"I'm only this strong because I'm your son, Father," I said respectfully, bowing to King Leon.
Hearing this, his expression softened a bit. He nodded with a smile, "Owen, your performance today is indeed exceptional."
The Savage King raised his hand, and a few beautiful maidservants brought over a tray of gems and placed it in front of me.
The reward for defeating my opponent was just a tray of gems, while the topic of whether I was qualified to be king was conveniently ignored. I knew very well that he had no intention of giving me the throne at that moment.
But today, I had declared to everyone that I was going to compete for the throne. I had fought Hugh and won, showing everyone my strength. I believed that in the future, some of the savage nobles might consider supporting me.
