Chapter 18 I Know My Daughter Best
“Your servant, Tommy Lewis, the head of the Templar Regiment, is at your service, My Lord!”
“At your service, My Lord!” the few hundred members of the Templar Regiment echoed in unison.
That gave Jared a great shock, for he wasn’t aware that he had such a status.
“Uh… H-Have you gotten the wrong person? I’m not your overlord!” He shook his head profusely.
“The person wearing the Dragon Ring is the overlord of the Dragon Sect. There’s no mistake about it!” Tommy asserted.
At that remark, a fragment of memory flashed across Jared’s mind.
Back when I was in prison, Draco kept insisting that he was the overlord of the Dragon Sect. Later, he gave me a ring. It looks like it’s precisely because of the ring that Tommy claims that I’m the overlord of the Dragon Sect!
“You mean it’s because of this ring I’m wearing?” Jared inquired after slipping the ring off.
“Yes. That’s the Dragon Ring of the Dragon Sect. According to the rules of the Dragon Sect, whoever wears it is the overlord of the Dragon Sect!” Tommy explained, lifting his head and staring at the ring in the man’s hand.
Feeling a tad discomforted to see them all kneeling, Jared waved a hand. “Please get to your feet first.”
“Thank you, My Lord!”
Tommy and the members of the Templar Regiment all stood up.
“I’ll be honest with you. I’m really not your overlord, for someone gifted me this ring. You’re truly gotten the wrong person!” Jared clarified.
“We only acknowledge the Dragon Ring, not the person himself. Since you’re in possession of the Dragon Ring, you’re our overlord!” Tommy replied respectfully.
Hearing that, Jared was speechless. It seems that Draco deliberately passed his position to me!
“Are you all members of the Dragon Sect?” he queried.
