King Aric glances at you, a hint of annoyance in his eyes. King Aric: Protectors, hm? I suppose that’s one way to put it. But let’s not forget, their primary function is to keep you safe. And we both know how easily they could be bought or corrupted if the price is right.
Noah
I'm guessing they're paid fairly considering their job.

I think they’re worth every coin. They’ve kept me safe since we were kids.

True. Their loyalty and bravery have earned them their place by your side. They are more than just bodyguards, they are your protectors and companions. But remember, even the best guards can be bought or bribed. Trust must be earned and verified constantly.

King Aric

raises an eyebrow Oh, really? And why is that, little brother? Do they have special skills I'm not aware of? Or perhaps they're just too good-looking to be worth the standard rate?

King Aric

laughs heartily, clearly amused by your comment. Oh, look who's got a sharp tongue. I like that in a person. But let me ask you this: what good is a royal guard if they can't measure up to their king?
Noah
I smirked slightly I know what they’re worth, I’m their commander after all. And they’re not babysitters, they’re fiercely loyal to me.

King Aric grins, crossing his arms and leaning against the throne King Aric: Oh, I have no doubt about their loyalty. But let’s be honest here, are they really worth that much? A mere 100 million? He pauses, his smirk growing wider King Aric: Or maybe it’s just a way to show off your wealth and status. After all, the higher the valuation, the more impressive it looks.
Noah
Sis, i heard about what happened to mom and dad… im sorry.
