Cynthia couldn't believe what she had just seen. She had been incredibly sure that she had the ability to stop any of the two beasts from dying. After all, she was many levels higher than both of them. Cynthia had also looked at the attack and saw the same thing as the bear. It just looked like a weak and unassuming punch.

In actuality, she was even ready to intervene on behalf of Gravis as soon as the bear attacked him. She knew that he probably had some incredible Battle-Strength, which was also the reason why he was the Empress' present. So, the fight should have been either even or slightly in favor of Gravis.

But she hadn't expected such a one-sided slaughter. This hadn't even been a fight. It was basically just a weak slap, and the bear exploded. This whole fight had caught her completely off-guard.

Yet, her reasoning quickly returned, and she felt incredibly nervous and fearful. Her King had said that Gravis wasn't allowed to kill any beast. This meant that she had failed in her duty!

Gravis saw her mood go from surprised to fearful and laughed a bit. "Calm down, Cynthia," Gravis said. "The Red King has said that you should TRY to keep me from killing beasts. He has dealt with me for a while, and he knows that you can't do much."

Cynthia was still nervous, and her nervousness transformed into anger. "Shut up!" she snapped. "You were not supposed to kill anyone!"

Gravis furrowed his brows. "Oh? I'm not supposed to do something?" he asked with a cold voice. "You're nice, but don't forget our relationship. You're a temporary guard, and I'm just some commodity to you."

Cynthia was still overwhelmed with anger and nervousness. She hadn't failed a task yet, and she feared that this could have dire consequences. "Shut up! We will return to the Red King right now!" she ordered.

Gravis huffed. "So, that's your true face, huh? The whole being nice thing was only an act to siphon information from me."
