Leonardo’s men had no disrespect for Charles’s men, provoking them repeatedly until they were wholly infuriated.

Three gunshots rang out from downstairs, prompting Leonardo’s men to rush upstairs to report it.

However, he quickly noticed something amiss. Gradually, he felt a loss of strength, and his head began spinning.
