Lucius had just left the Beast Exchange Pavilion after his business was concluded when a loud voice suddenly echoed through the street.
"Lucius!"
Lucius stopped and turned around to see the one who shouted his na. He then saw Kaelix Kryndal, who was now rushing toward him in rage.
The crowd around was confused and curious about what was going on and Lucius was a bit annoyed by it, so he mocked Kaelix.
"What do you want now, Kaelix?"
"I was kind enough to let you leave with your dignity intact a few days ago. Yet here you are, barking in the street."
Kaelix, who heard it, imdiately beca angry and pointed at Lucius and shouted.
"Dignity?"
"You humiliated before! So, I'm here to make you pay!"
Without another word, Kaelix began to raise his arm and summon his Thunder Eagle. The massive 3-Star beast appeared while crackling with thunder energy.
Kaelix looked at Lucius and imdiately pointed at him while commanding his beast.
"Thunder Eagle!"
"Use Lightning Dive and finish him!"
Lucius, who saw the incoming Thunder Eagle, didn't flinch. Instead, he was just smiling as he gestured lazily to Liora.
"Liora"
"It's your turn. Show him what happens when soone crosses ."
Liora, who heard it, imdiately beca excited, as this was the ti for her to pay back her humiliation a few days ago. She then stepped forward and flexed her claws.
"Finally! It is ti for to settle the score."
The Thunder Eagle screeched and launched itself into the air before diving toward Lucius with electrified claws.
But unfortunately for it, Liora moved faster and imdiately leapt into the air with her extended claws at ready.
She didn't need a skill. Her strike was precise, aid directly at the eagle's chest, exploiting a weak point she'd observed in their last encounter.
The Thunder Eagle soon let out a screech of pain as its body fell down, crashing to the ground in a cloud of dust. It twitched weakly as it was unable to rise.
Kaelix, who saw the scene, could only open his mouth and shout out loud in disbelief.
"Impossible!"
"How could you take my Thunder Eagle down in one hit?"
Liora only smirked as she looked at Kaelix. She didn't even spare the fallen eagle another glance.
"That was last ti, but now I am different."
Kaelix, who was now panicking, imdiately took out the sa black pill from his spatial ring. He was going to strengthen the Thunder Eagle the sa way before.
But before he could throw it to the Thunder Eagle to eat, Liora already anticipated it and moved toward him and took the pill.
"Not this ti."
She then imdiately used her leg to kick him in the stomach and send him flying back, destroying one of the shops there.
Liora was also not finished with him and before Kaelix could even recover, Liora imdiately rushed toward him and lifted him up by the hand, using only one hand that left his feet dangling helplessly.
Kaelix, who was now being held by Liora, struggled by landing kicked to Liora but it was useless as Liora was a beast and stronger from him. Kaelix could only spat out in anger.
"You... How dare you treat like..."
Before he could finish, Lucius imdiately tightened his grip on his arm, that made Kaelix groan in pain
Liora then turned toward Lucius and controlled her anger but still Lucius could still see it on her face.
"Master, may I end him here, imdiately?"
Lucius watched the scene with a smile. He then crossed his arms and leaned against a nearby pillar.
"No, you cannot."
"We cannot kill here, as much as he deserves it."
Kaelix was a bit relieved after hearing what Lucius said but the mont he heard what Lucius said, he imdiately beca angry.
"Just cut off his hand."
"Let him rember what happens to those who disturb and an example for those who dares to."
Kaelix imdiately tried to reason it as he shouted at Liora.
"No!"
"You can't! I'm from the Kryndal family! You'll regret..."
Before Kaelix could continue, Liora imdiately did what she was told. She raised her sharp claw and swiped it toward Kaelix's hand.
Kaelix's protests turned to screams as his hand was severed in one clean motion. Blood splattered onto the ground, and the onlookers gasped in horror.
Kaelix then fell down as he was trembling while clutching his bleeding arm where his hand had once been.
His face was contorted with rage and agony, and his teeth gritted against the pain. He also looked at Liora and scread in anger.
"You... you'll regret this!"
"My family, the Kryndals, won't let this go unpunished! You'll pay!"
Lucius soon stepped forward and crouched down beside Kaelix. He then brought his face right before Kaelix's tear-streaked face and smirked.
He then mocked Kaelix talking about his family.
"Your family?"
"Do you really think the Kryndals scare ?"
Kaelix was shocked and hearing and seeing that Lucius dared to mock him and his family.
"Let make sothing very clear."
"Your na, your bloodline, your so-called power... it ans nothing to ."
Lucius then reached down and picked Kaelix's severed hand, holding it up for Kaelix to see.
Blood was also dripping from the limp appendage, pooling on the ground. Lucius looked at Kaelix face and smirked.
"See this?"
"This is what happens when you overstep."
"Next ti, Kaelix, it won't just be your hand. The rest of your limbs will pay the price for your foolishness."
Kaelix was pale after seeing Lucius pick up his severed hand. He was about to retort but was kicked by Lucius and it silenced him.
Lucius, who was now satisfied, turned to Liora and put his hand on Liora, who was now prepared to strike Kaelix again if needed.
"Well done, Liora."
"You handled that beautifully."
Liora, who heard it, grinned, showing her sharp teeth and imdiately bowed down to Lucius.
"Thank you, Master."
Lucius then turned to Luna, who stood with her arms crossed. She was also amused after watching the show.
Without a word, Lucius imdiately tossed the severed hand toward her. Luna was a bit surprised to receive it and Lucius imdiately went to her.
"Luna, take care of this. I have plans for it when we return ho.""
Luna, who was now holding the severed hand, began to inspect it before smirking and bowing down to Lucius.
"Of course, Master."
Lucius then gestured for them to follow him. He then turned away from Kaelix and left.
The crowd also began to disperse silently, as they were quite afraid of the trio as they passed them.
Behind them, Kaelix imdiately scread in pain and frustation as he clutched his bleeding hand.
"You'll pay for this, Lucius!"
"My family will crush you for this pain!"
Lucius only chuckled after hearing it and didn't even turn his head back on him.
"Small words."
Liora and Luna, who heard what Lucius said, only smirked as both of them accompanying Lucius back.
