"You should stop!" Aquitius uttered in a loud voice.
Maxim turned to Aquitius and said, "Are you favoring an outsider over your important guest?"
"It has nothing to do with favoring anyone," the sixth replied.
"Oh! I see, now. So you are taking his side because you want him to marry your daughter," Maxim remarked in a loud voice so everyone present in the hall could hear.
"I am not stopping you alone. I am stopping both of you," the sixth said in a calm voice. "You two should talk this out, just like any other responsible adult would."
"Adult?!" Maxim scoffed out loud and laughed at the sixth while glancing at Zach. "How does this kid look like an adult to you?"
He furrowed his brows and said, "I can crush him under my feet like I would crush the worms."
Zach raised his brows and said, "And then you eat those worms?"
"...!"
Zach smirked and said, "That's what fishes eat, right?"
