WHEN Kiho raised his hand, a thick wall of ice sprouted from the ground to protect him from Lahara's attack. A black spear-shaped energy pierced through and broke his ice wall in an instant. He already expected that so he geared up for a physical attack this time.
On the other hand, Lahara looked like she was ready to attack, too.
They were about to clash against each other when a harsh gush of wind literally stopped them from moving.
He felt a sting on his cheek the same time he saw Lahara's cheek bleed from a long cut.
Then, all of a sudden, Captain Sherwood appeared between him and Lahara.
[Dammit.]
"Stop," Captain Sherwood commanded in a calm yet composed voice while looking back and forth between him and Lahara. "If you don't, I will arrest both of you for threatening the royal family. How dare you fight in the palace when you know that His Majesty and Her Royal Highness are both in the throne room right now?"
That cleared his head.
