Waver furiously grabbed hold of Iskandar's cloak and yelled, "You bastard! How dare you make me lose face in front of so many people! You need to understand, I am the master!"

Iskandar scratched his ear with his thumb, feeling irritated by Waver's constant nagging since he left the stage. Repeating the same phrase over and over made Iskandar's ears almost numb. He grabbed hold of Waver's sleeve and lifted him high, staring at him with a pair of tiger-like eyes.

Waver held the book tightly in his hands, feeling a bit scared as he saw Iskandar lifting him high. He stammered, "What...what are you doing? You, you, you want to kill your master?"

Compared to his height and physique, Iskandar truly had a more commanding presence. Waver, trying to assert himself, said with a fierce tone, "You, you, you shouldn't forget, I have a command seal!"

Iskandar dismissed his Noble Phantasm and stood on the ground. With a firm "clap" sound, he threw Waver onto the ground. He looked at Waver and said, "You arrogant guy, always talking nonstop. Is the reason you're participating in this war only to prove your own worth?"

As Waver lay on the ground, he turned over and gazed upon Iskandar's serious expression. A feeling of unease washed over him, but he pushed it aside and asked, "So what? Do you want to teach me a lesson?"

Iskandar, the king of conquerors, looked at Waver with a confused expression and said, "I am not a teacher. I have no interest in teaching you. I find it strange, with so many magnificent mountains and rivers waiting for you to explore and conquer, why do you limit yourself to such a small world? Don't you find it too narrow and suffocating?"

Waver sat up, looking at Iskandar with determination in his eyes, "So you still want to teach me a lesson? You don't understand. What small world! That's my whole world! I am a magus! Changing the meaningless aristocratic bloodline theory, to be a great magus praised and remembered by the world is my wish!"

Waver raised his hand and revealed his command seal, "Do you still want to teach me? Do you want to experience the small world you mentioned and see how much restraint it has on you? If you have a wish, if you're afraid to leave early, then listen to me, listen to your Master! Understand your own position."

Iskandar remained silent, he looked down at Waver, this awkward, arrogant, and high-spirited teenager who was bound by a small world. It was like throwing a frog into a well, only able to see the narrow sky above, but unaware of the vastness of the universe.

Suddenly...

"Boom----!!!!!!"

A massive explosion erupted in the distance, the firelight casting an eerie glow on Iskandar and Waver's profiles.

Iskandar moved closer to Waver, and Waver felt a twinge of fear, but his arrogant spirit would not allow him to be dominated by his own servant.

Iskandar grabbed Waver's collar, holding him like a small wildcat, and stared at him for a long time. He then smiled, showing his white teeth, and spoke in a very serious tone, "The only thing that this king fear is that these legs will not reach the end of the starry sea. Do you understand? How small is the world inside your heart?"

"Is that all you have to say, Rider? Are you simply trying to mock me? I will use my command seal to teach you a lesson. A servant should never talk back to their master," Waver shouted, baring his teeth and claws as he reached out to grab Iskandar's beard.

Iskandar laughed, unfazed. "Go ahead, but the first night hasn't ended yet," he said. With a swift motion, he summoned his Noble Phantasm once more and rode the thunder, passing through the sky.

"You son of a bitch! Listen to me for a moment! Don't grab me like this, it's too embarrassing," shouted Waver, struggling against Iskandar's grasp. "Do you hear me? It's too embarrassing!"
