After hearing Noah words Travis's expression turned cool. "Noah... you've been exiled, so you might not understand. But for me, the eldest son and heir of the Elensar family, a family built on military power and border control. Strength is everything. Even a normal unit test is something I have to win. That's what my family expects. What my father expects." His jaw tightened slightly. Then he continued to talk.
"I already disappointed him by ranking third at the start of the year instead of first. I need to win this and make up for it."
Noah listened to the whole thing with a flat expression.
'Why did I even ask? I thought he'd just say it doesn't matter, just tell me if you're in or out. But he actually gave me the whole story. I should have seen that coming. Haah.' Noah felt bad for asking this.
"Alright," Noah said. "I understand why you want to win."
'Nobles and their weird obsession or should I say weird fetish for being on top,' he thought, shaking his head internally.
