The thick voice, laced with killing intent, rang loud and clear through the hall as all eyes shifted away from the poor human bird that crashed into the table and settled before Zeras and Seena.
Imdiately, Seena’s heart almost stopped in his chest, looking at the Angelia man walking towards them.
She knew well that the Angelia race valued respect for their rules above all else, and what Zeras had just done was break a rule. The result of that might only be one thing: instant disqualification from the events.
But suddenly, she felt cold hands on her shoulder. She turned to the side and looked at Zeras, who had a confident and reassuring smile on his face.
“He called a lightning-stricken bird, and when I retaliated, he slapped . He bullied , bastard!!!” Turuno roared out, like soone who had suffered unrighteously, as the Angelia man walked towards Zeras.
“What do you have to say for yourself, kid?” The Angelia man said as Zeras looked at him from head to toe and then pointed to his shoulder, where the cat was gently licking its paw but stopped when it saw Zeras pointing at it before suddenly letting out a cry of pain.
“EEOW!”
“And what does the cat have to do with anything?” The man said as Zeras’s face imdiately changed.
“The cat? The cat you say? Can’t you see, sir, that this is a void cat!? A sacred beast of your race?” Zeras asked, pointing to Fluffy, who seed able to read Zeras’s mind.
“But he’s only a cat and can’t be listened to, shall we? So what if one of these two, who are your race and were also here, were able to testify against you? That would an I’m telling the truth, wouldn’t it?” Zeras asked as Turuno’s eyes flashed, and he smiled confidently.
“Of course it would, but if they say no, then that would an you’re a bloody liar and should be sent out!!?” He roared out, snickering to himself. Of course, he knew well that Lara and Gara witnessed what truly happened and knew well that Zeras was framing him. Besides, even if what Zeras was saying was the truth, how could his own race testify against him? It was a clear impossibility in all ways.
But all Zeras did was smile confidently before turning to look at the alien boys and girls, then he focused on the girl as he bent to her eye level. He could see the confident smile on the girl’s face as she looked at him with eyes that called Zeras stupid.
‘Perhaps. He thought I would fall for his beauty? But how can beauty blind from lying to my own race?’ Lara thought with a confident smile as Zeras looked directly into her eyes.
And suddenly, the blue shining dots in Zeras’s eyes all suddenly began rotating as Lara suddenly stood rigid where she stood.
“Your elder tried to take a swipe at my cat’s face, didn’t he?” Zeras asked as the entire hall suddenly grew extrely quiet. Of course, the crowd was able to tell what truly went on, and the question was bizarrely a strange one.
“Yes. He did!” The reply that ca sent the other male, Gara, retreating in shock, and everyone stood dumbly looking at Zeras, including Seena, who looked at Zeras in shock. But the one whose soul almost drained from his face was none other than Turuno, who seed to have aged a few years…
“WHAT!!!” He scread out in shock as Zeras stood upright, the revolving vortex of shining crystals in his eyes reducing before they ca to a stop.
“I hope that clarifies the truth, doesn’t it, Mr. chicken face!?” Zeras said, winking at Turuno, who almost coughed up blood in anger.
“Daring to take an action against one of the sacred beasts of our race and blatantly lying about not doing it. You deserve to be executed for your cris, but due to respect for the events that are currently happening right now. You will be shown rcy by getting banned from ever entering the grounds of our Angelia race ever again!!!” The Angelia man roared out in anger as everyone’s face changed.
They all knew that the Angelia race is the place where the Three sects organize the prodigies’ war event most of the ti. Getting forever banned from the clan would an never being able to partake in the Prodigies War events eternally!
“NOOOO! PLEASE, HEAR OUT!!! HE’S THE BLOODY LIAR!!!” Turuno scread out to no avail as the Angelia man snorted coldly.
“Escort them out!!!” The voice was absolute, and with screams of grief and a crazy amount of curses, the trio were escorted out of the ground.
“We’re very sorry to have your cat attacked. You have done a great job thwarting its attempts, showing us you have a good cat. Co to the front of the table and get exclusive attention…” The Angelia man said as he nudged for Zeras to co forward to the table, and imdiately Seena headed to the front, quickly collecting a badge of acceptance, and they imdiately moved to the next level, all without having to wait in the overly long queue.
As they arrived befroe the girnomous doors werea flight of spiral steps could be seen going up higher and higher.
Senna released all the breath that she had stored in her chest as she looked at Zeras who was swaggering up the steps, an extra lips in his walk.
“You! That was too dangerous, we could have gotten disqualified before the events even started!!!” Senna roared out loud in shock and fury as Zeras turned to her with a raised eyebrow.
“But we’re already On our way to the top of the tower, sothing that should have taken an extra three to four hours after now.
If you ask , I think that was our best move to quickly moving on….” Zeras replied as he continued up the stairs and Senna looked at him dumbly.
