"Quick, someone!" If the first call was casual, the second one from Nyx was clearly urgent and serious, as if danger was near.

Outside, hurried footsteps echoed as the patrolling guards rushed to the scene. Hearing the approaching noise, Banon froze, as if struck by lightning.

He suddenly realized that his actions had been sneaky and underhanded. If the Duke's Mansion people caught him, not only would it be hard to escape, but he would also lose all face.

The orange cat, who had just suffered a defeat, could no longer think about revenge. Covered in wounds, he quickly turned and fled, moving as fast as he could.

His speed was so fast that Nyx didn't react in time, but the little white cat, with sharp eyes, shot forward like an arrow, landing from above and stepping firmly on the orange cat's tail.

"Yowl!" Banon cried out in pain, losing all dignity.

As the guards entered at Nyx's call, they were greeted with the sight of the white cat, who had the domineering dark hair symbol on his forehead.

He stood tall, full of authority, his fur shiny and healthy, almost glowing, no longer resembling a mere beast, but the king of all animals. The orange cat, who had been subdued beneath him, appeared much rounder and bulkier in comparison, but cowered like a mouse.

The scene left everyone stunned for a moment, but after the initial awe, confusion and doubt followed.

The fully armored guards, with swords strapped to their sides, vigilantly scanned their surroundings. They found nothing unusual in the study and looked at Nyx in confusion.

They thought, 'Did the lady call us here to handle these two cats fighting?'

When they heard Nyx's urgent call, they thought someone had infiltrated with spies or assassins, disturbing Nyx in the study. They had prepared themselves for a fierce battle, only to be confronted with this.

The contrast was so great that the leader of the guards couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, letting out a breath of relief. It wasn't a big deal after all. Better this than a real crisis.

Everyone in the mansion knew that Nyx was the one closest to Nyx's heart. She was treated as delicately as if she were a fragile treasure. Nothing was more important than ensuring her safety and peace.

While the animal fightings weren't something to be alarmed about, the cats with sharp claws and wild tempers could indeed be dangerous.

A few guards cautiously approached and reached out to separate the fighting cats, to prevent them from accidentally harming Nyx in the heat of their struggle.

"Wait," Nyx spoke just as they moved, "The white one is mine."
