"Or else what?" Aron interrupted calmly, his tone steady yet tinged with irritation.
The lady froze, clearly taken aback by his audacity. then, in the blink of an eye, she vanished from his sight.
Boom!
Aron barely had time to react before the golden-armored woman reappeared in front of him, blocking the punch of the furious maid who'd just tried to cave his head in.
The shockwave alone sent a rush of air that nearly knocked him off balance.
If that hit had landed… yeah, he'd be a red stain on the floor by now.
The maid crumpled to the ground, head bowed so low it hit the floor with a thud. ""F-Forgive me, Your Highness! I was blind! Please take my head for my insolence!"
"Leave," the golden-armored lady said coldly, her voice carrying the weight of command.
The maid scrambled up, trembling. "As you wish, Your Highness." She shot Aron a glare so venomous it could've melted steel before scurrying away.
