"…I merely asked a question."
Draksis answered in a low voice. Kael, however, did not have a shred of patience in him now.
"It was a dumb question.
One that someone sitting in this Hall shouldn't be asking."
"You—"
Draksis wanted to retort in anger but quickly froze as he saw a portal opening behind Kael and a Dragon's Claw coming out of it.
In an instant, the entire Council Hall widened their eyes in disbelief; even Lavinia was no exception. Draksis stood up, staring at the fiery red claw with a pale face. In an instant, the memory of unquenchable flames burning his arm resurfaced in his head as the Dragon stepped out.
The Giant Dragon looked right at Draksis with his ember eyes, and just then—
"Igni."
Kael called out with a cold, emotionless look on his face.
"I am not with words.
So the moment you feel he is directly or indirectly targeting me,
Burn him."
"Wha…?"
