"Clang!!!"
As the bell-like sound of metal echoed through the sky above the Franszel estate, shock waves spread across the courtyard like waves, shaking the ground of the Franszel residence.
Many people were unavoidably startled by the astonishing noise, rushing one by one to the courtyard and encountering a battlefield riddled with cracks.
Reiger and Liz had already separated and were standing at a significant distance apart, each in a standoff, one wielding a knife and the other holding an unsheathed golden sword, facing each other.
The breathing of the master and servant was still steady and rhythmic, showing no signs of fatigue from the fierce battle they had just endured.
In such a situation, murmurs started reaching the ears of Reiger and Liz.
These were the discussions of the Franszel family members who had gathered upon hearing the disturbance.
"Isn't that Lord Brilliant?"
"When did Lord Brilliant return?"
"Hadn't he gone on a trip?"
"So, he is back?"
