Before he could even touch the hem of Nyx’s clothes, there was a loud bang. Valen was pinned to the ground, his neck twisted and his arm held behind him, his face covered in dirt, letting out a terrified scream. “Aghhh-”

Nyx was startled and took half a step back.

In the instant before she could react, Felix and Theon had exchanged glances, and Theon directly took action, decisively subduing this suspicious intruder.

His carefully styled appearance was a mess. Valen only felt a sharp pain on his face, which he was so proud of, and every joint in his body ached. He didn’t care that Nyx was present and how embarrassing it was, crying out in pain.

Felix’s expression was cold as he looked down at him.

Few people were so bold as to try something on his territory.

Felix asked, “Where are your accomplices? Call them out.”

Valen trembled. “W–what accomplices?”

He wasn’t a bad guy. He just wanted to meet Nyx.

Felix frowned and looked at Theon.

Theon understood and increased the pressure on Valen’s neck. They then heard the captive scream even louder.

Felix was unmoved and coldly commented, “The one hiding behind the tree earlier, he’s your accomplice, right? He’s clearly much stronger than you, both in terms of alertness and vigilance. You’re not on the same level.”

The one who had been hiding had at least S–level strength, while the one in front of him seemed to be a weak and incompetent waste.

Judging by his attire, he seemed to be a noble.

Felix thought, ‘A noble shouldn’t have the guts to provoke him, so he must be after Nyx.

He searched his memory and quickly recognized Valen as the guardian that the system had matched with Nyx before.

The threat to his past position triggered a sudden crisis, intensifying his hostility toward Valen.

Felix’s words provoked Valen, his face flushed red. He was panting heavily, thinking, ‘I am a noble. How can I be compared to that guy who works for money and does shady things?

“The Marshal must be jealous that I could win Nyx over! That’s why he was saying such harsh words to me!”
