( THERES ALWAYS A DOWNSIDE )
A word that he can never wrap his hands around , a role that evades his hands every time. He’s too special to be playing the role of the normal , relatable main hero. So many main characters and heroes were unrelatable as it was ! So many harsh treatments and trainings , so many exhausting treatments , all to perfect himself and still be denied for something that was fiction anyways ! And here Charles was , talking about being a hero like it was nothing. It probably was , he was certain he’d done far more than this dressed up prince had ever done. Why should he get to complain ?!
“ Clothes and quotes only go so far. “ It didn’t matter how much he felt like screaming inside , Vil’s voice remains perfectly calm and controlled. He spares only a brief glance towards the muddied prince at his side. “ You put in the effort , at least. You’re not a hero , but better to try than be a coward. You could have run. “ Or not gotten involved , which would make this less messy. “ A true hero is a hero because the path is not easy. It is a vicious cycle of success and failure , and one of hardships. That might not be the title that you truly want. Perhaps the image of one , you would not be alone in that. “ Many desired to be called a hero after accomplishing one brave or dramatic feat. But that is a success story , not a hero. Still , he wouldn’t QUITE dash that ideal for the prince. Many wanted the admiration and awe of many with the luxury of success and fame , and without the torment heroes endure. “ It takes many trials to be a hero. Not one or two acts. Being a hero isn’t just physical strength. “
A hand hovers close to Charles , though he does not touch the muddied clothing. “ Go get changed. I’ll take care of matters here. “ An easy matter for The Queen , one who was used to taking charge and handling a situation.
