[ Sizhui stares at the network name.
Stares at the message.
For like 0.2 second but still enough to sigh softly.
What went wrong now? ]
I will do my best, Hanguang-jun. Although I hardly need to tell you that if they are wronged, it would not be easy for him to stay away.

[ ... he hasn't thought about that, yet. ]
To be righteous and protect the weak are things he would give most of himself, to do. Though I think if you, and Miss Wen, and I are safe, he will not lose stability. Still... with this army, I will try to ask him what he thinks he can do to protect them.

In a world where he understood weakness and strength both, no? And leading an army needs a goal.
Hanguang-jun, how can you ever ask much of me, when you have given me everything?
[ A confused moment because, wait, isn't that how things are supposed to be? Owing the previous generation for your life, and everything in it?? Infinitely? ]
I do not think of it as debt, Hanguang-jun, only that whatever you may ask, direct, or tell me to do, I will do my best to do.

And now you are far dearer to me than any such time.
But is it not useful while one is still learning, to avoid making mistakes that others will have to fix?
Am I overly obedient?
... and also, are you past learning?
... and also, are you past learning?
Hanguang-jun, how can that be? You were not that much older than I am now when you and senior Wei had to deal with the Xuanwu of slaughter, I have neither the skill nor the strength to match that.
Though I am doing my best to have more of both day by day! But I still could not compare.
[ Sizhui is fully aware how much better his dad is, thank you very much. ]

Thank you, Hanguang-jun.
[ Not sure why this, and given the ways that Hanguang-jun has followed his heart as long as Sizhui has memories of him, not entirely convinced, but he also doesn't want to argue... and also, Hanguang-jun spoke of himself at Sizhui's age, which is different from what Sizhui knows. ]
Now I just need to make sure my skills are good enough for where my heart wants me to go.
