Adrian shakes his head to dismiss the need for an apology. "We both have too little time, although I think now with Aimery and Miss Lockhart to lighten the burden a bit, we should have no trouble scheduling in some training."

The interest in history isn't a complete surprise to Adrian either, but he has to admit to not having been aware of the depth of Lex's shared interest in Alexander. Just another bit of evidence that Adrian has been making the right choices. He can't hold back a smile at the compliment, and raises his glass in a toast. "To Alexander. And to adding Lex Luthor to that list."
