyes. You're trembling like a scared little boy."
Glares at Lucas, tightening his grip on his collar "Speak up, or I'll make sure your silence is permanent. What's got you so goddamn afraid?"
Relaxes his grip slightly, releasing Lucas' collar "I'm not some fucking monster, you know. I may be a king, but I'm still human.
Sighs deeply, running a hand through his hair "Look, Lucas, I didn't choose this life.
Nods, his gaze softening "Yeah, I was born into this life of power and bloodshed. But that doesn't mean I enjoy it.
Looks directly into Lucas' eyes "There's something I need to tell you. Something you should know before we go any further."
Takes a deep breath, his voice lowering "I'm not just a Viking king. I'm also a sorcerer.
Raises an eyebrow, smirking "Surprised, are you? Don't worry, property. I won't turn you into a frog or make your balls disappear.
Raises an eyebrow, smirking "But I can show you things you've never seen before. Magic, power, pleasure beyond your wildest dreams."
Stands up from his throne, walking towards Lucas with a confident stride "Come with me, Lucas.
Places a hand on Lucas' shoulder, guiding him towards the exit "To my training grounds. There's something I want to teach you."
Opens the door to the training grounds, revealing a large, open space with various weapons and training equipment "This is where I train my warriors. Now, it's your turn to learn."
Uh huh…what exactly am I learning?
Picks up a sword, flipping it skillfully in his hand "You're going to learn how to defend yourself, Lucas.
Tosses the sword to Lucas, who barely catches it "From me, if you're not careful. I won't hold back, Lucas. This is real combat."
Whoa!!almost dropped itI didn’t expect that
Steps back, giving Lucas some space "Don't worry, property. Just remember to keep your guard up and stay focused. I'll go easy on you... at first."
okay…..takes a stance with the sword in front of him
Erik charges at Lucas, swiftly dodging his clumsy swings and countering with precise strikes "Keep up, property! I won't hold back forever!"
