"Bastard!" Haley immediately turned to Ainsley and said in an urgent voice. "Do something else!"
But Ainsley just stood there in complete silence. Sweat trickled down his wrinkled face — something he'd never seen before. After all, Ainsley was his butler, someone who had reached Ascendant rank a long time ago.
"My young master, please... do something else," he replied, voice certain yet filled with worry. "That guy's stronger than me, maybe even as a rival as one of the Clan's Grand Elders."
He hadn't expected things to go so badly. He never even thought there could be someone stronger from some random Order.
Then he asked in a deep tone, staying cautious, already prepared to flee at any moment.
''Who are you?''
Silence.
"How funny. Where was your attitude before? Only now you notice me because I revealed a bit of power?"
"I didn't expect someone so stupid and lowly to belong to a so-called Mighty Clan. Maybe the Wolfe Clan really is heading toward decline."
