Lee never knew a way how to politely tell a woman she was completely nuts. Apparently Lady Panello thought an overlord of sorts has sent Lee to target specifically Seren. Her conclusion was laughable and unexpected, but Lee could use it to his advantage.
All of the sudden he felt there was a chance to stretch out their interaction for a day. It was slim, almost utopian, but if there was one, he had to take it.
His countenance relaxed, and he slightly tilted his head, heartily smiling at her. He asked, "Why don't you make an educated guess?"
"Don't you play games with me, boy!" She snorted in return, bud didn't move, giving Lee another idea.
"You do realize I have the ability to deal with one elemental lord?" He said, deliberately choosing one elemental lord instead of an elemental lord in casual manner, making it seem like it an unintentional or careless slip of a tongue.
