An arrow flew through the air, piercing through the domain of ice and frost before striking the deathly ice blade with unerring
accuracy.
The ice blade and arrow shattered almost simultaneously, sending shards of ice and wood clattering onto the ground below.
"City Lord, save me!" Fox yelled in a panicked voice immediately.
"Michael?" Urien turned toward the oncoming black horse-drawn carriage in the distance.
There was a tall and broad figure standing in the carriage, and it was none other than the lord of Chaos City, Michael. He put down the black bow in his hand, and looked at Urien as he said, "Urien, I don't know what happened here, but I hope you can calm down. Please do not kill people for trivial reasons in Chaos City, especially representatives of the dragon race."
Fox heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that. Michael's words were more useful than anyone else's in Chaos City.
He's the city lord? Isn't he Boss' friend that came to the restaurant a few nights ago? Yabemiya stared at Michael with a shocked expression. She was stunned that Mag was friends with the city lord.
Urien turned to Michael with a smile, and asked, "Michael, do you think you'll be able to stop me if I want to kill someone?"
"Within three meters, no one can stop you aside from Novan." Michael shook his head as the horse-drawn carriage came to a gradual stop.
"No. Within three meters, even Novan isn't fast enough to stop me." Urien looked at Michael with a confident smile, and said, "This is my absolute domain. I can kill anyone I want in it, and no one's magic can be faster than mine."
Fox had just heaved a sigh of relief when a horrified expression appeared on his face again. If even City Lord Michael couldn't save him, then no one could!
He was absolutely petrified. He was suddenly regretting attacking that little girl just then. If he could have repressed his temper just a little bit, then he wouldn't have landed in this perilous situation.
Michael looked at Urien for a long while before heaving a forlorn sigh as he said, "Novan may not be fast enough, but if Alex were still alive, then perhaps he would be faster than you."
"But he's already dead, isn't he?" A forlorn expression appeared on Urien's face as he sighed. "What a pity."
"Indeed, it is." Michael nodded with a wistful look.
All of the giant dragons and demons wore complex expressions on their faces upon hearing Alex's name. All of them harbored mixed emotions toward that legendary figure.
Actually... he's dead, but he's also still alive. Mag wanted to tell them that, but it would clearly be unwise to do so.
However, he was struck by a sense of exhilaration upon hearing their high praise for Mag Alex. So that was how powerful he'd been at his peak. Could he have been even faster than Urien in his own absolute domain?
"So, I still get to decide whether I kill him, right?" Urien resumed his frosty expression as he looked at Michael.
"Yes." Michael nodded as he glanced down at the deathly pale Fox. He then looked at Urien, and shook his head as he said, "But I know you won't kill him. At least, you won't kill him today."
"And why is that?" Urien was slightly intrigued.
"My arrow just then could pierce through your domain, but if you were determined to kill him, he would still be dead by now." Michael smiled as he turned to Amy, and said, "Besides, it's not a good thing to kill people in front of children, right?"
"I disagree. If you want to live in this world, then you'll have to kill people sooner or later, so I'm not worried about showing my disciple what it looks like to kill someone. In fact, I believe that she'll be even better at killing than I am in the future. She has a very righteous heart, and that has determined her future path. I believe she'll be an even more splendid magic caster than I am." Urien shook his head, and a sharp ice spike over a meter in length instantly appeared in his hand, which he thrust down violently toward Fox's eye.
"No!" Fox screamed, and he closed his eyes involuntarily at the sight of the oncoming ice spike.
Michael also narrowed his eyes slightly, but he didn't intervene.
Meanwhile, Mag covered Amy's eyes with his hands. Urien wanted her to see what it looked like to kill someone, but Mag didn't. Even if she were going to uphold justice, that would be something for her to do in the future. She was still a child, so he didn't want her to be tainted by the sight of slaughter.
The ice spike fell, but it didn't fall upon Fox's eye. Instead, it pierced through his right hand, and nailed it firmly into the ground.
"Argh!!!"
Fox let loose a howl of agony, and his entire body trembled with pain.
Urien withdrew his ice spike, and looked into Fox's eyes as he delivered a menacing warning. "I'm not going to kill you, but that's not because I don't dare to kill you. If I want to kill you, no one can stop me. If you dare to try and hurt Amy again, there will no more Frost Dragons left." "Y-yes." The deathly pale Fox nodded with a horrified expression. In that instant, he truly felt as if he was going to die. The ice spike was aimed at his eye the entire time, and Urien only seemed to change his mind at the very last moment, driving the spike into his hand instead. Otherwise, he would already be dead.
Furthermore, he knew that Urien was serious. He didn't say that he would be no more, but instead, the Frost Dragons would be no more.
Urien had always been very proficient at committing mass genocide. At the very least, there was no one on the entire Norland Continent that was more adept in that art than him.
The Frost Dragons were extremely powerful, but it was never a good idea to offend such a powerful 10th-tier magic caster, especially when he was also renowned for being a madman.
Fox's entire body was gripped by crippling fear. Who would have thought that his rash actions against a half-elf girl would incur risk for the survival of the entire Frost Dragon race?
This restaurant is not to be messed with.
All of the demons and giant dragons looked at Mag and his daughter with meaningful expressions. All of them had 10th-tier powerful beings among their respective races, but if Urien and Krassu were to join forces, then the tragedy of the ogres would most likely be repeated.
All of them made a mental note to themselves that when they went back to their respective races, they had to caution everyone against messing with half-elves if any of them ever went to Chaos City!
Master Urien is so powerful! Yabemiya was well and truly stunned as she stared at Urien. To think that even a powerful giant dragon would be completely at his mercy.
As expected of the man who ranks at the top of the list of magic casters who aren't to be messed with; Master Urien is just as intimidating as ever. Surely no one would dare to cause trouble for the restaurant after this.
"Alright, Little Amy, the bad man has been taken care of. You don't need to worry about anything with Master by your side." Urien turned to Amy with a smile, and said, "But remember, if you're sure that someone is your enemy, never have any mercy on them. Only a dead person will pose no threat to you. Of course, this man is not worthy for me to consider him my enemy, so I'll leave him to you."
