Eustace heard the old man's words, but he casually brushed it off.

Instead, he focused on strategizing the most effective spell to use in the impending confrontation. He was contemplating using his potent Aurora's Beam and assorted spell combinations.

"My name is of no consequence. Know only that you stand before an Archbishop of the Church of the Fortune Goddess." He declared, his tone laden with the aura of holiness.
