The king sighed and then smiled at Lukas. "Congratulations, Lukas. Your painting is wonderful, and I am going to introduce to those people, just as I promised," he said.

Lukas smiled. "Really? Thank you, Your Majesty! he said.

The king kept his seemingly kind smile. "Now, Lukas, you do not have to thank me at all! Your works are outstanding, there are few paintings I know that could be at this one's level, and I have know a fair amount of paintings throughout my long life," he said.

Lukas chuckled. "Well, Your Majesty, I still should thank you for your compliments and confidence," he said.

The king nodded his head. "Well, now you may go. Tomorrow, I shall introduce you to the people that I told you about," he said.

Lukas raised his brow. '...That fast?' he wondered.
