Apparently not 420734fdc5 expecting to 0a7f33856b be praised 1f43fbb640 for something 8db5eb127e like that, 2cf9d0107d Joshua’s blue f572ed54d4 eyes went 35a114b510 wide.b607e9120eba50eb

He might be 2e4c65ce9c holding a pen 631f4e66cf more often than d1acc63873 a sword these 4ebb011bc9 days, but the 17914fa587 duke is still 3b9eb57337 a bold, rebellious c72d3942fc warrior at heart.6bc1daad65c0cddf

He prefers 7e04f1b033 unexpected punches cb599651b1 over dull, d6c73deaf7 conventional arguments, 98a83abed2 and when 5b107c2a2c it comes eb918b9af9 to revenge e2e1e0523e and retribution, 4b4f206416 no one 0b5a3a8fd7 is more 1ee6ebc640 serious than b2c2431511 him.96588b6217dcdf72

If anything, 50e3ed808b he would’ve c1856c5057 been angrier c4c3c4cffc if Joshua 977e95877a had just f125aab4fe sat there db3a2a34d8 and taken 81a327537d it.4ba56bdc6c85f7d6

Just like Joshua feared, 4e3dc37c67 Kallios would’ve snapped, saying 9569e0e867 things like, “You’re a 6c47417dc8 direct descendant of the d67bae7f33 ducal house and can’t 9a06fc3d6b even handle punks like 9d01fe2515 them?” and then told d7e793eac7 him to drop out 2438b7a640 of the academy immediately.4ab5c9fa140311c0
