The eyes of the champion of War's domain in ure of the old arht thehall

A deafening silence took over the entire hall, leaving only the slightly hastened breath of the dozens of observing cultivators to be heard by those who had a keen hearing After as only an hour of peace and quiet froroups of cultivators were finally starting to beco that could prevent that, they observed in silence

Being aware of the belligerent nature of War's domain, no one present had expected this encounter to be resolved peacefully, and yet, contrary to everyone's expectations, the champion of War's doold arlected teeth, and while pointing his finger at the toothpick-shaped beverage stuck in between his opponent's fingers, he said, ”Do you mind? That's my drink”

The warrior in shi+ny armor did not respond Instead, he stared at the soldier while her companion, the fenation, ”Do you need me to explain to you how to use yourof a long tirade was interrupted by the sole next to her, just like a standing lamp She quietly placed a hand onto her friend's shoulder, causing her to fold her arainst the back of her seat, and quiet down

Following the wohed in disappointlance at the other table, the soldier turned to look back at the heroic figure that was still standing in front of hi s froet back to your seat, unless you have anything to say” As he spoke, the full power of his cultivation at the stage of true chaed as a layer of invisible s sih heat

Neither his tone, nor his words see hero, who instead, kept staring in silence

”This is why I dislike you, champions of Morality Always unaware of consequences” Said the soldier before turning to look at the e back at him

Naturally, the soldier did not care for the waitress, and not even once had the thought of killing her out of mercy appeared in his mind And yet, he was not unaware of how humans were treated in Horror's domain It was clear to hi to her than his actions would have-so instead of pressing the matter any further, he said to the waitress, ”I have still not gotten my drink yet”

The waitress bowed her head politely towards both the soldier and the heroic figure that was standing next to her, and took off for the kitchen, leaving the two cultivators alone

As the waitress walked away, the soldier picked the glass up, and brought it to his lips With an al for only a taste of its content to slide into his old walk back to his table Pleased by the taste, he gulped the rest down, and with his elbow pressed against the table's surface, he raised the glass up to his eyes-level with the intention of ordering another

Right before he could call the waitress back, however, the soldier noticed that the rihtly chipped ”Oh” he uttered in cold disappointlass back on the table Then, in a motion that seeold arun, and without even looking, he pointed it at the waitress, and pressed the trigger

In just an instant, a flash of light forun's barrel, which exploded in a thousand tiny strands of essence that carefully avoided any object that stood between the soldier and his target, only to land on the waitresses' body before anyone could even realize as happening The thud created by her body hitting the ground resounded throughout the entire restaurant, bringing both the custoold armor to a halt

The hand of the champion of Morality instinctively reached for the handle of his sword, pulling it out of its scabbard just enough to uncover a blade made entirely out of pure starmetal From the small cracks between the plates that formed his armor oozed an oppressive mixture of emotional aura and essence, which quickly formed a film around his body a few inches thick

Siun he was holding, while reaching for a e It was clear that a clash was unavoidable
