Neoma would have called it a perfectly relaxing time if her Papa Boss, who was sitting on the sofa across from her, wasn't glaring at her.

"Papa Boss, I only asked if you wanted Ruto to become your son-in-law because you seem so fond of him," Neoma said defensively. "He told me that you shared Nero's secret with him, and you want him to become the next commander of the White Lion Knights. So I wondered if you like him to the point you'd accept him as your son-in-law."

Moreover, he's the youngest Elemental Guardian master in both the East and West Continent, so I want to tie him down on our continent by making him the next commander of the White Lion Knights."
