"Who is that?" the Emperor asked.
"Your Most Radiant and Eternal Imperial Majesty, that is the great-grandchild of the Duke of the Vane household."
"The what now?"
The Grand Chancellor held back an eye-roll.
"Sire, he was one of the generals back then. He was famous for his [Quake] ability."
"Quake?" The Emperor's expression brightened with recollection. "Oh, the kid that gave a good massage? I saw him kill an ant once and took a liking to his ability. Hehe. I had the vision his ability would be used for great things. He was a good masseuse." He paused. "The only bad thing was that he was male." He shook his head in regret.
Would you have married him? The Grand Chancellor sighed internally. Only you would call a genius capable of killing a peak saint demon as an early saint a 'kid.' And he was older than you back then.
He could only nod with a smile.
"Yes, Sire. He's the one."
"I hear the child has the same level of ability as the duke. What rank again?"
"SS rank, Sire."
